A number of people throughout
the country have been swindled in
q novel manner by a Chicago shar-
per, who inserted in several western
papers an advertisement stating
that an extraordinary inducement
was offered by the advertiser, who
would deliver a handsome steel en-
craving Of the landing of Columbus
to any person sending 81 to o Ger.
tain address in Chicago. The news
papers containing the advertise
ment was circulated extensively and
the result was that many a 50 bill
was sent to the Chicago address.
The senders anxiously awaited the

craving, but all they received in

BUY THE GRADER.

It is only within the last year
that the subject of good public
highways has been agitated gener-
ally in the newspapers of the coun-
try. Local agitation has been pre-.
ductive of good results in country
communities, towns and cities, but
it was reserved for the National
Wheelman's Club to give the SUBJ
ject a national interest and charac-
ter, and to call the attention of the
whole people to a matter conceded
by all classes of citizens, as of prime
Importance to our business and
commercial interests. This gene
raj move to awaken an interest and
secure practical results is being felt
the tiny little ripple is becoming
a wa9e of public sentiment center
ing in a direction that can not be
other than for the best good of all,
and especially for farming com
munities contiguous to country
towns and villages. In Dakota,
hitherto, this matter has had but
little attention from either the
press or the people, simply because
we have not been confronted with
an able bodied necessity that was
imperative; but the time has come
when yen eau not turn your team
out of the road and drive over a
long stretch of turf to avoid a bad
place in the road, without trespas-
sing upon your neighbours domain
cultivated fields now hedge IN
our public roads on either side, and
by general consent, a kind Of com
mon law, he who travels over it, or
pulls his load to market, must con-
tine himself within the narrow strip
the law has designated as public
property. This being true, the
time has come when a good road
over which to haul your grain and
other farm products to market,
mean time and money to every
man who does business in our town
as well as to those who use it as the
avenue through which TO reach the
markets of the world. Both the
farmer and the business man has a
lively interest in this matter, an
interest that means good, hard dol
lars to them. On Saturday of this
week, an election IS to be had to
settle the question as to whether
the township shall purchase IA road
grader to aid in putting our roads
in first class condition. We hope
every man will vote for the outlay.
In other communities where they
have made this investment, the re-
suit, as a matter of economy in the
construction of roads, and their
practical utility when completed,
has been eminently satisfactory.
Ii it is a good thing-does what it
proposes to do for other people, 1t
will do the same for US. If we COM
mence right we shall always be glad
of ito get this grader is the way
to commence, aud we hope every
man in the township will vote for
its purchase.

queer conduct and his peculiar living
He removed to Saugus and erected there
a shanty, a mile from the nearest house.
This was several years ago, and since that
time he has been known as "Miser War.
ren." Great stories have been going the
rounds about this
Old Hermit's Wealth.
Some say that he had $4,000 hidden be-
meath the floors of his house.
1t appears from what the police say that
Frank Chandler, who now lives in Stone
ham, knew of this hidden wealth, for he
let into the secret BLACK Jack" Harris, as
he is known at the West End. Harris is a
reformed crook The latter told Chandler
that he had quit the business, but he said
that II Day wanted man to rob Warren
he could find him good one.

WASHINGTON, April 1s.-A special tc
The Evening News from Raleigh says
The governor of this state will probably be
compelled to call out the state guard tc
dispossess 5000 negroes who are domiciled
on land which belongs to a white man and
who refuse to submit to legal process
When the federal authorities captured
Newberiie during the war, they hustled
most of the negroes out Of the town into
tract of land opposite it belonging tc
James A. Bryan. The negroes have con
tinued to squat there ever since, and it il
now known as James City.
The population of this black village IL
5000. The supreme court, after long litiga-
tion, sustained Bryan's right to the lands
The negroes refuse to pay even nominal
rents and have risen en- masse against
civil officers who attempted to eject them
Governor Carse has informed the negroes
that they must obey the laws, but they
are ugly and refuse to vacate.

As matter of fact, "Black Jackn Har.
ris is great friend of Officers Abbott and
Gilmore of station g. He went to them and
told how Day had tried to induce him to
60 into the job to kill Miser Warren and
secure his money, and also told of the in
ducements made to him.
II was agreed that Harris should play
the part of spy and should track the two
criminals. He was to report TO the officers
everything that transpired, and so closely
was he watched by these two officers that
he did all he agreed to, and yesterdays
arrests followed.
AS told by Harris the first time that Day
and Chandler attempted the atrocious
crime was two months ago. They visited
the house, broke through window, en-
tered, but failed to find any booty, as
They Were Scared Away.
Their second visit nearly eliminated in
the murder of the old hermit. They
smashed the windows on the ground floor
The old man came down stairs to see what
was the matter and was fired upon several
times.
} He then retreated upstairs. As they
still made great deal of noise, he feared
they intended to murder him, and jumped
from the top Of the house, a distance of 80
feet, to the ground.
The third and last attempt was made last
Thursday night. 1t was agreed that Day,
Harris and another crook known as Hop
per Tyler" should meet at the Boston and
Lowell depot at 1880 o'clock, and take the
8 o'clock train for Stoneham. Officers
Abbott and Gilmore followed them and
saw Day in the waiting room. In a few
moments Harris came along, followed by
Tyler.
All three went on the train and got off
at Stoneham. A walk of mile and half
brought them to Chandler's home, where
he joined the party. Each had revolver,
mask and black jack.
''Now you stand In the back of the house
and If he jumps from window, as he did
before, kill him IL you get chance" said
Chandler to Harris as they arrived at the
house.
When all was ready Chandler gave the
signal by smashing the window and then
crawled in. They searched the house, but
The Game Was Up.
for the other two attempts at his life had
scared the old miser and only the day be-
fore he had moved away, taking his gold.
Harris and Tyler walked to Boston and
told the story to Officers Gilmore and
Abbott.
The officers consulted with Captain
Watts, and as result State Detectives
Shaw and Bean were called In The Off
ceas investigated and got warrants in
Lynn. Chandler was arrested at his home
in Stoneham yeste erday.
Day was met on the street and arrested.
He had n loaded 3s-caliber revolver, a
black jack, n white cloth mask, memo
randum book and pair. of black gloves
which he had given Harris to wear.
In Chandlor's house 4-caliber Colts
revolver, hunting knife, two wooden
gags, three 'swag bags" dark lantern,
masks and other things were found.
Day, who is said to be In the employ OF
the Law and Order league I'm Boston, has
been cowboy and In the regular army.
He says he became acquainted with
Chandler through the latter's brother. He
acknowledges calling at Cbandisr's houss
