That Is the punishment which the pcoplo
of Scdalla domain ! shall ho moled out to n
nesro outlaw who last nlfiht startled the
town with n series of extraordinary crimes.
Within two hours ho committed n criminal
assault , two highway robberies and bur
glaries , and for these crimes the people do-
rnand ho slmll bo ulirnud nt the stake , and If
ho Is caught while the fever of oxcltotnent is
still at Its height the citizens will enforce
their demand.
About 10 o'clock last ovcnlui ; a negro , his
face concealed behind n white mask , entered
the house of Mrs. Mary Moore , n widow
aged 05 years , choked her almost Into uncon-
tciousnoss , stolen few valuables and es
caped. .
A little later bo hold un P. H. Buckley and
Miss Mattle Gilkcr. whom Buckley was ac
companying to her homo. When abreast of
the couple the negro ordered them to hold up
their hands. Miss Oilkor Hod In ono direc
tion while Bucxloy Hod in another. The
nocro pursued the woman , throw ono arm
around her nock and with the butt end of his
revolver struck her on the head , foiling her
to the ground. Buckley recovered himself
and ran to his companion's assistance.
Other pedestrians appeared at that moment
and the negro escaped.
Ills Crowning Act of Vllhilny.
A half an hour later the desperado com
mitted the crownlntr act of his night's vil
lainy. It was U o'clockvhon Mr. nnd Mrs.
Charles Taj lor started homo from the house
of H. C. Clark , the superintendent of the
Missouri Pacillo railway , where they had
bcon attending an entertainment. On Broad
way , in front of the residence of O. A.
Crandall , they were confronted by the negro
highwayman , who hold a dirk In ono baud
nnd a revolver In the other.
"Hold up your hands 1" commanded the
highwayman.
Mr. Taylor obeyed the injunction , and the
thief wont through his pockets , securing
about ? 15 in gold nnd stiver coin ,
Mrs. Taylor , while her husband was being
searched , slipped a diamond ring from her
hnnd nnd throw It over Mr. Crnndall's fence
into the yard and hid n diamond breastpin m
tbo waist of her dress. She had no sooner
accomplished the concealment of the ring
when James Hartshorn passed along the
street and the footpad stepped aside to allow
the pedestrian to pass.
Hartshorn IOOK in thesituation at u glance.
Ho made no remarks , but turned down an
other stioot , and bastonincr down town gave
the 11 rat alarm of the robbery.
After securing all the booty ho could ilnd
In Mr. Taylor's possession , the hlgnwayman
turned his attention to Mrs. Taylor and took
'
a pair of diamond earrincs from'her cars.
Hound Her Husband Hand unit root.
While the robber was busy searching Mrs.
Taylor her husband took advantage of the
opportunity and closely scanned him , so that
idcntlilcallon will bo an easy matter.
Having secured all the valuables of his
victims ho stopped behind them , and with
drawn revolver marched them to a lonely
spot in the vicinity of the old railway hospi
tal. There bo toolc from his pocket a rope ,
and with it bound Mr. Tavlor band and foot ,
and soizinc tbo trembling wife led her away.
Within hearing of Mr. Taylor a desperate
struggle took place between Mrs. Tavlor and
the negro. The brute's strength made him
master , and having accomplished bis puruoso
'
ho brought Mrs. Tu.vlor back to tbo p'laco
where her husband was bound.
The negro then cut with his dirk tbo cords
that hold the husband captive , and with
oaths commanded tbo couple to go to tbolr
homo. They immediately compiled. Upon
arriving , Dr. Evans was summoned to attend
Mrs. Taylor. She Is not dangerously injured.
In the meantime young Hartshorn baa
given tbo alarm , but the police were unable
to ilnd any trace of the desperado. The
search has been kept up all day , but uo clew
has been obtained.
A mass mcotlng was bold nt the opera
bouse this morning und f 1,500 wassuDacrlbud
as a reward for the capture of the negro.
Tbe whole country 'round about is aroused ,
as it has not bcon in years. Should the negro
bo captured no mercy will bo shown him.
There Is no talk of haugincr. The crv Is :
"Burn him at tbostako ! A little of Toxar-
kana is needed hero. "

Itetniycd Through n Woman.
John Larson , alias James Gray , Is a pris
oner at the city jail , where ho is bold as a
fugitive from justice. Larsen Is said to bo a
crook of considerable distinction on his
native heath , but like many others before
him bis infatuation for a woman led to his
undoing and betrayed him into the clutches
of the law.
Larson's latest escapade was nt Stroms-
burg , Neb. , where ho bas bcon employed on
a farm during the winter. Ho conceived a
violent passion for the pretty daughter of his
employer , and this was the beginning ot his
present trouble. Ho was not just the sort of
n son-in-law the old farmer wanted , so tbo
latter dismissed him without a character.
Larson told the young lady tbat ho was
going to South Omaha and bogged her to
writoto him here , addressing the letter to
James Uray.
Ho waited long enough before leaving
tilrouisburg , however , to brcuk Into the farm
house and appropriate what valuables vvoro
in sight. Then the young woman thought of
tbo address bo bad glvon her and u letter was
addressed to James Uray , South Omaha.
X arsen blindly confident In the loyalty of his
inamorata , called for tbo letter yesterday.
But , unfortunately for him , another letter
bad coma to the South Omaha authorities at
the same tlmo asking thorn to arrest the man
who should call for a loiter addressed to
James Gray. When Larson called for the
letter Postmaster Glasgow promptly called
In Onieor Montague , who ulacod Larson
under arrest. Ho will bo held until the
authorities at tStroinsburg can bo hoard
from.

The Union I'ncltlo conductors nnil brnho-
mon hnvo won a substantial victory. Their
r.roiosltlon for computing ovortlmo bos boon
accepted ,
The two grievance committees , each rop-
rcsoutcd by four members nnil a , grand of
ficer , bnd another conference yesterday
afternoon with Assistant Ucnoral Manager
Dickinson. It lasted for tbroo hours , but
half of tbat tlmo was consumed by consulta
tions between Mr. Dickinson and General
Manager Clark.
As a result of this meeting the Union Pa-
clflo bas agreed to grant the demand that
overtime bo computed by the rules that gov
ern in the , cano of engineers nnu firemen.
Tuts was the main point at Issue , and It Is
now bollovod that all differences will bo set
tled amlcablv. A creat many grievances of
minor Importance , many of thorn nlToctliig
only slnglo districts and some only single
runs , remain to bo adjusted , but there prom
ises to bo no great cllniculty In reaching an
agreement on thoso. They will bo taken up
at another conference this morning ,
What the Mon Hn\o Unlncil.
Mr. Dickinson estimated that the change
lu tbe manner of computing overtime would
increase the operating expenses well on to
$100,000 a year. The employes assort that
that Is an outsldo figure bused on past ox-
noricnco , and they thin * the company will
also reduce It considerably by moving trains
with more regularity and dispatch.
General Manager Clark Is quoted as sayIng -
Ing that tie could bettor afford to grant the
concession than lot the conductors and brakemen -
men go borne dissatisfied , because It might
lead to carelessness lu their handling of
trains.
The point gained by tbo tralnmon may bo
best explained by an Illustration. Suppose a
division 150 miles long and a train scheduled
to cover it In eight hours. In the case of tbo
engineer n margin of thirty minutes Is al
lowed for delays , but If tbo train
Is on the run beyond the olght
hours and a balf ho begins to
draw ovortlmo. In the case of the trainmen
ton miles are used as the equivalent of an
hour's time , and they nro not allowed over
time until the truin has bcon out fifteen
hours. The engineers and firemen secured
their favorable rules live years a o , and the
trainmen have been complaining of the In
justice over since.
