LOOKS DARK
FOR CURLY
The Alleged Confidence Man
Gets A Trial Today.
THE OFFICERS ARE EAGER
For His Conviction and 1t Is Claimed
That the Authorities Have SeCur-
ed Enough Evidence To Convict.

Sullivan is accused of having taken
about $50 from an Intoxicated man.
The alleged crime was committed on
Saturday night about three weeks ago
foreman from Earlham is the chief
complaining witness.
CURLY SULLIVAN S TRIAL.
Bright and early this morning an
effort was % ade to impanel q jury in
the district court to try Curly Sullivan
on the charge of theft from the per-
son.
A good many members of the reg
ular panel mad either formed an opin-
ion or were too well acquainted with
Sullivan's career and were challenged
by either the district attorney or coun-
sci for the defense. In this manner
the regular panel was exhausted with
out securing the necessary quota of
jurors, and to meet the deficiency
court adjourned until 2 o'clock this af
ternoon, to allow the sheriff tC summon
another special venire.
Eye witnesses testified before the
magistrate at the preliminary hearing
that the foreman was Intoxicated, and
after Keeling up to the Senate bar, re-
ouested Adam Dieter to keep q small
roll of bills for him. Dieter was busy
and did not comply Immediately.
Meantime Sullivan and a man called
"Red'' came in at the side door and in
some manner the foreman got between
them with his pocket containing the
money next to sullivan. The Intoxicated
man next complained that he had been
robbed, whereupon Adam Dieter
closed the doors and declared no one
should leave the place until the money
had been restored to its owner. He
then sent for q policeman.
In times past several unsuccessful ef-
forts have been made to convict SullI-

During the winter of 1897 Mr. James
Reed. one of the leading citizens and
merchants Of Clay, Clay Co., w. Va, !,
struck his leg against cake Of ice in
such manner as to bruise it severely.
1t became very much swollen and
panied him so badly that he could not
walk without the aid Of crutches. He
was treated by physicians, also used
several kinds of linimeut and TWO and
half gallons Of whiskey in bathing

he began using Chamberlain Pain

the stock, the cows in the pastures,
the hundreds Of sheep, whose wool was
needed, and, most carefully Of all,
after the hundreds of negroes, who
must be clothed and fed. Toward the
end Confederate money would buy
nothing. Why, I've paid as much as
s25 for spool of cotton thread. How
good, how faithful, how kind were the
negroes. What could they not have
done, with all tho white men gone to
war, had they been evil-minded? When
Sherman was marching through Caro-
lima, l was the sole white person, with
the exception Of my baby girl, on the
great plantation, among all the negroes.
My sisters were water-bound twenty
FIVE miles distant, and my mother was
in Richmond with my only brother,
who lay wounded unto death. But
the negroes never left me, and how
they loved and petted aud looked out
for me. My old negro nanny, Nam
my Liza, comforted me all the while,
saying: Never you min, honey, I'll
sleep in the big house with you and
she did in after years, when she was
free and enslavcd by sorrow, she
comforted me again. When my little
girl died she told me SO many beauti-
full things that kept my heart from
hardening. She never would leave
her white folks, as she called us, and
really died our slave, for there is no
master like love, and she loved us and
we her.
"Now, do you believe that we
Southern women did any work
during the WARP she asked, with
smile.
ooh, yes" instantly spoke up the
girl who had expressed doubt.
"Do you know" said the tall, light
haired girl, II feel as if making these
emergency bags and doing such things
as we do is mere child's play. But all
the same, I trust that the women of
the country will not have to do such
things as you Southern women did, no
matter how fiercely war is waged."
''Such conditions could never exist
again" answered the old lady, placid
ly. Have no fear. Then our people
were divided; now we arc welded to-
gether by the Stars and Stripes for
ever. Really, don't care what my
unreconstructed Southern friends say
when they hear I've joined this relief
association, for I'm downright proud
to be doing something for these dear
Yankee soldier boys And the girls
