MURDER In sHARPsBURG.
Grant Baker Kills Lewis T. Glenn
mons Over a Game of Craps.

Last Saturday evening two col
ored citizens of Sharpsburg, Lewis
T. Clemmons and Grant Baker,
were engaged in game of craps,
and without a word of warning,
Baker, while Clemmons was on his
knees, whipped out his pistol and
shot Clemmons three times, killing
him instantly.
Baker, who is tough citizen,
was arrested and brought to this
city and lodged in jail. Excite
ment was high, and had he been
allowed to remain in Bath county,
he would more than likely have
been lynched. The murder was
without provocation and doubtless
there will be hanging in Bath
county.

Defended Himself With a Bed Stat.

On Saturday the 11th instant a ne.
gro, Henry Scott, attempted to assault
little negro child in Winchester
three years of age, and was detected
and fled. He was arrested at Paris
and returned to Winchester Friday,
where negro mob 200 strong over
powered the jailer, took his keys,
opened the Jail door, went to SCOTS
cell and opened the door, and when
they made an effort to lay hands ON
him he fought with tiger-like tenacity
with bed rail. Several shots were
fired by the mob in the dark but miss
ed their aim. After about forty
minutes the Jailer armed himself aud
repulsed the mob. The next day the
child was examined by a physician
and no marks of violence were found,
and the negro had an examining trial
and was released.

HORSE THIEVES
Captured in Clark County by Citi-
zens and Landed in Jail.

For the past few weeks there has
been some horse stealing going on
in the edge Of Clark and Montgom-
cry counties, and parties losing
their horses organized themselves
into detective force, determined
to find and capture the thieves.
On Monday, the 18th inst, Mr..
James Scobee ank Rev, Clark each
lost a horse. Mr.. Scobee's horse
was taken to Mrs. Ramsey's and
left and one of hers taken. From
here they went to Madison county
and exchanged the two horses they
had returned to Clark with these
horses. These two men were f. B..
and June Parker, aged about 20
and "a years, who lived on the JAS.
Chorn place. Detectives were
watching for them, and soon
after they returned to their
home it was surrounded and
the two men were captured and
lodged in the Clark county Jail.
The older Parker has served term
in the penitentiary charged with
theft, and this time he will have
his brother with him.

ard of the nations with whom the
people of this country are most init
mately associated in friendship and in

publican, Colonel Conger does well to
abandon the high Tariff ground of
Governor Mckinley, but he commits
g strange error in mounting the alb
surd Protective bimetallic platform
of ex-Speaker Reed. The Record
(Ind.,) Philadelphia.
"Recent Republican State Conven-
tons have shown that these Ohio OPP
ponents of McKinleyism correctly in
terpret the drift of sentiment on the
Tariff issue in the party. The recent
gathering of Kansas Republicans was
exceptionally large and enthusiastic.
A better occasion for testing the feel
ing of the masses toward the Tariff
issue could not be imagined. Yet the
platform had no more to say on the
subject than that I'VE adhere to the
Republican policy of Protection Not
word was said in favor of the exist

REPUBLICAN COMMENT.
"The political strength of Governor
Mckinley in 1896 will not depend
upon the favor of any particular polit-
ical element but upon the condition of
business in the United States. The
Herald (Rep.,) Rochester.
"The Mckinley bill caused the Re-
publican defeat in 1892. Nine-t enths
of the Republican party Of to-day con-
cede the fatal errors of the Mckinley
Tariff. 1t would be a death-blow to
the party if it should attempt to make
the contest in 1896 hinge on that
ue."-The Beacon (Rep.,) Akron,
Ohio.
l. "If the policy of Colonel Conger
is adopted, that the Republican line
of movement should be laid out to
meet the Democratic policy as declar-
ed in the tedious delirium of the Sem

appear to be much fighting ground
left, and such a proclamation is not
calculated to excite a wide-sweeping
and conquering enthusiasm.
"2, We could not recommend to
the Republicans to revive the Force
