DEN OF HORSE THIEVES.
Island In the Missouri River Used for
that Purpose.


CHAMBERLAIN. S. d.. March i.-W ood-
choppers at work on Phelps' island, in the
Missouri river south of here. have matle
an important discovery. While chopping
in an out OF tho way place Oh the island
they found an underground cave. This
island formerly belonged To Frank Phelps,
the man found guilty at Alexandria last
fall of stigating tho murder of Mot
Matso,. but was sold by him some months
ago. While Phelps lived on tho island IL
was always believed here that his home
was the headquarters for gang of horse
and cattle thieves. and that this fact was
the cause of Matson's murder. The mur-
dered man lived on the bottom land ON
the west side of the Missouri, directly OPP
posite the island. He was thus in a posi-
ton to see what was going OIL, and his
presence iuterfered with the operations OF
the gang. Therefore an assassin was
hired to shoot him down in cold blood.
The discovery of the underground
cave bears out the assertions OF
numerous persons who have always
maintained that stolen stock was
secreted on the island until such time
as it was safe 10 run il out of the country.
The mouth of the cavern was carefully
concealed by thick mating of vines and
branches. and it was only by the merest
accident that it was discovered. An in-
spection of the interior showed that num-
berless horses had been kept there. The
cave was sufficiently large TO hold SIX or
eight horses at one time. The finding of
of the cave created quite sensation here
among those who have suspected the ma
ture of the business conducted by Phelps
and his crew.

In their memorial to the State Senate on Assembly

in favor OF th,ir position. Following some OF
them.
Twenty years ago NcwYori led the Western
world IN It's system OF free education. There was
no city I'm the country which was then liberal
In It's expenditure or public moneys for common
schools and the higher education.
To-day. Of the sixteen cities OF the United Sta ties
which have over 10000 Inhabitants New York
stands number fourteen In It's expenditures per
capita OF population for free education: and Of the
thirty three witch have over 10000 Inhabitants
she stands number tWentN-slN.
Let us compare Ncw-York In public school mat
ters with Chicago. ScY-N York has u population OF
nearly 201DO. Chicago = nearly 10000
Last year %ry-Nofa spent for public education
a little over >s.sJ.ooo Chicago IN the same TIM"
spent for public edo alton over 100000 Chicago
spent for public education about s. 20 per capita OF
her population. NcW-NOrk about -. u Ncw-fork
had spent as much last year per capita for free
education a. Chicago did. New-York would have
spent 100000 instead OF t5Go.0J: In other words.

In urging a m ere liberal support OF higher educa-

There are twenty-five States In this Union which
have free universities Only two or these States ex
