THE JACKSONS
SURRENDERED | | I RI R
TWO BROTHERS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE KILLINGS In JAIL
They Had Been Hidden In Coat
Mine and Suffered so Severely From
Hunger and Cold They Decided TO
Give Themselves Up.

Charleston, w. Va, Nov. 14.-Ed-
ward and George Jackson, the two
brothers of Montgomery, for whom re-
wards have been offered by both state
and county authorities, have surrendered
and are now in the county jail at
Charleston. The men had been secreted
in an abandoned coal mine Just outside
Montgomery, and were driven to sur-
render by hunger and cold. Word was
sent to Montgomery by a mountaineer
and on arrival Of Squire Davis and
constable the men gave themselves up
without struggle Since the shooting
of Sheriff Daniel, Thursday, and their
subsequent disappearance. the men spent
the time in the coaY mine secreted from
their pursuers and the bloodhounds that
were put on their track. During this
time they were without food and drink.
The officials took the men around the
town of Montgomery and by rounda-
bout way brought the prisoners to
Charleston to avoid riot or lynching
| which would have evidently occurred
had the citizens of Montgomery discov-
cred that the Jackson brothers had been
apprehended. There are now six pris-
oners implicated in the Montgomery
| shooting in the Charleston Jail 1t is not
considered safe to hold the hearing of
any Of them at the present time.

HUMAN BODIES EMIT
DIFFERENT OLORED RAYS

London, Nov. IA. - Experiments
numbering over 900, conducted over
term of three years, have formed the
subject matter for communication
from physician to a wellknown medi-
cal journal to the effect that the rays
emitted by the human body differ in
color according to the character and
temperament of the person. The fol-
lowing particulars. are given by the
writer:
The rays emanating from a very pas
sionate man have a deep red hue, one
whose keynote in life is to be good and
to do good throws off pink rays The
ambitious man emits orange rays; the
deep thinker deep; the lover of art and
refined surroundings yellow, and the
depressed person gray One who leads
low debauched life throws off mud
dy brown rays; "a devotional, good
meaning person light blue; progress
sive-minded person light green, and a
physically or mentally ill one dark
green.
The doctor admits that his theory
is. apt to be received with incredulity
and amusement, but he asserts that
tits strengthened by the fact that the
color sense Of the human race was
many thousand years. in reaching its
present stage of development.

BIG VOTE IN
WARD COUNTY
THE PEOPLE OF WARD
WANT MORE LEGISLATORS
They Cast More Votes Than the Big
b Red River Valley Counties and Want
More Representation In the Legis-
Iature. ts@ '.,T1 .+

Minot, N. D., Nov. I4.-Fuller re-
turns from over the judicial district
indicate Goss won by about 100. Goss
carried Ward County by 1891, and
Williams by 90. Palda carried Botti-
neau County by liz and McHenry by
2a2. 1t was a rather peculiar condition
that each candidate should have car
ried the others home county. Ward
piled up the big vote that won for Goss
SO handsomely, despite the fact that
Palda is a resident of the county.
I. The republican candidates in this
county won on large majorities. Nc
Gee for states attorney had 3,572 to Il
736 for Greenleaf. Lee for sheriff got
1896 to Sinclair's I,48o. Warren de-
feated Miss Frost for superintendent
OF schools 3,432 to 1876. Louis Lar
son, the candidate for auditor on the
Murphy ticket, got less than 500 votes,
while Fabrick received .3,522 and Nc
Hugh, democrat, I,o56 Nehemiah Da-
Wis, formerly Of Fargo, candidate for
county judge, got 3,4oo, Barrett 1000,
and Murray, the Murphy candidate ,84r.
The county cast nearly 5000 votes OF,
some Of the candidates and showed the
greatest increase of any county in the
state. Cass County, the largest in the
Red River Valley, cast only about HI
Boo votes, 300 less that the compara-
lively new county of Ward.
A new Legislative apportionment is
necessary in fairness to this section ol
the state. Cass, with 4,8oo votes, has
three state senator's and nine members
Eof the lower house, or total Of twelve
iii three districts. Ward County with
more votes, does not even have a
complete legislative district, as it is
combined with Williams. Ward with
one-sixtli more votes has only three
members Of the legislature to twelve
from Cass County.
This county will have larger rep
rcsentation In the next state conven-
tion than any other iii the state.

perfectly satisfied with tile legality Of
the warrant and advised Weber to ac-
company him 70 the jail without making
any unnecessary trouble or causing d
scene.

coat, announced that he was ready and
with little loss of time the sheriff
brought laiin to the JAIL The prison
doors had scarcely closed behind him
before he asked to be allowed to con-
