ROGERS IMPROVING.
A Baz0O Reporter Calls on Him
What He Said.

A BAzoo reporter called at the
home Of g. W. Rogers yesterday eve
ming. Among the sore to whom the
reporter s1plied but one had any def.
mite idea as to where Howard street
was. II required fully two hours to
locate the mans home at No. sos.
Knocking at the door of an humble
little cottage, the reporter was kindly
admitted to the rocm where the
wounded man lay swathed in blan.
kets.
Asked as to his condition he
replied tina. he was feeling
quite sore-a result naturally to be
expected from the nuure of the
stabs. 81 think there is
no doubt but what I'll pull through
alright" he said, though I'm liable
to be confined to my bed for a long
season. / feel an unnatural hitch in
nv breathing that pains me very
severely, especially at that particular
part where my left lung was pene
trated. The doctor told me that had
the wound been in the least deeper,
there would have been absolutely no
chance for my recovery. There are
eight different cuts in my body. two
of which are the dangerous ones.
"Look at that jacket" he said,
pointing to q garment which his wife
handed the reporter, who examined it.
1t was literally cut to pieces-one
cut icing fully ten inches long. The
knife must have been a murderou,
weapon, indeed.
Referring to Biggs, who did the
cutting, Rogers said 81 feel sor-
~ for Biggs; I'm afraid he'll hive
trouble. He is a god fellow, ordin.
arily, but when full of whiskey, he's
dangerous.
Mr.. Rogers stated that the trouble
that eliminated between himself and
Biggs began about four weeks ago
when the latter began an unprovoked
attack on him. Last Saturday morn
ing he renewed this squabble when
Rogers knocked him down. Later
in the evening they met agaiE in
Riley's saloon, when, no sooner had
he left the place than he was seized
upon without ceremony by Biggs who
emerged from q stairway.
Rogers was handed a copy Of the
BAzoo. He said the account of the
cutting was accurate save 10 that par.
ticulsr where it said Woods had
bought his share in the horse. IL
still own half the animal" he ssid.
Rogers rested we'll last night aud to-
day was much improved.

THE HEARNES AGAIN,
:. Another Sensational Story Con.
corning Their Escapades in
California.

The news comes from Hannibal
that DR.. Hearne has been placed
under arrest at Los Angeles, Cal.
and that Mrs. Hearne has gone
crazy. The Hearnes will be remem'
bered as having created several seDsa
tons in Hannibal.
Mrs. Hearne, it will be remember
ed, was formerly the wife of A. }.
Stillwell, the wealthy pork man who
was murdered several years ago.
That sensation was followed by an
other, in her marriage to DR.. Hearne
on the first anniversary Of Stillwells
death.
Not long ago the papers were filled
with accounts of her attempt to run
Of to Germany, the facts in the case
being, it is said, as follows:
Dr.. Hearne had been brutal to her,
chastising her at different times, and
she went TO Chicago, where she was
met by r. H. Stillwell and wife.
There she made her will and left the
doctor 81. r. II. S;illwell and wife
witnessed the document and returned
home. She then LETT for Germany.
After she had boarded the steamer
the doctor induced her to return, the
will was altered and he was left al.
most her entire share. This is vouch-
ed for by interested parties and also
said to be fact by one of the county
court judges.

THE MARSHALL BANK FAILURE.

THE MARSHALL BANK FAILURE.
The failure of the Cordell Diannica
Banking company of Marshall Satur.
day is more serious than at first sup
posed. The cause of the failure was
the protesting of Q $4,000
draft on the National Bank Of
commerce of st. Louis, and q
run on the Cordell bank followed
Saturday morning. As stated in yes
terday's BAzoo the liabilsties are
closely estimated at $4,000 deposits
and $50, 900 in bills payable. The
sssets of loans to the amount of $780,.
600, overdrafts s26, 900, cash $500.
The overdrafts are all said to be I'M.
secured. The assignee, Mr.. j. P.
Huston, refuses to give an opinion
regarding the value OF the
$50, 900 loans, but it is
known that the bank has for a long
time held great deal of doubtful and
worthless paper. The assignee is hard
at work and will file a complete in.
ventory of all assets not later than
THURSDAY of this week. He will re-
tain Mr.. j. H. CorcelI, the cashier,
as bis chief clerk while the affairs Of

Cordell, is, in point of experience,
the Oldest banker in Marshall, and is

BURNED ALIVE.
Two COlOred Children Perish In
q Burning Dwelling.

Late Saturday night the cry of fire
was heard in the city of churches,
Smiihton, No., q small village six
miles east of Sedalia, on the Missouri
Pacific of about 600 inhabitants.
1t vas soon located in Coon" town.
The eastern portion Of SmithtOn is
principally settled by negroes, and
the residence Of William Buekner was
on fire ard ready to fall in before any
one knew of il. The house was an
almost new box structure, 1892 feet.
The family was away from home at
tending one Of their colored lodges,
"Wise men of the East" except the
two larger children, sged 5 and 7
years, who were asleep in the house.
These two children persisted in the
flames.
Not thing was saved out of the
building, and the wasted bodies were
fished out after the building had fall
en- in, only to be disgusting in the ex-
irene, to look upon. Their feet and
hands were burned entirely of, while
the bodies were crisp.
William Buckner and his wife, Jes.
sine, were hard working. we'll respect
ed colered people and have the conf.
dence of all who know them.
The charitable people responded to.
day to help them by taking up a cole
lection at all the churches for their
benefit.
The manner and origin of the fire
will never be known. Various theo-
ries are advanced. One of the child
rem was burned in the bed, while the
other one had gotten out of the bed
and went to the other part of the
room and seemingly had crawled
under the bed.

LONG EARS IN COURT.
A Case Full of Brays, Both
From the Cause of the Suit
and the Attorneys.

A case was in the circuit court yes
terday which attracted considerable
attention from the bar.
Of course it did.
The title of the case was Samuel r.
D. MEL vs. John L johnson.
1t was a suit about q blind, long
cared animal, q direct descendant oil
the same kind Of an animal on which
BALKAN went through Jerusalem, and
which is mentioned in connection
with Bob Ingersoll.
Daniel resides in Benton county and
p. D. Hastain was his attorney.
johnson resides in this county and
Ssngree & Lamm were his advocates
at the bar of justice.
it seems that Daniel on the 9Th day
of April, 1891, bought of johnson a
jack and paid for the same s24l good
and lawful money, which was not dis
puted by johnson.
Daniel further alleges in his Pc
tition that the animal was warranted
sound, but subsequently, he, Daniel,
discovered that he was blind, so blind
he could not see a train of cars, Usage
river, Benton County court house or
q barn as large as a meeting house.
Could see fly on the court house dome !;
A wart on Dad Smiths chin.
A boom for Blaine, or . "Home, Sseet
Home"
When mother-in.lsw is "in."
Of course johnson denied all this
in his answer and would affirm that
the jack could see anything that was
pointed out out to him from a peck of
corn in the feed trough to a spear of
grass on the highest bill in the jungles
Of Benton county or the beautiful
prairies of Pettis.
The evidence was not very volumi-
nous and then came the arguments Of
the attorneys to an intelligent jury.
Well, the scripture that Messrs
Hasting & Lamm don't know about
Balaam and his historic steed, whose
ears are of regulation length, it is not
worth the while of any of the min
isters' alliance to search for.
Judge Field sat upon the bench
after dark last night to listen to the
oratorical efforts Of the learned coun.
eel in the case, and if the talk of the
attorneys is all taken for truth, they
too were great students of the animal
kingdom as well as of Biblical lore.
The jury, too, are now resting IN
easy on their pillows over the education
they received. Their minds were as
. blank piece Of paper regarding the
jack question before this trial. and
now they are satisfied that . blind
jack is a worthless piece of property
and gave tie gentleman from Benton
county a judgment for s249, all he
asked.
And Daniel is happy while John.
son is mad and refuses to be com.
forted.

before We left the saloon and was told

"Most certainly. while l am truly
sorry for the man, yet I feel that in
justice to my citizenship and to the
people, / feel that it is my imperative
duty to withhold no evidence that

There are several other parties

their names from publication.

THAT BAD THUMB.
Startling Discovery Made by an
Otterville Barber Who Used
to Shave Hedspeth-An
Interview.

Mr.. K. W. Hobercht, who resides
at Otterville, where he owns . large
Touring mill, was IN the city this
mroning and was seen shortly after
his arrival by = representative of the
BAzoo. From him information was
cleaned that, almost beyond question,
establishes the identity Of the man ar.
rested at that place night before last.
The man, it would seem, is none
other than Marion Hedspeth the ex-
convict who in the early part of De-
cember last aided in robbing an ex-
press train at Glendale of 500, 900.
About dusk Tuesday night, a man,
dressed after the manner Of middle
class westerner, entered j. w. Bex.
terIs barber shop claiming that his
name was John W. Morris and that
he was q cousin of Bexters.
This strange announ cement together
with the personal appearance Of the
man, caused Bexter, who had seen
his cousin, John w. Morris, Of Cooper
county, not later than six months
ago, to regard the new conner with
suspicion though this he managed to
conceal.
Further on in course Of their con-
versation, the Glendale robbery was
introduced, whereupon Morris care.
lessly inquired if Bexter knew Heds.
peth.
In the meantime, while his "cousin"
was talking Bexter busily engaged
himself in scrutinizing the man.
There were certain peculiarities
about him that made his thoughts
advert to q man known az Hedspeth,
whom he had known in
Cooper county years ago
and whose face he had shaved many
q time. While bis mind was employed
in trying to find out what it was about
the man that seemed familiar, his eye
rested on the Strangers thumb and
then it was that he became seized
with fear, for this thumb, deformed
by q felon, corresponded exactly with
that of q man he had shaved years
ago-a man desperate and dangerous
who had served in states prison seven
years having been sent from Cooper
county for larceny; Morris and He'd!
speth were the same.
Dispatches were sent to Upton and
two detectives arrived on . freight
train disguised as cattle men. They
went at once to the Bowman hotel
where Morris was and having adj
vanced on either side leveled their
pistols in his face.
He was searched and on his person
was found a huge Colts revolver. He
was taken to Upton where he is
awaiting tho arrival of officers from
St. Louis to whom he will be de-
|ivered.
While in Otterville, he gave vari.
ous accounts Of himself, telling al
physician that he had come from
another Ellston and yet
another from Texas.
When arrested, he became seized
with q violent spell of nervousness,
md refused to talk.
He will be taken to st. Louis to- !
lay. ~
