LITTLE BOY a HERO.
Cuts Rope Of Would-be Suicide Near
PIeasantvilIe.

SpeCldl 10 ll1QeS-fepuDllCdu.
Pleasantville. July Little Arlie
Routh, little boy of 9 years, by his
great presence of mind, saved the life
of William Kubli, young farmer liv-
ing on the border of the town.
The young man has been acting
strangely for some time. Yesterday
evening he went to grove near his
home and stripping the bark from a
hickory tree, twisted it into rope.
One end was then tied to- a limb sew
eral feet above the ground and the
other end noosed about his neck Ku-
bill then deliberately jumped and was
thus suspended when the little Routh
vboy happened along. and at once cut
the inlprovised rope. Kubli was un-
conscious. but was resuscitated by the
prompt action of physicians. He was
taken to Knoxville on the night train.
examined by the insanity board. and
bein stdjudged insane was this morn
ing taken to the hospital at Mount
Pleasant.

entail people. conspired to secure the
death by hanging of William D. Hay
wood. Charles H. Moyer, and George A.
Pettibone, and that incidentally the
mine owners are directly responsible
for the killing of fourteen men in the
independence depot.
The evidence so far introduced by
the defense goes TO prove that or
chard, knowing of the blowing up of
the Bunker Hill and Sullivan Concen-
traitor in 1899; of the explosion in the
vindicator mine: of the blowing up of
the Independence depot; of the killing
of Lyte Gregory, and of the explosion
at Bradley's residence in San Fran
cisco, accused himself of having COM
mitted the crimes and the murder OF
seventeen men, when in fact he had lit
tie or no personal connection with any
Of them.
Witnesses have sworn that Orchard
was not at Wardner on the day the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan Concentrator
was blown up; that the facts connect
ed with the Vndicator mine tend to the
conclusion that the explosion was accl-
dental; that while Orchard may have
been present when the Independence
depot was destroyed, Steve Adams was
in fact the man who was employed by
the mine owners to blow UP a piece of
useless property, but that blunder re-
suited in loss of life; that Lyte Gregory
was murdered by persons connected
with the United Mine Workers and
not at the instance of the Western
Federation, and that Orchard. possess
sing mania, for boasting of the COM
mission of great crimes. was lying
when he said he had any connection
with the bomb at Bradley's house.
Evidence also has been introduced to
show that both Orchard and Smpkins
had personal motives for killing former
Governor Steunenberg, and that Simp-
kins' motive, was the stronger of the
two, in that he was subjected to unjust
punishment and torture at the hands
of negro troops called in by Steunen-
berg in 1890.
Further evidence as to the explosion
at the Bradley house is yet to come.
Dispositions from Mr.. Bradley will be
introduced. They were made recently
in San Francisco. Bradley swears
that the explosion was due to an ac-
cumulation of escaping gas, and that
the owner of the house secured a
judgment for damages against the gas
company.
The defense has not attempted to
deny the presence of Jack Simpkins in
Caldwell in company with Orchard,
shortly before the murder of Steunen-
berg. It has been repeatedly stated
that counsel for the defense knew of
the whereabouts of Simpkns, who had
been a fugitive since Steunenberg' s
murder 1T is not fatty stated, as COM
ing from outside sources that Simpkins
is dead, and it is possible that evidence
may be produced to this effect.
Haywood may go on the stand this
week and make his statement Coun-
Sci for the state believe that the de-
fense will be obliged to put Steve
Adams on the stand. The prosecution
believe that should Adams go on the
stand they will be able to get before
the jury the confession which he re-
pudiated, but which, il is understood,
strongly supports Orchard.
