IN JAIL FOR HORSE STEALING.

IN JAIL FOR HORSE STEALING.
Early Saturday afternoon man
and woman came in town from
the south west and as they hnr-
ridly passed through asked the
way to Villas. The blackboard
was drawn by gray horse while
a ball faced bay was being led.
Nothing would have been thought
of the matter had not the gray
animal been recognized by Alfred
Allen rs one belonging TO his
brother Lindsay and was kept in
the pasture south west Of town.
To make sure however, he gal
loped to the ranch and found the
animal missing. He returned
with his father and together with
Sheriff Smart gave chase and over
took the outfit at John Yokum's
ranch north OF Villas, and with
winchesters leveled demanded
the surrender of the occupants
who yielded with alacrity. The
pair gave their names as Mr.. and
Mrs. Charlie Groves and claimed
they bought the horse for $22
on Friday evening, about half
way between Springfield and
Corrizo, of man IL cart who
had five head of horses. They
were, however, brought back to
town and asked to camp in the
south end until the matter could
be adjusted. During Sunday Mr..
Allen found out things that led
him to believe that Groves stole
the horse and Sunday evening
had HIM arrested and placed IN
jail. Monday morning the prls
oner was given a hearing before
Justice OF the Peace Gordon. On
the witne SIS stand the man and
woman swore they bought the
horse as stated above and further
stated they got off the right road
coming from CorrIzo and met no
one but the party they bought the
horse from. Willard Cole testi-
fed he met the prisoner and out
fit on Saturday morning about
10 O'Clock on the Corrlzo road
and he had nothing but bay
horse at that time. The defend
ent was assisted in procuring
justice by Jas. Herbert who made
a very able plea for his client
The Justice, however. placed the
prisoner under 5000 bond which
could not be furnished and was
committed to Jail to await the
next term of the district court IN
June unless special session Is
held.
Mr.. and Mrs. Groves claim the Y
have been married about three
years, but lost their marriage Ger
tifcate in travelling around, so
to save trouble concluded to have
the nuptial knot tied again and IN
the presence OF large number of
COW boys the ceremony was per
formed, on Tuesday morning, in
the Co. Clerks office by Squire
Gordon. Mr.. Groves claims the
county will haye to support his
wife and has filed papers with the
Co. Clerk to that effect. He says
he is quarter blood Seneca indian

HOWARD ON TRIAL
Tn Jury pleted-Prosecution States
 Its Case

Frankfort, Ky, September 14.-The jury in the case of James Howard, charged with being a principal in the Goebel assassina- ton, was completed today The jury stands ten Democrats, one Republican and ezs ar- ti-Goebe1 Democrat. The jurors arc all farmers.
 Frankfort, Ky, September 14.-At the aft ernoon session of the court, Judge B. G. Williams made the opening statement of the case for the prosecution. He said the prosecution would show in evidence that prior to the assassination of Goebel How ard was despatched from Manchester and that on his way to Frankfort he told var ious persons that "al Governor Taylor needed to win the contest, was a good shot and that he (Howard) was going to Frank fort to take a hand in the contest" That he told others Goebel was to be killed and Taylor would pardon the assassin; that Howard was in the executive office a few moments before the shooting a nd jumped over the back fence of the capitol grounds a minute or so after the shooting; that he shaved off his moustache to disguise him. self and began work at once manufactur- ing an alibi
 Judge Williams referred to the fact that the bosom friends of Howard are Sheriff Bev White and John G. White, whose brother George White, was killed by Tom Baker in the Clay County feud, that Tom Baker was assassinated in the same men, ner as Goebel and inferentially that the man who killed Baker also killed Goebel.

Clever Detective Work by Prisoner Sam Stevenson, Who Has Served the City Faithfully Whilst
 Wearing the Stripes

Will McCurdy and Ed Jones, two negroes notorious in police circles for their numer- ous escapes, have again been rounded up' after few days vacation, and since they seem to regard ordinary prison walls as a joke, they will both be heavily chained to an iron post at night.
 These negroes have broken jail half dozen times within the past few months. and no matter how carefully they have been guarded the city jail has not been able to hold them. Both escaped a few nights ago, but today they will be at work on the streets again. The capture of both was affected by "trusties" s"of Street Boss Coleman and Street Boss Ellis. The Mo Curdy negro ran two miles before giving up.
 In the case of Ed Johnson more slSillful tactics had to be used, and Sam Stevenson. a negro prisoner deserves all the credit for the capture. Sam tracked Johnson down in true detective style, and after ar resting him sent for the patrol wagon, locked him up and sent him to the police station without any help whatever.
 Speaking of this negro, Sam Stevenson, last night MT. Coleman, who superintends the work on the streets. said he was one of the most trustworthy darlSies he had ever seen. He says Sam has done more work for the city in the way of catching escapes than any man on the whole force. During the smallpox epidemic three years ago Sam was always ready and willing to do what he could. He carried nearly all the patients to the pesthouse and saved the city many dollars, and no hired man a nm feels real proud of his record, and though he has another year to serve, he says he wants to keep helping the department. He was given a sentence for fighting with a woman several months ago.

TWO MEN SHOT
 IN A SALOON ROW
And Both Are Now in Dangerous
 Condition.
TWO BOTTLES OF COOL BEER
Caused Duel in Which Bartender Will liam Wilson and Mark Collins Fir ed Many Shots and Badly
 Wounded Each Other

Bartender William Wilson and Mark Col lins, two white men, were shot and se- riously wounded during a brawl in the Bridge saloon, at First avenue and Twenty second street, late yesterday afternoon Joe Sorrows and J. L. McGimsey, who are also said to have taken part in the row, were placed under arrest, but afterwards released on bond.
 Mark Collins was struck five times, one bullet entering the left side of the neck and the others in his legs. He Is now at the infirmary of Talley and Chapman, and though he is in a critical condition, the doc tors express hopes of his recovery. William Wilson was struck four times most of the shots taking effect In the lower part of his body. He was taken to Browns s infirmary, and late last night was reported to be resting easy.
 It seems that the trouble arose over a dispute to whether two drinks had been paid for. Collins and Sorrows went into the saloon and called for drinks. Wilson, who was attending the bar, served them, and few minutes later reminded the men that they had not paid him. The two men then insisted that they had paid for the drinks. two bottles of beer, and rather than to con- tinue the argument, Wilson told them it would be all right, "to go ahead" How ever, the dispute was continued McGimsey taking the part of Wilson, and it finally resulted in the shooting.
 There is some difference of opinion as to who provoked the difficulty. One witness states that Collins, after the first dispute, walked out of the saloon,' but returned and again started the quarrel. At this time Will son was standing in the middle of the floor and the witness says Collins while talk ing in headted tones, drew a revover. Will son then called for Tom Taylor. the negro who assists him, to bring his revolver. The negro was not quick enough and Wilson ran behind the counter and picked up the pistol. By this time Collins had backed to the front door and Wilson fired two shots without effect. Collins replied with two shots, both taking effect. Wilson then took deliberate aim and fired twice in rapid suc- cession, and then again. This time his aim was good and Collins fell to the sidewalk shot through the neck. Both men emptied every chamber in their revolvers.
 It is understood that Collins claims that when he walked back into the saloon Will son began beating him In the face, and he fired at his legs, merely for self protection and not with any intention of killing him. No statement could be gotten from the wounded men, the physicians refuse to allow them disturbed
