Benefit for walpole,

| The following from the Hillsbor0 In
dependent refers to an individual who
is not unknown in Lebanon:
"Walpole, alias 't'inhorn, was srrest-
ed on Saturday last al Cornelius On q
warrant charging him with assault
and battery committed some months
since on the person Of William An
mems. In default of bail he has been
laying in Jail since. While in the cage
be played the religious role, and want
ed to enter into a combination with
the Methodist clergyman, by which
all the wickedness of the town,
whether real or imaginary, may be
laid before the public and punishment
fixed. While in Jail he sang and
prayed. He shouted and he wept uD-
til Jailor Bradford chucked him In the
street cage, whereupon he played the
Myster act. He isa prosecuted Chris
tian gentleman, the same as John
Bunyan Of old. But when he Is sized
up he is a poor vagabond tramp-too
lazy to work and thoroughly vicious.
The Salem Democrat reports that he
has been in Jail at the capital, and in
the poor house. He acted as his own
attorney yesterday, and wandered all
about, sometimes within the record
bat oftener out. He admitted that he
made the assault charged with intent
to kill. That being in testimony the
magistrate at once held him in bonds
of 5000 to await the action Of the next
grand jury. The complaining witness
was held in bonds of 800 to appear
and testify. Tinhorn is dangerous
man and while he is without doubt q
coward, he knows how to handle
matches. In open court he declared If
ne was held that he should recognize
no law or any Of the peace officers. OF
course such man cannot furnish
bonds, and when taken to Jail he set
up vigorous howl till the jailer turn
ed the hose on him until he was thor
oughly drenched"
1t will be remembered this individu-
al was the principal witness for the de-
fendant in the Williams VS.. Banta case
at this place few years ago. 1t will
also be remembered that he was run
out of town by crowd OF citizens,
making his escape by jumping out of a
window in the second story of the St.
Charles Hotel.

Bold Train Robbers.

KENDALIyILLE, Ind, Sept. l2.--An-
other daring and successful train rob
berry Is on record. The New York
express train on the Lake Shore road,
which left Chicago at 7:45 last night,
reached siding at Keslar, five miles
west Of here, at o'clock this morning
Approachingit, engineer Knapp no
ticed red danger-signaI light at the
switch, and stopped the train. As he
did SO, 20 men. armed with Winches-
tiers, sprang out of the woods, scattered
along the train and covered the train
men, while one fred at the engineer,
inflicting wound in the shoulder.
With everything in hand, the robbers
proceeded to blow open the forward
express car with dynamite; then knock
ing the express messenger senseless,
exploded five dynamite cartridges in
succession against the safe before it
yielded. They helped themselves to
its contents, the whole performance oc.
cupying an hour, when without max
ing any attempt on the other express
car, or interfering with the passengers,
who remained in the cars, panic-strick.
en-, they fireda few warning shots and
disappeared in the woods. 1t is ru-
mored they secured $3.50, 200 in transit
from one of the Chicago banks to New
York. The rumor is not yet verified.
The train came on here and the alarm
was given, and the sheriff at once sum-
moned posse and started in pursuit
of the bandits.

Now He Has Seen Something.

The following article is from foot
note to a worlds fair correspondents
letter to the Scientific American, in
which reference was made to "a Canada
hackwoodsman who made visit to
the fair, travelling about thousand
miles in crude dugout.
"The mans name is Antoine
Brousseau. Although unable to
read or write, he heard of the
Fair and made up his mind to visit it.
He found an old leaky punt about is
feet long which had been abandoned,
patched it up, and decided to use it as
his means Of transportation, With the
aid of favorable winds, horse blanket
and an old wooden paddle, he succeed
ed in reaching Chicago after travelling
q distance of something like 1000
miles. His only companion was his
dog Pete. Before he left his northern
home he had never seen a railroad or
an electric light; had never heard
band of music or the whistle of q
steamboat. At one of the points on
his way band Of music was playing,
and there also he first gazed upon the
wonders of electricity. He was SO car
ried away with what he saw and heard
that he thought he had reached
heaven. The region whence Brousseau
comes is as wild to-day as it was when
Chicago was only trading post, the
temporary stopping place of men like
himself, He says that he has lived in
the woods for months at time with
out seeing a human face. He was born
and raised In the wilderness, and until
he started on this wonderful voyage of
his he was ignorant of the conditions
of life in the great wsrld beyond the
'clearings.' "

SLAIN BY HER HUSBAND
Horrible Death of a Woman In
 Perth Anboy.
JACK THE RIPPER WAS SIMULATED.

A FraI Wife Literally Torn to Pieces by a
 cause n Neighbor Assisted Her In Chop
 ping Wood.
 PERTH AAfBoY, N. J., Sept 26.-Jsck the Ripper's horrible work was successfully emulated here last Friday night. A wom- an was the victim. Michael Fahey, who committed the crime, is powerful man, while his wife, who was murdered, was frail and sickly, weighing less than 100 pounds.
 Mrs. Fahey was chopping wood in her yard on Washington street, when neigh Dor, who took compassion on her weak con dition, offered his services. Mrs. Fahey, knowing the jealous disposition of her hus- band, at first refused ths Froffered aid, but the neighbor insisted upon cutting the wood, and she finally allowed him to do the work.
 Upon Fahey's return from work that evening Mrs Fahey informed him of what the neighbor had done. Fahey immediate ly became angry and accused his wife of infidelity and threatened her.
 After eating his supper Fahey visited several saloons and drank freely. He re turned to his home about II o'clock and lay down. His wife, who was in great fear, waited until she supposed he was asleep and then retired.
 Work of Demon.
 She no sooner reached the bed than he bounced upon her with his bare hands, tearing and mutilating the poor, helpless creature in brutal, sickening manner. The woman's shrieks alarmed the neigh bors, and upon their approach Fahey fled.
 Dr. Brace was summoned, and upon eN- animation discovered that she was badly torn. The woman, after telling some of the details of the crime, lapsed into uncon- sciousness, in which state she remained un- til Sunday morning, when she was relieved of her suffering by death.
 Fahey wandered about the streets during Friday night regardless of the police, and was not arrested until Chief Burke was made aware of the facts Saturday morning. He was taken to the recorders office, where he admitted his guilt. He was immediate ly hustled off to the county jail in New Brunswick, and quietly did the chief work that the general public did not learn of the crime until Saturday night. Had Fahey been in the city when the facts be came known nothing could have saved him from the wrath of the angry citizens.
 The couple had been married five years, and Mrs. Fahey had always borne an ex- cellent reputation. Fahey had uniformly treated her in an inhuman man ner. The coroner's jury will meet today.

 The Fight by Rounds.
 Round One-Smith rushed in on Dixon and did some very vicious intightinC. Dix on had some hard work during the round. Both men fought hard, and their work was clean cut.
 Round Two-DiNon was short with his left, axd Smith planted q stinging left on the nose and fought Dixon to the ropes. Dixon tried his left, but Smith crossed him. Dixon planted his right on Smiths ear, and sharp rally eusucd, when Dixon planted his right on Smiths jaw. Smith tottered and clinched, when the bell rang at what appeared to be the critical point for Smith.
 Round Three-DiNon followed upthe ad- vantage of the previous round and forced the fighting. He knocked Smith down three times in rapid succession and had him almost out. The fighting was of the most rapid character. Dixon kept swing ing his left with great force into smiths stomach until kr had him very much ex- hausted.
 Round Four-Good condition and ham ding sent Smith to the center looking fresher Dixon led on tho chest and clinch- ed. 4 sharp rally and hard infightiug fol- lowed, of which Dixon had all the best Dixon landed his left twice in succession. This was clearly the colored lads round
 Dixon Did the Most Landing.
 Round Five - Smith came up strong. Dixon forced the fighting, and Smith met him with good, straight left hand blows and succeeded in making the blood flow very freely from DiNon's face. Smith grew stronger and landed some stiff punches Dixon was still doing the majority of the landing, but not fighting quite so rapidly.
 Round SiX-Both responded quickly. Dixon tried and failed, but repeated with
