SENT TO JAIL.

Lige eagle, living near Morris
Chapel, was lodged in Jail here
Tuesday. He was arrested few
miles south Of Camden by Consta-
BILE John Louis Douglass and Il.
i. Cowell on warrant sworn out
by NJ RS. Francis Helms of Sawyer
Mill, charging eagle with abduc-
ton of her daughter, Lizzie John
son, Sunday afternoon.
1t is said that eagle went to the
home of the Widow Helms Sunday

sum to stay with his wife while he
went in search of work, claiming
that he lived only few miles from
the switch, They left her home
about 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon,
with out the consent of the mother,
according to her statement.
The young lady claims that he
brought her through the woods
nearly all the way to Camden, and
charges that he made indecent pro-
posaIs DO her. They arrived here
Sunday nightin the rain, and after
borrowing an overcoat and lantern
they went on to his home.
tits said that eagle told so many
conflicting accounts of his place of
residence and occupation the girls
mother became alarmed, and rela-
tives and friends went in search of

handcuffed eagle made his escape.
When recaptured he was securely

WANTS A NEW TRIAL
Found Guilty of Murder in

convicted last night OF murder ia the
first degree, for the shooting OF Mary
+. Hamilton one year ago, viii be
made shortly by Attorneys James =.
Easily Smith and r p Huliard, cOun-
sci for the convicted man.
A motion for new trial was made
last night. when a verdict Of guilty
was returned by the jury in Justice
Gould's court at $50 o'clock, having
been out three hours and torty-hve
minutes.
The defense tried TO show that the

timony was adduced on this point. and
by reason Of IL the defense expected
at least a verdict Of second degree
murder only.
