He had no opposition in the primary election in the district. His republican oppo- nent is W. M.

The primary to select delegates to the state convention to be held April 21 took place Saturday. Judge J. H. D. Stevens, of St. Louis,chairman of the national exec- utive committee, A. P. A., announces that the organization will attempt to defeat the nomination of Major Me Kinley in the St. Louis convention, and if nominated the order will not support him. echianeeeesennemnmeenesonn John Tyler Cooper, grandson of ex-president Tyler has been indicted by the grand jury at Atlanta,Georgia, for the embezzlement of county funds. The shortage is estimated to be about $5,000. Cooper had moved to Costa Rica and learning of the charge against him came back to make his shortage good. Gen. Grosvenor, in his weekly estimates, says McKinley will go republican misrule. Mr. Clarke is one of the most polished orators in the state and no doubt lost his seat in congress by being absent cam paigning in this and other states. The president has appointed Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virgina, to be con sul general of the United States at Havana, Cuba, vice R. O. Williams, resigned. Gen. Lee Is a nephew of the late Gen. Robt. E Lee. He was major general of confederate cavalry during the war, is also an-exgover- nor of Virginia, at present is collec- tor of internal revenue for the Lynchburg, Va, district. Chauncey M. Depew, the after dinner republican orator, says New York is still a “pivatal” state The above is certainly a bold assertion to make for a man of Mr. Depew’s standing in the republican party. The Globe-Democrat, a paper which usually claims the whole hog before the election, in criticising Mr. Depew acknowledges that owing to the pas- sage, of the obnoxious Raines act the state will be close. THE TWO-THIRDS RULE. The silver leaders make the claim that they will have six hundred del- egates in the national democratic} convention, and itis now pretty gen-| erally conceded that they will be 1n| the majority. This is sufticient to/| adopt the platform, but not enough | to nominate a candidate, if the long | established two thirds rule governs. But the convention,after it conyenes, is the supreme power and can adopt such rules of guidance as it sees fit. | The two-thirds majority bas long | been obnoxious toa large number of | democrats and iu the last national | convention there was strong talk of abolishing it. and open threats were | made by the Cleveland forces to abol | ish it and adopt the majority rule to! nominate; and this undoubtedly | | would have been done if Mr. Hill's forces had succeeded in breaking | | | into the St. Louis convention with 315 staying delegates.

George Made Good His Escape and Is Fleeing for Hts Life From the Pursuing Officers. Carroliton, Mo, April 11.—At about $:30 tonight the Taylor brothers, George and William P.. escaped from the Carrollton Jail by cutting through the cell and roof of the jail and chmbing down some hose which was in the jail. Wm. P. Taylor was captured while in the jail yard. cE tured. He is supposed to have gone | in a western direction. The latest development in the} career of the Taylor brothers adds} anotber sensation to a case which} has been profuse in startling inci- dents. Only a few days ago the Su- preme Court affirmed their death sentences for the murder of the Meeks family. The elder brother, W. P. Taylor, is much the brainier man of the two. His sinister features ure his eyes, which are small, brown and havea crafty, shifty look that makes one uncomfortable. In his movements he is alertness itself, and as acon versationalist he is, when he chooses, exceedingly entertaining Strangers | naturally take to him on sight. Five years ago he was one of the most popular and promising youug men in Sullivan County. Fine look- ing, well-educated, the local attorney of the great Chicago, Burlington &} Quincey Railroad, with a good law practice besides, he seemed to have | everything his own way with the} world. The climax of his good for- | tune was reached wheu he married | the pretty daughter of Morgan Leonard, owner of the Browning Bank and one of the wealthiest men | in all that seetion of the State. Peop'e couldn't do enough for the young «in. He was sent to repre sent bi. district in the Legislature, was it vited to address public meet- ings avd became a general authority throughout the country side. Then he became cashier of his father in- law's bank, and then he fell He and his brother George were implicated in a swindling check transaction, amounting to $2,000, by which the bank at Kirksyille was Gone out ef that sum of money. Their indictment, trial and convie- tion followed in rapid succession, and the brothers were sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. Both got out on an order for a new trial, which has not yet been held. After this all sorts of ugly rumors got abroad about the Taylor boys, as they were called. Things which before had been inexplicable were now easily accounted for by the theory that they bad had a hand in them. Four months after Warren McCullough, a leading citizen of Milan, bad a car load of cattle stolen from his farm. Chance brought a shower and enabled him to trace the thieves to where the stock had been shipped away, and then it was an easy matter to find the shipper Iti was Gus Mecks, the murdered man. Meeks’ trial resulted in quick con viction, and he went to the peniten tiar After a short confinement he disclosed to the State’s Attorney a most remarkable story. He claimed that he was not alone in the crime for which he was being punished, but was merely the agent of a regu | organized band of robbers, | who, from a headquarters at Brown- ing, had nned to lay tribute on EART DISEASE, tixe many other ailments when they have taken hold of the system, never gets better of its own accord, but Constantly grows worse. There are thousands who know they have a defective heart, but will not admit the fact. They don't want their friends to worry. and Don’t jow what to take for it, as they have been told time and again that heart disease was incurable. Such was the case of M las Farley of Dyesville, Ohio who writes June 19, 1994, as follows: “I had heart disease for 23 years, my heart hurting me almost continually. The first 15 years I doctored all the time, trying several physicians and remedies, until my last doctor told meit wasonlya question of time as I covld not be cured.

T. gang was. Taylor, ably seconded by his brother | George. Agreeing to turn State’s evidence, he was pardoned by the Governor, aud the case was in course of prepa ration when the Meeks family was murdered. It is now evident that the Taylors had induced Meeks to agreesto leave the county and not appear against them. He thought they were tak- ing him toa railway station for the purpose of sending himself and fam- ily away without the knowledge of the public. But they had deterrin- ed to kill him. The finding of the dead bodies of Meeks and his family on the Taylor brothers’ farm shocked the come munity. The brothers disappeared and at once they were suspected. They were caught and their first trial re- sulted ina hung jury. At the sec- ond trial they were convicted and sentenced to death. It behooves every citizen in city, town and country to keep posted on the stirring events that will occur in this country and in the Old World within the next nine months. The results will affect all, personally, di- rectly or indirectly. This nation is on the eve of the most exciting pres idential campaign in ite history, Eu ropean politics are in a very compli cated state, and scientists are apply ing their discoveries to many lines that will produce startlingly new things. To keep abreast with the world one should read, in addition to tbe local or county paper, a live metro- politan newspaper, such as The Twice-a Week Republic of St. Louis. It is the most progressive journal in the United States, and in each issue it gives the latest political news of parties in the field,the latest general news of the world and many valuable special features besides This model | newspaper is delivered twice a week by mail for only Sla_ year, or less | than one cent a copy.
