pany, was t n ered and robbed of fSOO in
oicnev, and valuables to the amount of
two or three hundred dollars more. It
will also be remembered that pub
lished a statement made by one of tbe
burglars, afterward arrested, bow he
waa robbed by nno of bis " pals." and left
penniless. The case waa put in the hands
of detective McCune and Connell, who
have since pursued it moat iiideiatteably.
Dy-before-yesterday they learnno that
the robbers wore In the city, having been
drawn hither, like the balance of the
crowd of thieves and swell-mob now in
town, by the chance of plunder during
tbe interregnum pending tlie installation
of the new police. They immediately set
their lines for them, and succeeded iu ar
resting tbem in Britton's saloon, a cellar
on Front Ko w, near Jefferson street, do ring
Monday evening. They proved to be the
notorious Tom Wilson, aliat Smith, alias
English Tom, and Ben Sipling.
They were taken to lhe Adam9 street
station and locked up. We are informed
by delective McCune that orders were
given lo have them placed in separate
cells; but instead of this, they were put
in a notoriously insecure room al the head
ol the stairs together.
Yesterdav morning when they were
wanted tbey were not to be fouud.
An examination of the premises showed
that they had made their escape by pry
ing off the boards, secure." nailed and
bolted over tbe transom, and forcing the
bars of the iron door leading into the b ick
yard of tbe stationbouse, (which is cov
ered, and is simply a room without i
floor). Thev then leaped from the bead
of the stairs (leading from this door to the
ground) on to the lop of tne water-closets,
over which thev walked to tne rear wan.
which is of brick and eighteen inches
thick. This they dug through, and crawl
ing out of the hole dropped to the ground
in the rear of the building.
After a careful examination of the
grounds we assert, most emphatically.
that the escatie could not possiulv have
occurred without the connivance und aid
of some one or more of the police force on
guard at the time. The thing is an abso
lute impossibility, audshouia Oeinslaniiv
investigated.
The boards fastened overtho transom.
inside the building, could not have been
removed without the aid of pow
erful tools, and the process of mov
ing them must have made considera
ble noise. Not only that, but from the
manner in which they were fastened on,
they would have to be worked at from
6o(A sides. The prisoners eou Id only get
at one side who took off the outtide board t
It is not likely that any pals of these
men would dig through the back wall and
break into the statiouhouse to get them
out and if they did, the work of culling
a hole through a brick-and-a-half wall
must have occupied some hours, and
made a great deal of noise.
Again, the boards that were forced off
the transom were nowhere to be found
yeterday morning. Js H likely that the
escaping burglars would trouble them
selves to lug off two heavy pine boards,
each four feet long by twelve inches
broad, and two thick? It i suggested by
tho detectives that they were burned in
tbe stove in the oEBoe. This is the only
reasonable supposition in explanation Ot
tbe matter.
Meanwhile, detectives Connell and
McCune, who have spent so much time
and labor iu running tueaa rascals to
earth, are much chaKriued and nettled at
this affair, and are determined to sift it to
the bottom.
While we wish to no do man an Injury,
and would suspect no man vrongiully,
we would still ask Chief O'Donnell to or
der a rigid examination tatt this affair.
Ii is the universal opinion expressed by
every one with whom we conversed yes
terday, that the whole affair was planned
and executed iu the stationhousb.
GONE UP.
. Combs. Jr., Plays the Confidence Game.
He is Caught and Sent to Jail.
M. Combs, Jr., has come to grief. A
day or two ago Mr. Combs went to the
barroom of Mr. Capdeville, on the corner
of Beal and Second streets, and drank
Mr. C.'e whisky to the extent of one dol
lar and fifteen oen Is worth. To pay for
this, he presented a check on the Citizens
liank for tl5, remarking that it was after
banking hours, and be would like a little
chance. Mr. Capdevllle gave him the
chanee and Combs departed, but the next
morning on presenting the check at tbe
bank it was not honored Mr. Combs hav
ing forgotten tbe little formality of de
positing funds there to meet It.
Capdevllle went immediately to 'Squire
Gridath's otfloe, and got out a warrant for
Combs on charge of "obtaining money
under false pretenses," but the latter
beard of the warrant berbre it was served,
and hurried down to him and paid the
money, explaining the circumstance of
the protest by saying that be had bor
rowed the check from some one, and
having forgotten to look to see what bank
it was on before issuing it. had given it on
tbe wrong bank. Mr. Capdevilla accepted
the apology and withdrew the suit.
Combs, however, only stepped out of
one scrape into another. Yesterday a Mr.
Ot, E. Bateman, an ex-Federal soldier from
Paducah, Ky., who three years ago had
left his clnioxs for bounty and pay with
him to coll e?t, came to the city lo look
after his money. On calling and asking
for the sum due him. Combs replied that
it had not yet been collected, and pnt
Bateman off with some specious excuse,
which satisfied him.
As Bateman was about leaving the
office. Combs asked him to lend him $50
on a check on the Citizens Bank, telling
nun that ne could casn tne same as bo
went down to the steamer, on which he
was about to return to Paducah. Mr.
Bateman, without hesitation, advanced
the sum required and took the check. On
calling at the bank, some hours afterward,
he was informed that Mr. Combs had
money there, but had instructed tbem
not to pay that particular check, as " tbe
consideration for which it had been given
had failed I"
Mr. Bateman on hearing this returned
to the office to hunt Combs and get an ex
planation, but did not find him. Learn
ing of the recent trick to Capdeville, he
went to 'Squire Millard's and got out a
warrant tor couiD s arrest on tne same old
charge of "obtaining money u nder false
pretenses." The gay Lothario was im
mediately arrested, and on trial was sent
to the Criminal Court undertwo thousand
dollars bail. Visits to the various scalla
wags and others of his acquaintance
around town, failed to find the requisite
bondmen, and after trying in vain to
bribe Mr. Arata (the officer in charge of
him) to let him stay in his own room last
night, Combs was obliged to go to Jail.
On arriving at the gate of tuts institu
tion to which he has helped to oousign
numerous parties, and of which, if public
opinion be any criterion, he ought long
since to have been an inmate, he set up a
snivel about being the first of the Combs
family ever Jugged, and acted as if he
wanted to break and run. Mr. Arata
soon convinced him that such an attempt
would not ne r.oaitcv. auu ne wa in
duced, though reluctantly, to enter those
uark and gloomy pona's.
His name was registered and he was
about being escorted to his quarters when
he made a holt for the irate, qui oul.t not
get out, being brought back and consigned
to close quarters. CM rruMic. Some of
the "checks" that he lavi.-hed on certain
individuals (we won't say of which sex)
last winter would n ' doub: be very ac
ceptable at present.
PERSONAL.
MURDER IN TIPTON.
Jno. L. Ralph Shot by Unknown Assassins.
On Mqpday night last Jno. L. Ralph, a
highly respected farmer and citizen ol
Tipton county.was murdered by unknown
assassins. The Tipton Recor or Friday
gives a leugthy account or the affair,
from which we make the following ex
tract: "It seems, from wlutt we can
gather, that Mr. Kilpli was shot while at
tending lo some clock in the yard, and no
ono was seen to do the deed. The very
natural qneslion that suggests Itself to the
mind is, who did the shooting? Tha
question may be answered, shrouded
although the murder seems to be in mys
tery, to answer it we win go back
little: For the past year or so many of
our readers will remember our articles on
the band of horse thieves and counter
feiters that have held a high carnival of
crime lu this and the river b"ll of e un
ties during the time mentioned. Some of
this clan, Bill Siallious, Tom Clem
and perhaps others, stole a very valuable
mule from Mr. Kalph last winter; he ana
moat vigilant in his search for the thieves,
never resting night or day until be found
tbem, spending in tbe meantime some
thousand or fifteen hundred dollars lu
searching for ihetn, and he succeeded in
having ono of their number arrested and
brought to Justice. The riugloadnr, Tom
Clements, than whom there lives no
greater scamp, was tried ai tha last term
of the Circuit Court, and although there
were plenty of willing witnesses to prove
an alibi, he was convicted aud sentup for
tun years; ha appealed to the Supreme
Court, and before ho was sent to Browns
ville, through the negligence of officials,
made bis escape, with other prisoners who
were confined with him, among them one
J. C. Bradford, who also belonged to tbe
same clan. Mm the escape of these
prisoners Mr. Kalph has been in constant
dread of having his life taken, and came
to see us sometime since about certain
threats that had come to his ears. And
although it was reported by the friends ol
Clements that he had left the Slate, yet
we have it from good authority that he
has never for any length of time been
absent frnnrthe county, but that be and
some of bis party have been harbored by
friends living below Randolph, and that
he and some of his men have been in the
habit of crossing the river at Island 37
continually."

The Charleston Tallahatchian of last
Saturday gives lhe following biography
of Carpenier an Individual well known
in our midst. Tbe account is profusely
illustrated with cuts, and is a pictorial
oddity. The words in italics were thus
hieroglyplil'-ally represented:
Our citizenB have recently been
troubled with documents from one who
pretends to be Aasistant Assessor of the
Unl'.ed States Internal Kevenu". and
whose name is iudica'ive of the oilling of
a man who uses carpenters' tools to such
an exteut, mat ai ine solicitation or his
many inquiring friends, we have con
cluded to publish a brief biography of the
gentleman, handsomely illustrated. Of
his birlh and parentage but little is
known. But it bas been ascertained that
be began life considerably farther nor'b
as a stable boy. and afterward rose to the
business of shoeing mules. From this
time he progressed with such rapidity
lhat he soon got to be a doctor, graduat
ing at some school secluded enongh to
make study easy. He then settietl in
Washington county, Mississippi, and be
gan practice. At the begiuuiug of the
war, though intensely Union in senti
ment, when it came to being an infantry
or cavalry soldier In defense of the "old
flag." tbe doctor couldn't see it, but fol
lowed the army and took a jaorfar in his.
At the close of the war h settled in
Memphis, where he borrowed two thou
sand dollars from a respectable yonng
lady, destroyed her happiness "under
promise ot marriage, and caused hr to
become an inmateof the lunatic asylum,
where she has si nee died. Afterward he
came back to this State, assumed the role
of Revenue Assessor, was appointei be
Ati.es Probate Judge, member Board f
Police, Registrar, and several other
things We have not space to give a min
ute aocount of his conduct while here;
suffice it tn say lhat he excelled in super
intending tbe issuance of county war
rants, held fast to all that he got hold of,
sampled the contents of a wbiskv barrel
with unexampled dexterity, and in all
things played a bully Aasid. When he
c-included to depart, he did not wait for
the stage coach, but went off in the night,
leaving the proprietor of ihe hoUl, at
which bo hoarded, and his washwoman,
in the lurch. He is now in Grenada, anil
we advise our friends over there to icatrA
him. as he still holds a sticky hand.

'In " A Book about Words." by O. F.
Graham, tbe author gives an explanation
of the phrase, " nine tailors make a man."
In the olden time the strokes of the pass
ing bell were called "tellers," and as
nine such strokes Indicated tbe death of a
man, while three nunounced that of a
child, and six that of a woman, the words
nine tellers " were easily perverted into
nine tailors.
To-morrow will decid the fate of
many an aspiring politician, who thinks
that he alone can save tbe county from
going to ruin. Few will be bold enough
to run against the nominations ot the
Convention, aud as there are now at leas:
an average of six candidates for every va
cant office, there will be much disappoint
ment and dissa'. is faction wi:b the Con
vention. Squally times may therefore ba
expected.
By a reference to onr advertising ool
nmns it will be seen that tbe Memphis
Immigration Association has at last got to
work, and received their first installment
of Scandinavian laborers yesterday. The
lot numbers only thirty-nine, but s hun
dred and fifty more are on their way all
hearty, hale looking fellows, and Just the
sort of men we want. Messrs. Allen
Brothers, proprietors of the Commercial
Hotel, are the agents of the Association,
and will receive orders for labor in any
amount, call on them at once.
It is said by those aequsinted with the
trade, that there less lumber sold in
Memphis than in any other city of Its siz
in the United Stales. The reasons for ibis
are not very clear, but we suppose tbe
"fire laws." which forbid the building of
wooden buildings within certain limits
are the main eiuse. On th whole, how
ever, while this prohibition results disas
trously to lumber meichan's, we think
that It is to the general good of the com
munity. There are fewer disastrous fires
here than in any city of its size in the
country.
Among the candidates who will come
before the Convention to-morrow for ihe
office of Clerk of the Circuit Court is
Col. M. D. L Stewart, the present in
cumbent. While we are not in favor of
trying: to forestall publio opinion, or to
Influence the Convention, we cannot bat
express our sincere hope that Col Stew
art will be renominated for the position
which he has so long held with credit to
himself, and honor an I profit to lhe com
munity in general. His claims on the
party are too well known to need to be
called to tbe mind of the Convention.
He has been the " wheel horse " of the
Democracy of Shelby county, giving his
time and his unney to disenthrall us.
