SHOT DOWN.

Desperate Battle Between Mutinous Con-
victs and Guards Mt the Ionia (Mich)
Housc of Correction - An Attempt to
Escape Frustrated Only After Flight
In which One Man Is Killed and Several
Are Wounded.
IONA, Mich, July 11.-Full seventy
Ave convicts at the house of correction
made a break for liberty about II a.
m. They were at work III the various
shops. The first ten or fifteen left
their work and started for the west
wall. The ringleader was Convict
William Smith, known as No. 703, a
five-year man sent up from Detroit.
Tinsmlths have been at work on shop
No. 2l, about 10 rods from the west
wall, repairing conductor pipes. Two
long ladders were used and were stand
ing against the building. Smith started
out and was followed by the Others
who were in the scheme. He quickly
clasped the ladder standing against the
west wall.
Warden Parcell had discovered that
something was coming, over Sunday,
and had doubled the guard. Teacher
Gourley was watching around in the VII
cinity of this building, and when he saw
Smith and the gang come out he fired u
shot from his revolver into the ground
and ordered the men back. Smith
urged them on, paying no attention to
the order. The men on the wall and
about the yard quickly assembled at
this point and were ordered by Warden
Parcell to stop the break.
A general fusillade commenced and a
hand-to-hand fight followed. The lad
ders were knocked down, but the con-
victs replaced them, and Oscar Miller
an eight-year man, gained the top of
the wall. The guard shot at him and
the ball went clear through his body
and he dropped to the ground dead.
In the meantime n terrible battle was
going on below. Convict Smith struck
at Deputy Warden Rowley with a
hammer, but the latter lodged and
escaped death. Rowley struck Convict
Charles L. Jones on the head and he
dropped. He will doubtless die, as his
head is terribly cut William Eager,
sent from Grand Rapids, was badly
wounded, and hts recovery is doubtful.
He is serving a tiftecn-year sentence for
manslaughter.
1t was only by prompt action that
the wholesale liberation of the con-
victs was averted. Hall Master Par
cell grabbed up the irons used
by some local timers and COM
menced prodding the convicts who ran
back. Gradually the convicts were
forced into their cells. Four convicts
were injured. Smith, the leader, was
found to have a bad cut on the back of
his head. On seeing the first ten fol-
low Smith out of the shop, the rest fol-
lowed until they We're driven back.

A Queer Little Quaker custom.

Near the city of Philadelphia there
are few quaint old villages where
Quakers and Quaker customs are to be
found just as they were in the days of
good old William Penn. You have no
idea how odd some of these customs are.
A few days ago a New York lady was
travelling through one of these little
villages, and, being tired, she stopped
at an old brick farmhouse to rest. I'M
mediately there came out a little girl,
dressed all in gray, who invited her to
come in the house and have cup of
tea and some cakes. When the lady
had partaken of her refreshmGnt and
turned to go, she offered the old-fash-
ioned maid in gray some candy out OF a
swcetmeat box which she carried at her
belt.
mo, thank thee" said the little
one bashfully. IL thank thee-but
no."
'Please take tho candy" urged the
lady, ~ want to give it to you because
you have been SO kind to me-"
For minute the little one hesitated.
She put out her hand rs if yielding to
temptation, and then drew it back res
olutely, as she said: .04
~ thank thee, no. l may not take
the candy now, because when thee
asked me first. if would have some, l
told thee no, and now may not take
any until thee comes some other day"

ADMITS THE MURDER.
Negro Captured Who Says He Killed tho
Ray sisters.

CAIRO, H.. July l1.-News was re-
ceived here Monday night that negro
had been arrested at Milan, Tenn, who
is found to have been an accomplice Of
Miller and Il partner in crime, and who
is the one that actually COM
mitted the murder of the Ray
sisters. The sheriff at Bardwell.
Ky, has been notified, and if
he proves to be the man, as
claimed, another lynching is in pros
pect, A passenger conductor on the
Illinois Central. who brings the news
of the arrest, says the man fought des-
perately, but when finally overpow-
cred admitted that he murdered the
girls and that Miller knew it and re-
fused to divulge it. Miller, while in
Jail at Bardwell is claimed to have said
that, while he did not commit the
crime he knew who did it. He after
wards denied having said SO.
Until Monday no one could be found
who would say positively that he had
seen Miller in Kentucky on the day OF
the murder, but now young woman
asserts that she saw the Miller who
was lynched hiding in her fathers barn
near Bardwen that morning and saw
him again when he was first taken
back. The impression is growing
that the mob got the right man or
his accomplice, Notwithstanding the
slight and purely circumstantial
evidence upon which he was hung.
The discovery of the fact that he mailed
letter from here on the Fourth of
July to his wife at Springfield, H..
strengthens this belief, for after mail
ing the letter he had ample time to go
from here to where the young girl says
she saw him in the barn near the place
where the murder was committed

Kreider, farmer living within mile
of Cando. Towner county, his wife and
four daughters Were brutally murdered
at their home Friday morning by Abb
ner Baumburger, nephew of
Kreider, for whom he had been
doing farm work. Baumburger
went direct to his uncle's room,
shot him dead, then went to the
kitchen, where Mrs, Kreider was
getting breakfast, and shot her in the
head, He then went upstairs, where
four little children had fed and de-
liberately shot away with shotgun
until he killed them all. Baum
burger then returned to the kitchen,
took potato knife from Mrs
Krelder's hand and nearly sew
cred the head from the body,
and, taking the knife, he proceeded pu-
stairs, and finding one of the little
girls yet alive he held her in his arms
and cut her throat. He then went in
search for the remaining three little
girls. He succeeded in finding the
eldest and was preparing to murder
her when he remembered that he had
not had breakfast. He ordered the girl
to cook him some meat and potatoes,
which she did. With one foot rest
ing on the head of the murdered mother
he ate his breakfast and then pulled
out his watch and said: We'll, did the
whole job inside of thirty minutes" :"
His immediate thirst for blood being
appeascd, he took his little niece and
carried her to the barn, tied her
firmly with a rope, and returned
to the house, where he searched until
he found all the valuables the family
possessed-a gold watch and $50 in
money--which he took and fled.
Sheriff McCune, assisted by scores of
men, is after the murderer. II Baum
burger is caught he will be lynched.
| The only motive for the crime is slight
dispute which occurred over wages.
