H. Burr, of this county. and George
Hazard, of Tacoma, Wash, but we'll
known as the aufhor of "Hazzard's
History of Henry County" happen to

for an extended visit for the benefit
of his wife's health. George Hazard
will be at the democratic convention
in Denver and as only a short dist
iff may go to the convention city.
Hazard has not been here for about
two years, and Sheriff Burr has in his
possession papers that would prove of
interest to Hazard, especially as they
would require him to come back to the
scenes of his boyhood. The papers
are warrants growing out of Haz-
yards methods in selling his history
and in obtaining signatures to various
documents, commonly termed forgery.
Since they have been in the sheriff S
possession Hazard has kept away
from Henry county. There would be
no surprise in this city to see Burr
step from any train with Hazard in
his company.

burglar scare that would have been Sc
rious if it were not for the humor of
the affair. A large portion of the res

search for burglars was instituted.

hours more enjoyably in his presence,

was about the midnight hour when the
attention of the couple was attracted
to a light which was flickering about

was recourse to the telephone.

Upon the slumbers of Mr.. Lamb
burst the buzzing ring of the telephone
bell. 1t never had rung like that be-
fore. and without waiting to don his
street apparel. Mr.. Lamb hastened to
answer. In a voice that shuddered. he
was told burglars were attempting to
gain entrance to his store. The friend
at central kept busy and soon everyone
in town who possessed a telephone,
and was not deaf, was awakened.

and their cohorts. set out for the store.
Bert Lacey. Marshal Price, George
Harris and others from the west ad-
vanced upon the store. Guards were
thrown out in all directions and no av-
enue of escape was left the burglar.
When the advancing hosts assembled
at the store there were no other hu-
mans to be found. Although search
was made, but no jimmy marks nor
foot tracks were to be found Some
body suggested joke and others false
alarm, so the army of home guards
dispersed. The answer to the puzzle
came yesterday. Mrs. Charles Con-

they had heard a commotion among
the chickens the night before and
gone forth with lanterns to ascertain
the cause. They knew naught of the

WAS MUCH EXCITEMENT,

An unexpected free performance
was provided by the John Robinson
circus yesterday afternoon. Two
leopards escaped from their cage and
one made it's way into the main tent
when the circus was in progress.
Considerable excitement followed. A
number of women screamed and left
their seats The employees of the
circus endeavored to recapture the
beasts without creating any disturb
ance and succeeded so well that many
in attendance knew nothing of the
danger to which they were exposed,
while one of the spotted creatures
strolled around beneath the seats in
search of an avenue for escape. One
of the leopards was corraled in a
piece of canvas and the other was las
seed. The regular performances were
up to expectations.
Fair sized crowds attended both
performances. The circus did not
present as many actors as some of the
larger tented attractions.

Indianapolis, July 2.-The indict-

district and one of the most prominent
republicans of Marion county, has
struck terror to those who have been
wondering if the lightning that has
come from the county scan
dals friction would strike them
before the scandal sensation has
cleared away. When Ensley return
ed to the> county some $4,000 on de-
mand, few days prior to his indict-
ment, it was thought that the thing
had blown over and that he would wig
gle out of trouble. But the statement
was made at that time, by Prosecutor
Hooton, that no immunity from pros
ecution had been promised, and the
final blow came when the grand jury
Yesterday returned three indictments
against Ensley. The grand jury had
been tipped off in the same mysterious
manner that all the county fraud in
dictments have been, and Ensley was
enabled to appear at the sheriff's Of
flee and give bond before undergoing
the humiliation of arrest.
There is valuable lesson to many
county treasurers of the state in the
Ensley case. 1t has been the prac-
tice to class all sequestered taxes that
are unearthed and placed on the
books, as delinquent taxes, the treasur-
er retaining 6 per cent for collection,
as the law provides in the case of de-
linuuents. But the law does not class
sequestered taxes as delinquent taxes,

Ensley to do so. This species of

has been going on in many counties OF
the state. it is asserted, and the indict-
ment of Ensley on the charge of en-
bezzlement is an example OF how the
grand jury of Marion county looked at
the practice. Ensley is badly broken
up over the developments, especially
because his wife is seriously ill in
Ohio. In fact, he left her bedside to
beat the deputy sheriffs to the indict-
ment, getting the tip from friends
here. Up to date there has been one
