Trial Delayed.

+. J. Tesla was discharged by Judge
De Bolt yesterday morning. the mo-
tion to quash his Indictment for
criminal libel having been granted.
Deputy Attorney General Peters, when
the motion came up for argument,
stated that the Territory confessed
the part of the plea in abatement
which related TO Grand Juror Ed
wards The court at once granted the
prayer of the motion and ordered the
defendant discharged.
Attorneys Stewart and Long chai-
lenged the right of the present grand
jury to bring any Indictment against
the defendant.
Mr.. Peters said he did not confess
all of the allegations In the plea as
to Edwards,
Judge De Bolt remarked that he
could not see any right the defendant
| might have at that time.
Solomon Meheu1a's trial for gross
cheat, alleged to have been committed
| while he was clerk of tine House of
Representatives last year, was again
postponed yesterday morning. The
cause this time was the fact that only
10 qualified jurors were In attendance.
Attorney General Andrews, who APP
peared for the Territory. expressed a
willingness to proceed to trial with
the twelve men whose names should
first be drawn. C. w. Ashford, for
the defendant, would not so have it.
AS talesmen then required to be sum-

case until Monday.
Meantime Mr.. Ashford has signified
his intention to attack the Indictment,
the discovery having been made that

LONGEVITY OF, LITERATI.

It was interesting to note, in the list
of literary men and women who have
died since January 1, 1904, which the
Reader Magazine published last month,
the extraordinary average of longevity.
Mrs. Latimer had reached the age of 81,
Citizen Train had passed rs years OF
vivid life; Won Hoist, the scholar, had
gone too. soon at IS; Hallowell. the
Quaker, was So; Deschanel, the lit
terateur, was IS; Mrs. Ketchem, VINO,
in her youth, wrote the gallant and
haunting lines of 1.-THE Bonnie Blue
Flag was in her 80th year; Rev. Dr..
Cooper, the philosopher, was 70; Pro-
fessor Powell. the historian, had spent
rs studious years: Erastus Wiman was
70, and Sir Leslie Stephen left the lie
in which he had found so much OF
interest, taste and fine pleasure, after
II years of discriminating enjoyment.
A number of other writers departed
this world of more or less futile activi-
ties, at so and So. Only one of the list,
Professor Beecher, of Yale, had cried
quits before reaching the half century
mark
This bears witness to the fact that
the career of the literary worker Is not
a hazardous one at least, so Tar as
our sane, grave, temperate American
writer's are concerned. It seems to be
different with those who have a flame
within them. The last few years have
seen some gallant adventures in the
world of thought go down-though with
colors flying. be it said. De Maupas-

have formed an organization, and

lured by falling on fence, one of

Ihere were two wounds; in all pro-
liability the boy was lifted or lifted

wounds being internal, no accurate

That Pomeroy Robbery.

Pomeroy, o., Sept. 1.-THE
county commissioners, at session
held behind closed doors last eve-
ming, offered a reward of $500, to
which Treasurer Chase has added
5000, making $1,000, to so to the
officer who can locate and appre-
hend the men who robbed the
treasury last week.
1t is the general impression
that the bonding company will re-
sist the payment of the claim of
$4,000 for which the treasury
was insured against robbery.
Every detective, the commits
sioners say, who has appeared on
the scene representing the bond
ing company has at once set to
work to acquire a string of cir
cumstances pointing to conspir-
acy.
So far not single effort has
been made to run down any of
the clews presented.
Treasurer Chase has been al
most frantic because of the fail
ure of the local authorities to
make any move.
The commissioners received a
letter this morning mailed on a
Pennsylvania railroad train be-
tween Columbus and Pittsburg
and dated September 13, as fol-
lows:
"To the Commissioners Of
Pomeroy, O.-Gentlemen: There
is no use of your offering re-
ward for that little job. We got
the dough and we are going to
spend 1t. We are sorry, but we
need the money and we saw the
fair also. We will probably pay
you visit in the near future.

"One of the old Blinky Nor
gan gang that you never catch.

fretting or worrying, because that
will not get you anything"

mystery of the robbery of the

thousand dollars, September o,
seems to begin to unravel. AT
noon today Duncan Croy, a promi-

from Marietta and informed the
authorities that horse and buggy
had been found in Barlow town
ship, Washington county, secreted
in deep woods. The horse was
securely fastened and had the ap-
pearance of having been there sew
eral days. 1t was a light bay
horse and had been stolen, few
days before the robbery, at New
