ADVERTISER: In justice to myself, I will write a short piece this week, as I am not allowed to give my evi- dence in court, so as to explain the case, as George Maloney made believe on the streets that our engagement had never been broken and seemed te make a big to-do sbout me net re- turning his ring, which I did do, and he knows it. Loffered it to him time and again until he wrote me a letter and said as follows: ‘‘Amy, our engagement ring, you cam do as you please with it. I never will takeit back.’’ I offered the ring back time after time and he would not take it, but begged and plead with me to keep the ring. He said he would destroy it if he took it, and told me that if I could not love oreven marry him, that I might fo as much as to keep the ring to please him. He also said that if he had it it would only keep the past in his memory. I told him I would not have it and thought it best for him to take it, but he cried and plead so hard with me to keep the ring to please him, and through sym- pathy I told him I would keep it, but would not Wear it. IfI was only allowed to tell that it was his own disgusting and domineering disposition that made me hate himso, for he was all the time threatening to kill himself and me, even before the engagement was broken, and always blaming me, which made me hatehim. I tried every way [could to get him to do right and quit blaming me, but he would not; then I tried to make him let me alone and forget me, andas we could not agree on anything, 1 thought it best for the engagement to be broken and we mutually agreed that it should be, as I have letters to prove. But instead of him letting me alone, he still forced his atventions on me, but I gave him no encouragement after the engagement was broken, but told him I thought it best for us not to correspond or keep company, but he just forced his company on me by threatening my life if 1 coutinued re- fusing to let him come and see me. Through fear, and by him promising he weuld not try to renew the engagement, or bring up any subjects of the past, hecalled afew more times, but I did not go any place with him after Oct- ober 2d, 1887, until I agreed totakea 20 minutes drive on April 28th. I did this through sympathy, thinking it would satisfy him, and that I could persuade him at that time to go away and let me alone, but my attempt in this proved useless, as atl previous ones had done, and it is well known, by the letter he gave me during the drive, that he intended to either marry or kill me, and I had to promise to mar- ry him or be shot down like a dog, and before I would be forced to marry a man of such a dis- position, I would rather die. Thisis why I had him arrested. Amy DEARMAN. [Next week I will write a full account of the circumstances of this affair from beginning un- tilnow.) Any. FROM MR, MALONEY’S STANDPOINT. action of the grand jury. The Tims received the following letter July 4th, Isss: Vincisia, Mo., July 1. Ep. Burter Werkiy Times In your issue of June 27 you published an articte entitled ‘‘Stole His Sweetheart,’’ writ- ten by some would-be quill-driver of Adrian, who, it seems, would rather write false state- ments than true ones; for, if he attended the trial he spoke of, he well knowsthat a greater part of his effusion is false. He first says that I (George Maloney) was tried on a charge of attempting to kidnap Miss Amy DeArman. Wonder if he knows the Meaning of kidnap? But nevertheless, whether knows the meaning of the term he used or not, it seems that he wished to make a false i impres- sion upon the minds of the readers of your paper, for I was tried on a charge of abduction, and notona charge ef kidnapping. Next he states: ‘‘There was also another charge, of threatening to shoot Miss Amy in case she refused to marry him.’’ Impossible, it seems, for him to write a true statement of anything, for the other charge was of writing threatening letters. Next he endeavors to give a brief sketch of the trial and its results, which, in almost every instance, is false. For the benefit of the readers of your paper, that they may be a little more truly enlightened about this ‘‘Bates county bumpkin.’’ as that dupe called me, *‘trying to make a girl marry him,’’ I will give a sketch of t real truth of rent from the ous article i correspondent wrote and I—or st I thought s of May, 1 I placed the bet her front » and fro! been very intimate frien she never returned the ring friendly when we were together, and wonld always allow me to bid her good-bye with a regular old 1s karat ‘‘yum yum.’’ Sweet, but oh! how sad, To love a girl and be fired by her dad. Inregard to the so-called romance, it was about as follows: Some time in April I inyited Miss Amy to take s few minutes’ drive with me. She accepted the invitation, and on Wednesday, April 25, about 5 o'clock p. m we started for the above drive. About dark she asked me to take her home. This I refused to do, telling herI wanted an explanation of something yet unexplained. But astome forming Miss Amy that she must consent to be my Wife or I would drive her to the Indian Territory’’ isa base falsehood, for she had already given her consent to that ten thousand times ifpossible. But, on the other hand, she begged of me to take her back to Butler and letus marry, so that people would not talk about us and give us an ill name from being Out all night tegether. We returnedto Butler next morning after being outall night,and jus- seven weeks and two days after this perileus might, and so-called romance, I was placed under arrest with a Warrant sworn out by my rl was tried before Jui ing in me being hel: “Stole give Satin his do MaLoney Terrible ne € He nt. Will Trader, a young u abot 17 years of age, living on the Conk- lin farm about five miles north of the rcity, met with a very serious and painful accident Saturday evening, at the residence of his grandfather, Mr. Manley, some 12 miles north of Butler. Trader had been hunting in the neighborhood during the day and while getting into his wagon to start home in the evening carelessly placed his hand over the muzzle of his gun to assist himself into the wagon. In doing so the hammer of the gun came in contact with the wheel dis- charging it, the contents tearing away the two middle fingers of the right hand and cutting off the fore finger and thumb at the first joint. In addition the palm of the hand was terribly lacerated by the explo- sion. Dr. J. T. Walls of this city dress- ed the wound Sunday evening, and informs us that he was compelled to amputate the two middle fingers close to the knuckle joint and the in- dex finger and thumb at the first joint. The hand was badly mutilat- ed and in order to what save was left the doctor was fully hour ordeal.

Mrs. Heinlein of Butler, was visit- ing Mrs. Billings last week. We understand that Mr. Peter Hermann is very fond of grapes, and Mr. Deerwester has plenty of them. An ice cream supper was given at the residence of Mr. McCandless on Friday mght, which was well attend- ed and every one enjoyed themselves splendid.

Everybody will take in the base ball game at Rockville next Satur- day, between the Rockville and Osceola nines. A good game is ex- pecied.
