SCENTED BY B~LOODHOUNDS.
A Posse Followed the Trail During
the Night, But Lost il at OakdaIe.

Louisville, KY, June 25.-A dis
patch from Jackson, KY, says the
posse headed by Sheriff Callahan,
which has been on the trail of the
man who is supposed to have shot
and killed Mack White from ambush,
followed their nan during the night,
but lost him at Oakdale. Sheriff
Callahan thinks the fugitive secured
a horse there.
Judge Callahan, at Jackson, today
issued warrants, for the arrest of
James and Cass Salciers, on the charge
of numbering White. The blood
hounds on the scent with the posse
ran into the Salciers' home and
prompted the posse to ask for the
warrants. Both Salciers have disap-
peared and are said to have left on
horseback.
Lexington, KY, June 25.-Captain
v. C. Millikin, owner of the dogs that
trailed the assassin of White in
Breathitt county, has arrived in Lex
ington with his dogs. He said a man
named Shot is also suspected, and a
warrant will be issued for Shot. He
met Millikin at the depot n was
one of the pursuing posse. AS soon
as he saw the dogs strike a trail he
left the posse and went through the
mountains. 1t is believed he warned
the Salciers, as nothing more was
seen Of him..

The Firefies of Japan.

There are several places in Japan
which are famous for fireflies. In q
valley near IshiyAnA, by the lake Oni
the swarming of the firefiies during
the hot season WAS reckoned one OF
the marvels of the country. At Vii.
in the center Of the tea district, they
still attract Thousands Of people to see
them. The most remarkable spectacle
is, however. to be seen some miles
farther down the river. where the
stream winds between hills covered
with vegetation. and my.iads Of fire.
fiies dart about over. the water and
some times cling just above it. Some
times they mass together in . sort Of
luminous cloud or sparkling ball.
The effect is strangely beautifu! and
people wait all night in boats on the
river to ENJOY the sight.
