20 the bank TO deposit the money she
remembered having been roughly 1OstIed
by negro while looking in the window.
The mother Of the child states that
her daughter told her last night that
the man who had robbed her placed
his hand over her mouth to prevent her
screaming and then snatched the bills
and ran. Still another version of the
alleged robbery IS told by a playmate
Of Miss Dick. The girl says that Miss

WoodchopDers Find Body.

Saturday noon a party Of wood chop
pers and log draggers. while ascending
the side Of South Mountain. detected
blood stains IN the snow and saw traces
Of body having been dragged toward the
house. Following the tracks. they came
to the little hut. The front door was
open. Through It snow had been blown
and was dyed a deep scarlet with Mrs
Bowers blood. Under the snowdrift
they were Mortified to find the mangIed
body Of the aged woman.
Beside the mass Of flesh and bone and
blood lay a heavy axe, the blade of
which was ClOtted with blood. Other
than an upset chair, there was no indI-
cation OF struggle. The bedstead was
covered with gore, matted hair. and
pieces OF bone and flesh. Three or four
axe blade gashes abOEt five inches deep
We're found o. the footposts Of tho
cheap oak bed
What happened IN tho death chamber
can only be surmised. There was no
one near TO hear any OutCTy from the
deIeESelesg woman. Two lamps burned
dimly when the body was discovered.
The condition Of the body was the
most eloquent argument that Mcpherson
was a raVinE maniac.

Quarrel Followed Remark.

The theory IS that after Dusing left
the Bowers house, Mcpherson auarreIed
with his sister FOR saying he was losing

three finger neil marks were found yes
terday morning. They indicated that
Mrs. Bowers evidently attempted TO

Mcpherson went to the wOOdshed and
procured the axe with which Mrs. Bow
ers had chopped wood for a score Of
years. Il IS believed he entered the
house while she was sitting fin a chair
near her bed making a rag carpet and
dealt her a blow between her eyes.
This blow sent her to the floor and the

then began.

Croker also admits that William j.

SO great is The similarity of the
two men, in his opinion, that he says
he viii hardly know how TO vote

for him, while republicans, too, might
place him in nomination in spite of

that the reason his rich friends hate
Roosevelt is because he has been

JAMES GRIMES, CHARGED
WITH SERIOUS CRIME
IS CAPTURED

Lebanon, O., The Sunday quiet OF
the little village of Harveysburg, in
the northeastern part of this county,
was disturbed by the raiding of IA
angry mob of men and boys armed
with stones and clubs, intent upon the
vengeance of a dastardly crime com
nl1tted by negro. James Grimes,
upon a pretty country maiden
Grimes committed the outrage
some time ago and was indicted two
weeks ago by special session OF
the grand jury. hlt could not BE-
found. This morning he turned up
in Harveysburg with his wife, d
white woman, and the inhabitants
were at once up in arms. Ministers
left their pulpits and Joined in the
crowd that sought out officers that
the negro might be taken care of by
the law. but being unable to find
one, started in search of their prob
able victim themselves.
For hours they ran through the
streets tearing into houses where
they thought Grimes might be har-
bored. into the rural homes they
flew as one man, but increasing at
every step with more men and boys.
Fd,itless in their search they re
turned to the village and started on
another rampage.
In the meantime Marshal Silker,
OF Wilmington, and Deputy Sheriff
Osborn, OF Clinton county, received
word that the man had fled over the
border line and was at the home of a
relative near New Antioch. They
immediately visited the scene, but
were refused entrance 10 the house
and by the trme they had forced their
way the man and his wife had es-
caped through a rear door and start
ed across country.
Pursuit was made over helds and
across swollen streams, the negro be-
ing seen only at intervals when he
would reach high ground. 1t could
be seen that the officers were rapid
w gaining as the man had difficulty
in aiding his wife through mud and
brush.
Finally after about 80 minutes OF
one of the hottest chases ever pulled
"a in the county the officers came
within shouting distance with the ne
GRO. out commando to halt was not
needed. Then Sheriff Osborn began
opening FIRE upon the two. The seq
