TISHE FAYETTEVILLE NEWS of

y last week says: About forty
convicts from Fort Smith occupied a
car on the north bound train yester-
day afternoon to be forwarded TO pris-
ons in Detroit and Albany. A jollier
and more hilarious set of vagabonds
never fattened on government rations
than this molly crowd OF rogues. a
large force of students collected under
the windows Of the car and guyed them
numerically. The train pushed out
and as the cars rolled away score of
arms were put out of the window and
the hats of number of the jeering
cubs were lifted from their heads and
carried away to adorn the cranium of
as many cut throats."
