A Jail Delivery Frustrated.

There was to have been perhaps a
murder/and jail delivery at the jail
in this city Saturday night, but our
vigilant Jailer, Geo. w. Judy, got an
inkling of the proposed plans and it
didn't come off. Jailer Judy was in
formed early in the day that one,
lobe Bedinger, who was given five
Years sentence to the penitentiary at
la6t term of court for burglary, had a
club secreted under his mattress in
his cell. And when the turnkey,
Geo. Mappin, was to go in Saturday
afternoon to make the prisoners take
their usual baths, Bedinger intended
to knock him in the head with this
club take his keys and escape. Ed.
Parker, waiting trial upon the charge
Of shooting and wounding, and Will
Henry Williams, awaiting to be taken
to the pen for two years, were in the
plot with Bedinger. Jailer Judy wait
ed until the afternoon and paid visit
to Bedinger's cell and upon investi-
CATION found the club hidden under
the mattress as he was informed it
was. They do say, that Roosevelt is
not in it at all with Jailer Judy when
it comes to using the "big stick"
and Bedinger swears he will never
plan another job while boarding with
him. All of the prisoners are colored,
and the Bedinger negro is one of the
most desperate criminals that ever
lived in Paris, and a five years SEN
tence to the penitentiary is not what
such as he deserve. 1t is a pity there
is not law where a fresh man could
have begun work where Jailer Judy
left off and finished the job so he
could never plan again to murder "a
turnkey in discharge of one of his
duties.

CIVILIAN PHYSICIANS

! Washington Sept. 22,--The work Of
civilian physicians in examining recruits
for the army has proven so unsatisfac-
tory that their services will be entirely
dispensed with in that capacity after
Sept. 80. "a
This decision is contained in general
orders issued at the war department to-
day. The fees to civilian physicians for
this work has averaged 100000 annually.
Complaints from army officers OF the
bad physical condition of the recruits
have been increasing and the govern.
ment has been put to great expense in
issuing equipment and paying transport
tation for men entering the service who
had to be condemned and discharged
before they had rendered any service
because Of glaring physical defects. The

ment of the army makes it impossible
