The Notorious Outlaw Shot Dead by a Brave Young Man. Clarksville, Ark., July 18.—News has reached this city of the killing of Wash Middleton, the most noted outlaw of northwest Arkansas. About six months ago he was captured in Missouri, tried and convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 21 years in the penitentiary, but escap- ed and started for Newton county, this state. his old home. He was pursued by two officers, who over- took him a short distance this side of Springfield and called on him to surrender. He answered them by opening fire on them, killing both of them instantly. A large reward was then offered for the outlaw, dead or alive, and a young man named Small, of Spring- field, followed him to Jasper. New- ton county, at which place he over- took him, and at a picnie called on him to throw up his hands. Mid- dleton attempted to draw a weapon and was shot dead.

Toledo, O., July 17.—Early this morning Patrolman Romer walked into the police station with a prisoner carrying an ordinary black valise in his hand. He ordered the doorkeeper to lock the fellow up. The prisoner gave his name as Herbert E. Nobles, M. D., of Stony Ridge, and the charge of murder was placed against his name. He was locked up in the pad- ded cell, and upon opening the valise the officers were horrified to find the dead body of an infant evidently only afew hours old. Shortly afterward Mrs. Mary Hughes was arrested, charged with being an accessory to the murder. The officers, who were witnesses to all that passed that night, say that the child’s erying ap- parently disturbed the young woman and that she inquired: “Can't you stop that child's crying?” Shortly after this the cries that disturbed the mother ceased forever. About 4 o'clock the doctor took the infant then dead, wrapped it up and placed it in his valise. He hurried to the depot, and when arrested would have dropped the valise in the river had not an officer prevented him from doing so. The name of the girl is said to be Lillie Lutz. She is the daughter of a wealthy farmer resid- ing near this city.
