Colonel H , F. Albors , secretary of the Cao-
ital Loan and Investment company , has hied
himself to parts unknown ,
Ho did not , bo far as can , bo learned , tell
any ono that bo contcmplatod such a stop
In fact It is not Unown when ho wont , but it
is conjectured that ho is on route lo Now
York , where ho resided at ono time As yet
no charge of criminality ponds against Mr
Albers , but it Is stated that ho certainly
fenrud the result of the Investigation of the
company's books now bolng made Persons
in position to know state that ho lias loft the
city never to return , and that ho is too slick
to bo captured
Benders of Tug Beb are familiar with tbo
particulars of tbo collapse ot the company
soma two woelcs ago Albors was not only
the secretary , but practically the treasurer
and business manager of the concern Ho
oamo hero u stranger , with between $100 aud
200 , und succeeded in organizing tbo coin
pauy designated , backed by soma of the load
ing business monof the city Tlio books show
that the company in Its oxlstouco of a little
over six months rccoiyed from all sources
the sum of $ • - ' 3,500 , and that loans to tbo
amount of $1,000 , secured by mortgages , bad
been tnado Twenty-Ova hundred dollars
bad been borrowoa from a gentleman In
Tennessee , to whom the mortgages had been
hypothecated , and so far as can bo discov
ered , tbo rest of the inonoy has all gene for
expenses It appears that a great many ot
tbo Items o ( expense are not particularized ,
but sot down under the general head of ex
penses The item tor postage stamps shows
that $179 wcro expended in six months
This assorts that nearly or qulto 100 loiters
vvero sent out by the socrotury each day , in
dicating that ho earned his salary at least
, Stockholders are deeply concerned regard
ing his absence Ills presouco Is neoessary
in the suits btougbt against thom , and bo
should bo able to explain bis doings as an of
ficial Tbo opinion Is openly expressed
today that Albors got away with at least

A famous duel was fought in Ken
tucky in 1848. Bill Bowman was a noted
preacher who lived near Millorsburg
Ho was a typical Kentuckian tail ,
angular and muscular LikoSam Jones ,
ho ulw.iys said what ho thought In the
midst of a roVlval mooting a well known
desperado walked Into the church and
began making a disturbance With
oyea Hashing with indignation Bill
Bowman arose and publicly reproved
the desnerndo , who at once retired from
the church The nuxt morning the
desperado sent a challenge to Bowman
to fight him a duel Bowman accepted
the challenge nnd there wns no four
column newspaper correspondence , no
railroad trips to nn adjoining Btato ,
nothing but two little notes ono a
challenge and the ether on acceptance
and then all was ready for the light
The town was torrlbly oxcltod ,
for such a thing ns a
preacher lighting a duel baa never
boon heard of before Old Bill Bowman
buing the ohallcngod man , bad the
choice of weapons Ho selected a half
bushel of Irish potatoes as big as his
fist for onch man , aud stipulated that
ills opponent must stand fifteen paces
dibti'.nt add only ono potato at a time to
bo taken from the measure The town
was wild with delight , for every ono
know that Bill Bowmau could throw
with his long muscular arms as straight
and almost as swift us it rifle could send
a bullet singing toward the target
The desperado wns furious at bolng
thus freshly insulted , und made an in
dignant protest against such a fight ;
but Bill Bowmau insisted that lie was
the challenged man , nnd had a right to
choose his own weapons , mid thrcatonod
todonouncc the desperado as u coward
if ho fplled to como to time As there
was no way out of tbo box but to light ,
the desperado IIIally ) consented to meet
the pronrhor Tlio light took place on
the outskirts of the town Everybody
in .Millorsburg was present to see the
fun The seconds arranged the two mon
in position , by the side of each being a
half-bushel measure tilled with largo
Irish potatoes as hard as a brick Bill
Bowman throw the first potato Jt
struck his opponent a control shot and
How into a thousand pieces A yell ot
dolicrht wont up from the crowd , which
rattled the desperado , and his potato
flow wide ot the tall , bony preacher
Bill Bowmau watched his chunco , and
every time hia opponent steeped for a
potato another ono hit in the side , leav
ing n , Wei spot on his clothes , aud then
Bcattocing itself to tbo winds of hcuvon
Old Bill hit the desperado about Ilvo
timqs , und thou the sixth potato struck
him in the short ribs , knocking the
wind completely out of him and boubling
him up on the grass , The people were
almost crazy with laughter , but Bill
Bowman looked ns sober as it bo had
just finished preaching a funeral ser
mon The desperado was tftkon home
und put to bed , und there ho staid for
morothun a week before ho recovered

Edwards went off without carrying out
his design Mra Dunn then sat down
and wrote a letter to Governor Bucknor ,
setting forth nil the facts in the case ,
and requested him to pardon her dog
Governor Bucknor replied in a very
sympathetic letter , stating bis regret
at the animosity of the two families , but
dcclinod to issue a pardon for the dog
for lack of jurisdiction in the case , and
hoped that if her dog was innocent ho
would come clear
Yesterday morning the case of
Swaync vs Benson ( clerk ) again came
before Lord Penzanco , the dean of
Arches , says the London Daily News
The facts of the case wore the respond
ents , the Rev Poroy Gcorgo Benson ,
vicar of Hoe , had in May , 1888 , refused
to administer the sacromont of the holy
communion to ono of his pariBhonors ,
Mrs Swnyno Mrs Swayno was a mem
ber of the Church of England , baptized ,
confirmed and married according to its
ceremonies
The nllcgedground of the refusal was
that Mrs Swayno was in tha habit of at
tending a Wesleyan plnco of worship
At the instance of Mr.Swu.yno proceed
ings under the Church Discipline act
wcro accordingly commenced againBt
the respondent A commlslon was duly
nppointed by the Lord Bishop of Roch
ester to inquire into the charge The
offence was alleged to bo ono against
the Statute 1 , Edward VI , 1. The
commission unanimously reported
that there was good grounds
for instituting further procoodlngs
Subsequently the respondent wrote a
letter , which was published on Feb
ruary 0 last in the Koohestor and
Chatham Journal , entitled Schism at
Hoe , " which letter contained the fol
lowing statoraopt : "I am prepared to
receive Mrs Swayno to holy communion
any day on condition that she acknowl
edges her error and promises amend
ment But 1 flrmly hollovo that willful
schism ( I am not now considering the
many cases where it is unintentional ) is
a sin none the lojs sinful because spir
itual , ' and not carnal ' * * * It is
worse than idle nonsense to pretend
thnt schism and its mischievous fruits
are something quito invisible , intangi-
bio or iudollnabio They are as open
and notorious1 us the fruits of any
fleshly sin , gross us a mountain , open ,
palpable ' And nothing will inducomo
with my eyes open to glvo the holy com
munion to ono who expresses no sorrow
for these sins and gives no promise of
abandoning them "
Lord Pen/anoo , in delivering judg
ment , said that the court looked to the
respondent for an answer to the facts
which had boon fully proved before his
lordship , but tbo respondent had not
appeared , and bad loft the court with
out any explanation of his conduct
Mrs Swayno had a right to bo admitted
to tbo sacrament , and the refusal by tbo
respondent of that aot was an offense
against the ecclesiastical law
The order would bo that the respon
dent bo suspended ab ofliclu ot a bonon
flclo for ono year , and pay the cost ot
the proceedings The order would not ,
however , preclude the court from con
Bldoring any application that the
respondent might make , If bo shouldin
the Interval , admit Mrs Swayno to tbo
sacrament
The unfortunate Mr Hill in this city
is not the first man who has lived with
