Tutt’s Liver Pills HORSE-THIEF, E ANGELIST, BURGLAR. Remarkabla Career ot Dave English, a i Federal Prisoner at Chester Peni- tiary, Chester, Ill., Oct. 28.—Dave En- glish, horse-thief, evangelist and burglar, is again behind prison walls this time received at the Chester Penitentiary from the United States District Court at Springfield for a term of two years. Dave English is quite a crook in his own way, though not standing in the front rank of criminals, and his has been a checked career since ar- riving at the age of manhood. His first offense had a tinge of romance init,a girl,a horse and an irate father figuring in it. Over in Mis- souri, about 1879, Dave fell in love with a country maiden, and the af- fection was reciprocated. He was a good looker, a dashing sort of a fel- low, but a cruel parent objected and forbade the marriage,and the would be groom was not permitted to come on the premises. But on an event- ful night Dave hied himself to the home of his affianced, and, in addi- tion to carrying off the girl, a horse belonging to the old gentleman was saddled, and, riding double, the pair proceeded to a neighboring town, and were made man and wife. Their flight was discovered, but in place ot following them upand giving them his blessing and the horse, the father got outa warrant for Dave for horse stealing, threw him into prison and landed him in the Jeffer- son City Penitentiary for a term of two years,his wife securing a divorce at the next term of court. Dave English was next heard of in Jersey county, Ill., in April, 1883, where he broke into a house to get some salt and matches with which to prepare a feast from a chicken which he had purloined. He spent eleven months and one day in the Penitentiary here as an atonement for this offeuse. After leaving the prison he enlisted in the regular army, but it is said that he did not finish his term of enlistment. The story goes that when he went east with his regiment his record became known, and that combined with gen- eral cussedness, caused him to be drummed out—dishonorably dis- charged. English returned to Illinois and married again, settling on Macoupin Island, in Green County, where he spent a short time in the county jail for stealing a hog. From Greene ~-®ounty he again drifted into Jersey county, where in the winter of 1889, he burglarized the house of his aunt ~-net proceeds of the robbery, 50c —and was sentenced to the peniten- tiary here for five years. He was discharged on Christmas day, 1893. During his last term of penal ser- vitude Dave English professed re- ligion and showed signs of reforma- tion. On his return to Jersey coun- ty he began to preach, andas an evangelist his work was phenomenal. With a gifted flow of language,earn- est and forcible, he drew crowds in Greene, Pike, Calhoun— ersohere he went he drew crowds " by the thousands and made converts © hundreds, and he was a Me cosiead rival in Christian work to Sam Jones. But he went wrong —he fell in love with another man’s wife. She forgot her marriage vows. he forgot his duty. They fell and eloped together in askiff down the issiesippi. vaio aoe turned up at Alton last winter. seeking a night’s shelter at the police statioa—broke, dirty and forlorn, claiming to have been rob bed of skiff, clothing, woman and eyerything. Having laid down Bible and hymn book, he went to burglar izing again. Aided by pals,he went through the post Offices at Grafton, Rosedale and Newbern. His arrest resulted, he peached on his pals and was let off with a light sentence of He is now ee in at the prison, with leis. ~ sence his working hours to review his past and again repent of the errer of his ways. | gan, jit |mic disturbance wa STATES SHAKEN.

Son of A Millionaire St. Joseph, Mo, Oct. 31.—Ix a cheap pine box less than two feet underground, lies the body of a young man in the little cemetery at Weston. Last night its covering of earth was removed and the body identified as that of Harry J Hugueley, the only son of millionare H. W. Hugueley, a wholesale liquor dealer at Boston, Mass. He was killed Sunday night at Newmarket, south of St. Joseph, by Dr. James Hall, who was awakened by burglars and who discharged the contents of a double barrelled shot gun at one of them. The man drop- ped dead in his tracks but two pals escaped. No one came to claim the body and it was buried in the potter field. A Kansas City detective seeing a published description of the body, had the grave opened and says he 1s confident he is young Hugueley, whom he recently saw St. Louis, but who was known by the officer in 1892, when convicted in forgery at Dallas, Tex. Young Hugueley was disowned by his father but he sent him occasional remittances. Serious Joke. Terrell, Texas, Oct. 51.—As Mr. Brazell, who lives at Toloso, return- ed home: late Thursday night, a neighbor girl put ona “false-face” and stuck her head in one of the windows to Mr. Brazell’s house. This alarmed Mrs. Brazell, who grabbed a hatchet and threw it at the girl. The girl fled, and the Brazell’s raised an outcry, which was heard by N A. Poe, who ran to the scene of dis turbance. Upon Poe's arrival he} found the door shut and, after hear | ing the screaming within, burst open the door and ran in to learn the trouble. Mrs. Brazell thought he was the supposed robber and she again threw the hatchet. It hit its | aim, splitting Poe's cheek in a} frightful manner and cutting out | three of his jaw teeth | This is the day of anti-this and anti that, but what people need most nowadays is the anti-bilious medicine, Simmons Liver Regulator, the King of Liver Medicines, and Better than Pills. “I have used no other antibilious remedy for six years and know from experience that for ladies < ae ipated habit nothing equals it."—Laura V.

In other words, under Judge Phillips’ ruling, if a person sends a messenger to the postoffice for mail and the messen- ger steal the same the government will prosecute him. Under Judge Adams’ ruling, the government would have no jurisdiction. What- ever may be a proper construction of the law on the subject, it will oc- eur to people who are not lawyers that Judge Philips’ ruling affords the greatest protection to mail mat- ter and under it many a thief may be punished who would otherwise gofree.

The New York Sun claims to have discoyered the true reason why American heiresses so generally marry bankrupt European nobles. It is not because the youug men of the United States are considered un- worthy of these heiress, says the Sun, but because they prefer to mar- ry girls without vast fortunes. The Sun fsays that if an heiress and a poor young girl are equally good looking and amiable the ayerage American will pick the poor girl every time. No doubt this is true, although it remained for the Sun to discover the fact. Hereafter the press sbould uot be so severe in flame.
