A HUMOROUS PRISONER.
Willie Wheeler, With a Face Like an End
Man, Arrests for burglary.

Willie Wheeler. with a Face Like an End
Man, Arrestt for Burglary.
Willie Wheeler, a bad colored youth
much wanted in both Topeka and Law
renee, WAS captured in the woods west of
Town last night by Deputy Sheriffs Dan
Jones and Delaney Wilkerson. Wheeler
was serving term on the county rock
pile for larceny, when he escaped last
September, and hadn't been seen around
Topeka until yesterday He had put in
most of mis- time among the toughs of
North Lawrence. Last week he with
several confederates burglarized Law
renee house and skipped town. Sheriff
Hindman has been very desirious of
getting him.
When word was received that Wheeler
was home in North Topeka last evening,
two policemen were first sent after him.
Willie has been living with relatives in
a shanty close to the river bank in Red
knoxville. The officers saw Wheeler run
into the house, but when they got there
he WAS gone. An investigation showed
an ingenious preparation for just such
an emergency. Under the house is
cellar concealed by a trap door. At one
side of the cellar is a tunnel Just large
enough to crawl through, leading nearly
fifty feet up the river and opening out
beneath the bluff of the river. Wheeler
had made his escape and taken to the
woods.
Then Deputy Sheriffs Jones and Will
kerson started for the colored boy. They
finally located him hiding in tall weeds.
He was locked up in the county Jail and
will probably have to serve out his fine
and costs here before the Douglas coun-
ty authorities can get chance at him.
Wheeler is the most humorous colored
boy ever confined in the county Jail He
has a face that any end man might we'll
envy. and it is constantly wreathed in d
smile that keeps those around him in a
happy frame of mind. He appears to
steal because it's in him and he can't
help it.

INDIANA'S RIOT.
The Grand Jury is Investigating the
Legislative Fight.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. April 2-The
county grand jury has began an investi-
cation of the riot that took place in the
state capitol on the closing night of the
session of the late legislature. The first
subpoenas the jury ord cred issued were
for men who witnessed the scenes at the
hall of the house on the night in ques-
ton.
Michael Cain, engineer of the build
ing, told the story of the struggle in the
elevator between himself and Secretary
King on one side and representatives
Allen, Adams of Park, and Boardman on
the other.
He told the jury that if he had not
struck Adams of Park and forcibly taken
the elevator lever from him, Secretary
King would have been crushed to death
Myron D. King, the governors private
secretary. will be asked to tell his story
to the grand jury Representatives Ad-
ans and Alien are also invited to appear

BEEF PRICES GO UP.
Dealers in New York Advance Them Two
Cents n Pound.

Dealers in New York Advance Them Two
Cents Pound.
NEW YORK, April 2-Tae retail price
of beef was advanced about two cents
a pound a week ago by retail dealers in
this city ostensibly on account of an adj
vance on the price of cattle at the Chicago
stock yards. The advance hs~ become
general, and mutton has slso advanced
from one to two cents pound
Louis Ottmann, of William Gilman &
Co, the Fulton market butchers and
packers, who were among the last to ad-
vance their family prices, said to a re-
porter last night:
THE advance is absolutely necessary,
and should the present scarcity of cattle
continue another advance of the same
amount will be made We have been
for a long time paying more for beef
than before, but did not advance till
today because we think that the
dealers should share any hardship of
this kind with their customers. The adj
vance is only a division between con-
sumner and seller of the increased cost of
meat to the dealers. The advance on
live stock extends to Texas cattle as we'll
as to all others"

he returned, and as president of the
parliament successfully advocated the
Duke of Aosta's candidature to the
throne He went to Italy to summon
the duke, On whose accession as AmadeO
/, Gorilla became prime minister and re-
ceived, almost alone among nOnrOyal
personages, the famous Order of the An
nunziata.
During the time that he held Office
he extended to the Spaniards liberties
which they had not formerly enjoyed
and carried out many beneficial reforms.
His actions then as a statesman and a
reformer gained for him a lasting popu-
larity. but before he had time to pass
or develop all his projects more political
upheava ais disturbed the country. Anna
dec abdicated, and Gorilla accompanied
him to Portugal. Presently he returned
to Spain; but, having how allied him
self with the Republicans, he was again
ordered to leave the country and in
1875 went to Paris.
From that time until his return to
Spain the other day, from what since
1879 had been a voluntary exile, he
lived in England, France or Switzerland
and is believed to have been the insti-
gator of every conspiracy that has dis
turbed the peace of Spain
My faith in the triumph Of the re-
public" Gorilla declared some time
ago, is greater than ever, because never
has the situation of the country been so
clear, nor the monarchists so impotent.
The monarchy is hated by a great part
of the Spanish people, timidly defended
by its most ardent partisans. tolerated
only for fear of greater evils by an i'm
Iortant part of the population, who
never venture to say in public what
they say by their firesides and to their
friends. -
