from southern South America into
Mexico, then there is large break,
and the interrupted chlin begins again

from an era of otupcndous activity.
Future resumption of such activity is
not improbable, Tor in the West are
volcanoes so recent az, like Mt Shasta,
to retain their couical form, aud some
OF these perhaps are no more dormant

man, William Otte and Robert Schneider
and put them in Jail. John L. Schrader,
a man seventy-eight years Of age. fought

his eyes. He then ran upstairs and
Ieaped to the ground, a distance of
twenty feet, and escaped in the dark

of the best citizens of Jackson township.

spiracy and they held Mrs. Schrader's
clothes over her head while the men
beat her.
Seven of the conspirators are under a
bond of 81, 900 each to appear Oct. 3 for

steps and reappeared around the corner
OF the hall with his revolver In his hand.
Such preparation for warfare was not
disputed on the witness stand nor even
by defendant.
After his temperance around the
corner OF the hail he again came I'm

near the parties when the shot was fired
testified that there were no threats used
by deceased or any one with him, while
the friends OF defendant, two OF whom
were INSIDE OF the man ana the Otnci TWO
at least twenty feet away with a crowd
between them and the parties. testified
that some one said: XIII him; shoot
him."
All those. with one exception, who saw
the position Of the parties when the shot
was fired. agreed I'm the statement that
when Allison fired the shot deceased was
standing with his hands down at his
side making no demonstrations what
ever. The excepted party a chum
