TABLES WERE TURNED
Peculiar Incident In the Dis
triCt Court.
PLAINTIFF THROWN IN
James Robinson Pleads Guilty
and Is Given -Four Years.

| An unusual proceeding took place in
the district court yesterday in which a
prosecuting witness refused TO testify
| against the accused, and was afterwards
himself arrested for perjury and the case
against the accused dismissed by the re-
quest of the prosecuting attorney. This
was done in the case of the States against
Norvel Williamson, charged with burg
larizing a residence in this city last fall
The prosecuting witness, Ollie Salisbury,
is doubtless sorry he spoke as he did az
the preliminary trial of young Williamson
for now he viii have to answer for the
crime of perjury while Williamson goes
free.
The trial of Norvel Williamson was
commenced in the district court yesterday,
and Ollie Salisbury WIS the states prin-
cipal witness, he having testified against
Williamson to the entire satisfaction of
the county attorney at the preliminary
trial But yesterday Salisbury could not
be handled by the state at all, for as
prosecuting witness, his testimony was
squarely in favor of Williamson, and re-
futed his testimony given at the pre-
liminary. When Mr.. Amidon found that
he could not bring Salisbury in line with
his previous testimony he got pretty mad,
and after several trials with the witness,
he dismissed the suit against Williamson
and Immediately had Salisbury arrested
for perjury. The Testimony he gave at
the preliminary will be used against him
and Mr. Amdoni will have the satisfaction
Of getting even with the gentleman. 1t is
said that one point on which Salsbury's
testimony was contradictory to that given
a the first trial was that at that trial he
had testified to having known of the door
being closed and that Williamson had
broken it open. Yesterday he testified
that the door was open and that anyone
was free to enter the house, and all the
persuasive power of the attorney could
not get him to change this statement.
James Robinson, the colored boy, charg-
ed with burglary, plead guilty and Judge
Dale sentenced him to four years in the
penitentiary. Robinson is one of the pris-
oners who went out with Fitzsimmohs
and Tackett and was apprehended at
Newton a few days afterwards at a cost
of $50 to Sheriff Simmons. The old gang
who escaped with Tackett, but finally got
back, is fast disappearing from the Jail.
Twenty-one of the thirty-six jurymen
qualified yesterday and are now doing
time at the rate of 81 per day each. They
will have some very important cases to
sit upon.
The trial of the wife murderer, Greene,
will be called today. He followed his wife
from Wichita to Furley last winter and
shot her as they were getting off the
train. 1t is not known what defense he
will make.

night. Mr.. Booton says Hawley also used
his gun in a very dangerous and threat
ening manner. and for which he will
likely have to settle with the state. 1t is
said that when the night clerk went up
stairs Tuesday night he discovered Haw-
ley in the hall of the third floor. When
he asked him what he was doing there
Hawley, it is said, began cursing and
pulled his gun on Turner, forcing him
down stairs. Then Turner called a police
man, but Hawley skipped out the back
way and did not stop, even when Police
man Moore fired two shots after him.

the Carleton school house north of Derby

down unon them.

WHO Is THIS GlRL2
Strange Gypsies, in Charge of white
Girl. Act MYsteriOuslY.

If some of the police officers who have
little more nerve than reporter for
the Eagle has will hunt about the out
skirts of the city today they may run
down genuine sensation and rescue an
! innocent girl from the hands of band Of
gypsies They went through the city yes
terday, and a reporter for the Eagle over
took the crowd as they were pulling boldly
up Market street in the afternoon. The
reporter rode up on his wheel close to the
wagon and scrutinized the dingy crowd
and their peculiar actions. There were
four persons in an old spring wagon, drawn
by one bony horse. One man and boy
sat in the front seat and behind them sat
an old, brown-skinned woman. with a black
hat on top of a head which had but few
straight black hairs on it. Her features
were sharp and fearful to gaze upon She
was doubled up in the bottom of the
wagon bed, with her back TO the seat in
which the man and boy were sitting Over
her lap were scattered a few dirty quilts
and rags. She herself was too filthy
looking to be c.assed in the catalogue Of
human beings. Beside her sat a sweet
faced girl of about Il years of age. Her
features were the embodiment OF purity Of
thought and girlish innocence. Her large
and lUstrous black eyes were Slightly
dimmed with tears as she gazed out upon
the pretty homes and the free and busy
people as they logged along through Mar
ket street. She was dressed in rags, but
beautiful nevertheless. The reporter rode
up close to the vehicle and said:

The girl ventured TO answer. but the old
woman by her side ierked her arm and
murmured something giving the girl a
heinous gaze square in the eye. Then she
looked at the reporter the same way The
girl ventured not syllable of response. |
but turnel her eyes heavenward and
sighed
Another question was asked by the re-
porter. but the old woman kept her
strange gaze on the girl. who did not dare
to answer. Then she buried her head in
her lap and sobbed for near,y half a block I
o fthe way. while the miserable and dan /
gerous looking old woman held her gaze +
steadily upon her The old woman would .
not speak and the men in the front seat /
would not take their eyes of the horses. /

were guilty Of some great offense. and 1
seemed to have the Cir completely in their +
power. She did not resemble any Of Tire .

she was fair. despite the suns rays. which /
had almost bltstered her face. The little

and as long as it could he seen the Old
woman had her gaze fixed on the girl. and
not word could they be induced 70 utter.
Several persons had noticed the dirty
ii-iooking occupants OF the spring wagon
and drew the comparison between them
and the girl TIE opinion was ve7tUre5

The prospects of the sugar market
are more brilliant than they have been
for years. The last quotation was
S-16, and according to a forecast by
a gentleman who was well posted there
need be no surprise if cents are reach
ed before the end of the month. Cuba
is in such condition that she is out of
the sugar market for some while to
come. Her recovery will not be so
rapid as was at first anticipated The
war has also had a considerable effect
upon Philippine sugar. Those tropical
countries which are ready with their
crop as we are will reap the harvest
which falls to them. Sugar crops on
these Islands are in fine condition and
the market prospects are splendid.

The Philippine war, like Pope's Alex
andrine, "drags it's slow length along"
1t is a wearying war, with little or no
chance of any general engagement, but
a steady wearying and wearing drain
upon both officers and men. 1t is de-
velOping the magnificent fighting and
staying qualities of American troops.
This was the kind of work which the
Spaniards were utterly unable to un-
dertake, and which lost for them their
prestige with the Filipinos. The Span
ard practically gave up, the American
never will. To use an old expression,
ne will fight it out on this line if it
takes all summer. He is bound to
reach his objective no matter what he
has to go through in order to gain it.
1t is the Anglo-SaXon grit that will
never give in, for to yield would be
national disgrace. If only Aguinaldo
could be laid hands on, much future
difficulty would be avoided.

GOOD ADVICE.
our doors

The remarks of Senator Clark should
be weighed by those of our citizens
whose interests are large here. The
view he takes of us is that which an
mates the citizens of any state or ter
ritOry in the union. The men of infiu-
ence and of wealth not only use the
regular legislative methods, but they
themselves go personally to Washing
ton to be on hand to give information
about their own locality
A Californian or a New Yorker or
a Wyoming man is a citizen of the
United States, but he is also a citizen
of his own particular state, and he is
proud of the record of his state and the
principal men of the state feel that
they have a responsibility in looking
after the fortunes of their state or ter
ritory. This is one of the first lessons
in self reliance and responsibility that
we must learn. We have to do things
we desire if we delegate our highest
work to the hands of paid officials, we
want to be represented by our very
best, whose sole reward will be in the
prosperity and advancement of the ter
ritory which is their home.
Senator Clark knows OF what he is
talking. He has actual experience of
territorial government. He has said,
in conversation, that everything in our
territorial government depends upon
our starting right, and we shall be
started right if congress is properly
informed of what we want. We must
take this lesson to heart Whatever we
want done, must be clearly set forth
now. 1t will be no use crying when
the milk is spilled and the pitcher bro
ken. Our tendency is to try and set
things right after the event. We We're
able to do this with the plastic forms
of government we formerly had. Now
we have to deal with no plastic form
that we can shape to suit ourselves
afterwards. What we get will remain
fixed for long time. Senator Clark's
advice should be carefully considered
and digeSted.

The next senate will in all probable
ity have eighty-seven members. Cal
ifornia, Delaware and Utah have fail
ed to elect. Pennsylvania will probab-
ly elect and Florida will certainly elect.
Upon the basis of eighty-seven the new
senate will have fifty-two Republicans,
twenty-siX Democrats, four Populists,
four Silver Republicans and one indie
pendent. AS some of the Democrats
and others vote in favor of the admin
istration upon several questions, nota-
bly, upon questions dealing with for
eign affairs, there will in everything
be a clear majority in support of the
measures proposed by Mckinley and
his cabinet. The gold standard will
have a majority and so will the tariff
question. The prospects therefore In
the senate are extremely bright. 4
twO-thirds majority will require fifty
eight votes, but there will not be much
legislation that will require this, most
of it, if not all, will be carried by a
mere working majority, which win be
always in hand.
