MADE A CONFESSION
Facts in the Strange Case of
Isaiah Hiatt.
SKELETON IN HIS CLOSET
Was Buried Uncofined by an
Outraged POpuIaCe.
IN HIS CLOSET

Kingman, Kans., June 29.-Facts have
come TO light IN the case OF Isaiah Hiatt
which is causing considerable interest in
Kingman and Pratt counties. Hiatt lived
in Kingman county and Liberty .owa-
ship, alternating back and forth between
the two. He was a man OF some means;
was married and counted ordinarily re-
spectacle in the community IN which he
lived He claimed to have come from
Kentucky 10 Kansas. but was reticient
when questioned in reference 10 his past
life. He had an almost ungovernable tenn
per and was also rightly profrane in
even his ordinary conversation on this
account.
A few days ago he moved 70 the east
ern edge OF Pratt county and soon be-
came engaged in q law suit with one OF
his -Gejghbors who sued him for shooting
a pet deer. Before this suit was settled
he took sick and his doctor informed him
his sickness was fatal and that he would
soon die Being satisfied of this fact he
became frightened and made an abiect
confession Of his past misdeeds. Among
other things he confessed the name he
was living under was not his real name.
He said he had murdered his first wife
in Kentucky; had killed a neighbor and
hid the evidence Of his crime. giving the
name Of the man and reciting the par
uculars. He also told OF robberies. house
breakings and numerous felonies and pet
" ofenses committed in the past. some
Of them being after his settlement in
this country.
Soon after making his confession Ia
died and the person narradng the cir
cumstances said his neighbors were so
horror stricken at the Nervousness ~ his
crime that their neighborly feeling which
had been excited on account of his sick
ness suddenly turned 70 revulsion and
abhorrence and they refused 10 take part
in or allow him a christian burial. but
instead went out to a secluded spot on
his farm and dug a hole and dumped him
in, unhonored and without single tear
of regret.
Owing TO the enormity OF his crimes
and not courting the noloriety that would
naturally be attached to a community in
which such a man might live and die
but few people have been made convers-
ant with the facts Of his confession and
death and this is perhaps the first pub
lie recital made of it. although happening

A SPECIMEN OF EVANSISM.
Henry Sims Pension Reduced from S72 Per
Month to $50 and one-halt to his Wife.
Hartford COnrantl

Henry Y. Sims, a veteran of the civil
war, received official notice from the Chef
of the Pension Bureau notifying him that
his pension had been reduced from SI2
per month to $50. But according to the
ruling of the Office Mr.. Sims will receive
only one-haIf of that amount, the balance,
$15, having been ordered paid regularly
to his wife, who has refused all offers
to make her home with her husband.
Mr.. Sims enlisted in Co. f, 9TH Conn,
in September. 1861, and was mustered
out May 26, 1865. He was in the battle
and bombardment of Port Royal, and en-
tered that place with the Union forces.
After taking part in the capture of Fort
Pulaski, Ga, he was in the fight at james
Island, $. c., where he was shot through
the head May 16, 1862, and was confined
in various army hospitals for nine months.
When he recovered Private Sims went
to the front again and was in the engage
ment at Drewry's Bluff, where he was
wounded in the foot by piece of explod-
ing shell. Subsequently he was at the
siege of Morris Island, Charleston Harbor,
5. c., and at the battle of Olustee, in
Florida, with the Tenth Corps, under Gen.
Seymour. At that fight Sims carried
wounded comrade off the field from the
enemy's position, Charles Il. Shipman,
who now lives in Chester, in this State.
The wound he received in the head

eye. The sight of the other is affected
until it equals only one-twentieth of the
natural vision. Mr.. Sims has been fight
ing the Pension Bureau for several years
because all effort was made to reduce his
pension some time ago.
Drs. Samuel B. st. John and E. X.
Root examined his eyesight, and their afii-
dayits were sent to Washington, together
with others from influential citizens, in
cluding Mayor HARRISON, Charles Fuller,
of Mellen & Hewes Company; Egbert
Dart, of Rockville; Congressman Simonds
and others. But the Pension Office ig-
nOred them and proceeded to cut the pen
sion. A personal letter to President Nc
Kinley caused the case to be reopened
and the pension was restored.
Mr. Sims says that II. Clay Evans, of
the Pension Bureau, is trying to make
trouble for him because he appealed to
the President. An agent was sent here
to take testimony recently. and it was on
his report the present action was taken.
The notice admits that the pensioner is
nearly to total blindness.
The friends of the old soldier were dis

Mckinley.
\ comrade writes regarding the case:
''Sims was in 10 general engagements,
besides other smaller ones, and was de-
tailed a sharpshoOter in most every en-
gagement He was wounded twice, and
taken prisoner at the battle of Drewry's
Bluff and held for 10 months, and suffered

wealth that be could not sleep. He was
driven from extreme Joy to extreme de-
spair. He soon began to think that 1t
was not safe in the desk, and rising soft
ly, so as to awaken no one, he stole out
of the room and carried the package to
the basement, where he put it in an empty
barrel and poured tushel of potatoes
on it.
But he was scarce again In bed with
he realized how foolish that was. The
cook would find it next morning, and after
thinking for some moments on the sub
ject he slipped back to the basement, car
ried the money to the barn and left IL in
the hay-mow; but before he returned he
thought some tramp might come along
and find it; so, when half way to the
house, he crept back to the barn-loft, took
the package, and for several moments
stood shivering in the cold, undecided
what to do.
Where shall 1 put it where it cannot
be found?"
E.c-y twinkling star in the heavens
seemed an accusing eye watching him.
Already he had almost begun to wish he
had not found it. Better be poor and
struggling than have this dread at his
heart with all these thousands. At last,
growing desperate, he concealed it in lit
tie niche in the chimney, which he covered
over with a brick.
He went back to bed, but not to sleep,
until late in the night, and then it was
to dream of detectives, police and thieves
searching for his hidden treasure. He

A Description of the Philippines.
n,ifel
(Life.)

The Philippines are bunch of trouble,
gathered upon the western horizon Of civ
ilization.
They are bounded on the west by hoo
dooism and smugglers, on the north by
rocks and destruction, on the east by
typhoons, and on the south by cannibals
and earthquakes.
The climate is a deceptive combination
of changes well adapted to raising Cain.
1t is pleasant for mosquitoes, ants, lizards,
bats, snakes, tarantulas, reaches, scor-
pions, centipedes and alligators.
The inhabitants are very Industrious.
Their leading occupations are trench build.
ing and bolo manufacturing.
Their houses are made chiefly of bam-
boo and landscape.
Their principal amusements are cock
fighting and stealing.
The principal diets are fried rice, boiled
rice, stewed rice, and rice rice.
The animal of burden is the caribou
(water buffalOl. Should a hundred-ZEils
Journey be undertaken with this animal,
the driver would die of old age before
reaching his destination.
Manila is the capital and principal city.
1t is noted for its large number of sa.
looms and Cinnamon.
The principal exports of the islands
are rice, hemp, war bulletins and dead
soldiers. The imports, arms, live soldiers
and ammunition.
Communication has been established
between the islands by substituting the
mosouito for the carrier pigeon, the mos
uuito being larger and better able to stand
the long journey.
Taking it all in all, it is a good place
ITO keep away from.

Black Eye for the U. S. Army and Navy
Historical Association

J. Worth Carnahan, President of the u.
s. Army and Navy Historical Association,
engaged in selling books containing certi-
fcates of soldiers records from Washing
ton, was arrested few days ago under
an indictment found by the Federal Grand
Jury 1T Columbus, Ohio charging him
with having conspired with r. l.. Wins
low and j. O. Davis, agents of the con-
Germ, to impersonate Special Examiners of
the Pension Bureau. He waived a hear
ing and was put under $1,000 bonds for
his appearance.
No less than five of the firms agents
have been convicted of frauds on old SOL
diers, and it is alleged that Carnahan was
party to their crimes.

With tears and sobs she read the let

garding it too sacred for the eyes of the
world, she concealed 1t in her bosom.
Next morning the newspapers contained
the following brief notice of the affair:
"Henry Grimshawe, of 1888 -

taking poison. Mr.. Grimshawe's health
had been poor for some months and he
had grown despOndent. 1t is thought that
he was temporarily deranged.'
Three days after the funeral, a pretty
woman in widows weeds appeared at the
office of the express company and asked
to see the General Manager. She was
shown to his private Office, where she
handed him letter to read. AS he read
astonishment and displeasure were
marked characteristics of features. He
looked at her sharply and demanded:
Where is it!
She laid a package on his desk, and
opening it, he counted the money to make
sure.

coursing down her cheeks.

bits and threw it into the glowing CRATE,
where it soon burned to ashes.
