against John it is not known. Young feels confident or
|.acquittal in September, and is reported as expressing a
fear that the young hired man may not be at the trial
promptly and thus another postponement be demanded
by the state. Public opinion is at sea as to
who killed Geo. Todd, choked the Hincdey woman that
she might give up her money, and stole the valuable team
and buggy. 1t was supposed for a long time that the
same hand had killed Jacob Johnson, but he came back.
The sheriff who found Johnson will ask for the $500 re-
ward offered for him dead or alive. This matter will
come up at the board meeting next week.
Fourteen inches of water has fallen here during May

Noted Correspondent and
Traveller.

Few newspapers in the United
States are able to command the ser
vices of as brilliant a corps Of cores
pendent as The Chicago Record Herald
Its choice Of a Washington c~orrespon-
dent is Indicative OF The Record
Herald's policy of obtaining the best
there is to be had. Walter
Wellman, the well-known author on
political subjects and one of the alb
lest writers Of the day, acts in that
capacity.
Mr.. Wellman was born in Mentor,
Ohio. Nov. 3 1858. At IA he be-
gan his newspaper experience, estab-
fishing at that age a weekly paper in
the little town of Sutton, Neb. In
1878 he returned to Ohio, and a year
later established the Cincinnati Even
ing Post. In 1884 he became the
Washington correspondent Of the
Chicago Herald, and in 1892 he visited
Central America and the West Indies
and located the landing place Of Col
umbus on Watlng's tSan SALVADOR is
land, and marked the spot with a
stone monument. Mr.. Wellman's
dashes for the north pole are well
known. In 1894 he made she first Of
his two arctic voyages of exploration,
reaching the latitude of 81 degrees
northeast Of Spitzbergen. In 1898 he
returned to the north, penetrated TO
Frank Josef Land, returning again
10 this country in 1899. On each trip
he met with wonderful success in the
d~iscovey Of new islands and lands, and
brought back with scientific data and
information of great value TO the
American Geographical Society.
Mr.. Wellman has been a yoluminous
writer fer scientific magazines and
popular periodicals. On returning
from from his artic trips he renewed
his connection with The Record-Her-
aid, and is now the Washington cor
respondent of that paper. His Incl
sive discussion of contemporary affairs
has given him a high place in the re-
gard Ofstatesmen and scientists Of the
day.

and directed the lost man on his Journey south. A month
later when Todd was found murdered the young hired
man recalled the daylight visit Of the b~ewildered traveller
which time tailed with the supposed date of the killing.
Elmer Young, an escaped convict, was said to have been
at the hcme Of his father and brothers Is miles west Of
Washington Springs during the summer and fall. The
appearance of the mysterious stranger that morning as
given by the young hired hand pointed to Elmer Young
