An Agent of the State of Ohio Takes Charge of Trnes dale, Wanted at Cleveland for Rob bcry and Leaves With Kim for the East. Officer A. A. Lawrence, the duly accredited agent of the State of Ohio, arrived he.re this morning from Cleve land to take Truesdale back to the scene of his crime. His papers did not call for Zebbehn, Truesdale's part ner, and he was released. jtfr. Law rence, however, says that Zebhelin worked at the same place with Trues dale m Cleveland and left the city with him him, but so far as known had no hand in the robbery. He says Truesdale worked in a sale or livery barn and roomed at the resi dence of Mre. Edvans, a widow lady. On the morning of the day the rob bery was committed, he notified the landlady that he should probably sleep late as he had been on continuous duty for some time. He retired to his room fastened the door and appar ently went to bed. Mrs. Edvans closed the house and went down town on a business mission. During her absence Truesdale stripped the room of everything of value that he could carry away and forced open ihe doors to other rooms in the house and stole a let of other things, and then taking two large sized valises, packed the goods into them and decamped. The value of the goods stolen is about $100. In addition to the robbery, he ran off with a gold watch, chain and charm which he bought at Colby & Wright's installment house. He had paid but one installment, ST.bO, on the purchase. The watch, chain and charm found on his person ware ident ified by the numbers as the property fraudulently carried away.

A glance at the old records of Lafayette county show that on Feb 24, 1S32, A. W. Doniphan was appointed a justice of the peace. This was the late Gen. Doniphan of Kay county, the hero of the "expedition to Mexico," the longest military march in the history of the world. About six weeks ago the writer met in St. Louis Col. K. A. Easton, who commanded one of the Mis souri regiments which accompanied Gen. Doniphan on this march. Col. Easton is in his 82nd year, as clear and vigorous in mind and as hale in body as the ayerage man of 60 years. This expedition marched overland from Independence, Mo., to Braz zitto, Mexico, and back again, a total dis tance of over 6,000 miles. Lexington Isews. The 31.. K. fc T., Reorganization. ne stocKnomers oi tne m., l. a l. are not anxious to hurry up their reorganiza tion as the road is doing better, perhaps, in the hands of the receivers than it would in the hands of the owners. The road had been neglected and allowed to run down until the lowest estimate put upon the cost to repair it was $2,000,000. As the credit of the line stood prior to its passing into the receiver's hands was so low that the money could not be borrowed except at ruinous rates, if, indeed, it could be had at all. Everybody, particularly railroad men, supposed that the road would linger along for a few years and be consumed in receiver certificates, and finally be disposed of section at a time to different roads and the great M., K. & T. pass into history. But to the astonishment of those who sup posed the road had seen its best days, it rose almost as if by magic and within 8 months has taken a position among the great lines with a credit as good as the best. Instead of being consumed by re ceiver certificates the roads treasury is full of cash, enough to meet extraordinary re building projects, purchase new cars, en gines and to build 34 miles of new road, and yet leave a surplus. The bond holders do not get any interest, but their security is being daily made better and .their se curities increased in value, equal to a 10 per cent dividend. If they do not get a cent within 2 years the increase in the value of their bonds will exceed a 10 per cent, per annum dividend. The market price of the first and second mortgage bonds has already increased at the rate of 1$ per cent, a month since the future of the road has become assured. The Kansas City & Pacific, the recent ly acquired M., K. & T. branch, is worth $2,000,000. At least that is what the own ers ask for it Receiver Eddy, of the M. K. & T., left for Leavenworth, his home, yesterday morning. He will leave for Yellowstone Park to-morrow, accompanied by his fam ily and Judge Brewer of the United States court. mam Ladies who value a refined complexion must use Pozzoni's Powder it produces a soft and beautiful skin. A Handsome Present. Cant. Parish is finishing up a fine six poand field piece to be used as an orna ment for Gen. Smith's Po.t room. The gun is of wood and was turned and bronzed at St. Louis, and looks so near like a real gun that the deception could not be de tected a few feet distant. The carriage was made by the captain, who proposes to pre sent it to the post. It is a handsome pres ent and will be greatly appreciated by the G. A. R. comrades. ANOTHER BRUTE.

The matter was placed in the hands of the officers who are in quest of the fellow. He evi dently realized that he had commit ted a great crime and fled from the city in all possible haste. It is thought that he made his way to Ben ton county as he came from there last week. MORE AEANESS. A White Man Charged With As saulting a Colored Matron.

COLLEGE. main w'th Drowned Fisb. Last week a heavy rain storm in the valley of the big Tebo river, flooded the cornfields where the soil was loose and which readily mixed with the washing waters. The stream quickly became swollen and the flood of waters poured into th e Grand river. Parties living along the latter stream were astonished at the appearance on the surface of the water of all kinds of fish, of sizes from 30 to 40 pounds weight and less. So tame were the fish that many were caught by simply pulling them out of the water by hand, and soon many were seen floating dead or near ly so down with the current into the Osage. The cause of this fish catas trophe was doubtless the muddy con dition of the water, together possi bly with some peculiar ingredients of the soil that had a sickening and deadly effect on the finny tribes of the river.
