ARRESTED OVER A RING
Young Girl Taken From a Rail Room for
Wearing a Diamond.

The police court room last night was
the scene of a sad picture Of distress.
A young girl dressed in ball attire was
seated at one of the tables sobbing as
though her heart would break. She was
not the picture of many scenes in this
room. In fact, she was handsome and
nothing Of a criminal nature was depic-
ted upon her countenance. She was
young, not over II, and just blooming
into womanhood. This was the picture
beheld there last night when reporter
for the Eagle called to see what news
had occurred.
The girl proved to be Eta Young,
whose father lives at 900 East Douglas.
Upon inquiry as to the cause of her
being there it was found that Harry
Sutton had found her at dance on
South Topeka and on one of her fingers
was found a diamond ring, answering
the description of one which had been
stolen from Mrs. Irene Bryan and
hence the arrest, pending an investiga-
ton. From Eta Young the following
story was learned between her sobs
and wishing that she was dead.
1.-TWO weeks ago 1 began working for
Mrs. Bryan and on Saturday, April 25
went to the postoffice and there re-
ceived a box from Cleveland, O., con-
tanning this ring which wore tonight to
the dance There was no letter with
the ring and 1 supposed that my brother
WHO was there at that time had sent
1t to me.
81 put the ring on and wore it that
day as l always have on every occasion
when / went out. 1 went that day to
Mrs. Ballord and had dress made.
She spoke about the ring and told her
al oh II nj Len cnn reH sna ri m
Lille Trenaine and others. I never
knew anything about Mrs. Bryan losing
a ring and never heard of IT until to-
night when Harry Sutton came in.
'I know that L can prove myself clear
of the charge. but then 1 will be ruined
by being arrested. 1 know 1 am poor,
but am honest and though am forced
to work out, am not a thief"
Just then Mrs. Ballard, the dress
maker came into the court room ac-
companied by her husband. and when
told what Eta had said about the ring
substantiated every word. She said
that the girl had the ring on the Satur-
day before the Odd Fellows anniversary
and she left with her husband to see
Mrs. Bryan if there could not possibly
be a mistake as she heard that Mrs.
Bryan's ring had been taken since Eta
had hers in her possession.
Officer Sutton reluctantly gave out
the following:
-Four days ago Mr.. Bryan placed the
matter in the hands of the police con-
corning the theft of a $50 diamond ring
and myself and Bedford Wood have
been working up the case. 1 went to
the dance and I noticed the ring on
Etta's hand and made the arrest I
hope the birl will prove her innocence
as everybody speaks wen Of her. and 1t
was not with the hopes that she would
be proven guilty made the arrest. II
is a sad case and her father is sick at

State Fair Association by Adding Running
Races are Receiving Commentator.
The State Fair association, in placing
running races in their program for 1896,
have made host OF friends among the
horsemen. Now all will be satisfied
and accommodated. Look out for the
finest field Of jumpers ever given the
word Coin the southwest. There are
now enquiries coming in for stall room
for several strings Of runners. Get
posted up and come and take a hand in
the fun The business men, who are
well aware what the fair week is TO
them, should talk the state fair on
every occasion, so as to keep up the in
tereSt. The railroads are doing what
they can to interest the people along
their lines to get ready with such stock
and Kansas products as they have and
are now having their agents TO talk up
excursions, which will be run each day
TO the Greatest State Fair Kansas has
ever had.
Let each farmer and stock raiser in
Kansas join in seeing who raises the
best. The extra inducements that will
be offered for general displays of coun-
ty products will bring Kansas products
nearer together than they have ever
been.
A letter from the great Sunny Slope
farm of Emporia says they will try and
excel their exhibits of 1895, which Of it
self will be the largest single display OF
Hereford cattle ever on a state fair
grounds in Kansas.
With the present grain and fruit crop
prospect there is no doubt but what
there will be a greater demand for space
than ever before.
AS 1896 will be big political year and
a big crop year, let us also make 1t
the biggest State Fair yearEon record.

The First NJ. E. church last night was
a scene of activity, beauty and inspira-
! ton. 1t was beautifully decorated with
house plants, while about the pulpit
and upon the walls were to be seen ap-
propriate decorations and notices be-
fitting the occasion. T>e church was
filled to overlooking with young people,
the very picture Of health, and OF
course, the young ladies predominated
which but added grace and charm 10
, the visitor as he entered the sacred
walls of the edifice.
The occasion was the reception given
by the young men OF the Epworth
League of the church to their friends.
1t was truely a masculine affair, and
the sterner sex had full charge Of every
thing, program, songs, recitations,
music, cake baking, ice cream, straw
berries, etc, etc. The ladies were the
guests and were only allowed TO grace
the occasion by their presence and par
take Of the delicacies prepared by their
brothers, or somebody else's brother.
Professor Sickner opened the services
of the evening with a solo upon the
great pipe organ. which was duly APP
preciated and enjoyed by all.
Then came the league song by the fol-
lowing quartette: Minick, Kirkwood,
Manning and Hickman.
This was followed by the piopa solo
by Mr.. Casper Haynes, in which he gave
one of his own contributions and of
course he received an ovation, as he al
ways does.
Mr.. Darling then gave a recitation in
which his representation of characters
and voice was so perfect that he was
forced TO respond not only once but
twice to the continuous encore which he
received.
Mr.. H. Imboden has often received
fiattering concentrations on his base
solos, but last night those present voted
that his singing was the best of any of
his efforts.
The program was concluded by a
piano duett by DR.. Minick and Profess
sor Sickner.
Then came the feast Of the evening,
and beneath huge japanese umbrella
Charles Hatton and Harry Stanley sup
piled all with the choicest of lemonade,
which was a genuine article and no
mistake.
The following young men dressed
with white caps, white jackets and
aprons waited upon those who gathered
around the various tables: Dan Parkin-
son, Murray KirKwood, Tommy Muir
ply, Harry Stanley. Otis Cove. Peerce
TORY, Ed Campbell. VIII and Robert
Parker, James Woodward, Oscar Ward.
Several hours were spent in feasting
and good cheer and at late hour those
present adjourned, voting the entertain
ment given on May 5. 1896, by the young
men Of the Epworth League of the First
III. E. church as a grand success, and
as the reporter left the boys were wash
ing dishes and discussing fashions just
like their sisters.

The only evidence of insanity re-

While all this is true a verdict OF in

was the neucles OF a big case that reach
ed the appellate court yesterday. II
shows how small things can cause big
| trouble in this world.
Joseph T. Dickerson was a lawyer at
| Marion while that old law known as
senate bill 80 was still In force. Under
this law when a man boarded a train
without a ticket the conductor was su-
thorized to collect an excess fare.
Mr.. DickerSon was at the town OF
Hillsboro and as ne WIS returning home
he went into the station 10 buy a ticket
/ but the office window was closed. There
was, however. an agent in the depot,
but being a stranger there he sold tick
cts in the Office without opening the win
dow, which was the usual place Of sale.
He waited al the window until the train
arrived and then he boarded n. He
had exactly 80 cents in his pocket and
the fare was 81 cents 10 Marion. When
the conductor came around Mr.. DECKER
son rendered him the 81 cents fare bu.
the conductor demanded an excess fare
Of 10 cents under senate bill So Mr..
Dickerson did not have 10 cents AMI
therefore could not give x up. The
train was running and the conductor in
sisted on the excess fare or said that he
would have TO put Mr.. Dickerson OF.
He accordingly stopped the train and
Mr.. DickerSon went 10 the last step with
the conductor after him. Then Dicker-
son halted and said the conductor
would have TO force him on. The az
fair was geuteel all round and when the
conductor put his hand on Mr.. DECKER
cons shoulder the latter jumped OF. He
then walked under the August sun
eight mOles 10 Mario. In due time he
sued the Santa Fe company getting some
thing like s270. The railroad company
took an appeal TO the appellate court
and the case was argued yesterday as
stated. G. W. Hurd represented the
Santa Fe company and Judge Dean OF
Marion represented Mr. Dickerson
