FUGITIVE EX-MoNK ARRESTED.
Darnley Beaufort Must Answer to Charges
of Erand md Aasanlt.

OF FRAUD ana Assault
LOUISVILLE, Oct. 14-Darnley Beaufort
the deposed principal Of Gethsmne col
lege, near Bardstown, KY, was arrested
in this city on Saturday. and is now in
jail. The police have been searching for
Beaufort for some time, but were unable
to locate him. He says he has been in
Louisville and New Albany all the time
however.
The cause of Beaufort's arrest here was
a warrant sworn out by Mr., J. l.. Deepen,
a clothier charging him with obtaining
money under false pretenses. Beaufort,
in August last, gave Mr.. Deepen a check
for 800 on the Marion National bank,
which was protested. His case was called
in the police court on Saturday, but was
continued until Oct. 30
An officer from Bardstown arrived in
the city with two warrants for Beauforts S
arrest, charging him with committing
nameless offenses upon two boys who at
tended Gethsamne college. Beaufort re-
fused to give bail in the Deepen case
claiming that he would be rearrested and
taken TO Bardstown, where he said he was
afraid that he would be assassinated by
his enemies, and he thought it was safer
for him to remain in the Louisville Jail.
He claims that he will be able to clear
himself of all the charges against him at
the proper time In the Bardstown cases
bail was fixed at 81 900 each.

WILHELMs S CHARGES.

The ticket nominated by the Republican
party was selected by a majority of the voters
of the county. There was no undue ad-
vantage, or tricks or schemes resorted to to
accomplish it, While there may be one or two
that may not have been our personal choice,
yet it is our duty and the duty of every good
Republican to submit to the will of the
majority. Every party follower no matter
what may be his personal grievance, should
have but one object in view, and that the
success of the ticket in November. That
obtained will give US great advantage in the
Presidential contest next year.
Several days ago we had occasion to COM
ment upon the charges preferred against
County Chairman Payne by William Wilhelm,
Esq, and we have had no reason to change
our views in that respect. We still claim
that the election Of Mr.. Payne to that posi-
tion was not the wisest move, believing that
a man should have been selected who wasnot
prominently lueullutu WIN ellntI ldtlOns
But the candidates-the men who are per
sonally nterested-thought otherwise and
selected him to succeed himself.
As we have previously stated, the charges
are Of such nature that they cannot be over
looked by the County Chairman, in justice to
himself and the Republican party. If he is
innocent he need have no fear Of an investiga-
tion if the charges can be sustained the Re-
publicans of Schuylkill county should know
it.
The present time however, is not op-
perfume for chickering's of this nature. There
is too much at stake The question at issue
between Mr.. wilhelm and the chairman
can be deferred until after the election.
Submit the matter to the County Standing
Committee, some other reputable body Of
men, for decision, say ten days after cleo
ton. To do this will not compromise either
