Later Report.

SS1
: Both Constable William YOst
and Attorney Engle will recover
from the effects of the injuries
unless unexpected complications
arise.
Engle is the insane man whose
arrest was attempted by the off
Ger, and who upon being ap-
preached by the constable cut
him badly with a knife. After
the officer had fallen he fired at
Engle, the shot. taking effect in
the crazy mans face. 1t entered
near the end of the chin and
came out near his ear. The
wound is slight, the ball having
traversed along the jaw bone.
Yost's injuries are by far the
more serious. There is a long and
dangerous cash in his left side
and his left arm is badly cut. But
neither wound is near a vital spot.
DR.. Stout, of Parkersburg, who
was called to Waverly to attend
the injured officer, says the man
will recover. EngIe, who became
demented through the use of
morphine, together with having
overworked himself during the
present campaign in his effort to
| land the nomination for Prosecut-
ing Attorney of Tyler county, was
taken to the Marietta sanitarium
from which institution he escaped
Friday night, and made his way
across the Williamstown bridge
to the West Virginia side of the
ri-er, after having a severe tussle
with Toll Taker Harness. Satur-
day afternoon he reached Waver-
ly, and went to the passenger sta
ton where he borrowed a pen
knife from a man there, with
which, he said, he wanted to cut
his shoe laces. After getting pos
session of the knife he brandished
it and frightened all the people
from the building. He remained
in the waiting room defying any
one to enter. A warrant was
sworn out for his arrest and was
placed in the hands of Constable
Yost to be served. When the Off
Ger entered the room the insane
man slashed him. Engle was ar
rested, after being shot by Yost.
He is now in the county Jail at
Parkersburg, and yesterday was
adiudged insane by Drs. Engle, OF
Tyler county "a brother of the
unfortunate man), DR.. johnson,
of Waverly, and DIR. Stout, of
Parkersburg. He will be taken to
the Spencer asylum as soon as
possible.

Thomas Stealey Engle, son of
Benjamin Engle, Of Middle
bourne, is lying in a hospital in
Parkersburg with a pistol shot in
his back that may cause his death.
A constable of Waverly, w. Va.,I
was stabbed by Engle, and mayi
i die.
Last week Mr.. Engle was ia,
ken to the sanitarium at Marietta
for treatment for the morphine
and whiskey habit. He had be-
came deranged from the use of
these intoxicants, and had to be
guarded while at his home in Mid
dlebourne. 1t is said he went away
and hid himself for two days in
the woods near Middlebourne be-
fore he was taken to Marietta for
treatment. Saturday evening John
Stealey was called up here by
phone from Marietta, saying En-
gle had made his escape from the
sanitarium at Marietta, and they
wanted to know if he had come
up here. Later the phone was
used again to inform the public
Engle had had a fight with a con-
stable at Waverly, had stabbed
him nearly to death, that Engle
had been shot by the constable
and both men were in a serious
condition, and would possibly die.
The Parkersburg News, OF
Sunday morning, gives the follow
ing account Of the stabbing and
shooting:
Demented from the use of NOR
phine, Thomas Engle, prominent
attorney of Middlebourne, who
escaped from the sanitarium at
Marietta on> Thursday night,
came near committing murder at
Waverly last night, and narrowly
escaped being killed himself.
Before being captured he sue
ceeded in badly stabbing William
Yost, of Waverly, and as he was
running away, and after the Off
Ger was down with the blood
flowing copiously from the gaping
wound in his side, he was shot
and brought to the ground by the
plucky constable.
1t is thought both men will re-
cover, although the condition of
the constable is very serious. The
pistol ball from the constable's s
revolver took effect in Engle's
neck, but it is believed to have
struck a bone and was thus pre-
vented from reaching a vital spot.
The wound in Yost's side is an
ugly one, and it almost reaches a
lung.
Engle is a member of the law
firm of Engle & Moore, of Middle
bourne, one of the leading attor-
neys in Tyler county, and a candi-
date for the nomination by the
Republicans of that county for
Prosecuting Attorney. He be-
came violently insane several days
ago, and relatives and friends ac-
companied him to Marietta where
it was hoped that he could get
benefit. The excitement Of the
campaign, which has been waxing
warm for several weeks, together
with the fact that Engle, being
constantly kept under survell-
ance by relatives, and not being
allowed to get possession of NOR
phine, to the use of which he has
been unfortunate enough to be-
come addicted to, caused his IN
sanity.

occasion to rebuke the practice of soothing
at the foreign mission movement The

said:
"And Gallo, returned from a trip around

way the more / see of those religions over

When Jonah went to Joppa he found
no ship. for the vessel On which he in
tended taking passage had sailed two
DAYS before his arrival; but God
caused a contrary wind to arise and
the ship was driven back TO port In
his Joy Jonah paid his passage money
in advance, contrary to the usual Gus
tom. which did not require payment
until the conclusion OF the voyage. Ac-
cording to some, he paid even the full

THE REINDEER IN ALASKA.
Possibility Of an Increase Which Will
Create a Great Industry.

In 1901 DR.. Sheldon Jackson, the
Alaskan agent of the Bureau of Edu-
cation, brought over from Siberia the
first lot of reindeer, only sixteen, and
started little colony Of them en- I'm
alaska, an island lying off the bleak
coast of Alaska.
At first the experiment was looked
on as rather a waste Of time and
money, but time came to the rescue,
and it was clearly proved that these
animals could be successfully import
ed and taken care of, so that now our
good lawmakers are appropriating
$4,000 annually for increasing the
supply. The reindeer have taken
kindly to the native moss, which
forms their principal article of food,
and, of course, needs no outlay for
cultivation. There is said to be
enough of this moss in Alaska to fur
nish plenty of food for 100000
reindeer.
At the present rate of increase,
even if no more are imported, there
will be at least 100000 reindeer in
Alaska in less than twenty-five years.
To go a step further, it will not be at
all surprising, in the opinion of some,
if this industry should grow to be
one of considerable commercial inn
portance to the United States, and
1t has even been estimated that in
some thirty-five years Alaska may be
in a position to sell annually half
million reindeer carcasses, besides
furnishing several thousand tons OF
hams and tongues.
Each doe may be coun:ed on to add
to the herd fawn year for some
ten years. They also furnish very
rich milk, which is said to make ex-
cellent cheese, the quantity of milk
averaging about a teacupful at a
milking.
The reliability and endurance OF
these animals is remarkable, na,Aing
them invaluable for transportation
service. This is proved by the fact
that they have now for several years
been used to carry the United States
mails on regular routes with the
greatest success and in about half
the time required for dog teams. They
can also be ridden with saddle, and
travel along contentedly with pack
load of $50 pounds. Ameri-

A Test of UraIite.

By invitation from the Metropolitan
Asylums Board number of persons
interested in this particular class OF
building witnessed a practical test by
fire of two nuts specially erected for
the purpose on ground adjacent to
the Fountain Hospital Buildings, loot
ing. One hut was constructed with
timber frame, covered externally
with galvanized corrugated iron, and
having a lining of felt and pine; the
other hut had a timber frame. COW
cred externally with iron and lined
internally with uralite sheets. and
having the face of the wood frame
work covered with uralite strips.
Both huts were filled with infiamma-
bic material. and were set on fire at
the same time. Within half an hour
the first named hut was totally de-
stroyed, while the other hut was none
the worse.
