TRAIL OF BLOOD IN BANK.
Man Murders TWo-Wounds Two 9th
ers-Oefies Armed Crowd,

Bloomington, ILL.,, Oct 29.-Mayor
Charles Nickel of Chenoa was shot and
killed Saturday afternoon in the Bank
of Chenoa; Hugh Jones, a brick
mason, was shot and fatally injured,
dying in the bank, and two passersby
were shot and slightly wounded by
William Leduc, a farmer who lives
near Chenoa. Leduc, after the shoot
ing. dragged the body of Jones into the
bank vault, closed the door and defied
arrest, until he surrendered tonight
to the officers.
Nickle, who was Leduc's brother in
law, was cashier of the bank, as we'll
as mayor OF Chenoa. Leduc came in
from his farm this afternoon, walked
into the bank and without warning
shot Nickle dead. In the bank, beside
Nickle and Hugh Jones, were Cash
Ter Nlckle's son and another small boy
The boys escaped through the back
door.
After Nickle had been shot, Jones
attempted to grapple with the MUIR
derer, but was himself shot by Leduc.
Two men passing along the street,
who Leduc feared might attempt to
capture him, were shot by him, one
in the head, the other in the hand,
but their wounds are not serious.
An immense crowd we'll armed, gath
cred at the bank in an attempt to cap
ture the slayer He drew the door of
the vault almost shut after dragging
Jones' body inside, and would allow
no one to come within range. Leduc
told the officers that Jones was dead.
plentifully in an attempt to overcome
the murderer but he succeeded in get
ting enough air to thwart the effect of
the drugs.
High voltage electric wires were
strung from the electric plant to
the bank, and had Leduc not surren-
dered within a few hours it was
planned to render him helpless by con-
Meeting the wires with the bank vault
and turning on the current. Had this
scheme failed, Leduc was to be starved
into submission. Several hundred
shots were exchanged between the
posse and Leduc. Leduc insisted that
Jones whom he shot and dragged into
the vault was dead. Doubt on this
point was the principal reason why
extreme measures were not taken TO
effect Leduc's surrender. After Le-
due surrendered the dead body of
Jones was found.

The number Of pencils used In the
United States annually, II divided
evenly. would leave only two for each
one of its population. A pair Of pen
ellis year would be a small allow
ance for those requiring them every
day. Yet at this rate, when the total
Of about 1eO,OO0,OOO for the whole
country is calculated, one can not
help wondering how it is possible to
consume such vast number Of pen
ellis.
Some Of the pencils are made in
Germany" but of the entire number
that Americans use nine-tenths are of
home manufacture A considerable
quantity Of this article is also ex-
ported as we'll as imported. The pen
ell factories Of the United States en-
ploy upward Of 1900 persons, paying
them about 100000 in wages every
year. Americas annual output of
pencils is worth s2,OOO,OOO.
The wood most commonly sought
for making pencils is Virginia or red
cedar, which grows abundahtly in the
South, especially in Alabama and
Florida. Europe, having nothing as
good among its own trees for pencil
covering as Virginia cedar, obtains it,
supply of this material from the Unit
ed States. But the American manu-
facturer is compelled to go abroad for
the graphite contained in pencils.
Mexico, Bohemia, Ceylon and Siberia
yield the best qualities of graphite.

with clay, pencil lead consists, Is an
important industry In itself, and it
has its home in Germany.
