CONVICT H ARDY BECAPTUBED.
Indications That He “’as Assisted 1n-
sidc the Prison to Escape.
PLATTSBURG, N. Y., Oct. 6.—Henry F.
Hardy, the convict who escaped from
Clinton prison last Thursday, was re-
captured herc while attempting to board
atrain for New York. On Officer Wood
approaching him, Hardy opened fire wit
a revolver. lVood returned the shots an
brought him down, shooting him in the
leg and laming him for life.
Hardy was fairly well dressed and was
well supplied with money. He had a
five hundred dollar bill, a twenty dollar
bill and nine dollars in small bills. He
had two 32-caliher revolvers and a map 0
Clinton county, all of which would indi-
cate that he had assistance not only out-
side but inside the prison as well. Hardy
says when he left the prison he went into
the woods and came around by Codyville,
reaching here yesterday afternoon.
After a consultation by several doctors
in attendance upon Hardy, it was decided
to amputate his right leg above the knee
in Spite of the protests by Hardy and his
friends. Hardy told the prison doctor this
morning that he would rather die than
lose his leg.
A Dying Miser Conceal-T His Wealth.
ST. J osnrn, 3.10., Oct. 6.—Danie1McCor‘
mick, a miser, is dying in a dilapidated
tenement house on North Second street.
He cannot live twelve hours. Friends and
two relatives are vainly endeavoring to
persuade the old man to tell where he has
hidden 87,000 that he is known to possess.
McCormick is seventy years of age. For
nearly two months he has eaten nothing,
and his body is so wasted that the bones
almost stick through the skin. He served
through the war in the Fourth regiment,
Missouri state militia, and several years
ago received a pension with the back pay
amounting to $6,000. Since that time he
has spent nothing and he has kept the
money buried. TV hen he was taken sick
$1,000 was found sewed inside of his un‘
derclothing.

here to assist in the formation Of Demo-
cratic clubs as proposed to the Democratic
national committee. A public meeting
will be held, at which Faulkner and Byn-
um will speak, and on Tuesday a confer-
ence with leading Democrats will be held.
Rain Spoiling \Vheut.
ST. PAUL, Oct. 0.—Last night’s reports
indicate that it is raining all over the Red
river valley wheat belt. J. D. Smith re‘
turned from that region yesterday. His
business brought him in direct contact
with the farmers, and he told a. discour4
aging story. He said: “There will be a
good deal of wheat spoiled this season.
The farmers can’t take care of it. On alt
most every farm in the Red river country
you will see many acres of wheat still
standing in the fields exposed to storms.”
The Lady Dead and Her Escort Dying.
BOSTON, Oct. 6.—At the Oakland street

down a buggy occupied by John Sherry,
aged forty-three, and Miss Gertrude Kelly,

buggy was entirely demolished, and its
occupants were thrown more than thirty
feet. Miss Kelly was picked up dead and
Mr. Sherry in an unconscious condition,

ing a broken spine.
Senecal Brazens It Out.
OTTAWA, Oct. 6.——Andrea Seneca], the

11);; bureau, who fled some weeks ago to es-
cape testifying before the investigating

POTTSVILLE, Pa, Oct. 6.—-The six miner
who were entombed by the ”running” 0
a pilinrof coal at Richardson on Saturl
day night have not yet been rescued, and
there is no hope of reaching them for
many hours. The rush of coal has cut 05
the air supply to the farther end of the
slope and it is feared the men have been
suffocated, if they escaped being burned.
Double shifts of men are at work remov-
in g the coal which blocks the gangway.

finish between Turpin and Ingalls, both
claiming the championship of Iowa, took

vate.

T'he Chinese and Pork.
The princl al article of meat diet
with the Oh nose is pork. It is to
them what beef is to the true son of
Albion’s isle. The Chinese butcher,
having only the one species of animal
on which to exercise his skill,” has be-
come by practice a hog anatomist in
the full sense of the WOI‘d. A fat
porker as soon as it is placed on the
block in a retail ChineSc butcher shop
is scietifically rid Of all its bones. The
carcass is expertly cut into strips, so
that every customer gets an equal
quantity Of fat and lean with his pur-
chase. It is sold salted, smoked, or
roasted ready for eating.
It is almost smeared with nut Oil
and disposed of inva semi-dried state.
T. e hungry celestial is frequently
to be seen investing a five-cont piece
in a large strip of roasted pork, which
I 9 cats with every evidence of satis-
nil-togy relish us he strolls along the
sx-ce .
The Chinese, having become inured
to their many strange articles of diet,
evidently find as muclt enjoyment in
their dishes as does the sympathetic
American from his pot pourri of mix-
tures, which bring with them the at-
tending evils of dyspepsia and indi-
gestion.
A ('lcrgynnun’s Public House.
A clergyman of the Church Of Eng-
land, a resident of Warwickshire,
England, the Rev. 0. Mordaunt has
kept a public house for fourteen years,
He pays the managers and allows
them profits on what food they sell.
They are not permitted to press the
sale of drinks, and he gives them no
profits on what they do sell. The only
drink sold is ale, wine and spirits
being eschewed, but the ale is unadul-
terated. The result is said to be a.
profit _to the clergyman, which he
spends in sinking wells in the village,
and an almost entire disappearance of
drunkenness from the village. Some
will think that there is a suggestion
in this experience for temperance
workers elsewhere. We hardly think
that any clergyman in our own coun-
try would care to make the experi-
ment—N. Y. Observer.
He “Forgot Sonnethin’."
A man who lives near Randolph
came to town the other day with his
wife, left her to do the trading at the
stores, and went around visiting
friends and neighbors whom he hap-
pened to meet. After spending three
or four hours in town, he unhitched
his team, went to the mill andloaded
on his grist and went home. As he
drove up to his house his little girl
met him with: “Why, pa, where’s
ma?” “By jinks, I’ve forget her. I
knowed I had forgot somethin’,” was
the reply. The man drove back to
town in a hurry, and found his wife
waiting in a very impatient mood.
Our informant says that the argument
which ensued was about seven miles
long, and the summing up was not
completed until after 10 o’clock at
night—Cannon Falls Beacon.
Preparing for u Campaign,
A Jefferson avenue young man who
has money enough to do the summer
resorts and conscience enough to flirt
with every girl he meets went into a
Woodward avenue jewelry store last
week \\ here he knew one of the clerks.
“I want three rings, lady’s size,” he
said.
“Ah,” smiled the clerk cunningly,
“going to have a circus this summon
are you"’-—Detroit Free Press.
