ROBBERS CAPTURED.
The Two Colored Men Who Held
Up Young Rodenbaugh in jail.
HIS WATCH AND REVOLVER FOUND.
The wellsburg Officer ls Reading tho
Telegram Narrating the Robbery
When the Two Fellows Walk Into
Ills Clutches - They Arc Very
Shrcwd Individuals. III

Yesterday forenoon Officer Joseph
McIIonry, Of Wollsburg, arrested the
two colored men who tho evening be-
fore held up and robbed young Roden-
bauph on tho Pewiky railroad above the
city, taking his gold watch and arcvol-
yer. A telegram was sent to the Wells
burg authorities tho night before, but
tho telegraph office there being shut
was not delivered till yesterday morn
ing, when Officer MclIenry was at the
station and the operator gave him the
telegram. Ito was just reading it when
two men answering the description
came by and he arrested them.
Rodcnbaugh and Chief OF Police Nc
Nichol and Officer Barney Moran went
up to Wcllsburg when they heard OF
the arrest, and brought the prisoners
down Oh tho train arriving at o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
The two men were arraigned before
Squire Phillips, who sent them to jail
in default OF bond. On their way to
jail they said to m lSrELIIdEScER re-
porter that il they had any, evidence
ior their defense except their own they
would make it hot for anybody who
said that they were the guilty parties
When they were locked up atWells-
burg they were searched, but nothing
was found on them. Afterwards the
mayor thought best, to have u more
thorough search made, and the men
we're stripped OF all their clothing, but
still nothing was found. Later re-
volver was found on one OF them, and
in hole in the floor was found the
watch stolen from Rodcnbaugh. The
men had tried to sell the watca at the
Riverside glass works, but could not. A
man had seen one OF them. throw away
something, and going to the place found
the revolver which was taken from
Rodenbaugh. lie not only identified
the articles, but also positively said the
two men were the men who robbed
him.
They gave their names as Charles
Williams and Charles Curtin. They
came here last week, and the'conductor
OF the train on which they.Scame from
Pittsburgh says that one OF them had II
big roll OF money, and they boosted
that it was won at poker. When
searched yesterday, however, neither
had a cent. Perhaps they. had money,
but hid it rs skilfully as they did tho
revolver and watch when they were first
searched.
On the way to Jail at Wellsburg one
OF the men pulled his revolver on
Officer MclIenry. but he was prevented
from using it. \

WILLIAM DEAN HOWELLs.
His Departure From "Harper's''-His
Successor Is Charles Dudley Warner.
LII A

Successor Is Charles Dudley Warner.
John A. Cockerill.
There has been a great deal of adver-
Using of Mr.. William Dean Howells anent
his departure from THE Editors Study"
of Harper's Magazine to connect himself
with the Cosmopolitan. At the same time,
the Cosmopolitan, periodical which is con-
stantly and meritedly growing in popul-
arity, has also achieved much gratuitous
advertising. There has been some quite
superhuous show of sympathy with the
Harpers IN their supposed loss, which
doubtless they do not feel, since they have
selected as Mr.. Howell's successor a man
who is in every sense, and, especially in
literary sense, his superior. And, pri-
marily, for this reason: Mr.. Howells Is
handicapped by an overweening, and, in
deed, overwhelming self-conceit which has
made him insufferable to the thousands of
readers of the magazine with which he SO
long has been connected. One need only
to turn to the pages of his Study" to see
that he considers himself and wishes his
readers to believe him the greatest author,
novelist, playwright and poet that ever
lived in any land or ever wrote in any
tongue. This he has especially emphasized
bv his studied depreciation of all other
authors, and conspicuously, for near ex-
amples, of Thackeray and Dickens, neither

would cover q square mile, and all the
passages would measure hundreds OF
miles, It will be remembered that the
burial of the dead within the limits of old
Rome was, for sanitary reasons, prohib-
tied, and that cremation did not commend
itself to the early Christians and the Jews
and others. 1t is mistake to sup
pose that the interments in the cata-
combs were all of saints. Many sinners
were placed in them, and perhaps some OF
the bones of sinners have been sanctihed
and celebrated as those of saints. The
catacombs that / visited were, of course,
outside the city, and the entrance through
a church. The priest who guided Us was
a keen-eyed and bright-faced man. We
had candles and plenty of matches. The
excavations are narrow, just room to walk
freely. and on either side tombs IN tiers,
sometimes two, and often four, stone
shelves followed out for placing the dead.
The rock cuts easily, Ike chalk, but
hardens upon exposure to the air; but
there must have been infinite labor per-
formed in preparing this city of the dead.
Thousands and tens of thousands of these
tombs have been robbed, but in many the
bones are still visible, and many have
never been opened; the original marble
and terra Gotta slabs enclosing and sealing
up the remains have not been touched.
Here was an open tomb-an elongated
mass of white plaster. A child, the priest
SAYS, died of some contagious disease, and
the body was coated with white plaster.
Here" said the priest, 'are man and
wife" We look through an iron netting,
and there are two skeletons side by side
the skulls and bones of the legs showing
white in the gloom. Presently We come to
a chapel, dungeon-like department, grim
and mysterious in the feeble light of our
candles. In some places the passages
lined with tombs are forty feet under the
ground Here the Christians were concealed
largely from the tyranny of their persecut-
ors and took sacred care of their dead,
and marked clearly their places of sepul-
ture. 1t Is fair TO say here that taking this
into consideration, there is q good basis for
belief in the genuineness of many relics
that have been scotfed at as fabulous by
those too ignorant to know the strength of
the testimony. One more suggestion in
tho same direction. The Romans con-
quered the holy land and were in posses
sion and full authority in the time of
Christ. They spoiled the country as they
did all countries. There are eleven Egyp-
of well-known history, others are not
in clear light. They date back
thousands of years before Christ.
We know right where some of those
stones stood 1900 years before Christ. Not
only did the Romans spoil, but other ma
tons. The Turks and Saracens did the
same thing, and when the Venetians took
Constantinople they removed decorative
pillors of porphyry and other treasures.
And why are not the pillars we are told
We're from Solomon's temple-one against
which Christ leaned, steps He walked upon
AS authentic as the obeisks that stood,
we know, before temples older than Solo
mons? There is, if we look at it steadily,
skepticism as blind as superstition.

OF whom, according TO Howells, was an
artist, scarcely even an author, and neither
OF them knew how to write a novel. This
estimate OF Howells and of his absolutely
amazing self-conceit is founded upon no
prejudice, but is based wholly upon what
he himself has proclaimed He stands
confessed as the embodied literary imperti-
nence of this century. No doubt he is
and Will be, acceptable to the Cosmopolit1n
or he would not have been chosen as ito
editor; but the impression is general that
the Harpers are delighted to get rid of
him.
Mr.. Charles Dudley Warner, who has
been promoted from ''The Editors
Drawer" of Harper's to the higher seat IN
THE Editors Study" is much more
widely and much more favorably known
as an American author than Mr. Howells
