Kalamazoo. Mich, May 29.-An-
other arrest was made in connection
with the Richland bank robbery.
Some tmc before the trial of Allison
and Slater one of their friend, left
some books FOR the prisoners at the Of
lice OF Attorney +. f. Knappen, who
va, asked 90 deliver theln at the jail,
which he did But the books never
got INTO the hands of the prisoners.
In the covers OF one were two very fine
saws and in the other were two files,
with which tools prisoner could have
easily effected his escape, with condi-
tons favorable. Officers have been
looking for the man ever since. His
name is Frank Webb. Police in South
Bend secured him Saturday night.
Before the book incident, Webb visited
the Jail one day and attempted to see
Slater, saying that he had important
business with him, which could not be
transacted through an attorney. He
was refused permission to see the
prisoner and grew quite wrathy.
The manner in which the saws and
files were concealed in the books which
Webb is alleged TO have sent to the
prisoners, was clever. The books were
cloth covered and had been placed in
in the hands Of an expert bookbinder.
Apparently the binding was partially
removed, a section of the paste board
cut out of the cover to allow the saws
and files to exactly fit in, and then the
book was neatly rebound.

The readers of this paper will be

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the strength by building up the

DEATH OF FRANK L. KENNEDY.
A Former Smyrnian Dies Ia Philadelphia
A High Tribute to His Character.

Mrs. Walter T. Massey, residing
near town, received notice last week of
the death of her brother, Frank L.
Kennedy, Thursday, son of the late
Charles Kennedy. He grew up in
Smyrna and was a clerk in the cloth
ing store of S. l.. Kahn. He was in
the 3Sth year of his age. In a private
note from S. L. Kahn, he says:
The sudden and sad death of Frank
l.. Kennedy was great shock to me.
From the time he entered my employ
in Smyrna at the age of 12, in 1874, till
the day of his death he was never out
of position. He was with me and FL.
s. Louchheim & Co., till 1886, when
the latter retired from business, when
he was employed by Messrs. Snyder,
Harris, Barrett & Co. He was thor
oughly honest and conscientiously
faithful in the discharge of all duties
intrusted to him, he was so entirely re-
liable that he earned the respect of all
business men that he came in con-
tact with.
His loss is greatly deplored by the lat
ter firm, and as one of the members of
the firm said to me, it would be impos-
sible to fill his place. as he was so thor
oughly competent in his position al
ways willing and energetic, always at
work, one of the first to arrive and
last to leave his place of business.
They had the utmost confidence and
respect for him. His death was caused
by diptheria, caught by nursing his
wife's sister son, which he had adopted
at her death, when the child was only
5 years old. Frank was very much at
tached to the boy. He died in his
arms and it is suppose Frank inhaled
his breath. He leaves a widow anC
son, aged ~.
