which has been spread over Maryland, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia since last Satur-
day in an effort to apprehend the GRIM
inals who held up and sacked the express
at Aqua creek Friday last has finally
drawn into its meshes three men whom
the officials are confident were concerned
in the robbery. Early this morning man
who answers the description of one of
those wanted was arrested at Cumberland,
Md. Over $1,000 was found on him. of
which all the greenbacks showed evidence
OF the perforation of needles by which all
Adams express money is stitched to the
envelopes in which ii is contained. This
is considered the most damaging and con-
vincing evidence against him, although his
inability to give an account of himself and
other circumstances go TO make stronger
case. He gives the name of c. j. Searcy,
|. Of Fort Dodge. Kan. Another man was
arrested at Cherry Run yesterday. He is
a desperate character, having held up a
number of men with a revolver before he
was arrested. He answers the description
of another man implicated. The third is
said to be at Berkely Springs, though the
location of the last two men is being kept
quiet by the authorities. The express off,
Gals and detectives are delighted at the
captures and now feel sure that the appre-
henson of the remainder of the gang will
be accomplished soon.

FOR ATTEMPTED BRIBERY.
Mrs. Warren Springer, Wife of Chi
cagO Millionaire, in the Laws Grip.

CHICAGO, Oct. H.-Mrs. Warren Spring
er. wife of the Chicago millionaire. has been
indicted for attempting bribery. Mrs.
Sprnger's alleged attempt at corrupting
a juryman was made during a suit for the
condemnation OF some of her husbands
property. brought by the Metropolitan ele-
waited railway. The witnesses before the
grand jury on whose testimony the indict-
ment was found were George w. Marmon,
the juror whom ii was sought TO corrupt;
Josephine Marmon, his wife, to whom the
unlawful propositions are alleged TO have
been made by Mrs. Springer. and Mrs.
Louise Snyder, who was at Mrs. Marmon's
house on the occasion of one of Mrs.
Sprnger's visits. The Indictment of Mrs.
Springer was opposed at first by some of
the jurors, who thought that as money
had actually been paid over in furtherance
of the attempt no case for bribery could
stand. The grand jury was instructed that
the attempt TO bribe. though unsuccessful,
was a crime, and so the indictment was
voted. 1t is said the case was withheld
from the grand jury preceding the present
one on account of rumors OF undue infiu-
ence brought TO bear on one or more men,
bers.
Mrs Springer is a pretty woman. ap-
twenty-six years old. Her maiden name
was Ferguson. and she comes OF an old
and weil-known family in Newark. o.

Boyd, son of his victim, addressed the
crowd from the courthouse steps begging it
to disperse, because" he said, 'T do not
want valuable lives sacrificed in an attempt
to destroy worthless life.'' The mob
hooted him and he went away. The dis
patch says that Colonel Coft, the military
commander in the Jail, warned the mob
that if it broke in the doors the soldiers
would fire. When the door was broken
and the soldiers did fire, some
one shouted: They are firing blank car
tridges." 1t was some time before the mob
realized that deadly bullets were coming
at them. and when they did they fled in all
three persons were hit.
A later dispatch says at II 80 tonight the
mob is diminishing. and that it is believed
that when the Cincinnati regiment arrives
and the prisoner is taken to Columbus on
a special all trouble will be over. Tonight
the soldiers in the Jail fired on all sus--
picious persons, as they feared the jail
would be blown up with dynamite.

Another man was bayoneted through the
finger. while a bayonet was thrust through
the clothes of another. Deputies with re-
volvers drawn guarded the prisoner in the

MONTREAL, Que, Oct. I7.-Mgr. Satolli,
who is here on a visit. in speaking of the
A. p. A. said: II do not think that these
associations which so ostracise the Catho-
lies from every position of profit and honor
constitute permanent or serious danger.
Like the Know-nothing movement they are
founded on ignorance and prejudice, which
will be dispelled and pass away. They will
have a beneficial effect in this way: that
they will make Catholics more jealous for
the defense and propagation of their faith,
but such movements also indicate the me-
cessity on part of being prudent and
moderate, and avoid the danger every
thing which appeals to sectarianism may
cause in a mixed country like America"

He saw the error he had made,
And took out fifty more.
Old age comes on, and silvery locks
Have crowned this worthy sage;

The sunshine of old age.
Alas, one night an angel came
10 take his soul away,
TO bear life that's free from blame
TO realms of Endless Day.

Said he, "rhe Mutual Life is sound,
Twill pay you when die.
And when Em gone 10 realms above,
And you shall happy be,
Remember that it was my love
That left this legacy
Then happily he closed his eyes,
A smile played on his face;
He with an easy conscience dies,
And money takes his place.
