CAPTURED AFTER 80 YEARS.
Arrest of Missourian Who Was to
Have Been Hanged in 1869.
RESEMBLES THE JESTER CASE.

BUTLER, Mo-, Aug 10 -Theophilus
r. Freeman, who escaped from Jail in
Bates county in 1869, four days before
he was to be executed for the murder
of James Westbrook, was arrested
yesterday by Sheriff L. c. Mudd ef
this county, near Ardmore. l. I.
The crime was memorable one in
the annals of this county 1t occurred
in 1869, while the western portion of
Missouri was almost wilderness.
Freeman was resident of Butler,
then hamlet containing only few
houses. He became infatuated with
Mrs. James Westbrooke, the wife of a
prominent citizen of tho town. Going
home one night Westbrook found
Freeman at his house. He ordered
him away. Freeman left On his way
home he was passed by several citi-
zens. He remarked that he was going
hunting and he proposed to shoot
some one. Securing gun and going
to Westbrook's house he called him to
the front gate At a distance of
twenty feet he sent load of buck
shot into his victim.
A posse headed by L. d. Condee,
now a leading lawyer OF Chicago,
started after Freeman and found him
after o two days search. A grand
jury was hastily summoned and in
dicted. Two days later his trial was
had and he was sentenced to be
hanged on December 18th.
On the night of December IL Free
man, who was confined in wooden
cell, pulled the planks loose from the
ceiling and effected his escape by
means of an attic window. The es'
cape made so shortly before the
execution caused great deal of
comment concerning w. L. Smith, the
sheriff at that time. Smith was
openly accused of having permitted
the escape for large sum of money.
No action was taken against Smith,
but every effort was made to find
Freeman. He vanished as completely
as if the earth had swallowed him.
The community organized posse
after posse and secured the
country on all sides, but no
trace of him could ever be found
About two years ago Sheriff Mudd OF
Bates county heard that Freeman was
in Oklahoma. He sent several depu-
ties down after him, but Freeman got
wind of their coming and sought
other haunts. The deputies returned
empty handed. He was heard OF
again in Nebraska, but could not be
located

HAVANA, Aug. 10 In view of the
fact that Colonel Bacallao, chief of
the secret police, persisted In his
declaration that General Jiminez, the
aspirant to the presidency of Santo
Domingo, was in Havana, either not
having left or having returned,
the military authorities photographed
to Cienfuegos instructing Cap
tain Stamper, collector of Gus
toms there, to ascertain whether
Jiminez was on the Menendez
steamer and to take him under arrest
il that should be the case. Just as
the steamer was about leaving Cien-
fuegos, Captain Stamper located jim
inez and arrested him. Jiminez de-
nounced the arrest as an outrage. He
said he had broken no law and would
not yield except to force. Captain
Stamper replied that he was ready to
use force if necessary, and Jiminez
then yielded remarking that he did
so only because he could not help
himself.

DESPERATE in PORTO RICO.
Inhabitants VIII starvo IL Aid Does Not
Reach Them Soon.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Aug. 49, =
Visits to the most distressed districts
of the island prove that the former re-
ports of terrible conditions have not
been in the least exaggerated. People
in the towns are huddled together
anywhere for shelter. In the country
they are sleeping in the open air.
The food supplies have been totally
destroyed. Only the well to do can
afford to buy provisions.
Unless aid comes in few days the
inhabitants will starve. Tho supplies
from San Juan have not yet arrived
at the towns, but the depots are al
ready surrounded by hungry persons.
At Yabucoa the police are obliged
to protect the peasants bringing in
fruit from the country, The situa.
ton there is most desperate. In the
district surrounding Mayaguez wo-
men, old men and children are home
less and begging shelter and food.
A Mayaguez paper reminds the
public that in the year 1s41 the city
was destroyed by fire. Two days
later the governor was personally dis
tributing $4,000 among those who
most needed it. The principal street
of the city bears his name in remem-
brance of this act. In Arroyo 90 per
cent of the houses were demolished
by the hurricane. At the Playa (port)
nothing remains.
Many prominent persons in Utuado
have signed an appeal to the public
asking food and work for the inhabi-
tants Two thousand persons have
persisted in this whole district

Nebraska Refuses to Contribute Money

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 19,-Governor
Poynter has abandoned the project of
providing special train for the First
Nebraska, and the disbanded volun-
teers will be forced to use the travel
ing allowance granted by the govern
ment. Over SIS 900 had been pledged
by private subscription, leaving $2O,-
900 still to be raised.
The governor issues proclamation,
in which he states that he resorted to
every possible measure to secure the
funds, without result. The proclama-
ton ends with an expression of regret
at Nebraska has failed to accord to
it's volunteers the same practical hon
ors given by other states. The rail-
roads are arraigned for indifference
to the interests of Nebraska, and for
lack of practical patriotism.
