KNoWLToN MAY BE.

The name of Hon. Hosea NJ. KnowI-
ton,7 attorney general is being men
toned among lawyers as a probable APP
.eaney in the state supreme court.
1t was said yesterday in certain au-
thoritatiye quarters, that Gov. Wolcott
has had the appointment of the attor-
ney general under favorable considera-
ton for several days, and that it was
quite likely Mr.. Knowlton's nomination
would be presented for the approval of
the governors council at it's next meet
ing.
The salary of the office is $1,000, but
the appointment being for life, as well
as one of the highest honor, the friends
of Mr.. Knowlton say he would not be
ayerse to accepting the appointment.

LET US HAVE PEACE.

To the Editor of The Spy:
The extravagant essays on Ingersol1
and Brady to which we are being treat
ed every day, reminds me of a good old
darkey's expressive saying. DE more
you say, de more you say Poor DR.
Brady is catching it." the worse. by
far, than his own announcement of the
great agnostic, who, although he had
many noble qualities was probably the
greatest enemy Of the greatest book
ever written, and which. thank God
needs no defender. Leave the dead
alone with his God, and as for the liv-
ing, II We forgive not men their tres
passes neither will your heavenly
Father forgive you yours"
Let us have peace A. r. n

WHAT is TIP

A reader of The Spy requests an an
swer to the following riddle. Can any
of The Spy's readers who are familiar
with the curious in literature furnish
the key?
A headless man had letter to write:
Twas read by one who lost his sight;
The dumb repeated 1t word for word,
And he was deaf who listened and
heard.

SCHROEDER CAPTURED
Stock Detective Hicks and j. K.
Holmes Overtake Him on
the Missouri River.
WILL ANSW FER CHARGE
OF Assault in First Degree and Grand
Larceny-Giles an Accomplish
on Latter Charge.

August Schroeder. a cowboy of the
Musselshell country, who took a shot
at Jas. Cunningham, another cowboy.
on the 18th of February, now Ian
guishes in the county Jail with two
charges hanging over him. Schroeder
was captured on the Missouri river a
week ago yesterday by Stock Detective
Dick Hicks and j. K. Holmes, a cow
boy for Ryan Bros, the distance being
about $50 miles from the scene of the
shooting. Schroeder was riding his
third horse, headed north, evidently
for Canada, and would have succeeded
in crossing the Missouri river had not
the ice gone out. He had bunked for
the night in a cabin, when Hicks and
Holmes went in on him and captured
him without any resistance.
The second crime of which Schroeder
is charged is having stolen three calves
from Ryan Bros, and Jesse Gile Of
Musselshell was also arrested as an ac-
complete.
Messrs. Hicks aud Holmes are to be
commended for their work. The for
mer, VINO has had some pretty rough
journeys during his fifteen years de-
tective work, says this trip was the
hardest he ever experienced, the range
being covered with a hard crust Of ice
and snow, making travel very slow.
Mr.. Hicks says the %constables, who
first started after Schroeder, could have
captured him had they not been afraid
of being shot at as Schroeder was we'll
armed. Schroeder will be arraigned
before Justice Kelly this afternoon,
when his preliminary hearing will be
set.
