count! v has been raided, aii'l three
of the t'4"o' iot-l Westmore
lands, were brought hue to-day and
lie in jail ou the charge of vurious
murders. They aro Wilde Westmore
land, John J-liid and Jolin Cagle,broth
er-in law of Westmoreland. A few
lays u) a 1 ' y I'.' years old, ivin
Lin liHiuf) a Sherman came
ii.to the. United States Marshal's of
fice and related the killing of two
travelers by the Westmoreland on
February 15, IS'.hJ, ovr a year ago.
They were robbed of their money
and the murdeicrs compelled the
boy to thrww the bodies into .Salt
Creek, which Hows into the Arkun
s.'S. The boy, with a ioi round
Lis neck was made to swtar never
to reveal the crime, and did not until
in the presence of the I". S. Marshal.
The matter was kept outlet to enable
the authorities to ui'iuehend the
parties, which they did ou Sunday
morning last at their homes at the
luouth of the Cimaiou. surinisiL
thini in their beds.
The creek is too high for dragging
now, but will be searched thorough
ly as soon as low enough to admit.
For years past travellers have been
known to stop at the Westiuoi elands
and have never been seen again. The
bones of three victims were found in
tho woods nearby, pointed out by
Cagle to the Marshal's party, and
near by were found some good cloth
ing, a lady's No shoe, and three
watches, all buried under a foot of
earth. The tumbledown cabin is at
tho foot of a bluff 100 feet high and
behind it were found frames of vi.
lises, piles of clothing and other ar
ticles, probably booty taken from
murdered victims.
It I auie Without a Winning.
Knowille, Ten.1)., June At
Nttiuuanville, Cireen county, Satur
day a cloud burst did great da'inige.
A small creek became a raging river
100 yards wide. The store home,
residence and tho outbuildings of T.
N. King wero swept away; he did
not have time to eTen close his store
doors. An iron safe, weighing 1,500
pounds, was carried one fourth of a
imlo by the force of the water. A
number of other houses were cur
ried away, and all crops along creek
bottom lands destroyed.
The water came down so fast th;it
the people barely had time to llee to
the ridge, and if this had not hern
near there: would have been serious
loss of life. Considerable slock was
drowned.
All About a Horse-tliiet.
Lincoln. Neb., June lti. The
Governor of Nebraska and Governor
of Wyoming are at loggerheads over
a horse thief named Kingen. This
fellow skipped into Wyoming and
stole a valuable horse. A mob fol
followed him orer the line for the
Yuvp6s of lynching hiui, but in
stead took him back to Wyoming,
where he was sentenced to the peni
tentiary. Governor Thayer demand
ed of the Governor of Wyoming that
Kiugvn be immediately returned
IVtvuiing'a Governor sent back a
very emphatic reply in which he flat
ly refused to give up Kingen. Thay
er then declared that he would hate
Kingen released if he had to march
an army of malitia iuto that state.
Thayer is now in Wyoming.
It is declared by the Paris Ap
peal that Johu T. Rogers of Clay
township, sheared twenty-eight
Cotswold and Shropshire sheep this
spring, aud the fleeces weighed 319
pounds, luaking an average of a lit
tle over eleveu pounds, which take
the cake and the whole bakery.

Tiie Prince f Wales a TrinVr.
NfW York Times.
This is not a pleasant thing for
a man to have nu his conscience -ven
thouith it be a ewnseience so
well
narcotized as that of the PriLce of
Wales. lint, apart from that, the I
sj.ectacle of an heir to the throne so j
ad.licted to a low and unintelligent
form of excitement that he carries j
about with him the counters of a
gambling game that he cannot live
without is very serious and discour
aging to the loyal Britons. Some
Methodists in Wales have giveu ex
pression iu resolutions of sorrow
and deprecation to the sentiment
that the testimony in this case must
have inspired the hundreds and
thousands of Englishmen. "I do
not call a gambler a dishonest man,"'
observes Dr. Johnson, '"but I call
lion an unsocial man, an unprofitable
man."' Nothing could bo more un
social or more unprofitable than
what is now shown to be the favor
ite pursuit of tin? Prince of Wales, i
ami when it leads him to coerce
those, about him into risking what
they cannot afford to risk, it is plain
that if not dishonest himself he is
the cause of dishonesty in others.
The same moralist from whom we
have just quoted also remarks that
at 5() it is tim. for a man to bi iu
earnest. ThejPrinee of Wales is in his
oOth year, but he is as far as ever
from being iu earnest. In truth, the
Guelphs have been as frivolous, with
the sole xception of George III.
as the Stuarts whom thev succeeded
without the intelligent brightness
that socially redeemed in part the
political impossibilities of the Stuarts

The Marshall l'rogress says: Mr.
James Branch bought Mr. G. X.
Jackson's little mule, 30 inches high
aud weighing 1G0 pounds. He took
it to kis home near Fairville in the
hack, and will arrive with it here
this evening on the hack. A mule
that travels in a hack is certainly a
curiosity as a first-class passenger.
The Marshall News has discovered
the biggest mule. It says: Marshall
is not only the moit extensive mule
market in the state outside of St.
Louis, but has furnished the largest
representative of the long eared
tribe to be found iu the state, and
possibly in the world. The mule
has been in the possession of Marion
Sparks over three years. When a
sucking colt the animal measured 15
hands aud 1 inch nigh. It is now 4
years oil and measures 20 hands?.
Mr. Sparks this week sold a half in-
