QUANTRELL's LIEUTENANT.
VIM. HALEY Dies in an Asylum at st.
Joe.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Jan. 5.-Only q few
of Charles William Quantrel's followers
are living, and the last one remaining in
this section died in the asylum in this
city. He was William HALEY, and in
the days of the border warfare he was
QuantreIl's lieutenant. He was a police
man twelve years before his mind gave
way. and proved to be one Of the most
daring officers in any western city.
William HALEY was nineteen years old
in 1861, when he joined Quantrell. He
was in jail in Independence, Mo, closely
than that, he was under sentence of
death for the killing of two men who
had invaded the home Of his mother.
Early one morning, on spring day.
Quantre1 and his men rode into the
town and scattered the union soldiers
stationed there. They opened the doors
of the jail and invited the prisoners to
come forth Nearly all the prisoners
were young men, held on trumped-up
charges. and in jail because they were
southern sympathizers. HALEY was
among them
treH asked them
The men said they wanted to join
Prices army, and they were furnished
with horses and equipped for the jour
ney- Three months later number or
them Joined Price, but many OF them
remained with Quantreu
HALEY was one Of the men who re-
little band. He remained with Guam
trell throughout the war, until the lat
ter received his death wound and was
with him when he died in Kentucky.
HALEY was born in Frankfort. KY,
and came to Missouri in 1850. After he
was rescued from the jail at mdepen-
dence the other members Of the family
were compelled to leave, and removed to
Weston, where they remained twenty
years
When the other gueriI1as went into
train robbing and other unlawful pur-
suits, Haley left them and came to this
city. He knew Jesse James when the
latter lived in this city under the name
Of Howard In fact, Haley was a mem
Der Of the police force at the time. and
saw Jesse James daily, but no look of
recognition ever passed between them
when they were observed.
Before Haley became insane he was
the best authority in the United States
on train robbing. He knew all the train
robbers Of the early days, and has pre-
served a careful record Of every train
robbery in the United States since the
first one was committed at CentraIia.
No, on September "A, 1864. when thirty
two Union soldiers were killed by Bill
Anderson and his band, who robbed the
train That was a short time after
HALEY had left the band.
Haley has written a record Of the
train robberies, having obtained the in
formation regarding many of the early
robberies from the robbers themselves.
It is preserved among his papers, and

SMALLPOX PANIC.
People IN Logging Camps in North
west Terror Stricken.


Sparta. Mimi, Jan. 5-The reign Of
terror inaugurated throughout the log
ging camps of northern Minnesota by
smallpox epidemic has assumed the pro-
portions of a fearful panic and human
life is being held very cheap All Of the
camps are surrounded by heavy guard
OF armed men, with instructions to shoot
the first man who attempts to escape
from the confines of the place, and this
afternoon the first tragedy was enacted
This tragedy was enacted at a camp Of
the Northern Lumber company, three
miles from this place, when John swan
son, whose home is supposed to be IN
Michigan. was shot and killed by the
guard of twenty men that had been de-
tailed to prevent any one from leaving
the infected building.
Smallpox made its appearance at this
camp yesterday, and the foreman at
once selected twenty of his 140 men,
armed them with rifles, and instructed
them to shoot the first man who tried 70
get away This was considered neces-
sary, as the men are mad with terror
on account of the steady gain Of small
pox, and are willing to take any chances
if they can but escape swanson en-

times during the day, and was several
times warned to keep inside. Late in
the afternoon he made the attempt that
resulted in his death Waiting for a
moment when he thought the guard was
absent, he rushed forth Half dozen
men called upon him to halt, but he kept
on running. Ten or twelve rifles crack

tunate fellow dead with a number of
bullets in his body

NOT DUE TO CLIMATE
catarrh Is Found Everzwhere.

y
Catarrh is at home anywhere and
everywhere. While more common in
cold, changeabIe climates. it is by no
means confined to them, but is prevail
ent in every state and territory in the
union
The common definition Of catarrh is a
chronic cold in the head, which If long
neglected often destroys the sense of
smell and hearing; but there are many
other forms of the disease, even more
obstinate and dangerous.
Catarrh of the throat and bronchial
tubes as well as catarrh of the stomach
and liver are almost as common as
nasal catarrh and generally more diff
cult to cure
Catarrh is undoubtedly a blood dis
ease and can only be successfully eradi-
Gated by an internal treatment; sprays,
washes and powders are useless as far
as reaching the real seat of the disease
is concerned
DIR. McIverney advises catarrh suffer
ers to use new preparation. sold by
druggists, called Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets, because actual analysis has shown
these tablets to contain certain anti
septic qualities Of the highest value and
being an internal remedy, pleasant to
the taste, convenient and harmless. can
be used as freely as required, as well
for children as for adults
An attorney and public speaker, who
had been a catarrh sufferer for years,
says
Every fall would catch a cold which
would settle in my head and throat and
hang on all winter long and every win
ter it seemed to get a little worse. I
was continually clearing my throat and
my voice became effected to such an
extent as to interfere with my public
speaking
I tried troches and cheap cough cures
and sometimes got relief, but only for
a short time until this winter when I
learned of the new catarrh cure,
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, through a.
newspaper advertisement. Two fifty
cent boxes which I bought at my drug
gists cleared my head and throat in fine
shape. and to guard against a return OF
my old trouble I keep a box of the tab
lets on hand, and whenever catch a
little cold I take tablet or two and
ward Off any serious developments.
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets deserves to
head the list as household remedy,
to check and break up coughs aid colds
because unlike many other eatarrh and
cough cures these tablets contain no
opiate, cocaine or any injurious drug.

TOOK CARETAKER'S WIFE.
Wealthy New Yorker Sued For $780,
900 by His Watchman.


New York, Jan. San action for $780,
900 damages has been brought in the
supreme court OF New York against
Joseph Faulkner, president of the Burr
Printing company, at Nos 16 and 10
Jacob street, this city, by Edmund J.
Weston, formerly employed by Faux
ner as coachman. who charges that
Faulkner has alienated his wife's affec-
tions and caused the latter to leave

Faulkner as coachman at his summer
home near Dunellen, three miles west OF

when Faulkner went back to New York
TO live Weston and his wife occupied
the Faulkner summer home as care
takers.
it was during this time. IT II alleged,
that Faulkner made love to Mrs Wes-
ton. 1t is charged that Faulkner wrote
many letters to her. all Of which were
filled with endearing terms and many OF
them referring TO sums OF money sent
secretly in New York.
Mrs. Weston finally deserted her hus-
band and year old daughter, and went
to New York to live. Recently the de-
serted husband got possession Of a bum
die at letters alleged to have been writ
ten to his wife by Faulkner. and when
the case comes into court these letters
win play prominent part IN the evil
dence Of the prosecution
Watson is a poor, Woodworking man.
Until his wife became acquainted with
Faulkner he says. she was always hap
py and contented with him At present
Weston is living on farm near New
Market He has his daughter with him.
Mrs Weston is about 80 years old and
good looking. Faulkner is a. widower,
about so years old, and reputed to be
living in Brooklyn His reputation has

A strange coincidence in the life Of
HALEY was the fact that he was des-

Officers were taken into the car. and
when the attack was made by the rob-

the first shot from the car, and killed
one Of the robbers. HALEY was unmar-
