Andrew Jackson, a colored voter in Bal

not satisfied to lead an honest life after he
had made the acquaintance Of a certain fe-
male. and now he is in trouble. Until a
few days ago Andrew had been a respected
member of colored society there. and his

few days. He was more than pleased with
the new surroundings, and would proba bly,

however. and Jackson, learning that the
oficers were looking for him, packed his
stolen satchel early in the morning and
started from the house. intending to follow
the example of many of the commonwealers
and seek refuge within the boundaries of

taken back to Baltimore for trial.

DEFY UNCLE SAM
Mob Of Strikers at Willmar Overpower
Officers and Capture q Train.

WILLMAR, MINI, April 2l.-Although
the strikers at Litchfield respected the
government seals that had been placed on
the coupled cars guarded by Marshal Bede,
such was not the case here. The strikers at
this place took possession of the train,
overpowering the Uuited States marshal
and his thirty deputies.
Marshal Bede told the mob that he rep
resented the United States government;
that the train Was under the protection OF
the government. and that anyone interfer-
ing with it Was liable TO arrest and i'm
prisonment. The crowd yelled in derisiou.
The mob forced the train between a long
line of freight Cars on the switch. The
cars were detached and then the strikers
seized Engineer Ayott, whom they called
a "scab," aud his fireman, and bodily re-
moved them from the engine. Archie
Bogard a striker, taking the engineers
pl zee, seat the engine running through
the yards Later in the evening Marshal
Bede again secured possession OF the train
and took it to Kandiyohi, where it now
stands. No trains have left here since yes
terday, aud strikers say none will be
allowed to leave.

to Avenge a Snub.

NEW YORK, April 2l.-The Morning
Advertisers Charleston. w. Va, dispatch
states that the money to push Madeline
Poilard's suit was furnished by Mrs,
Calderon Carlisle, in satisfaction of a
grudge against the Breckenridge family.
One day while at Sulphur Springs"
says the account, Miss Thomas was
thrown into contact with W. c. p Breck-
iuridge. and the Kentuckians snub5ed her
most numerically. She was stung
TO the quick and vowed never to
let pass an opportunity to avenge the
snub. One who does not understa AID the
veuomous hate of which the southerners
are capable would suppose her dislike for
the Breckinridges would have had time TO
cool, but not so. When she heard of Mr.
Breckinridge's marriage to Mrs. Wing
and learned of his lsison with Madeline
Pollard. she at once set on foot efforts TO
bring about an evening up for her grudge
against the Kentucky colonel, which has
succeeded beyond her fondest hopes
1T is the general belief that Mrs. Black
burn was the leader in the matter, but
this is not the case. She probably took "a

dav.
About the only weak spot in this district
was the refusal TO strike OF the 500 miners
of the New York and Cleveland aud Gas

OF the features of the strike in the district
is the large foreign contracts TO be filled by
Pittsburg firms. The contract with the
Canadian Pacific is for $50, 900 tons at 40
cents.
