Nature Study.
indianapolis eentipel, Nov e.


T. A. Mott, superintendent of the
Richmond schools, who is attending
the meeting of city and town super
intendents, is an ardent ad vocate of
nature study in the grade schools.
Mature study will be the important
subject discussed at our present
meeting" said Mr.. Mott at the Eng
lish yesterday. The committee al
pointed to investigate the question is
ready to report, and we will devote
two sessions to the discussion. Ma
ture study has been taught in the
Richmond schools for some time, ana
many of the other cities have courses.
At present there is no uniformity IA
the plan of teaching. and one pur-
pose of the discussion will be to reach
an agreement as to the plan of teach
ing. There is growing senti-
timent in favor of nature study in the
schools, but concerted action is neces-
sary to obtain the best results. and
that is what we hope to bring about
as the result of the present meet
ing"

HORSE Thief.
The Man Gets Away But The
Rio Is Recovered.

There does Dot seem to be much
use in a horse thief coming where
the Shofer livery people get an eye
on him; it is certain recovery OF the
property and usually the capture of
the thief.
Last evening fellow drovea horse
aud buggy into the stable and wanted
to sell it, He claimed to some of the
men that he bought the rig at Greeps-
fork. He went away, probably TAX
ing alarm from something that was
said, leaving the rig. and saying be
would oe back in few minutes. He
did not return, which is lucky for
him, since be now would be in Jail il
he had. He had been gone but a few
minutes when inquiry came from
New Paris about the rig, He has
not been seen since and probably left
town as soon as he quit the stable
This morning the owners of the rig
came over after it.
The rig was taken out of the livery
barn of Broc..s & Brown of New Paris
soon after noon by the fellow who
said he wanted it to drive to Glen
Gaar farm. He was a stranger to
them, but seemed to know a good
many people around that neighbor-
hood. Soon after he went away with
the rig a farmer named Timmons
who lives east of town came in hunt
ing for some one who had entered his
house and got away with suit of
clothes and an overcoat This party
was seen by the neiQhbors on the
road and it is considered certain that

GUARDS .OVERPOWERED
Twenty-Six Desperate Prisoners Sue

Plucky Resistance.
They Have Taken ta the Woads aud
Armed Guards Are In Hot

Leavenworth, Kan, Nov. S. AS
result of a mutiny late yesterday af-
ternoon at the site of the new United
States prison, two miles southeast
OF here, where 400 prisoners from the
federal prison. in charge of 80 armed
guards, were at work. one man was
kliiea, five Others dangerously wound
ed. and 20 desperate convicts are at
large.
When the trouble began the rebel
Nous prisoners had only two revol-
vers. These had been secreted in one
of the walls of the building by some
unknown person. There are two walls
partly completed and the remainder
OF the site of the building is surround
ed by q high wooden stockade. Gus
Parker of Ardmore. Indian Territory,
one of the ringleaders of the mutiny.
under pretense of q necessity, walked
to the corner of the stockade where
the revolvers were concealed. and un-
der cover OF some weeds, secured
them without being detected. He re-
turned TO the gang and passed one of
the revolvers to Frank Thompson. a
negro from South McAlester. l. T.. who
8 r. Kinds, superintendent of con-
struction, and two unarmed guards
prepared to round up the men at the
end of the days work. the two armed
convicts covered them with the re-
volvers. and, encouraged by the other
mutinous convicts, forced the men to
walk before them to the northwestern
corner of the stockade. where they
expected to make rush through an
opening. On the outside of the stock
ade was an armed guard, and the con-
yicts We're met at the opening by c.
E. Burrows, a guard, who fought them
back, but who received two shots in
the neck. The convicts then rushed
over to the south wall TO another open
ing and were met by Arthur TreelforS
an armed guard, who is in charge of
all the convicts. Treelford resisted
the convicts and was shot twice but
not dangerously wounded. Defeated
in their attempt to escape at this
point, the men rushed to the guard
house, a temporary frame structure
where the arms are kept. The guards
from the outside rushed in at this
point and drove the convicts away
from the guardhouse. J. p. Waldrupe,
a guard. shot and killed Ford Quinn,
formerly Of Indian Territory. The
prisoners then made a grand rush for
the main entrance, and 26 of them
succeeded in escaping.
Most of the escaped men are from
Indian Territory. Closely followed by
the guards, the men ran to a nearby
forest and succeeded in evading their
pursuers. The men went in the di-
rection of Easton. Kan, and it is re-
ported here that they have held up
many farmers, taking horses and
clothing en- route. Forty armed
guards from the federal prison are in
pursuit of the convicts.

A Slip Of the Tongue Sends
Old Nan Dunn Up For
Life.
HIS GUILTY KNOWLEDGE
of the Whereabouts of Poor Alice
COttrell's Body Was Inadvertant-
ly Revealed TO the Jury.
An Unconscious Admission On the
Witness Stand Was the Con-
yieting Evidence.

Fort Wayne, Nov. S.-Charles Dunn
the old man who was charged with
the foul murder of 12-year-old Alice
Cottrell, has been found guilty and
sentenced to prison for life. The jury
returned a verdict of murder in the
first degree late yesterday afternoon.
moved countenance. A formal appli-
cation was made for a new trial.
The jury took fourteen ballots and
upon the first thirteen the vote stood
nine for conviction and three for ac-
quittal. On the fourteenth ballot the
three men came over. 1t is learned
that upon the question of punishment
the jury first stood seven for the death
penalty and Ave for life Imprisonment.
The crucial point in the evidence upon
which the conviction may be said to
have been based was two statements
OF Dunn himself on the stand.
While counsel for the state was
questioning him as to the incidents
ut the house when neighbors demand
ed to search his cistern for the body
of the child. he was asked why he
carried in q rake without having been
asked to do SO. ITO rake up the
body" was the reply. Again. when
asked why he stood so close over the
opening In the cistern while the men
were raking 1t. he answered: ITO
help lift out the body" These two
statements, made while yet he was
trying to prove that he was positive
the body was not in the cistern, had
weight with the jury. Strangely
enough, the two lapsus linguae es-
capped the attention of attorneys and
reporters alike during the progress of
Dunn's examination.
