were on the bank, and from this the de-
tective concluded that the young man,
in his zeal, had entered the stream in
pursuit of the bundle, and Mr.. Barnes
decided to await his return before pro-
ceeding further with his plan. As the
minutes passed, however, first Virginia
and then Mr.. Barnes himself became
alarmed at Everly's prolonged absence,
and be was about to make some search
when loud shout arrested their attsn-
ton. 1t came from the direction of the
dam, aud Mr.. Barnes realized at once
that EVERY, instead Of following the
bundle which had just been thrown
over, had gone under the dam in search
of the original one. A few moments
later he was seen emerging from among
the timbers which supported the dam,
presenting a very wretched and bedrag-
gled appearance. He held large bun.
die in his hands and exclaimed as he
came toward them:
"God bless you, Mr.. Barnes, you
were right. As soon as saw your bun
die catch I could not wait, but taking
off my coat / went under the dam and
searched for what we were after. What
is more, found 1t not ten feet the 9th

by him and returned to the farm, where
the detective insisted On change Of
garments for Everly before he would
examine the bundle. When it was OPEN
ed, Virginia claimed that she recognized
the clothes as those worn by Marvel on
the night Of the murder. Mr.. Barnes
next searched the pockets of the vest,
which Marvel had designated as the
garment wherein he had placed the
medallion, and withdrawing his hand
laid before the delighted gaze Of the
others a locket, the exact counterpart
of the one found in the hand Of the
cornse.

"Do you know if your mother had

The Young Wen Dischnrred.

Yesterday the Mayors Court room
was crowded with people who were an
Nlous to know what disposition would
be made OF the two young men who had
fight at Wright Memorial church
Thursday night. Three of the official
board OF Wright Memorial church were
present. The young men were brought
into court upon summons
Mr.. T. j. Wool had been secured as
their attorney and when the case was
called he asked for the warrants and
was Informed that none had been issued,
but that one was then being made out
After the warrant was read Mr.. Wool
asked who had sworn to it and was told
that Mr.. King, one of the official board.
would, but when Mr.. King read the war
rant he declined to swear to 1t, as he did
not know of his own knowledge that
these were the parties who created the
disturbance.
Mr.. Townsend would not swear, neith-
Ell would Mr. John j. King. His Honor
told them that it was necessary that
some one should swear to It or he would
have to dismiss the case, but he thought
that 1t should be thoroughly investi-
gated.
Mr.. John T. King then asked that the
case be continued until next Wednesday.
He thought by that time he would be
able to ind some one who saw the trou-
Bile and would swear out the warrant.
His Honor told him that he could not
hold the young men, as there was no
charge against them, SO he discharged
them with the understanding that IL a
warrant was sworn out that the case
would be heard next Wednesday, other
wise 1t would not be.
After the case was disposed of seve-
raj parties who were present had a talk
with the Mayor about the matter, and
their impression was that the stewards
were more TO blame than the young men.
One gentleman, who acted as ushed, said
that after the church was filled with
people that the doors were locked and
then there would have been no trouble
if they had been kept closed. but some of
the stewards ordered them to be opened
and then the mass outside began to push
and shove. and 1t was impossible 10 keep
the crowd back. He further said that he
knew several persons who called them
selves ladies that deliberately stuck their
hat pins in young men to keep them
back. and that one young man had q
pin run nearly through his arm. Be
sides this the lights were turned out and
some one called out fire" and he
thought under the circumstances that
IL was almost a miracle that some one
was not killed. He claimed to know both
