Not Bt Bribed.
Frankfort, KY, Feb. 3.-The warden
of the Kentucky penitentiary, Major
r. A. Hancock, attempted to kill a
man who insulted him.
A stranger, representing himself as
the vice president of a certain north
ern company manufacturing leather
seats for chairs, tried to sell the peni-
Tertiary a big lot Of goods. He sat
about the Office until he and the major
were alone. Then he handed the ma
for an envelope.
The major finally opened It and
found a 500 gold piece. Major Han
cock is a very mild man, but when his
integrity is questioned he becomes un-
reasonable. He knocked the visitor
down and tried to cut his throat with
a pocketknife.
The vice president said he would
sign a paper telling why he offered the
insult, and the major released his
grasp. The paper stated that a Chica-
go man told him that this was the way
to get contracts at all prisons, and par :
ticularly in Kentucky.

A SERIOUS
MISTAKE
Made By an Indiscreed Physi-
clan at LaurelviIle.
Girl Who Was In Delicate Condition
Died Very Suddenly In fiis
Office, and the
CORONER HOLDS HIM RESPONSIBLE.

Laurelville, o., Feb. miss Bessie
Men. 20, of Adelphi, came here osten-
sibly to visit friends, and soon after
her arrival DR.. s. II. Samson announced
that she came into his Office in great
distress and asked to be allowed to lie
down.
He says he allowed her to go to his
bedroom, and in a short time when he
went to look after her he found she
was dead.
The coroner was at once notified,
and when it was discovered that the
girl was in a delicate condition his
suspicion was aroused.
After most searching investigation,
and the finding Of strong poison in the
victims stomach, the coroner rendered
a verdict that the girls death was the
result of some drug administered by
DR.. Samson for the purpose Of per-
forming a criminal operation.
AS soon as the verdict was an
nounced a mob of about 300 men sur
rounded Samson's house for the pur-
pose of lynching him, but the consta-
BILE, with an armed guard, finally sue
ceeded in driving the mob back and
placing Samson in the village Jail.

Southeast Kansas Coal Miners,
Near Pittsburg, Strike.
Breakers on Screens and Com
pulSOry Doctors Fees
CAUSE THE TROUBLE.
Junction City Has a Murdered
Woman Mystery.
Farmers of Crawford County
Losing Hogs From Cholera.

Pittsburg, Dec. ia strike is in pro-
gress among the employees at the West
ern Coal and Mining company's mines
at Fleming, about seven miles south
west Of this city.
On last Wednesday the employees de-
manded that the company take out the
breakers on the screens. and two days
were given the company to comply with
the demand. Friday there was a meet
ing of the miners, the company not yet
having complied or given animation
that they intended to do so. What the
result of the meeting was can only be
guessed, but from the actions of the
miners Saturday on refusing to work it
is taken that they are still anxious that
their demands be complied with. An
other demand is now attached to the
first one, and that is the adjustment Of
the compulsory doctors fees. President
Connery, of the United Mine Workers,
was in the city this morning, and was
ing. He had notification in regard to
the trouble, and was then on his way
to FrOntenac, he admitted, and to other
points, to confer with members of the
executive board in regard to taking
suitable action in the event that the
contention between the miners of Flen-
ing and the Western Coal and Mining
company should spread to other shafts.
The executive board will be compelled
to map out a line of action in case of
trouble. The compulsory doctor fees
are said to be the subject of much dis
cussion among the miners, and they are
looked upon as one of the grievances of
which the miners VSASuld make an effort
to rid themselves.
