Hanged an Innocent Man.

WICHITA, KAs., April 20.-About
three years ago " cousins, Charles
and Jesse Hidden Of Paul's Valley, /. T..
together with a cook named George
Jones, left that place and went TO Ar
kansas, their purpose being TO trade
horses for cattle. The Hibdens never
returned and Jones was suspected Of
being their murderer. He was arrest
ed and on purely circumstantial evil
dence convicted Of numbering the Hib-
dens after a sensational trial.
Charred bones found in the remains
of a campfire and supposed 70 be those
OF the missing men were the strongest
witnesses against him. Jones insisted
that he was innocent and on the scaffold
declared that Jessie Hidden was a party
10 the murder, If not the principle, but
Jesse's bones were supposed to have
been found in the ashes where the MUIR
derers had cremated their victims to
cover up the crime. Jones, though
he had influential relatives, who ex-
hansted every resourc to secure a COM
mutation OF the sentence to life impris-
onment, was hanged.
Ii now develops that Jesse Hidden is
alive. He is serving a term for viola
ton of the Federal laws against selling
whisky to the Indians, he having been
e n from the Fort Smith court. The
discovery Of Hidden has created con-
siderable excitement In Paul's Valley.

soon became proficient and at the last
encampmeDt made splendid impression.
With the removal of Murdock McDuff,

place, Lieut.. u. ID. McNaughton was
made captain and Mr. Cudlp was pro-
NOTED one notch. Then when Colonel
Petermann took command OF the regi-
ment Capt McNaughton was made

today.
This evening the company puts on Tie
