DISTURBED HIS BRETHREN,
A West Virginia Knight of Pythias Objected
to Being Kept Out.

The trial of Editor S. S. Stewart of the
Richie Rereille ended Tuesday at Parkersburg,
W. Va. in an acquittal. 1t was one of the most
sensational affairs Richie county has known
for some time. Editor Stewart was being tried
for shooting into a lodge room filed with
Knights OF Pythias, and he had done so and did
not deny it. The story is as follows: Editor
Stewart, who is an enthusiastic Knight of
Pythias, had in some way offended some of the
officers and members of mis- lodge at Harris
vile, and when, on the night Of December g.
he presented himself at the door of the lodge
room and asked admission in the usual manner
he was rudely ordered to decamp.
This he not only refused to do. but demanded
admission and started to go in. when an officer
of the lodge ordered the Goorkeeper to eject
him by force. Stewart isn't a big man, but il
took something like q dozen two of the
brethren to force him out Of the lodge room.
When they succeeded in doing this they re-
tired and closed the door and went into ezecu-
tive session, but were rudely disturbed by a
storm Of pistol bullets. which wendell their
way through the outer door.
This unceremonious action threw the lodge
into confusion, when Stewart walked in and
took his seat. The body. after Stewards en-
trance the second time, refused to entertain
any further business and they adjourned. The
outcome was Stewards indictment

Mrs Cleveland was the first to leave the cot

Last night the town was filled with people
from the interior Of the country who wanted to
be in time to see the presidential party off.
Many OF these backwoodsmen, in their endeavor
to reach this place, had to bring into use some
Of their rickety old wagons, many Of which
have no. been in use for a dozen years.
One family made up OF father, mother and
nine children came into town in a wagon which
in former years had been used for the peddling
OF charcoal. As the interesting little group did
not put up at any of the hotels it was surmised
that they would camp out all night. Among

SKELETONS IN THE CELLAR.
Gruesone Find by Workmen in Digging Up
Old Ranch FOunda =.

uruesOE1e f1nd by NOrkmen in Digging Up
Old Ranch Founda -.
A sensational reminder OF the days Of the
Knoblock and Prather families OF Dubois county,
Indiana, unearthed yesterday by John
Flanagan, the present owner of what still bears
the name of '.Knob.ock Ranch" There were
eight sons in the two families and years ago
they formed u part of desperate gang Of
horse thieves and robbers that infested south
ern Indiana.
"Knoblock Place" was the most pretentious
house in the county, being d large two-story
log house, which was suffered to fall into decay
after the gang was broken up and fed the
state. The massive logs of which it was made
rotted partially away and fell into huge pile
and have lain thus for years. a thicket Of un-
derbrush growing up around them.
Flanagan had q force of men at work yes
terday clearing the ground and when the debris
was removed the men began to take out the
stone Of which tine foundation was made They
soon discovered that a cellar had been made
under the floor and the heavy logs which
formed the ceiling were we'll preserved. These
were removed and the cellar was seen to consist
of three apartments.
In the corner OF the first apartment stood q
heavy, high, old-fashiOned bedstead upon which
lay two skeletons, dressed i'll what appeared to
be well-preserved clothing, though it fell to
dust when touched. The skeletons were of o
man OF large size and a woman. That OF the
man lay upon its back with arms by its sides,
while that OF the woman was in q crouching at
tltude, resting against the headboard, with
brass candlestick clasped in its bony fingers.
The sight made the workmen shudder and
turn away, only to be confronted by sight
much more gruesome in the adjoining room.
Here the cellar was found scrupulously clean
but for the mildew and rusty smell. Ranged
along the north and west sides were two long
benches made OF split logs, on which were nine
skeletons, some of which had partially fallen.
All of these skeletons were in crumbling con-
dition. but they held together sufficiently to
permit removal to a couple Of long collins, in
which they were placed for burial yesterday.
