the misfortune to have his case con-

Jail, telling him that its accommoda-
lions were too '.home-like.'
I'll be willing to plead guilty to the

on we are keeping you away from
your many friends who are temper

we are keeping you at the city Jail is
because there is another charge to be

matter a thorough investigation, with
the result as indicated.
Robert Hindhaw, accused of violat-
ing the liquor law, was required to
give bond in thirty-three cases. Mar

THE WORK OF F|ENDS'
PLOT TO KILL A FAMILY
Dynamite is Placed in the Yard of a
Muncic Man and His Sons Hand
is Torn in an Explosion of the
Stuff.

Muncle, Ind, Feb, 25.-As The re
suit of the explosion of a stick of
dynamite, believed TO have been plac-
ed in the yard of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis
Conyers for the purpose of doing
them injury. Carl, the five-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Conyers, had the
thumb ard index fingers OF one hand
blown off yesterday. He was other
wise injured, but will recover.
Mr.. Conyers threatens TO file char
ges against persons whom he has UNI
der suspicion. Their names have not
been made public. If Conyers' sup
positions are correct, the outrage was
caused by trivial dispute between
his family and some former friends.
He says that threats have been made
against his life.
The older son in the Conyers fam
lily found the dynamite in the yard
several days ago, and, not knowing
what it was, gave it to Carl for
plaything After first carrying it to
school with him for few days. he
became inquisitive and put the dyna-
mite on the kitchen stove, where it
exploded. tearing off part of the hand
and seriously damaging the rear of
the house.
This morning search of the prem
Uses resulted in the discovery of
large number of dynamite caps in
the yard. Whether they were placed
there after or before the explosion,
is not known. 1t is said the explo

RHOD|US' WIFE A PRISONER
CHARGED WITH KIDNAPPING
Woman Who Claims She Was Wed
ded to the indianapolis Millionaire,
Now Under Arrest in a Little Town
In Pennsylvania.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 25.-Unless
there is hitch at the Pennsylvania
end of the Rhodius-Dare controversy.
Elma Dare, the alleged wife of George
during the next few days, prisoner,
charged with having kidnapped the
| man il is said she married at Louis
vile several days ago.
The woman was arrested Sunday aft
ernoon at Cambridge Springs, Pa,
and a move to secure extradition pa
pers was taken up this morning by
John w. Claypool, who represents the
old time friends of Rhodius.
This morning, Cass Connaway, who
appears as the attorney of the Dare
woman succeeded in getting the
decision in the eXtradition pro-
ceedings delayed until three
o'clock this afternoon. AT that
hour there was a strong array of at
torneyS in the governors office where
they were TO be given an opportunity
of going into the details of the case.
Attorney Connaway objected to the
issuance of requisition papers on the
grounds that the information on which
the charge was made against his eli
ent was not based on sufficient evil
dence, and at the same time he con-
tended that it was simply scheme to
get the woman back so that Rhodlus
could be brought back to the state.
Il fl,<
davit of Charles T. Williams, clerk
in the office of Attorney Claypool was
perfectly proper. and that the court.
which had issued the warrant must de-
eide the fact of sufficient evidence.
The governor held that he was not to
decide the right of the court, but the
question of the issuance of requisi-
ton for the return of a woman charged
with kidnapping.
Attorney Connaway then entered a
second objection and that was to the
effect that there was conspiracy to
get the woman back, hoping that by
so doing, Rhodius would return to the
state where the guardian appointed
could get hold of him.
After hearing all that Attorney Con-
naway had to say on the subject, Gov
ernor Hanly announced that he would
issue the requisition and added the fur
Their statement that he was of the
opinion that there should be some way
to get the unfortunate man back
among his friends. The governor
could not understand why man sup
posed to be ill, had been dragged all
over the east by the woman who claim
y. Il be
reason why. if all was right, that they
had not returned to this city at once.
officers left here this evening for
Cambridge Springs, armed with the
reuuisition for the RhodiuS woman,
and will arrive at their destination to-
morrow morning at 10 O'Clock.
