ing the murderer of Officers Persona
us. Sheriff Oppegard promised to wire
as soon as he had seen the prisoner
and proved or disproved his identity as
the man Shorting. Not word had
been received by the local police, the
sheriff's Office or the Northern Pacific
1t is an even guess that the sheriff
has the man or that he has not. 1t
will not be known until he reaches the
city.
The jamestown Capital says:
"Blackie" was a resident of jamestown
for some time this year and was EN-
ployed in the round house restaurant

the name of F. NJ. Sharping, but was
generally called "Blackie" He was a
good man for the place. in it is said.
and worked acceptably to Mr.. Noel
for several months, leaving his employ
July 4th. He remained in jamestown
for about two weeks afterwari and
then left for Fargo where he since has
remained. except for a brief visit to
jamestown later, 1t is said. He was
obliging and seemed to be we'll liked,
He had nothing of the appearance of
a tough, it is said, except that he
claimed to have been a prize fighter
in his time and could do a pretty good
stunt now with his mitts.
"Blackie" was seen in jamestown
Wednesday morning in the railroad
yards. This was before the large re-
ward for his arrest was generally
known and that he was the man so
much desired in connection with the
Valley City murder. "Blackie" was
dressed as usual. when seen here, and
it is not known that he was seen here
afterward, but that afternoon a man
answering his description appeared in
Bismarck and enquired for mail at
the postoffice. But by the time the
authorities were notified no trace of
him was found.
A suspect was picked up here last
night by the police and held for time
but he did not answer the description.
"Blackie" has a mug" that can not
be mistaken, say those who were ac-
quainted with him, and It is not be-
lieved he can long evade the author
tiles for every efforts being made to
locate him. He is about % years old,
five feet six. sallow skin, quick in
speech, smokes cigaretts which he
rolls himself, and wore a black hat
and shirt, dark suit.

a prominent member of the church.

society, of which she is a member, and
has had her pastor to tea time and
again for the last fifteen years.
During the greater part of this time
her employee, Albert Colson. has paid

suspected it. Colson wanted the VIII
lage to know that he was the accepted
sutton of the rich widow. and he de-
sired to be received at the front door

In this cave. it is alleged. was found
a ten-gallon still. which. with the aid
OF Colson. the widow had operated to
great profit while she was an influ-

HOODO0 SEEMS TO PURSUE

abled List in Space of q Few
Months.


Chatham, England, Sept. 5.-The
trials of the new first-class battleship
Africa, of 1880 tons, which have
been going on previous to the vessel
being placed on the active list of the
navy, have been postponed, owing to
some defects having developed.
This is the latest misadventure in a
run of extraordinary ill-luck which
has been attending the British navy
during the last few months and
which the advocates of strong navy
are using to urge the admiralty to
adopt more forward policy.
Besides the Africa. no less than
seven battleships have been placed
out of action within few months. OF
these the Montague was wrecked on
Lundy Island and is no better than
scrap iron, the admiralty having aban-
doned it,
The others are the Duncan. which
touched rick while endeavoring to
float the Montague. and which is now
locked at Portsmouth,; the Hindustan,
which was badly strained while dock
ing at Gibraltar, and was brought
nome for repairs; the Dominion. which
sustained damage while on its way t.
Quebec. and which is reported to be
leaking; the Families. rammed by the
Resolution during the maneuvers; the
Prince of Wales, brought home from
the Mediterranean because its engines
were disabled: and the Renown, par
TALLY disarmed and converted into a
yacht.
To this long list OF disabled vessels
can be added the armored cruiser
7 Good Hope, which struck reef during
the maneuvers. the repairs on which
are about completed.
1t Is pointed out by the navy league
that this record of misadventures en-
phasizes the necessity for the maintn-
anc eof an ample margin If Great
Britain is to continue to command the
sea.
