names Marvin Case of Parke county,
James Cox. ex-treasurer of Vigo county,
and John Holbert of Clay county. Davis
took the note, for which he gave part
money. good notes on other parties, and
two years rent OF farm. Wright took
up this note when due and renewed Ii, the
the note being made payable to Davis He
then forged another note payable to Davis
for S4.l50 with the names of w. r. Nc

also took of him. Wright began some
time ago to live extravagantly and so
much beyond his visible means that it at
tracted the attention OF his neighbors.
For instance. he bought numerous fine
suits of clothing and would frequently be
seen on the streets OF Rosedale wearing at
different times during the day dozen
suits OF clothes, having changed his toilet
that often. He was also seen to be very
intimate with Davis, who is an old bache-
lor money lender in the neighborhood.
So, parties suspicious went TO Davis and
inquired about il. He at first thought
there was nothing wrong az the notes were
so we'll Endorsed. He told them that Mr..
Catlin was one OF the signers to the notes
and they came 10 Rockville and asked him
and were told that il was a forgery. A
warrant was then sworn out by Davis and
Wright was arrested and placed in the
Rockville Jail.

a DYNAMITE CONSPIRACY.
The Scheme te Blow Up the Anderson JAN
Discovered.

The scheme e. Blow Up the Anderson jail
Discovered.
ANDERSON, June 6.-lSpecial. THAT
the Anderson Jail was not dynamited last
night and all the prisoners released or
killed is a matter ofluck.
The work had been thoroughly planned,
and all that remained was to put the
plans into execution. The vigilance of
Prosecutor Carver alone prevented the
desperate scheme being putinto execution.
There are now five men in Jail who have
been sentenced to the state prison, each
for terms OF from two to six years. They
are William Fleming. Frank Hall, Harry
Davis and Walter Tibbetts, burglars, and
William B. Dells, swindler. Prosecutor
Carver has been afraid these men would
break Jail, so he has kept a close watch on
the prisoners, and whenever man was
released from custody he was questioned
closely as to what was going on inside the
Jail.
His vigilance was rewarded Saturday
afternoon. He was at Elwood and along
in the afternoon be happened to meet a
man who had recently been discharged
from Jail. Mr.. Carver iocularly remarked
that he supposed the boys had about COM
pleted their scheme TO Get out OF jail. The
ex prisoner looked startled when this re-
mark was made. Carver was satisfied
that something was wrong. After ques-
tioning the fellow closely he confessed
that a plot had been laid to break Jail and
that it was the intention to execute il
that night. Then he laid the whole plot
before the prosecutor and told how far the
work had progressed and that il was the
intention 30 finish it that night with dyn-
amite TO be furnished by confederates out
side.
Mr.. Carver had heard enough. He
had but three minutes 10 make the train
for Anderson, but he did il. As soon as
he got here the prosecutor hunted up
Sheriff Elchison and told him of the in
tended Jail delivery. The two men went
TO the jail and found everything just as
the ex-pTisoner had stated. The men
had been operating on the walls OF the
north side of the building Two heavy
iron hangers used to hold the steam pipes
had been wrenched loose and with these
the prisoners had pried out the window
frame and loosened big lot of brick.
The brick had been carefully replaced in
the wall, so as to be taken out at a mo.
ment's notice.
Last night was the time set for making
the delivery. Confederates outside were
to come TO the north side OF the Jail that
night and tie piece of dynamite TO a
string that would be thrown outside from
the Jail window.
1t was then to be drawn inside and
placed IN the wall and fired at midnight
Steel saws were also to be supplied by
parties outside, so they could saw them
selves out OF their cells.

TIPToN, June Especial. The second
case of white Gaping occurred last night
at Sharpsville.
Alfred Midkif, young man twenty
years Of age was the victim. Itiseems that
he has been boarding with Mrs. Jarrett tor
come time, in whose house was also a
widow. Reports had been circulated for
come time that Midkiff and the lady had
been too intimate to suit the staid citizens
Mrs. Jarrett was notified not to harbor
Midkiff as bosrder or there would be
trouble. The woman, however, paid no
attention to the threats.
Last night about 10 o'clock several men
with white masks over their faces, entered
the house ard pulled Midkiff from bed,
blindfolded, "bucked and gagged" him.
and led him to a tree. Then they secure
ly tied him and began to 'lay on MacdufF."
The men used heavy willow switches, and
at every lick, the skin was terribly cut
and bruised He was then released. and
in few hours he was able to crawl back
to the house
Young Midkiff was in Upton this after
noon in consultation with Prosecutor
Smith. He says that when the men en-
tered the house, and before they could
extinguish the light, he had recognized
three or four OF them, whom he says, are
citizens of Sharpsville. He will not di-
vulge their names at present, but says he
will do so when the proper time arrives.
To The SENTINEL correspondent he ex-
hibited several gashes and bruises on his
back and arms. He denies being guilty
of undue intimacy with the lady in ques-
ton, and does not intend to leave Sharps-
vile on account OF his whipping.

Keiifer went to Sharpsville today and ar
rested John Cox, Taylor Gohhin and g.

posed white-cappers who nearly killed
Midkiff last night. Cox is a prominent
merchant Of the town and the other two
are wealthy farmers. They were placed

few months ago.
