On the Part of the Defense.

The News-Tribune this morning.
which is supposed to speak for Audi
tor johnson, says:
Rumors have been flying about the
city the last two days, accelerated
and multiplied by some persons, in
respect TO an unaccounting of school
funds that have passed through the
county auditors office. The county
auditor has cheerfully submitted to
the examination of the matter by an
expert appointed by the county, and
assures his friends that nothing will
be found that he cannot satisfactorily
answer and adjust in five minutes.
He is out of the city, and his friends
and the public generally will pay
little heed to these magnifying ru-
mors until after the thorough inves-
tigation which has been courted, and
which every assurance has been
given of the auditors readiness to
meet.

DODGE COUNTY SENSATION.
1t Almost Rivals the Famous Hall Con-
spiracy Case.


From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.
The towns of Chauncey and Eastman
are torn up over a sensation, the like of
which has not been known there since the
famous Hall conspiracy was unearthed.
The sensation involves the arrest of a
number of wen known citizens, who are
charged with having planned and com
mitted the bold and startling robbery
which took place in Chauncey on the night
OF oct. 81.
On that night the safe in the Southern
depot was blown open and $3.50 of the
Southern Express Company's money
taken, while the storehouse of Bush &
Smith was broken into, the safe blown
open, and $500 in cash and four gold
watches stolen.
The town of Chauncey was considerably
excited over the robbery and detectives
were at once put to work on the case,
two negroes finally being arrested on sus-
plcon and sent to jail in default of a
s., 0J0-bond each Detective c. A. AVant
of Macon was one of the officers sent
down TO investigate, and he thinks he has
fastened a chain of evidence about GER
tain prominent citizens of Chauncey,
which viii convict them of having par
icipated in the crime. The parties whom
Detective Avant duplicates in the rob
berry are, besides the two negroes: Seth
Spivey and William Thomas. Wat wilcox,
an eN-ma~shal Of Chauncey; Sam Cum
ard, also an ex-marshal: Henry Forrest:
judge J. ID. Mccormick, justice of the
peace, and several others, all of whom,
he says have been arrested, and are in
jail at Eastman, according 10 advices re-
cgiNed by HIM yesterday from DeLacey
& Bishop, the attorneys for the prosecu-
tion a Eastman.

 The Political HeeIers.

Of all characters in the world who attach unto themselves supreme dis gust the political heeler occupies the most conspicuous place. He is found on every street corner, in eyersaloon and at every public retreat They do not, however, confine themselves to such places; theX will go into a mans office, into his store, and even into his home and besiege him with q long story about"how many votes l control and when the creature of heroic nerve and unprecedentedb brass finds that he has about exhausted the time and patience of his victim, he will wind up his story with the climax ''lend me dollar" yes five, ten, twenty or fifty of them. Their gall along this line having no limit | A few days ago we heard a candi- date and a heeler in conversation. Me caught only part of his song. Said the heeler: 'I have considerable influence with those fellow WIS, ''-mean- ing certain organization iii the city -''and I'm going to vote every one of them for you; but I'll tell you, it will take little stuff and of course you can afford to put it up.
 How much do you think it will take?" inquired the candidate.
 We did not catch the reply. but We SAW the candidate go down into his trousers and hand Mr heeler bill. Our curiosity was aroused and we decided to watch the perambulations of the heeler
 Tn less than one hour we saw him in conversation with one of said can didate's opponents We did not have an opportunity te hear the conversation, but we are satisfied he made a pull'' oa this second candi- date. The heeler did net succeed so well this time for Mr Candidate took him into saloon and called for two beers.
 Another instance: A few evenings ago Il gronp of gentlenen were standing on the corner of Main and Barraque discussing politics. Two candidates were In. the crowd. Pres ently up stepped one Of these ' leg gers in grand and brazeA gnsto. He had not been in the assembIage ten
