Will Move Burial Ground.

The old burial grounds on Center
street, where Tor years ruin and
desol alton have held full sway, is
soon to be changed. The congre-
CATION of the Lutheran church at a
meeting held last evening, decided
to petition the Court for leave to
remove the dead bodies.
Hundreds of bodies are inferred
in the old cemetery and their re-
moval will entail the expenditure
of much time and labor. Time has
long since destroyed all means of
Identification of many of the graves,
in numerous instances there is not
as much as flag stone remaining.
The Lutheran and Reformed con-
gregations are joint owners of the
ground, they having come into
possession OF it years ago when
they worshipped together in a
frame church which at that time
stood on the cemetery lot facing
First street. The deed for the
ground was recorded while Colum-
bia was yet part of Northumber-
land County, and it is now at Sun
bury, where N. U. Funk Esq.
representing the Reformed con-
gregation went to look it up.
William Chrisman Esq, repre-
sents the Lutheran congregation.
The petition will probably be pre-
sented at the March session of
Argument Court.

Fort Scott, Kan, Oct. 12.-George F.
Riggin, his wife. Mrs. Belle Riggin, and
the formers stepdaugnLer, CIarissa
Shaw, will be arraigned befort J. r.
Smith, justice of the peace, today,
charged with murder in the first degree
in the death from starvation of Her
bert Riggin, 6 years old, Higgins son
by d former wife. The preliminary
hearing was to have been Wednesday,
but as the district court. in which the
case viii be called, was occupied with
the trial of another case, a postpone
ment was ordered.
Mr.. and Mrs. Riggin and Clarissa
Shaw were brought here before day
light from Girard, where they had been
taken for safe keeping, and were
placed in the Bourbon county jail All
talk of mob violence apparently has
died out, but as a precaution the sher-
if has placed an extra. guard over the
Jail That very great interest is mani
tested in the case was shown Wednes-
day, when a crowd that filed the court
room and corridors and extended out
into the yard assembled. Riggin has
hired J. r. Sheppart and c. B. Griffith
to defend him. Mrs. Riggin and the
girl are without lawyers and it is pro-
bable the court will name an attorney
to act for them. When neighbors told
of the alleged cruelties to his boy Rig
gin dismissed the attorney ne had hired
for his wife and stepdaughter.
higgins made good money as a fore
man in the rOundhouse at the Missouri
Pacific shops. 1t is known that his
wife always cashed the checks and was
supposed to pay the bills. The grocery
bills show that there was plenty to eat
in the house at all times, of the best
on the market. When the trouble came
up it developed that none of the bills
had been paid for some time, a large
grocery bill and meat bill OF more
than $50 standing unpaid. The woman
had no money. and nothing is known
as to what she did with his earnings.
The family had no clothing to speak
of. and the girl who is under arrest
was so thinIy clad that Deputy Sheriff
Hesser was compelled to give her his
coat while on the way to and from
the trains at Girard and in this city.
