"The Queen OF the Mines" Dis,urhs
Christian Endeuyorcrs

Steubeaviile, Ohio. Oct. GA sensa-
tionIl and dramatic occurrence hap
pened last night at a meeting OF the
Christian Endeavor societies of the
Second Presbyterian and Presbyterian
churches Of this city.
Honora Dohoney S a mlddle-aGed
Irish woman and a devout Catholic
She has become partially demented
lately through exposure and drink,
having kept saloon In Nineveh, a
rough portion OF the town. where she
was known because of her physical
proves as the queen OF the Irish
miners living around. She never called
or anybody to dcsist her to fire" un-
ruly men from her saloon, and IT has
frequently required six policemen to
handle her, No one or two policemen
eves had sufficient nerve to arrest her.
Her reputation is known to all this
city.
She visited the city. and seeing deco
atlons outside tho door, the yellow and
white colors OF the Christian F9ndeavor
society, yelled "a. j. A. and Orange
men: I'll make them go into the
chui ch," and she bolted mp the aisle.
The women. with blanched faces be-
gan 20 fee 10 another part of the
church, and the few men present were
afraid Of the crazy woman. After
cursing them and daring them TO fight
for 1--WE minutes, the police appeared
and she was hauled out Of the church,
kicking and struggling.
The Endeavorers who had been in
terrupted in their devotional exercises
sang safe in the Arms of Jesus" and
offered up prayer because OF their de-
liverence from hahn.
Honora had started in 10 upset the
furniture when arrested. She VIII

tne Times from Fredericksburg. Va.
gives IN detail the movements OF the
supposed train robber c. j. Searcy.
Inc bandit Is neither confined In stat.
tord county Jail or In the FredericSs-
burg prison, but at shutdown was taken
to the bridge tenders house at AQUA
creek, near the scene of the hold-up.
lie Is In the custody of Robert A.
Plnkerton, armed with Winchester:
sergeant Darlington OF this city and
commonwealth Attorney w II. White.
This point was reached after miles of
detour and all Indications would seem
10 give support 10 the belief that Pink
erton ana his party are on hunt for
treasure stolen from the express and
supposed to be buried
Searcy's manner Of speech shows that
treaty has been entered into between
them. Searcy was taken from the jail
here about noon and placed in cur
rlage, He was handcuifed to super
intendent Pinkerton. In the carriage
was basket filled with enough pro-
visions TO last the party for two days.
The commonweaI attorney also won't
along. a brief stop was made at
Brennock's Station. and the trip was
resumed to Stafford courthouse.
The correspondent asked Plnkerton
the object Of the excursion. "The time
is not ripe" he replied, but there will
be interesting developments later on"
The party left Bennoct's Station
without locking up their prisoner In
Stafford county Jail. Searcy is taking
Plnkerton and his associates TO the
spot near the Virginia line al Midland.
where II is said the thousands stolen
from the express car were buried. II
now seems that only three men were
engaged in the train robbery by infor-
nation gathered today.
