RIPLEY COUNTY LYNCHERS.
Attorney General Leaves Town-Spec-
uIation Upon the States Course.

Attorney General Ketcham left the city
last night, but not for Versailles. He has
gone in the opposite direction, having a
case in court in Marion to-day. There
were no new developments yesterday in the
proposed prosecution of the lynchers by the
State. but something is confidently expected
to happen next week. Much speculation is
INDUCED in as to what the steps are that
the state is about to take, but no intima-
ton from the authorities is obtainable on
the subject. All that can be learned is that
the attorney general has made several
propositions to the Governor which are said
to be of a courageous character, any one
of which, If adopted as a line of action,
would place the lynchers in a tight posi-
ton. Already there is great anxiety re-
ported in Ripley county, where the states
impending action is no secret. The most
plausible theory Of what the state intends
doing has it that affidavits against all the
members of the mob will be filed with the
justice of the peace or Circuit Court.

HAD AN EXCITING TIME
NEGRO RUNS AMUCK IN A WEST
WESTINGHOUSE. DRUG STORE.
Plenty OF Shooting and Smashing of
Glass, but Nobody Seriously In
jured in the Melee.

There was a succession of exciting incl
dents at Messrss Clay & Thornburg's drug
store, on Washington street, west of SEN
ate avenue, shortly after 10 o'clock last
night, and it is rare good fortune that the
services of an undertaken were not re-
quired. The habitues of the store were
suddenly aroused by the screams of a wom-
an on the pavement outside, and a colored
woman came flying through the door.
eagerly hunting II telephone and begging
protection, She was well-nigh disrobed,
and bore every appearance of hard usage.
Without waiting to summon police assist
ance she fled by the rear entrance and dis
appeared. Almost instantly viii Kinney, a
colored man, residing at No. AIT West
Washington street. sprang through the
front doorway with his hand on his hip,
and warning the people inside to bring
out the wench" or he would turn himself
loose.
Thomas Moore, a pleasant-faced young
fellow, who assists in the store after night
fall told Kinney the woman had gone, and
begged him to make no trouble. Just then
some one sounded police whistle in the
street and Kinney ran to the sidewalk
swearing ne would FIX him and then fin
ish the store, and he made particular
threats against Moore. The latter picked
up a revolver lying behind the counter, and
when Kinney reappeared, more threatening
than ever. he hred one shot and Kinney
fed to the street. Almost instantly he
turned back and seized a large lamp. which
he flung at Moore, shivering it into hun
dreds of pieces and breaking a case in the
rear of the store. He started to grab an
other lamp, vowing this time to wreck the
store, and then Moore began shooting as
fast as he could pull the trigger. but he
only succeeded in breaking a plate-glass
window in front Kinney was slightly cut
by the flying glass as he ran out.
The police. aroused by the shooting
placed Kinney under arrest, and Mr.. Moore
was taken into custody but was released
on bail, it being clearly apparent that he
had acted in self-defelSe. The woman was
recognized as Emma Shepherd, whose resi-
dence is unknown.
After the battle was over Moore was de-
lighted to find that none of his shots had
that he was never so frightened in his life
as he expected to be murdered by Kinney
who acted like a mad man.
James Shepherd was arrested later
charged with interfering with an officer. He
claimed that he was only seeking TO pro-
tect his daughter. The Shepherd woman
was found at her home and placed under
arrest She had met Kinney earlier In the
evening near the yellow Bridge and had
engaged in quarrel which terminated
only when Kinney calamity knocked heI
into the canal and took TO his heels. She
scrambled out of her involuntary ice-wateI
hath as best she could and ran home. After
DOMINIC dry clothing she again started
down street and met Kinney on Washing
ton street, when ne again assaulted heI
and she ran into the drug store for pro-
lection.

WHEN HE SHOT HIS WIFE.


Prosecutor Wiltsie asked him if he did not
remember that it was almost impossible to
get his wife before the grand jury to testify
against him in that case. Brdgewater said
he knew nothing about it. He was let off
with ten days Imprisonment in this case
Bridgewater related the circumstances of
this shooting He claimed he shot his wife
accidentally. He and his wife formerly lived
in West Indianapolis in the house with an
other colored man. Bridgewater became
jealous of the attentions of this man to his
wife and after they came away from the
suburb he still harbOred some lingering sus-
picions. One evening his wife informed him
she was going out to visit a friend on the
North Side She started out and Bridge
water followed. He came across her near
the Grand Hotel waiting for a car. She took
Leaving the car in the suburb she started in
the direction of the house where they had
formerly lived. Bridgewater, believing she
was about to keep an engagement with the
he suspected. trafled her closely. He
came upon her in the yard and thought he
could discern two people in the darkness
He drew his pistol and fired intending to
shoot the man. The instant he shot his wife
cried out that his bullet had struck her in
the leg There was no man there. Bridge
water picked the woman up In his arms
and carried her TO the home of one of their
friends.
Superintendent Of Police Quigley was
called to testify as to the story told him by
Bridgewater, after the latter had been
brought here from Chicago. Superintendent
Qugley's evidence was similar to that given

Taking The KCelcU Cure.

EDITOR HERALD: New York papers
and some of our newspapers near
home are heralding the fact that Jen-
ME O'Neil Potter, the noted elocu-
zionist, has entered the Bellevue hos
pital, helpless victim of alcoholism,
to take the Kelley Cure. The New
York Journal has a three-column
write-up of the matter.
Perhaps one of the meanest things
a newspaper can do is to publish the
fact that a man has gone to the Keel
ey hospital. 1t is usually done by
cowardly editors for the purpose CT
damaging permanently the unfortu-
nate person so advertised. This
seems worse, if possible. when the
victim held up to public gaze is a
lady. There is no difference morally
between the person who signifies his
intention of turning from his evil
ways by arising at revival meeting
and the one who bares his soul to the
multitude by announcing that he will
turn back from the consequences OF
liquor drinking. Both desire to right
a wrong to themselves that is strictly
their own business and nobody's else.
Jennie O'Neil Potter was a ire
mendous worker, having accomplish
ed wonders during her brief public ca
reer. From the night of her highly
successful production Of ''Fanchon,
the Cricket" to large Minneapolis
audience, to the present time, her life
has been filed with intense excitement
and unremitting toll.
Naturally she possessed a very ner-
vous temperament. and the work told
so strongly on her nervous system
that she resorted to stimulants, with
deplorable results. During her visit
to Grant county last fall. she con-
sumed so much alcoholic stimulants
that the matter became public prop
