HeIs Supposed to B^ the Much^Wanted Washington Murderer.
CAPTURED NEAR LOU I.OU
HowHe Played His Little Game^and How tffectually the Men^Rounded Him Up When the^Proper Time Came.
Missoula,Aur. 4 ^ One of the most^Important captures ever made In this^seotlon was effected to-day by Mis^^soula county officers and to-day A. J.^Synies, the Washington murderer. Is^in Jail here with his head swathed in^bandages. This desperate man, for^whose capture and delivery the Wash^^ington authorities have offered $1,500,^was taken at David Marlay'a ranch,^above Lou Lou this forenoon ami^brought here by Sin rift M r Laughl In,^Deputies Curr.tn, Pitchetts and Cor-^bett. and Social Deputy Maclay. Ever^since Constable Lew Conlee was shot^near Ritivllle June 24, Western Mon^^tana has tieen flooded with posters^deaerlblnK Synies. who was supposed^to be the murderer. Saturday David^Maclay saw one of these at Lou Lou^and at once recognized from photo^^graphs and description the man who^had been herding sheep for three^weeks on his ranch and who had given^his name as Frank Davis. He Imme^^diately came to Missoula and told the^sheriff, who appointed him a special^deputy. Arrangement^ were made by^which Maclay was to arrest the man^and bring him In If possible, but at^midnight last night the sheriff iwatvad^a message from Florence giving him^tb^ same Information that Maclay had^Imparted earlier. In consequence the^sheriff and deputies left here early^thl^ morning ami drove to Maclay's^ranch. Symes, alias Davis, was herd^^ing sheep near Timber on Harvey^creek, above the ranch and the plan^was to get him away from Timber^under pretext of cutting out 'some^sheep. This was not successful and^when the sheriff arrived Symes had^the sheep at water a couple of miles^this side of his camp. Maclay once^more told him to drive the sharp in^to an open country that they mlgnt cut^some out. Symes said It was loo hot^to work the sheep, and said he would^do It on a cooler day. He evidently^suspected something, as lie kept his^hand on Ms gun. which was In his belt,^and watched closely. Maclay was un^^armed and alone, save for a boy^named McClaln, who works for him.
Promptaction was necessary and^Maclay and the boy began to talk^sheep with ftymes. Maclay picking up^a stick which he began to whittle. The^boy said something and Byrnes turned^to see what he wanted. Quick as a^flash Maclay hit him on the head with^a cudgel, fellng him to the ground.^When he recovered consciousness he^was In Irons and disarmed. He seemed^to be surprised and asked why he^should De arrested and his brains heat-^en out. The sheriff asked him If his^name were not Symes. This was^promptly denied and the man further^said that he had never been In Wash^^ington. After this he would sav noth^^ing and refused to talk to anyoiie. Ar^^riving at the Jail his wounded head^was dressed by Dr. Fitzgerald and the^man was locked up alone.
Thereseems no douht that he Is the^right man. He answers the descrip^^tion perfectly and one day at Maclav's^ranch In a spirit of bravado he told a^companion that he had killed a sheriff^In Washington. The crime for which^he is wanted Is atrocious. The fHMItta-^ble had arrested Symes and had taken^a 45-callbcr gun from him ami was^leading him away when Symes drew a^SS-callber from Inside his trousers and^killed the officer Instantly. He Med^and for six weeks search has been^prosecuted for hlni. Mr. Maela\ .1^serves great praise for his conduct In^the affair and the sheriff's oOos is re^^ceiving congratulations upon tkt luckv^capture.
Symeshas a beard and mustache^now, having let them grow since he^fled, but his peculiarities 1, ,lVe no^doubt that he Is the right ni.ui.

SPORT AT THE CIRCUS.
I'rop.t-.l to I... on tlie Trunk of an^t-tlepliant.
Severalconstables had a rather un^^comfortable experience with antmils^In Itanium ^ Bailey's menagerie on^Monday night. It arose over an at-^t^-mpt to attach the animals on an or^^der from the court. Now. the court^may have thought It easy enough to^attach the animals, or perhaps may^not have given any particular tnought^to the matter; but when the constables^undertook to cany out the mandates^of the court the actual performance of^the Job was not so easy as it appeared^on paper.
Theattachment was made at the in^^stigation of Iaoils Leon. Mr. Leon al^^lowed the advance agent of the circus^to put a big gaudy poster on the out^^side of his store, portraying the won^^ders of the circus. In consideration^there for be was given numerous passes^to the circus. On Monday night Mr. I^Leon sent his children to the show on^the p*s^cb. When the young people^got there they were not given reserved^seats, as they expected, and thereupon
returnedhome. Mr. Loom vm indig- |^nant and Immediately brought suit^against the circus for $50 damages. An
orderfor attachment was placed in the^hands of several constables and they I^started for the show grounds. The con- I^stables made known their errand and^they were ushered Into the menagerie^tent and told to attach to their heart's !^content. Happy that their reception I^bad l^een so cordial, and expecting an !^easy ta*k. they proceeded with their I^duties and almost the first thing they^came face to face with was an ele- |^phant, He had a big chain about his^neck, his tusks protruded as a sort of^danger sign, and his trunk waved^about rather freely.
1/et'sattach his trunk.^ remarked^one countable. ^It's worth fid, 1 guess.
Allright: hut how will we. get It^^^^ IS the reply.
Tiea rope to that chain on his neck^and fasten the other end to that^Make.
Thispi.m waa agreed upon and the^^^onstables courageously advanced on^mo ^ uuuy, but a sudden uplifting of^the formidable trunk caused a scatter^^ing. After further maneuvering the^i \e,-mors of the law determined to try^aOBSettlflU MsbsT. The giraffe did not^appear to he so crabbed as the ele^^phant, but af ter vainly trying !^^ climb^up high enough on the animal to at^^tack him the party moved on. The sa^^cred cows proved an easy mark. As^they were about to be mercilessly tak^^en Into the p^^ssesslon of the officers^one man noticed the sign, ^Sacred^Cows.
Hoys,them things is sacred.^ said^he. ^We better leave our hands off.
WonderIf It would be wicked to^take them^^ guilelessly asked another.
Ofcourse It would. We'd all g i^to^.^ but the roar of the lion drowned^nut the remainder of the remark.
Willilonging eyes the constables^looked on the six months' old cubs of a^tigress. The little things were cute,^but the mother was not a hit that way^and seemed Just In a mood to take In^a constable at every gulp. Tha polar^bear smiled a beguiling smile but could^n d entice a constable w ithin the grasp^ul those loving rib-crushing arms.
Bythis time the report had gone^abroad that the constables were trying^to o. p in the menagerie. The mana^^gers anil employes arera gathering^about the constables, and were rather^amused at their efforts to attach some^^thing. When a aropoaltkm for settle^^ment was made the constables were
ll all opposed to It. The circus

Thephysicians attached to the slate^hospital at Blossburg, Pa., are trying^to Solve tha mystery surrounding pe^^culiar cases of uppareni poisoning that^have sett brought to their attention.^A f.-w .lays ago Jacob Ityniska of^Blossburg died presumably from the^effects of a bite from some Insect, as he

In^the case of Ityniska the patient's head^^welled lo enormous proportions, and^his death was caused by suffocation,^occasioned by the terrible swelling.
Lastweek Henry Dyke of Itlchmond^was taken to the stale hospital suffer^^ing from the effects of a poisonous bite^on the lop of his bald head. His eyes^were swollen shut, his head wi's great^^ly swollen, and it was considered a^lang root case, although he n w seems^m be improving.

MOREABOUT THE DAM PLAN
ItsConstruction Would Moan Much^to Citlzena as Well as to tho^Company - People In Fourth^Ward Wldo Awake.
Missoula,Aug. 4.^There la much dis^^appointment expressed here that the
arrangementof the preliminaries for^the construction of the power dam can^^not be more speedily made, in order^that the work of constructing It may^I*, gin Immediately. It Is generally un^^derstood that the question which is^blocking the completion of the deal Is^a minor one and it seems foolish that^a trivial i^oint should be allowed to In^^terfere with the perfection of a scheme^which would no materially benefit both^the Oeneral Electric company and the^city, the two parties involved. That^tho electric company would be benefited^there Is no doubt. Where the city will^be any better off, Is a point which has^been persistently raised by the oppon^^ents of the plan. The answer ought to^he clear to a man who will look at It^honestly. The cost of municipal and^private lighting will bo greatly lessen^^ed. The dam will make possible the^irrigation of the plain south of the^city^something that has long been^sought for, and has always been staled^as a plan which would add materially^to the prosperity of the city. With this^large tract under cultivation, Missoula^could supply the entire state with^fresh vegetables and a cannery could^secure an unlimited quantity of raw^material. This single benetlt ought to^enlist general support for the dam. To^allow this to slip away now, would be^a grave misitake.
Missoula,seems to have fastened up^^on bar a spirit of foolish and prejudiced^contention which acts as a hoodoo of^the worst kind. No question can arise^that is not immediately made the excuse^for a protracted tirade of abuse. After^a tittle, the question at issue is lost^sight of but the maledictions continue.^Because at man favors the dam proposi^^tion, he is told that he ^has been^whipped Into line.^ If he opposes the^scheme, he is proclaimed as an ^an^^archist.^ If he Is a friend of the tire^department, he Is ^in the ring.^ If he^attacks the fire department, he Is^branded as ^an enemy to the city.^ If^he upholds the poundmaster, he Is^charged with being ^In on the rake-^off.^ If he opposes the strict enforce^^ment of trp^ pound law, he is told that^he Is not lit to live In a city, anyway.^It makes no difference what the Issue^may be, the contending elements are^unwilling to admit that either can have^an honest motive. If there could be^some time taken for investigation and^consideration, much of this absurd^chewing of the rag would be avoided.^But nobody can find time to inquire^Into a question.
ChiefMentrum of the fire depart^^ment the other night set a good ex^^ample In regard to this exchange of^abuse. He refused to swap. He re^^ceived the abuse quietly but, when In^^vited to respond, declined. He was^present at the open air meting In the^Fourth ward by request. He heard^himself roasted to a finish. When^asked to reply he said that his place of^bulsness was at the city hall and there^he would be perfectly willing to make^clear any point upon which Informa^^tion was sought. The man who did^the roasting called at the fire house^soon after and the points raised were^made plain. The Investigator was^very frank and admitted that he had^been grossly misinformed and, If he^had known the truth of the matter his^roast would not have been delivered.^This demonstrates the proposition^If^questions are honestly considered there^Is usually no cause for abuse.
Q E. D.
Thenew expression, ^knocker,^ Is^one of the most expressive terms that^has been coined In a long time. The^knocker Is something after the order^of the croaker but he goes farther. He^not only talks, he acts and the course^of his action Is not pleasing to con^^template. The knocker Is a misan^^thrope, a cynic ami an Iconclast, all^oiled Into one. He Is not a particular^^ly desirable cltlien for any community.^A local genius contributes the follow^^ing:
THEKXOCKEIt.^O. a rare old guy Is the knocker brave.^He bis neither wit nor cash.^He fomlnst all propositions^And bis htanmar goes^smash, smash.^Knocking he goes from morn to night,^No matter what he hits,^if nny man has a show to win,^He says ^We ll give him fits.
Theresidents of the school section^will probably derive some benefit from^the agitation which was started^against the tire department. While the^kick against Chief Mentrum has lost^its force now that matters are more^clearly Understood, the people In the^Fourth ward have become aroused to^such a pitch that they are determined^to get something. The result will prob^^ably be that some arrangem-tit will^be made that will give the ward im^^proved tire protection and. If the price^of electric lights Is reduced, better il^^lumination. If this result Is attained^the fuss that has been stirred up will^bring some beiiellt anyway.
CUKED BY ELECTIRCITY.
SingularPhenomenon Noted in the i'nurse
ofit ser.en of Kxpertmcnt*^From the t'lev ^ a id bsttsf.
Inone of the shipyards of Cleveland^there Is a young man who demonstrat^^ed to some people of the Bocky Moun^^tain country the great Influence of the^mind over the body. In their ca.e this^Influence was sulllcienl to cure various^diseases, until they discovered the^hoax, and then a relapse came to som-^who bad not as yet thoroughly recov^^ered.
Theyoung man and his companions^were not posing as priests of any pe^^culiar faith, but were simply looking^out for the dollars that might come^from their patients, and the cures were^In no wise credited to faith, but to the^natural properties of an ^electric^spring.^ This they claimed to have^discovered under the bluff at Pike's^Peak, and over the water they built a^fancy sanitarium. Soon people came^from far and near, and not only came,^but were cured. From various dis^^eases the patients obtained relief, and^the sufferers from rheumatism were^numerous, some being terribly crip^^pled.
Thephenomena of the spring were^remarkable and unique. Those who^bathed In Its waters felt pleasing cur^^rents of the subtile energy coursing^through tbelr anatomy; and when a^cup (which was chained) was touched^to Us surface a shock was felt by the
armwhich held the cup. JIarveloua^success came to The sanitarium and^wealth was rapidly coming to the^young men during the several months^that the curs was In operation, until^one day a party of electricians visited^the place and discovered the secret of^the spring's peculiar action. Thereupon,^fearing the wrath of the people, the^young men fled, leaving everything be^^hind.
Thewaiting ele^ triclana, strolling^over the mountain, had found wires,^and these were traced Into the spring.^Beneath tha rocky bottom of the basin^there was a net work of the conduc^^tors. The secret of the shock obtained^at the drinking place was found to He^In the fact that the water was con^^nected with a wire, and when the cup^ton. bed the surfa u a circuit was^formed. The discovery of the fraud^destroyed, in many cases, all the^good that had been done by the treat^^ment.

Thisis a tale of chief Badenoch and^the bloomer girl.
Thebig superintendent of bluecoats^made his first appearance as the cham^^pion of the new ^ eiian Friday night^before a large audi' net of enthusiastic^west slders. At the sama time the chief^demonstrated to Ins satisfaction of^everybody present that he proposes to^see that the morals of Chicago's Occi^^dent are regulated, II' he haa to do the^regulating hlmseir.
Andthis Is the way It happened.
Likeevery Scotchman, the chief has^a vi ry soft spot In his heart for music.^^Auld Lang Syne^ and ^Ilonnie, Sweet^Bessie, the Maid of Dundee^ have been^known to move him to eloquence, and^heconfesses a decided weakness for the^^Washington Post march and the^^Passing Show Patrol.^ As the latter^appealed to his professional, as well as^to his musical predlllcilons, It may be^said it was of all airs of similar char^^acter most favored by him. It so^turned out that there was a concert at^liarlield park Friday night, and one of^the most conspicuous numbers on the^programme was He ^Passing Show^Patrol.^ Had not these facts been co^^incidental this story might never have^been written. Of course Chief Baden^^och went to the concert and heard the^patrol, and formed one of a number of^admirers who applauded until the^band played Mr. I aiglander's master^^piece all over agam. but It was after^the conceit was ended and the head of^the police was on hU way home that^the Incident occurr. d which will place^his name in the list of chivalry.
Thescene was a West Madison^street car. and the other characters,^besides the hero, four very much ine^^briated young men and sundry pretty^and badly frightened young women;^also two young persons In bloomers,^who, from their appearance, might^have belonged to a third sex, but were^really new women of ihe most ap^^proved type, such as would have done^the heart of Elizabeth Cady Stanton^good to look upon.
Theyoung men amused themselves^by the diverting exercise of insulting^women. All the pretty girls on the car^who were sans escories came In for a^share of their unsolicited admiration,^and most of them didn't like It a bit.^All of which caused the big chief to^glower and stroke his goatee Im^^patiently. Onto or twice he remon^^strated with the quartet of sports, but^he might as well have talked to the^wind. Finally, when the car had^reached a point 1 the vicinity of Ro-^bey street, the young bloods espied two^emancipated won: ;ii on the sidewalk.^Here was an opportunity for some fun^of which they Wi re not slow to avail^themselves. Although the wearers of^the divided garments were very man^^nish In looks, at heart they were still^Just women^Just the same kind that^decline to admire mice, and burst into^tears without any apparent provoca^^tion. So, following the Impulse of^women of the olden type, they^screamed and ran into a doorway.^This was too much for Chief Badenoch,^who had already shown remarkable^patience.
You'vegot to atop that sort of busi^^ness right here'.^ he shouted.
Youshut up, you big stiff,^ re^^marked one of the youths.
Thechief replied by a blow that^sent the youth staggering across the^car. Great excitement followed. The^other three young men started to the^rescue of their companion, and the de^^fender of the new woman might have^got the worst of It had he not chosen^to reveal his identity.
Theyoung men were overcome with^amazement and the passengers with^amusement. The former expected to^be dragged to the police station at once^and placed in some disagreeable sort^of durance, but they were destined to^another surprise. The car had by this^time reached ElizabeUi street and the^chief alighted and proceeded to his^home on Itamlolph street without at^^tempting to a.lminister further punish^^ment to the offenders.

theseI see the venerable form of that^grand old church of Rome, pointing^them out with pride to the world and^saying emphatically: ^Behold, iny chil^^dren, In which I am well pleased.^ And^now let us come nearer home, 1st us^spiak uf our own fair America, whose^starry flag fluttering to the gentle^breezes proclaims to all the workl that^here dwells a race of freemen, sons of^glorious liberty. What relation does^the Catholic church bear to this great^country of ours^ Here again let his^^tory speak.
Scarcelyhad this country been dis^^covered but already It became the^refuge of the oppressed. Thousands^upon thousands left the shores of Eng^^land and Ireland fleeing from the de^^mon of religious persecution. But.^strange to say. no sooner were these^men landed In America than they^transplanted to its shores the selfsame^system of bloody persecution from^whldh they had fled, making laws to^persecute everyone who disagreed with^them. It was at this time, In 1634,^that the Catholic Lord Baltimore es^^tablished a Catholic colony In Mary^^land, raising there the standard, not^only of civil, but also of religious lib^^erty and proclaiming to all the world^as the fundamental law of this Catho^^lic colony that here at least no one^should be molested for daring to wor^^ship his God according to the dictates^of his conscience. On all sides civil^religious persecution and Intolerance^were the order of the day. England,^greedy England, added burden upon^burden, tax upon tax, tyranny upon^tyranny on the young colonies, until^America rose up In arms and said:^'No more tyranny, we must have our^own land for ourselves, we shall, we^will, we must be free and Independent.^^Ah, that was a glorious first Fourth of^July In the year 1776. Brave men, aye,^heroes were they who gathered In^Faneull hall and put their names to^that glorious and Immortal document,^the Declaration of Independence. There^were Catholics among those heroes.^There was one especially, who deserves^special mention, who, when even Ben^^jamin Franklin began to fear and said^the sun of liberty Is set,^ boldly re^^plied: ^Well, then, we'll light the torch^of liberty;^ one who not only put his^name to that document, but threw mil^^lions Into the scale as well. That man,^the Intimate friend of our Immortal^George Washington, was Charles Car^^rol of Carrolton, and when that mem^^orable struggle for liberty begaln In^earnest, the Catholics were ever found^at the post of duty and of patriotism.^At the most critical moment, and In^the darkest hour of that heroic con^^flict, the pope of Rome himself, recog^^nizing the Justice of our cause, came to^our aid. Washington lay In winter^quarters in Valley Forge. His men^were encamped in cold, comfortless^huts, many having nothing but the^snow for a pillow and the starry^heavens above for cover. Barefooted^they left tHeir tracks in blood on the^frozen ground. Food was scarce, many^were deserting and the cause of liberty^seemed doomed. Old Ben Franklin was^at this time at the court of France.^Fruitless had been his efforts thus far^to enlist French sympathy in our be^^half. One day, dejected and broken in^spirit, he sat brooding in the ante^chamber of the king, when he felt a^hand upon his shoulder, and looking^about him, he found himself face to^face with the nuncio of the pope, who,^In gladsome words, communicated to^him that he was the bearer of a letter^from the pope to the king of France^urging upon htm to come to our aid.^That letter decided the hesitating mon^^arch. France sent her soldiers, sent her^fleet, sent De Kalb, her Count D'Es-^talng, her Count De Orasse. her Roch-^ambeau, her Lafayette; and old Ben^Franklin, gratefully pressing the^hands of the papal envoy, uttered these^memorable words: ^America will never^forget the pope.^ 'Twas then that^Catholic Poland sent us her Pulaski^and Kosclnsko, Catholic Spain her^money and provisions and Catholic Ire^^land furnished us her heroes, whose^name is ^legion.^ It Is not astonish^^ing then that Washington himself ad^^dressed these solemn words to the^Catholic citizens of this country:^^America,^ said he, ^will never forget^the patriotic part which the Catholics^took in the accomplishment of our^revolution and the establishment of^our government, or the Important as^^sistance the struggling colonies re^^ceived from Catholic France.^ And^when our land was threatened with^disruption, when Lincoln's call went^through the land for patriots, what^was the response of the Catholics^ Oo^to the Catholic cemeteries of thy* coun^^try and on their white crosses you will^read the names of several Shields, of^Meagher, Mulligan, Cleburne.

Phil Sheridan, Will^^iam Sherman and thousands of others^whose very ashes give the lie to those^who would accuse the Catholic church^of being an enemy to our Institutions^which Catholic blood had helped to^build, whloh Catholic blood had helped^to cement. Ye battlefields of this land^of freedom, stained with tiie blood of^thousands of Catholic soldiers, pat^^riots, attest It that these heroes fought^better because of their Catholic faith^and the Catholic principles Instilled^Into their hearts by the ever loyal and^Immortal ohurch. The church an enemy^of civil liberty, the church a menace to^our glorious Institutions! Eternal^shame on the man whose lying Hps^give utterance to this historic cal^^umny.
Thereverend lecturer closed by mak^^ing a strong appeal to non-Catholics^earnestly and honestly to consider tho^facts he had put forward and to Catho^^lics to lead honest, manful, sober and^patriotic lives as becomes true AraerU^can citizens. He gave expression to^his ardent longing for the cessation of^religious animosities and the dwelling^of all In peace beneath the folds of^the glorious stars and stripes.
