Gentry belongs toa respectable family of this county, members of which have frequently held important offices aud many of whom stand prominent to day. Years ago Asbury ran away to Tex- as where he developed into a crimi- nal of the worst class. He returned about two years ago career of horse stealing, which made him feared all through the country. One yeur ago the dead body of an Trish peddler was found near Villa Rica. ‘The murder was finally traced to Gentry. While the grand} jary was investigating the crime the hetel in which the me:nbers slept in| Buchanan was blown up by dyna- mite and the inmates badly shaken up. Subsequutly Gentry was tried, cted and sentenced to death. For safe keeping hé was sent to the Atlanta jail, from which he escaped about two months ago. Before he left he wrote a letter stating tliat | before he left the country for good | he would kill the judge and solici-} tor general who had tried him, and that he would burn the town down.

Finally, on behalf of the rail- road, Judge Shirk offered her $600 to drop the suit. This was accepted anda few days later she received six oue hundred dollar bills The day following Judge Shirk met her in a store where she was making some purchases, and he was surpris ed to see her walking about without crutch or cane and so informed her. In explanation of the remarkable cure, the woman said: “Last night I tied one of them new $100 bills over the injured knee and this morn- ing I found myself entirely recover- ed, and hence have no furthur u for the crutch and cane.” Jefferson And the E: rs Daughter.

Washington, April 6.—The presi-, dent and Secretary Gresham are in favor of the appoiutment cf Gen. Jo Shelby as marshal of the western district of Missouri.

To coun- terpoise the selection of Broadhead | and Crittenden, he thinks Gen. Shel- by ought to be made marshal of tie western district to satisfy the other | | side.
