WILD MAN AT CAMBRIDGE.
NEGRO, DESERTED BY WIFE, BE-
COMES A DANGEROUS LUNATIC.

Captured by "a Posse and Escapes,
but Is Recaptured-Fourth Regi-
ment Gathering for the Week of
Camp Instruction.
cambridge, Ga, June lS-About two
months ago the wife of sumpter Glenn, a
negro living in the Sixteenth District,
about eight miles from here, quit him and
left the country. The circumstances
preyed so upon his mind that he lost his
reason and set his own house on fire and
laughed while it burned up. He then took
10 the woods and prowled about with
gun, stopping at houses to ask for am
munition and food
At first the people looked upon him as
harmless, but he got to look so wild and
frightful that the neighbors decided to
arrest him and put him in jail, and a
posse was organized and, after consider
able search, they found and captured
him.
One of the party was sent after the
sheriff to come and get him and two were
left to guard him. During the night the
prisoner succeeded in escaping from the
guards and is again at large.
The sheriff was notified of his escape
and he, with a posse of men, have gone
to re-arrest him.
The negro is described as perfectly wild,
with long hair, wearing very little cloth
ing and, as being very dangerous person
TO, be at liberty, hence it was thought
best to secure him before he
committed some mad act.
After a delightful shower this morn
ing which cooled the atmosphere, the
weather has become pleasant and sun
shiny. The encamDment has begun 10
fF up to-day with the arrival of several
companies. Everything is in perfect or
der Col. w. E. Wooten has arrived.
and is in camp. With the arrivals of
tomorrow the encampment will be COM
pete, and in full blast.
Miss Halcya Bower of Hermitage, Fla,
was yesterday elected as teacher of the
second and third grades in the academy
for the ensuing year.
Since writing the above the sheriff has
returned with the crazy man Sumpter
Glenn. He will be tried tomorrow in the
ordinary's court on charge of lunacy.

THE BARKER TRIAL.
Court Rules Out Clergyman Keller's
Extracted Optic as Gruesome and
Irrelevant Evidence.

Irrelevant Evidence.
New York, June 1.-The second day of
the trial at Jersey City of Thomas G.
Barker for the shooting of Rev. John
Keller at Arlington was full of objections
by counsel and clear-cut. cold and sharp
rulings by the presiding judge. Both
principals went on the stand during the
day. The story of Barker may never be
told on the witness stand. The court held
that Barker could not testify to his own
state of mind on the morning of the
shooting. The object of the defense from
the moment Barker was called was TO in
troduce the alleged conversation between
Barker and his wife, which it is claimed
led up 10 the shooting, but at every turn
counsel met with defeat
Barker was withdrawn from the stand
without testifying to anything material.
The story of Mrs. Barker may not be
told now, unless counsel finds some way
which has not yet suggested itelf to in
troduce it,
The prosecution tried to introduce the
eye taken from Mr.. Keller's head. 1t was
presented in a bottle of alcohol, but was
barred out as grewsome and as having
no bearing on the case. DIR Strasser one

told of the wounds and gave expert testi-
nony that Mr. Keller was shot from be-
hind. Mr.. Van Wrinkle tried to get the
doctor to admit that possibly Keller and
Barker met face to face, but the doctor
stuck to his statement that the shot
which was the most serious was fred
from behind.
Mr.. Keller was the last witness for the
state. He showed the jury his SCARED
face and blinded and injured eyes. He in
sisted in a mild way under cross-exami
nation that the shot which entered his
head was fired from behind. He said he
had spoken to no one and inferentially
there had been no quarrel

PRINTING PRESS MEN.

They Meet in International Conven-
ton at Washington, ID. G.
Washington. June lS.-Frederick Dris-
coll, commissioner of the American News
paper Publishers Association. made an
address before the International Printing
Press Mems Convention to-day He urged
the adoption of arbitration for the settle
ment of all differences, the practice of
Cancellation in making new scales and
the right of the publishers representa-
tives to be heard on all proposed changes
in the laws affecting their interests, say
ing that all these measures of relief had
been granted by the International Typo
graphical Union.
He alluded to the necessity for more
fieNibility in governing outside territory
by local union where the jurisdiction
extends beyond the city of its location.
He also complained that attempts were
being made to include in new contracts
unskilled labor as skilled. 1t was stated
to be desirable for both sides that news
paper pressmen should have the author
ity to alone decide ton questions relating
to their interests and that job and book
pressmen. should govern exclusively on
their division of labor. Intimathon was
made that the union requirements to ex-
cessively man the presses in many local
tiles were keeping many press rooms out
of the union.
Chairman Bowman responded in behalf
of the association, expressing the hope
that action would be taken on the lines
of arbitration suggested by Mr.. Driscoll.
The address was referred to the Com
mittee on Laws.
1t was decided that the pressmen would
not hereafter join any state National
Guard organization, on the ground
that they do not believe in util-
izing that power in strikes and
that they have no sympathy with state
interference in labor troubles.

New York, June 1S-The Mail and Elk
press says:
1t was reported to-day in well informed
quarters that important changes in the
management of the Southern Pacific in
it's connection with the Union Pacific are
pending. 1t is intimated that there may
be one executive head for both companies
or possibly an absorption of the execu-
tive operations of the Southern Pacific by
the chief officials of the Union Pacific.
The authority for its statement said
that Charles NJ. Hayes would probably
continue as president, and Charles Fl.
Tweed as chairman of the board of d.
rectors of the Southern Pacific but that
all important matters would be directed
from the Office of Z. H. Hartman, chair
man OF the board, and President II. G..
Burt of the Union Pacific. which now
owns enough Southern Pacific stock to
dictate the policy OF the latter com
many.

sues warming 10 Ranks

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 19-State Bank
Commissioner John W. Prudential has
issued a can to all state and private banks
to make a statement Of financial condi-
ton at the close of business on February
9. In his call, Mr. Breidenthal says:
Since my last call I have again been
called upoa to take charge OF an insolvent
bank. which was wrecked by its cashier
through misuse Of banks funds, and once
more we hove evidence of the evil that
viii sooner or later result from a failure
on the part Of the board Of directors to
perform their duties as required by law.
In this case, as in all other recent fall
ures. the failure is due largely TO the fact
that the board of directors did not in any
sense. perform their duty. Had they done
so the misuse OF funds by the cashier
would have been prevented. For eight
years 7 have labored to impress upon ali
bank directors the necessity Of their dis
charging their duties, in order to protect
the customers Of the bank as wen as its
stockholders. A few still persist IN re-
tusing or neglecting 10 perform their 5uty.
SEINE day the bank with such g board
win ind ITSELF without any business, for
sooner or later the public viii refuse to

nores SO important duty"
