the operations of the small bands form
part of well-defined plan of the rebel
leaders to keep the outlying federal
troops occupied. so that the rebels Will
not be interrupted in their march from
the north.
1T is understood that the rebel lead

Honorable Service, Admits
Theft of $13.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 13.-After
serving twenty-four years in the railway
mail service without blemish on his
record, Arch B. Terrell fifty-three years
old. confessed to secret service officers
in the Jail here last night that he had
stolen total of $13 from registered let
tiers to buy Christmas presents and medi-
cine for his son, who has tuberculosis.
Terrell was arrested yesterday at
Bloomfield, Ky, where he lives, just as
he ended his run and was preparing to
go home. and admitted his guilt when
confronted with the fact that he had
fallen into a trap by taking marked
bill from a registered letter.

Their Tears Overcame Him.

He was brought here and placed in Jail.
He told the officers that his sons illness
had put him to great expense. Then his
daughter became seriously ill and he was
compelled to tell the children they would
receive no Christmas presents. They
cried and he couldn't bear it. So he took
81 from a letter and bought them pres
entS.
Another time, later. he took 81 from a
letter to purchase medicine and then he
made the fatal error of picking out the
registered letter containing the marked
bill.
