SPRINGTOKN BANK
 ROBBERS JET 3 YEARS.

Joe Wrenn and Harry Black, charged with attempting to rob the bank of SpringtoWn March Doth. were sentenced to three years in the penitentiary by Judge Naples. Wrenn stood trial and the case came up Saturday. The jury found him guilty of burglary and the sentence was fixed at three years. When Blacks case was called Monday he said that had no defense to offer and that he would plead guilty. And he also got three year dose.
 The evidence against the men was very largely circumstantial.
 Capt. Baldwin, Marshal Hill and other Siloam Springs citi- zens identified them as having hung around that place several days previous to the Springtown robbery, and they were also identified as the men who had bought miners candles there, pieces of which were found in the bank. A daughter of J. w. Mitchell, living quite near Springtown, identified Wren as having begged a luncE at their house tile day previous to the robbery. Perhaps we should say attempted robbery for the robbers secured nothing from the bank, one of the robbers being killed by the premature explosion of the nitro-glycerine and the others fleeing when the noise of the explosion aroused the citl- zens of Springtown. Several parties who had been notified of the blowing of the safe and who were on their way to town to join the posse, met two men and although 1t was too dark to posi- lively identify them they swore that the two prisoners answered their general description. Wrenn and Black were arrested two days later at Neosho although 1t was a month or two before they were brought back to this county. Neither ot the men were put on the witness stand.-Rogers Dem- OGrat.

CTS, who forthwith sent her home, her ears tingling, her proud heart breaking, with the cruelty told story of her mothers dis grace. Back in the old stone house, with it's stores of costly liquors, its extensive wine cellars, it's utter freedom from restraint, she grew reckless, careless, in- different The appetite which consumed her grew with indul- genee; and when she came to us she seemed a creature lost beyond the power of redemption. Even now, l do not like to speak or think of the terrible time that followed. Her beauty, her deli cacy and gentle breeding, but served to make more hideous by contrast the petty meanness, the absolute dishonesty and trickery to which she descended in her ef- forts to indulge her destroying passion. Confinement and coer- cion seemed to madden her. Twice We found her at death $ door; once from drinking a bottle of toilet scent, and agaln from swallowing an inordinate quanti- ty of some fiery essence, pepper mint, l think.
 At last, after repeated disap- pointments, watchfulness and loving care seemed to work out their own reward, and she became to certain extent interested in her own reformation.

 Never, answered my mother firmly. "She is a child, poor unfortunate child, who can and must be saved. Don't talk to me of an inherited curse; don't believe in any such monstrous doctrine. Let me have this girl; let me guard, guide and help her. l will keep your secret. Surely 1t is as safe in my heart as in a mad-house."
 1 do not remember what more my mother said, but l know that as usual she had her way. At first the old Squire was ineXor- able. but gradually he weakened, and at last consented to change that gave into mothers hands burden that she afterward found almost too grieyous to be borne.
 That night poor Dorothy was carried in an Insensible condition to our home. The next morning she was nearly frantic with shame and grief. We were sorry for her, all of us. Mother, who before had held for her but scant liking, was especially pitiful and tender. She was the only one who never despaired in the ter rible weeks that followed, and she never repented her bargain.
 Gradually We learned the whole of the girls sad story. The curse was indeed hereditary. The Huntresses were race of drunk ards. who in earlier times follow ed the customs of their day, after a gentlemanly fashion. It was only in this later generation that women and men alike lad piuns- ed into disgraceful eXeesses. Dorothy's mother, left young widow, had made herself so no- torious as to render confinement necessary. Inebriate asylums being unknown in her day, a mad-house hid her and her in- firinity alike from the light of day. Dorothy, tossed about from one unwilling relative to another, lived for years in ignorance of her mothers disgrace and her own danger. It was upon the oc-

When we opened the outer door, Dorothy's shrieks fell upon our ears; and to my dying day l shall never forget the sight that greeted our eyes when We enter ed her room. She lay upon the floor quite exhausted, with streaming hair and disordered garments, still gasping and screaming, but motionless. Be- side her sat her grandfather. his hard, old face white and pitiless. Above her knelt Nose, all the ugly brutality of his nature shin
