FRIENDS FREE A MURDERER.
Kentuckians Rescue from Jail Man Sen
fenced to Be Electrocuted.

Livingston, Va, Oct. 22. Monntaineer
friends Of John Moore, under sentence
TO be electrocuted for the murder OF
Frank Howl descended upon the Nel.
son county jail here at o'clock yes
terday morning, stormed the building
and rescued the prisoner.
At that early hour Of the morning
when the people of the country seat
were asleep, crowd of IS armed men
from the mountain section, where the
crime was committed, proceeded quietly
through the town to the county jail.
Admission was gained to the building
and the guards awed into comparative
non-Tesistence. The cell where Moore
was locked up soon was found and he
was taken out and back to the noun
tains.
II was not until some hours later that
the news spread and soon several deputy
sheriifs were on their way into the
mountains to try to rearrest the muir
derer. 1t is feared bloodshed will re.
suit from any attempt of the author
tiles to recapture the murderer.
Moore was condemned to paw the
death penalty by electrocution at Rich
mond on Nov. 26. He had been con
vcted Of having murdered Frank Howl
in Nelson county last May. Many of
the mountaineers, friends of the con-
demned man, believed him innocent of
the crime.

HER 100000 "BAUBLE."
Mrs. Joel Wouldn't Put Necklace In
Vault--Hosts Sleepless.

Edgewater Park, n. j.. Oct. 22,-Gen.
and Airs. 4, Grubb sighed in relief when
Mrs. John Joel of South Africa left
their palatial mansion and took with
her a necklace valued at more than ST.
100000. This necklace had caused the
Grubbs 10 sleepless nights, because to
Mrs. Joel the "baublep was of so lit
tie intrinsic value she refused to put
il in a safe deposit vault or even to let
her hrother-in-law, Gen. Grubb, notify
the police that it was in the house.
Mrs Joel is the sister OF Mrs. Grtibb
and is the wife Of one of the former
partners of the African diamond king,
Barney Barnato. Her husband is a
trustee in the DE Beers company and
is reported to be worth something more
than Sl00,000,000. When Wolf Joel. a
brother Of John joel, was shot few
years ago, he left mis- brother about $780,
GOO, 600, all Of which Joel turned over to
his wife.
When Mrs. Joel arrived at Edgewater
Park, 10 days ago, she carried in her
jewel case gems to the value Of more
than Sl,50000O, She refused to take
seriously the suggestion OF Mrs. Grubb
that she was in danger of being muir

As a result Cen Grubb, brevet briga.

PROMPT DEALING WITH FOOLISH
BILLS.

The Vermont legislature, and partieu-

delay, a death blow to unreasonable
measures which come before it clamor.
ing for enactment into law There is
no need to be unduly anxious to do this
work; each measure should be given
decent hearing before committees in or
der that its merits may be brought out
to weigh against the demerits But in
so doing the members should not be
guided at all by respect for the feelings
of the introducers of the measures. II
the feelings OF individual members are
to be injured by the defeat OF bills which
will be detrimental to the state, then
the personal element should be sunk
