TAYLOR GETS TWO YEARS.
He is Finally Sentenced for the Crime
He Committed.
OF COURSE THEY CUT IT DOWN.
Owing to the Fact that He Was Sentenced
August Ii Last, His Term Will
Date From Then-He Will be
In Eighteen Months.

PIERRE, Oct. 1.-THE supreme court
has given its decision in the Taylor case
and the defaulting treasurer will go to
the ~penitentlary Monday next to be
confined there for the coming eighteen
months. The court handed down it's
decree this morning and in it decided
that the section under which Judge
Gaffy sentenced Taylor to five years did
not cover the crime committed, but re-
ferred merely to embellishments from pri-
waite parties or corporations. The only
section. applicable to this case thu court
says, is section 669S Of the compiled
laws, which fixes the maximum at two
years Imprisonment and $1,000 fine, the
CRIME being the misuse or appropriation
OF public funds. The court also holds
that as the sentence Was pronounced on
August IA and as no other sentence has
been given since that time the punish
ment must begin and date from that
day. In other words the timeconsunaed
during the appeal must be deducted
from the sentence. This will make the
sentence run until August IA, 1897.
Under the new law enacted last winter
a convict Is allowed two months per an
mum good time, ana this will reduce the
time OF sentence by four months. or un-
til April IA. The actual incarceration
will run for exactly eighteen months.
Taylor will leave here for Sioux Falls on
Monday next. 1t is understood that
Mrs. Taylor will also reside in Sioux
Fails durang her husbands imprison-
ment.

Now Charles was overcome with Joy and
danced about like unto a boy with q
new pair OF suspenders and exclaimed:
"Such wisdom have | never before seen.
| promise thee more Charles . sayeth
William, "my first son shall bear thy
name Charles. !" And Charles made
reply, 20 William, whatsoev yer
thou deeireth shall be DONE" "Go thou

do likewise that We may each be glorified

Then after these things William and
Charles went forth to FAKE CHARLES, THE
SCRIBE IN as did James. And it is de-
clared by many Of the wise men OF the
tribe, even unto this day that he was so
badly taken in that he came nigh unto
never getting out.
Now Charles the Scribe, complained
not because OF the attentions OF William
and Charles the ~elector, for he had no
objections to being taken in, and while
he yet tarrled I'D the city Of Rapid all
things whatsoever he desired were given
unto him. But many Of the wise men
smile and heard to- exclaim "What fools
we mortals be-" land all Of the peo-
pic round about the city OF Rapid knew
OF these things and made merry concern
ing them.

TREE WITH A HANGING RECORD.
Furnished the GaIlows for Ten Men in
a Week.

Furnished the GaIlows for Ten Men in
a Week.
Down in our town we have an old
tree that has quite a history" said
John E. Hale, Of Seymour, Ind, to a
Chicago Inter Ocean man recently. "At
least it used to be a tree, but the relic
hunters have SO disfgured it thatit can
scarcely lay claim to that name now.
1t was Of the birch variety, and has a
history that is equaled by but few other
trees in the world. Upon its spreading
limbs dangled the forms of ten men in
less than a week. That tree aided in
it's feeble way in wiping out one Of the
worst gangs Of law-breakers that sec
ton has ever had. The tree is only a
short distance from the city, and the
place to this day bears the name Of
'Hang1nan's Cross Roads,
"This tree became famous early in
the COS, when the country round about
Seymour was infested with a gang of
bold highwaymen, who did not hest
tate to murder a man to obtain his
money if necessary. The first murder
was that Of a man by the name Of
Woodmansee in the old RAIDER hotel.
lie had some twenty-seven hundred
dollars on his person. His body was
carried from the hotel, and an effort
made to wash away all trace Of the
crime. The murderer of this man was
never convicted.
Several murders followed, always
committed with the object of robbery.
At last this grew too commonplace and
the gang sought bigger game. One
night late in the fall Of 1867 the Ohio
& Mississippi express was boarded at
about five miles. It is estimated that
at least four hundred thousand dollars
were taken. All evidence tended to
prove that the robbery was committed
by what was afterward known as the
Reno gang who lived at Seymour and
operated all the way from Omaha to
Cincinnati. The gang consisted of ten
persons. The express train robbery
was too much for the better element Of
Seymour and a vigilance committee
was organized, and one night in July.
1868, this company, all masked, took
Roseberry, Clifton and Elliott, three of
the Reno gang, from custody and
hanged them to this birch tree. On
the following Monday Gerald, Sparks
and Moore, three more. were treated in
a similar manner on this same tree.
The following Tuesday this vigilance
committee visited the Jail at New AL
bany, where four more of the Reno
gang were confined, and by morning
Frank Reno, Simeon Reno and a man
by the name of Anderson were dangling
from the same old beech tree. This
wiped out the Reno gang That old
tree is a landmark at Seymour, and it
has been badly disfgured by relic
hunters"

A child Rnrned 10 Death.

The Hagerstown lla1 says that
Cecil the l8-months-old son of Eugene
Bowers. canal boatman of Sharps-
burg, was burned to death Saturday
evening on his fathers boat, which Is
tied up at the Sharpsburg landing
The child was asleep and had been
placed in crib in the stern cabin by
Mrs. Bowers, who went into the for
ward cabin to attend to some work.
Shortly afterward the mother heard
the child screaming and ran back to
witness a frightful sight. The crib in
which the child lay was wrapped in
flames and the helpless little one writh-
ing in agony. Mrs. Bowers promptly
extinguished the fire and rescued her
son from his perilous condition. The
child's body was horribly burned. DR..
Garrett rendered medical attention.
After lingering few hours death re-
suited from the effects of the injuries.
The crib stood near a small stove at
the side of the cabin and It is thought
that a spark flew out and set fire to
the child's clothing.
