Rev. ]. A. Mcclure Mistaken
for a Horse Thief

The following dispatch from
Winchester was published in yes
terday's daily papers, referring to
an embarrassing situation of Rev.
j. A. Mcclure, we'll known in Lex
ington, where he was for a number
of years a popular student at
Washington and Lee University :;
While on his way to conduct the
funeral service over the remains of
a friend, Rev. j. A. Mcclure, pastor
of the Presbyterian church at
Front Royal, was mistaken for a
man who had stolen horse and
buggy from a livery stable. The
mistake was made by persons in
pursuit of the thief. Mr.. Mcclure
was arrested, and after being
locked up in a store at Rio, w.
Va, SO miles from here, succeeded
in establishing his identity. and
was released, but was too late to
attend the funeral.
Ignorant of the fact that he was
being pursued as horse thief all
the way from Winchester To Rio,
Mr.. Mcclure drove peacefully
along, and was surprised when he
reached Rio to find crowd of
800 people gathered to await his
coming, headed by a constable,
who informed the minister that he
was under arrest.
The minister was then locked up
in the village store to await the
arrival Of the owner OF the stolen
property. The owner put in an
appearance q few hours later, but,
of course, was unable to identity
the horse and buggy. Mr.. Nc
Clurs was thereupon released.
A large crowd turned out on
Sunday at the church to hear Mr.
Mcclure relate his experience.

May,22- MI. Walter Kent, accompani-
ed by Miss George Barnett few days
since was driving spirited horse TO
buggy and in going through gate AT
the home OF Miss Barnett. the gate was
accidently turned loose striking u
wheel of the buggy which caused the
horse to take fright and start TO run.
Mr.. Kent leaped TO the reins only to
be thrown under the horse and receiv-
ed several cuts about the head and face
and for a short while was unconscious.
Miss Barnett, with splendid nerve
and presence of mind, guided the
horse and buggy through an orchard,
passing between two fence posts and
brought the runaway toa standstill In
a fence corner. Miss Barnett's friends
who witnessed the accident called to
her to leap from the buggy, but ny
remaining calm and keeping her seat
probably saved her life or a serious
mishap.
Corn, wheat and grass are looking
as well as could be expected after
the cool dry season. Some fields oi

MOB VIOLENCE ENDS.
Population Of Toxic Allayed by Gov
eminent Announcement-Le
ton Guards Withdrawn.

Toxic, Sept. 11.-Mob violence has
subsidized and popular indignation has
been considerably allayed by an an
nouncement by the government that
the report that Cape Soya, on La Pc
rouse straits, could not be fortified by
Japan is unfounded, the only stipulation
made with Russia being in regard to
the free passage of the straits.
Gen. Sakuna has withdrawn the
guards from the foreign legations,
which are deemed to be in no danger
and without the necessity of strong pro-
lection. However, sentries in small
squads continue to watch the legations
and the military patrols have been ex-
tended in order to completely protect
the city. There have been no further
demonstrations against churches or
missions. 1t was feared for time that
the crowds might menace the larger
foreign missionary establishments at
Tsukiji and Aoyama, but the principal
establishments have not been disturbed.
Yokohama. Sept. 13.-Seven thousand
persons attended meeting called for
the purpose of protesting against the
terms of the peace treaty. The meeting
adopted a resolution favoring the resig-
nation of the ministers and the safe.
guarding of the future by more careful
use of the ballot. The meeting dispersed
quietly.

STRANGER IS A SUICIDE.
Expiates an Old Murder for Which an
Innocent Man Was
Hanged.

Minot, N. D., Sept. 14.-Around his
neck shred of green yelling with
which he had strangled girl to death
more than 30 years ago, for the kill
ing of whom an innocent man was
hanged, Charles Herzig was found life
less Wednesday in the wilderness, aft
er leaving written confession of the
murder and story to the effect that
the ghost of Lizzie Grombacher, his
victim. haunted him increasingly from
the moment he allowed Charles Ster-
ling to be taken to the gallows as her
murderer.
Herzig chose the same kind of death
that the law meted out to Sterling.
He hanged himself to the limb of a
tree. Before he fastened the fatal
moose he tucked under the knot The
shred of yelling that connected him
with the old murder. He also pinned
note written on piece of wrapping
paper to his breast to reveal his iden-
tity il case his body was found.
This note, his dying message to a
world he thought never might read it,
is as follows:
''My name is Charles Herzig. Over
80 years ago l assaulted and murdered
young girl named Lizzie E. Grom-
bache;, near Youngstown, o. Charles
Sterling, an innocent man. was tried,
convicted and hanged for the murder
ci this girl. If my body is ever found,

PLANT BLOWN UP.
Terrible Disaster at Fairchance, Pa.
Nineteen Persons Known
to Be Dead.

Fairchance, Pa, Sept. 11.-All ten
buildings of the Rand powder plant
were torn to atoms, and probably Is
men were killed, scores were injured,
many seriously, thousands of lives
were imperiled, and dozens of houses
were overturned by series of terrific
explosions Saturday morning, which
shook the country for 30 miles around.
Small pieces of bodies were picked
up all over the place. These were not
collected together, and many sections
of human beings were thrown back
into the debris where they were found.
Almost half mile mountainward
from the plant an Office oversleeve, wet
with blood, was picked up. One little
boy carried to his mother single part
of mans hand. All day at short in
tervals searchers would bring in bits
of bodies or clothing. Some of these
finds were carried in dishpans or dam.
aged powder cans with which the
ground is strewn for acres. The hole
where the magazine exploded is about
is feet deep. and so yards square. The
earth, black and soggy. is thrown up
in huge chunks. some of them weigh
ing hundred pounds.

L" CAR FALLS TO STREET
Awful Disaster in New York City in
Which Twelve Lives
Are Lost.

New York, Sept. 12-Twelve per.
sons were killed and more than 20
injured when the second car of a
Ninth avenue elevated train jumped
the track and fell from the structure
10 the street at the junction of the
Sixth and Ninth avenue lines at
F1fty-third street and Ninth avenue
Monday. The accident, the worst in
the history of the overhead railroads
in New York, came when a south
bound train on the North avenue line
was switched off to the Sixth avenue
line at the FifIy-third street junction.
Inc motorman, expecting clear
track on the direct line of Ninth ave.
nue., or disregarding the warning sig
nal that the switch was open, rushed
MS train along at high rate of speed.
Inc first car swung around to right
angle curve, holding to the rails be-
cause OF the weight of the train be-
mind. Then the strain became too
great. The couplings broke, the Sec
ond car was whirled about almost
end for end.
Suddenly the outer guard rail of
the railroad structure gave way, a
score of bodies were hurled through
space, and with a deafening crash the
car fell to the street. For an instant
1t stood fairly on end Then the sides
gave way as If they were made of
pasteboard belching out q mass Of
humanity. Those passengers who had
not jumped from platforms and win
dows before the plunge came. were
thrown into a mass at the forward
end OF the car. AS the injured men
and women were struggling to free
themselves, the heavy front trucks Of
the third car on the train fell almost
In their midst as the car itself jumped
partly off the elevated structure and
was wedged against building at
the southeast corner of Ninth avenue
and Fifty-third street.
