ASBURY GUILTY.;
3YEARS INPR|SON
Grand Jury Indicts Three For
Bigamy-Investigate Har-
din's Charges, Etc.

Circuit court opened on Monday
with the usual attendance of visi-
tors, and lawyers from different Sec
tions of the county.
The Grand Jury was empanneIed
on Monday and gave some of the
poker players, and others who are
helping pay the running expenses of
Pocahontas and Bluefield, the scare
of their lives by asking embarrassing
questions, and scrutinizing closely
every act of the boys which might
justify an Indictment.
One of the pleasing features of the
opening day of court was the alb
sence of the liquor men and the re-
sultant sobriety and order which
prevailed. These vendors of the
neighboring towns had gotten a
wireless that Tazewell people were
unable TO understand why so many
young boys of the town could get
whiskey so easily, and why vir-
tual solicitation OF orders, strictly in
violation Of law, is made upon the
streets OF the town. The Grand Jury
considered the question, and IL was
reported that sufficient evidence had
been secured TO indict, but that the
matter will be hell in allegiance for
n while.
The following indictments were
returned:
James Vandyke for taking money
from Pies Stevens.
Robert Lawson for bigamy. He is
charged with having more wives
than the law allows, having married
M ISIS K RANGES Bu!len at Danley, n.
c., a year or so ago, and only recent
~ taken unto himself a widow lady,
Mrs. Hunt, of Raven. Lawson has
been here in Jail several months.
Floyd Moore, arrested at Rich
lands several weeks ago by Dick
Fisher, will also have To face a
charge OF bigamy. Moore was arrest
ed upon a charge of robbing Timothy
Lester OF large sum of money, but
the evidence against him upon this
charge was not conclusive, but the
records in the clerks office were
sufficient TO indict him for bigamy.
Pat Newman, charged with enter
Ing DR.. James Crockett's residence
in Burke's Garden, and stealing
skins of wild animals.
Thomas Chambers, who went up
on the bond of Elisha Lowe for
loves appearance before the last
term of court, In the sum of $500,
was released from the payment of
the amount by paying the costs of
the continuance OF the cmse TO the
present term OF court and producing
the prisoner. The costs amounted TO
$50. 90.
Chas. Harris, who was arrested at
Pocahontas upon charge of abduc-
tion, was indicted upon charge of
bigamy, the abduction charge being
dismissed.
Keemer Keesee was indicted for
cruelty to animals.

The Big Parade

On Friday afternoon 10000 men,
members of the Sunday Schools Of
the World, gave big demonstration
parade. 1t was wonderful scene
Nothing like il had ever been wit
messed before.
The parade was divided into di-
visions, and these divisions divided
I into states. The states, territories and
foreign possessions OF North Ameri-
ca, were placed together, and the
81 foreign countries together, each
division and state bearing flags and
banners with notices. There were
bands of music, singing and-rain.
The parade marched for more than
two hours, most of the time in IA
drenching rain. Governor Mann and
Lieut.. Governor EIlyson marched at
the head of the Virginia delegates.
Governors OF other states, senators
and congressman were in the parade.
DR.. f. B. Meyer and other notab:es,
among them, Bishop Honda, of
Japan, led the procession, i'm car
riages. The parade marched TO and
around the Capitol, where 5000
women were assem- mbled, from all
over the world, TO witness the Won
derful demonstration. From the be-
ginning, away up at Tenth and G.
streets To and down Pennsylvania
Avenue, and all the long march,
thousands OF people lined the side
walks, and cheered. Such n demon
stration in the interest OF Sunday
schools made an impression upon the
public that will not soon be forgot
ten. Someone remarked that the mill
lineum was not far Off, and would
be hastened if not brought about di-
rectly by the world wide evangelical
tion of the children.
The notices and banners were
spectacular and impressive. One
bore the inscription, 1.-The men of
Texas are For The Man OF Gallilee. 1"
A similar one was borne by the dele
CATION from Pennsylvania. 1.-THE
Saloon is Doomed, was another
Jesus The Light of The World, a"
1.-THE Coming of His Feet" and a
large number of other equally sug-
geStive and impressive, were seen in
the parade. Georgia displayed ban
ner with large whiskey barrel
dressed as man, and big police
man standing by, with the command
printed on his club, "Move On. "
An amusing banner was carried by a
man from Arkansas, Inscribed, "All
the States Lie About Arkansas, "
which caused much merriment and
some criticism. Another suggestive
motto was, "What Does The Devil
Think of This?" Hundreds and
thousands of people of al nationali-
ties saw from this demonstration
what the world thinks of the value
and importane of the children of the
nations of the earth 1t may be true
that "sorrow makes the whole world
akin," but it is true still that the
world is closely knit together by
children
The great parade closed with q
wonderful meeting in Convention
Hall, where number of short but
eloquent speeches were made, among
them, and one of the very best, wa,
Governor Maun's. He was recogniz
ed by the presiding officer and called
out and made great speech.

exception OF one small patch, was

rabbit settin' anywhere in almost
every field. Usually, at this season,
wheat is away up, even heading

this good year, 1910. And the same
things are true between Lynchburg
and Washington. | saw one or two
fields OF corn barely up. Grass and

Willmar, Mimi, Feb. ~
Samuel Kirby, the retired farm
er of Mankato, may never have
read Pickwick Papers or have
heard of Samuel Weller, Sr.
Nevertheless, he seems to have
appropriated for his very own
the injunction 80 oft repeated
by the elder Weller, "Bevare of
vidders."
Not that Samuel mself, who
has now been a widower for
nearly two years, is in any
danger. Not at all. Only his
brother Gustavus of all the
Kirby's, whose farmhouse near
this city gave birth to the re-
cent "Hoax of Kandiyohi," is
menaced.
Still obessed by the idea that
Mrs. Vallie Casey, housekeeper
on the farm Of Gustavus, is
really Mrs. Bella Guinness of
La Porte, Ind, murder farm

arch murderess, she has per.

to this vicinity to spur the Of
6cers to do more sleuthiug.
His letters to the sheriff have
been coming thickand fast and
he has hired q special detective
to shadow the woman and to
look for evidence.

"She is Guinness" says Kirby,
land all the Hoosier detectives
and Chicago newspaper men,
who can be sent to Kandiyohi,
cannot convince me to the con-
trary."
Ball, the Indian detective,
thought he was through with
Samuel Kirby and the Mime
sofa end of the case when he
came here and was brought
face to face with the alleged
Mrs. Guinness. Ball had known
Mrs. Guinness several years and
Mrs. Casey bore no resembl-
ance to her, he said. But the
detective put too low value
on the persistence of the Min
nesota sleuth. Kirby was a

could come to Minnesota if
there seemed to be any good
reason for it. A dispatch from

ficers are thoroughly disgusted
with Kirby's kind of sleuthing

whatever that Mrs. Smith will

and is nasquerading as Mrs.
Casey and is plotting the death:
and robbery of his brother. He
says that Miss McHenry was
never married to Casey.
Kirby is making his moves
with as much secrecy as posi-
BILE. His son at Nankato is not
in his confidence so far as this
case is concerned aud declared
today that his father had been
