The money was in the yault secured hy a time lock, and no force was used on the same. A reward of $4,000 has been offered as follows: Two thous and dollars for the discovery and a proportional amount for the return of any part thereof, and $2,000 for the arrest an‘! conviction of the guil ty party or parties.

Chicago, Ill., April 4 —Assassin Prendergast will not be hanged be fore July 2, and not until May 21 will the investigation into the con dition of his mind b+ commenced. Such was the order issued by Judge Chetlain this afternoon at 5 o'clock. The defense insisted on the case be fore a jury from the regular venire, and to this the State's attorney stoutly objected. He insisted a speci al venire should be made, ashe want- ei “men of intelligence” not the kind of men to be found on the reg ulation jury. When the hearing came up before Judge Chetlain to day it was agreed that only one continuance should be made and that one long enough to provide for the full trial of the case. Th» State asked for four months and the defense asked for two weeks more. The trial of the case was reckoned to take 2 month and con sequently the dates of May 21 and July 2 were agreed upon The caseis now in an awful tangle, and neither State’s Attorney Kern, Special Coun sel Trude, upon whom the burden of the prosecution rests, nor the at torneys for the defense are prepared to say what will be the outcome. Washington, D C., April 4—The report of the Secretary of Agricul- ture in reply te the resolution of Senator Pettigrew calling for a statc- ment of the visible and invisible sup ply of wheat was submitted to the Senate to-day. The total supply on March 1. 1893, he states, was 610, 000,000 bushels. Exports from March 1, 1893, to March 1, 1894, consumption from March 1, 1893, to March 1, 1874, amountin farmers’ hands March 1, 1893, and visib’e supply March 1, 1894, he states amounted to 729,000,000 bushels. which he gives as the total amount distributed and available for distri- bution. The apparent discrepancy ix 119,000,000 bushels. The supply ou hand March 1, 1894, he says, was 190,000,000. The probable con- sumption from March 1 to July 1, 1894, he put at 121,000,000 bushels, leaving 69,000,000 bushels available for export from March 1 to July 1, 1894. An Elephant Killed by Torture. Wichita, Kas., April 5.—George, a big elephant belonging to Howe & Cushing's show, got on a rampage Monday and his keeper now lies in the hespital. A new ketper took eharge of the animal and a terrible fight ‘or mastery follewed The elephant was strapped, down, beat- ea with stake pins and bored with hot irons. It died ef its wounds yesterday. The elephant’s tusks are saidto be among the largest in America. Defaced a Soldiers’ Monument. Indianapolis, Ind., April 5.—Rev. | W. J. Mygrant, from Hicksville, O., | attending the Missionary State con ference of the Evangelical society, was arrested yesterday for defacing the soldiers’ and sailors monument. He scratched his name on the stone- work. He was fined $10 and cost. tion by the Legislature. Speeches were made by Lieutenaut Governor |Dungan, Speaker Stoue, George C. Wright, and others, aud the whole afternoon given up to the oecasior. | Governor Jackson participated in| the ceremonies. Mr. Jones will be | | 90 years old April 12, aud the recep | tion was in recognition of the event. |General Joues served in Congress with Polk, John Bell, Alexander Stephens and Lincoln, and was once a partner of Daniel Webster, with whom be purchased the site of Madi son, Wis. He was one of the first to suggest the idea of a transconti ] nental railway. In his youth he was a protege of Henry Clay classmate of Jefferson Davis at Transylvania, and a warm friend of the Confederate He was a} ief. Senator Vest’s Income Tax Change Considered. Washington, D. C. April 4.—The proceedings of the Senate up to 2 o'clock, when Mr. Allison resumed his tariff speech were devoid of gen- eral interest. Senator Vest’s main suggestions for a change in the bill are made in| the increase tax. Headds the pro | vision: “That all non resident cor porations shall be subject to a tax of 2 per cent upon all distributed sums sent abroad, which sums for the purpose of this act shall be held to be dividends to foreign stockholders or policy holders, an? the resident agent or manager of such foreign corporation shall with-hold said tax of 2 per cent from all such undistri- buted sums and make return and pay the tax thereon He also makes a provision exempt- ing a liquer manufacturer from pay ing the tax of a wholesale liquor dealer Chairman Wilson expects to be in the House when the tarift bill comes back to that body for consideration. | | | The Populist: Ticket. The state ticket nominated last Tuesday at Kansas City by the pop- ulists is not calculated to enliven the Something out of the ordinary was anticipated from that gathering, but the deliberations were not characterized by enthusiasm and the results are commonplace indeed. Mr. O D. Jones, the nominee for judge of the supreme court, lives up at Knox county and has been a poitical disturber for many years, leading first the union labor party aud then the people's party. This is the fourth time he has received this nomination, and it seems a trifle curious that the populists never dream of allowing anybody to head the ticket but O. D Jones, who has not even the prestige of a single v.ctory, or anything approaching a victory. i H campaign. The nominee for railroad commis- Mr. T. J. Hendrickson of | Bates county, is quite well known here in Jefferson City, where he served as a member of the legislature three years ago. He was conspicuous for his anti railroad bills and was generally set down asa socialist in politics, albeit a very pleasant and | pleasing gentleman to meet. Mr. Elhff, nominated for superin- tendent of public schools, is not known to the public. He lives in McDonald county and his qualifica- tions have yet to be written down. | Allin all, the populist ticket is aj remarkably poor one, considering | the material the party was supposed to have at hand and the interest which it was generally believed cen sioner, tered in the convention. It might have done much better. It could hardly have done worse. The pop- ulists will now go into the campaign handicapped by a weak ticket and a plattorm upon which nobody can {stand who hag ever fora moment} {stood on a demucratic platform. | ‘he Tribune repeats its declara- tion of three months ago—there are no real populists in Missouri,—Jef- ' |ferson City Tribune. lf you do not leok better, feel better, leat beiter and sleap better bring it back | That is what we say when we sell a bot- itle of Parks Sure cure.

When the talk of Tillman's issuing his police proclamation first began, Secretary Tindal expressed must unmistakable disapproval of the seheme, and after the proclama tion was issued Secretary Tindal stated tc an entirely responsible gentleman in Charleston that he had not given anyone leave to sign his name, and that his chief clerk had the great seal of the State except in his presence.

So far as known, the most exten- sive orchardist in the world is Judge Fred Wellhouse of Topela. He has 1,700 acres in orchards in this state. Last week he planted 270 acres to apple trees in Leaven- worth county. The stock for this planting was grown in his own nur- series and consisted of 25,000 2-year- old trees of only three varieties. These were proportioned is follows twenty-five acres in Jonathan, seven- ty five in Ben Davis and 170 acres in Gano. The plauting was made in rows thirty-two feet apart and sixteen feet apart in the rows. The entire 25,000 trees were taken from the nursery and set in tke orchard in three days by thirty men and the time from the lifting of a tree in the nursery until it was planted in the orchard was only ten to twenty minutes. The orchard ground was marked out by deep furrows both ways, the trees were pianted in place by hand and enough soil: placed around them to hold them in posi- tion and protect the roots and the remainder of the filling was done | with the plow.
