him to enter the yard. Not long af
ter little Lizzie Yates, 5 year old.
came ruuniug to the house, shriek
iug in agony and blood streaming
fiotu her person. Shw had been bru
tally ravished by the negro. His dis
cription was soon iu the hands of
the police and he was captured
Thursday hiding iu a hay mow not
far from the scene of his crime.
Hia identification was complete and
he was held without bail to await

TO STOP PENSION' GRABBING-
An Organization it Soldier tor That
PurM in Washington.
Wafebington, D. C, October S.
The society ef Loyal Volunteers has
been organized m Washington. It
in not the intention of the organiza
tion to conflict with any other. The
founders are Grand Army men who
believe that the time has come for
o. !' , nt'tion xgainst the dishon
oiabU- f :itut of the pension busi
ness. The movement, as'setfoitb
in the uioh- of the organization
'is pin el v pitlnotic and philanthro
pic. Hud in opposed to one of the
best organized, well managed and
wealthy syndicates of money makers
in the country the pension attor
neys. One of the objects of the society
is te destroy the pension attorney's
business. If the people do not now
rally to the support of this effort of
the old soldiers to relieve their hon
or from the mercenary stain that is
being put on them by the sophistries
and industries of the pension attor
neys they should hereafter pay,
without a murmur a demand for
more and larger pensions that may
be made.
"Impairment of earning capacity"
is declared to be the only just basis
for pensions. It is further set fo-th
"that the weakuess of every com
pauy, regiment, battalion aud divis
ion was in the shirk"?, cowards and
vice-destroyed nun who incumbered
its muster rolls, devoured its sub
itance and crowded honest but dis
abled men out of the hospitals. Such
men do not hesitate to-day to live
ou the generous gratitude of the poor
through payments made on the pen
sionB obtained by fraud or at the ex
pense of honor. Men of the same
type tire to day the leeches and evil
doers of society'
"We demand,'" says the founders,
"that the pension legislation of the
past of the future hall be revised
that the honor, as well as necessi
ties of the soldiers, sailor and those
immediately dependent upon them,
shall be fully recognized and jeal
ously guarded "
This movement starts off strong.
It is significant for the reaction
which has set in against excessive
pensioning.
A Horrihle Thin-.
Lamar Miiiourian.
A boy, afflicted with fits, died at
the poor farm, four miles south of
town, some time Saturday night. Iu
au old cabin practically unattended
by any save a fellow pauper or two,
one of whom was an idiot, the unfor
tunate lad died, and early Monday
morniug. as we learn, the lower por
tion of his face and part of a cheek
were found to be eaten aw ay by rats.
Had the mutilation occurred after
death, this chapter would be suffi
ciently dark and forbidding; but hor
rible to relate the sombre shadows
are but intensified by the conjecture
amounting almost to belief on the
part of some, that the poor boy was
living, when the rats got at his face.
We are told that, on Monday after
noon, when Dr. Stone viewed the
corpse, there were signs of blood
around the edges of the bites, which
fact but adds strength to the latter
theory. The farm is kept by a Mr.
Clark, whose cerdoct in this matter
should be rigidly investigated.
A Woman Mayor's Troubles.
Wichita, Oct 9. The austere rule
of Mrs. Jennie Paxton, mayor of Kio
wa has at last led to an open rupture.
Yesterday a petition signed by al
most the entire business community
was presented to her, asking her to
retire from office.
Eiewa, an old cattle town, has al
ways been known as liberal, and
much of its business has resulted
from the patronage of cow men.
Mrs. Paxton's raee for the mayoralty
last spring, though made for the
avowed purpose of closing the sa
loons, was regarded as such a huge
joke that little attention was paid to
her, and she slipped in by a few
votes. Ever since her election she
has kept up a warfare on the joints,
and early this week 6he deputized a
special squad of police to close them
and keep them closed. The business
men then jot together, told the
joiutists to keep open aud hired an
attorney to defend them. It soon
developed that there is no city erdi
dance under which Mrs. Paxton has
power to close the joints 60 every
thing is wid open again.
Mrs. Paxton is in a quandarr.
The W. C. X. U. of the city urge her
to retain her otSce. but other influ
ences are pulling in the opposite di
rection, and it if hard to foretell the
outcome.
OKI KCT1 VK O M A LI.F.Y RELEASED
No Cas Made Against Him in the
Jury-Fixing Matter at
New Orlraua.
New Oileaus, La., Oct. 8. Dom
inick O'Malley, the detective who
figured so conspicuously in the Hen
nessy murder trial, and who wae
supposed t) Lavo b.ibed the jury
and thus precipitated the Parish
Prison lynching an J the Italian af
fair, was tried to day under the in
dictment for jury bribery found
against him at the Heunesr trial
and discharged as the state had no
evidence whatever against him, the
only evidence it offered being ruled
out.
The news created quite a sensa
tion, for au immense majority of the
people believed that O'Malley was a
jury fixer, that he bribed the jury in
this case and that there would be
little trouble to prove it At the
time of the disturbance here iu
March the feeling against O'Malley
was more intense than against the
supposed assassins. The committee
of Safety ordered him to leave the
city, but be refused to do so. After
the lynching at the Palish Prison,
the mob marched to O'Malley 's of
fice to lynch him, but a friend had
given him timely warning aud he es
caped a few minutes before the
crowd broke in. Had he been caught
then or within a few days afterwards
he would have been summarily dealt
with, but although he was hunted
high and low it was impossible to
find him. To the surprise of all and
before the excitement had cooled
down O'Malley put in his appear
ance. He had heard, he said, that
the grand jury had indicted him and
he came to stand trial. There were
some whispers of lynching, br.t his
boldness and courage saved him
The bribery trial against him was
postponed sc ural times, but came
up finally to da-, when the state
abandoned it and entered a plea of
nolle prosequi. It was popularly be
lieved that there would be no diffi
culty in convicting O'Malley, aud
this ending of the case was a consid
erable surprise to all. O'Malley al
ways insisted that the indictments
against him were found simply to
justify the lynching. To do this it
was necessary the charge that the
jury had been bribed, and as he
managed the case for the Italians
the bribery was fiied on him.
It is probable that now that O'
Malley is out of danger from the
law he will have soiuetbiuc' to say
of the Heunesy murder and the Par
ish Prison lynching.
"I have been asked to keep quiet"
he said to-day and allow the matter
to be forgotten. I will not be vin
dictive, but I do not propose to le
the matter stand."
Missouri's Finances Excellent.
Jefferson City, Mo., Oct. 10.

tion on the state auditor for his war
