perado-May BE Lynched IL Caught.

Chillicothe Ohio, Oct 9.-Charles Fred
erick and John Roach, two murderers, are
hiding in the hills of Jackson county, and
several posses are searching for them aided
by bloodhounds. The men shot and killed
Deputy Marshal William Lively, at Ham
den. when he tried to arrest them.
The posses are made up of friends OF
Lively and they are determined to lynch
his slayers if they can be caught The
Iugitives are desperate men and were only
recently released from the penitentiary.
Sunday they went to Hamden, got drunk,
and raised a row. Lively was sent TO
arrest them and was killed. Both men
sent bullet through the officers head.
The murderers ran out of town brandish-
ing their weapons and in that way stopped
immediate pursuit.
They threatened to kill anyone who fol-
lowed them and il was half an hour before
a posse was organized. The word was
passed TO shoot the desperadoes on sight
and open threats OF lynching are made.
The fugitives managed TO reach the hills.
Bloodhounds were secured from neighbor-
ing towns and several posses are now on
the hunt. The whole section of the coun-
try is aroused and if the men are not
brought in soon, hundreds more viii join
In the pursuit. The murderers are ex-
pected TO make a stand when discovered
and a pitched battle is expected.
INEZ, Ky, Oct. 3.-Henry Cassidy. a
desperate who lived three miles back of
here came to town yesterday intoxicated.
He carried with him Winchester.
Sampson Kirk. one of the Oldest inhabi-
tants here was pushed from the sidewalk
by the outlaw and when the old man re-
monstrated Cassidy fired al him, but the
bullet went wide of its mark. Joseph
Kirk town marshal, a nephew of the old
man, made an attempt 10 arrest Cassidy.
Cassidy made dash to escape and when
the marshal gave chase the outlaw turned
and fired twice killing Kirk instantly.
Cassidy fed TO the mountains back
OF town and all day long a posse sought
10 effect his capture, but so far their
efforts have proved futile.
Cassidy had always been considered g
dangerous man and on numerous occasions
has demonstrated his ability TO use a gun OF
his fellow men. Kirk was thirty-eghI years
old and was very popular. strong
feeling prevails here against Cassidy end
if capture is made there is but little
doubt that lynching will take place.

1T Happened in a Drug Stors
at Ontario, N. Y.

''One day last winter lady came to my
drug store and asked for brand of cough
medicine that l did not have in stock" says
Mr. c. R. Grandin, the popular druggist of
Ontario, n. Y. She was disappointed, and
wanted to know what cough preparation |
could recommend. l said to her that could
freely recommend Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and that she could take a 25-cent
bottle of the remedy, and, after giving it a
fair trial, If she did not find ii worth the
money, to bring back the bottle and would
refund the price paid. In the course of a
day or two the lady came back to my store
in company with friend in need of cough
medicine and advised her to buy a 50-cent
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I
consider that very good recommendation
for the remedy" 1t is not so much what
newspapers say as what friend says to
friend that has made this remedy so popu.
lar, not only throughout the United States
but in many foreign countries. 1t is for
sale by Henry Evans Wholesale and Retail
Druggist. and all druggists.

He will have an office in the same room

There is rumor to the effect that

There are now two passengers trains

road did not confirm this rumor, but
there seems to be good ground for it
owing to the preparations which are
going on in that direction, This will
give Tucson four passenger trains

BIG SANTA FE CHANGE.

Tomorrow one of the largest bran

will either be transferred or else dis
charged. The Santa te has made many
changes within the last few years that
have affected San Bernardino, but IN
fortunately, the present one, unlike
most of the others, will do this city no

will lose his head by the change, and it
is also said that Capt. o. P. Sloat,
storekeeper, will be on the retired list.
Besides these there are many minor
employees who will either be trans
ferred to Albuquerque or dis
charged.
The change will be complete, every
thing being handled except small
such stuff as is necessary to repair the
road on this division. Since the sup
ply department was located here
everything from the smallest to the
largest article used on the road had to
be ordered from this office.
Albuquerque was the original head
quarters for the supply department.,
but in the change made couple of
years ago it was transferred to this
city, and Immediately the force of en-
ployes was greatly increased. AS yet
there seems to have been no move
made toward transferring any OF the
shop work now being done here, and it
is hardly probable that such a step
will be taken as the company is steadi-
ly improving here in the way of new
machinery and tools.-San Bernardino

PLAIN TALK.
A Railroad Man Discovered Who OC-

weak plea which that paper made to
heal the gashes in the feelings of the

dates had just cause to be ashamed of
their organ. AS stated in the HERALD

administration has for the railroad
man is for what they are worth finan-

Msgoffin was chairman of that commit
tee and the 900 Invitations were dist l.
buted and not q rail- Dad man in Ell
Psso received one of them. Now this
same Mr.. Magoffin is asking the men
whom he considered unfit people to
dance with at the high toned ball to
vote for him. Later on Bob Lyons,
one of the most popular railroad men
in Ell Paso, asked 10 receive the dem
ocratic domination from the Third
