Expressing my surprise that a pri- vate citizen should go so heavily armed, he remarked that a man who had passed through what hehad had good reason to make a walking arse- nal of himself, and with that he stripped his undershirt. The sight that presented itself was a curiosity. The man had been literally cut and chopped to pieces. His back and breast was a solid mass of scare from wounds received in battle and persenal affrays. A dozen times or more he has been shot through and through, while there was scarcely an inch upon his breast and sides, but what bore the mark of a knife or saber.” The eonundrum now is, will they capture Bunch? He is a desperate man and will not be taken without a struggle. He has a brother residing in the Indian Territory, and it is supposed that he is making for that haven of the wicked. Once therehe can bid defiance to any ordinary posse of officers and hold the fort against his enemies. Bunch is about 40 years of age, weighs about 180 pounds, and is tall and well proportioned, with dark hair and red mustache. He dresses well and is an interesting conversationalist, and will pass as an intelligent, clever gentleman in any company into which he thrown. Dallas, Tex., Nov. 14.—Dispatches from New Orleans announce the ar- rest of J. Leon Pound as an accom- plice in the recent train robbery near New Orleans, as well as that of & woman named Cora Ellis, former- ly of Tyler, Tex, who has for some months been known under the dual names of Mrs. Girard and Mrs. Buncb. Both parties allege that the chief of the gang which perpetrated the robbery E. F. Bunch, a party well s: own iu this city, and, in fact, throughout North Texas. The wo- man was captured yesterday, and Ween ies person, sewed up in her clothing, was found $1,000 in green- backs, which shealleged Bunch gave her immediately after the robbery. time ago Dr. Robert Nabers, living at Montevallo, this state, employed W. W. Shortridge, a lawyer, to col- lect a few claims against delinquent patients. The returns were not sat- isfactory. and the men quarreled. Last Saturday Nabers called at Shortridge’s office and the trouble broke out again. They finally agreed to fight with bowie knives ina dark room just off the office. Removing their coats and shoes they entered upon the floor, Few men have led a more adven- stairs. turous career than E. F. Bunch. Burn in Noxubee county, Miss., he entered the confederate army at the early age of 16 years, and by con- spicuous daring and bravery soon won his straps. At the close of the war he migrated to Amite, La., where he taught school, but becom- ing involyed in some trouble he immigrated to Texas, settling in Cook county, where he continued to follow the profession of a teacher. Bright, intelligent, with polished manners and insinuating address, he soon established himself as a popu- lar favorite, and almost before he had acquired citizenship he was elected county and district clerk. He held the office for two terms, and then, disposing of a handsome land- ed property which he had accumu- lated, moved to Wichita county, in the Panhandle, where, for a brief period, he engaged in the publica- tion of a newspaper at the county seat. in his hand. the room was Shortridge. ner. been severed, ly by the tendons.

Will hold its 31st annual meeting in the city of Nevada, upon invita- tion of the Vernon ccunty, Horti- cultural $Society, December 5, 6 and 7, 1888. This year of abund- ant fruit crops is the horticult- urist’s year. We wish therefore that the fruit growers of our state would make a special effort to meet with us. Matters of much interest and profit will come up and we want your viewsand your experience on all these important subjects. Our apple orchards will occupy a prominent position and we want an exhaustive discussion of our apple interests in all its branches: Our small fruits will receive care- ful attention. The peach interests of Southern Missouri should be fully discussed. Our transportation problem is an important matter for us to think about. The evening will be given to papers and speeches for entertain- ment of the public, but the day ses- sions should be made practical in the discussions. Study the program and be ready to give your views on the important mattersas they come up. If you have any matter of interest or expe- rience, be sure that you let us have it. We learn by mistake as well as success, and we trust that you will feel free to take part in all discus- sions. Quick, sharp discussions; good, practical hints; broad, liberal con- clusions; clear decided statements, are what we want in the presentation of any subject.

Bunch was esteemed one of the best citizens. One of the stories was to this ef- fect: “Bunch, while on his way to St. Louis, became intoxicated at Texarkana, and struck a negro por- ter over the head with a six-shooter. He was arrested by the marshal and placed in the ealaboose, but on searching him the marshal carelessly overlooked a revolver Bunch had concealed under his vest. As he stepped inside the cell he drew his weapon, and, covering the marshal with it, compelled that official to ehange places with him. Turning the key upon the imprisoned official Bunch coolly walked to the train which was just then ready to start, and stepping aboard continued his journey unmolested.” About eighteen months ago Bunch removed from the Panhandle, but he gave no intimation as to his fu- ture location. He was seen frequent- ly at Dalias, Fort Worth and other prominent railroad points, and when the train robbery oceurred at Ben- brook, in June, 1887, certain circum- stances led the cfficers to suspicion Bunch as one of the parties concern- ed in the affair. Whether justly sus- picioned or not, it is an open secret. But immediately after the robbery Bunch appeared in Dallas and Ft. Worth, in both of which cities he lost large sums of money at the gam- ing table, and frequently boasted there “was plenty more where that came from.” with his knife. upon the floor.

As tothe laborer, I say plainly that if the tariffon pig metal was $100 a ton and every cent of it went into my pocket, I would hire my men in open market as cheap asI could. If Iwanted 200 and found 100 sitting about, I should get them cheap. If 400 were wanted and but 200 to be had, I should pay them their price. There is, in my opinion no more relation between the price of wages and the protective tariff than between it and the transit of Venus. Every manufacturer who is willing to tell the truth knows this. No man buys sugar of Jones for 10 cents that he can purchase of John- son for 8—and the manufacturer does not live who pays more for la- bor than will secure it. It's not common sense to suppose he would. If he be philanthropically inclined he will do something very different —endow some institution for the benefit of his workmen or their fam- ilies or establish baths, reading- rooms, etc., but never will he pay more for wages than supply and de- mand compel him to. A Mad Dog’s Victims. Indianapolis, Nov., 14.—A dog owned by Patrick Walsh went mad yesterday and attacked Miss Cora Walsh, an 18-year-old daughter of the owner, biting both her arms. In attempting to rescue his daughter Mr. Walsh was badly bitten on the hand. The dog then started ona mad flight through the streets with several policemen in pursuit. The dog bit fully fifty animals and finaly attacked a small child, tearing. out, one of the little fellows cheeks and: destroying an eye. After a chase of two miles the dog was killed. A Tariff Message. President Cleveland will commence his annual message to congres dur- ing the present week, and like the document that he sent in a year ago, it will be devoted almost exclusively to the tariff. He will urge congress, without regard to party policy, to pass a bill for the reduction of the revenues, and will urge the democrats as wellas the republicans to make concessions in order that it may be accomplished. The president in- tends to go out of office as he came in, arevenue reformer. After the Spoils. John W. Walker, a republican negro —a one armed man, who lost his arm while a soldier in the Union army—will be applicant for the Se- dalia post-office, and is now getting signers to his application. The re- publicans cannot object to this as Mr. Walker is one of the party and pledges himself not to give all the places to the Knights of Labor.— Sedalia Bazoo.
