Waukce Junction waa kidnaped yesterday
by a notorious character of this vicinity
named Johnson and an armed posse Is after
him, hoping to rescue hla victim. If he

because the community is stirred as it
never was before. No details of the case
are known. Butler came to town this
morning and said Johnson had kidnaped his
daughter and that he wanted help to go
after her. The alarm spread quickly and
a group of twenty men started out, armed
to the teeth. Butler himself Is with the
party stid If Johnson la located trouble Is
expected. The authorities are also search
ing for Johnson. .If they find him they will
probably spirit him away to an adjoining
county for safe keeping, because the people
are In an ugly mood.

WASHINGTON, May 3. Colombia and
VenetUela are worse estranged than ever
before as result of the refusal of Vice
President Gomes of Venexuela. to receive
Dr. Herrera, the minister plenipotentiary,
who went to Csracss three weeks sgo to
perfect a treaty with Venexuela for the
governments concerning the navigation of
rivers flowing through the two countries
and concerning commerce passing over the
common boundaries.
War la being freely talked In South
American diplomatic circles. The Insult
to Colombia I regarded by some of the
diplomats here as on it cannot well
overlook, especially since this Is the second
time the Castro government has refused
to receive a representative of Colombia.
Just a year ago Lucas Caballero went
from Colombia to Caracas. There were
repeated delays as to his reception snd.
finally, th Venexuela government refused
to recognise him officially. At that time
Prealdent Castro Insisted that Colombia
had failed to expel Venexuela political
refugees, but, the excuse waa not regarded
as a valid one by Colombia.
Venesnela'e Pernllar Attitude.
Later an envoy from Colombia went to
Venexuela and last December protocols
were signed for a resumption of diplomatic
relatione between the two countries and
for the framing of a treaty settling the
navigation and frontier questions. In ac
cordance with these protocols Dr. Herrera
wss sent to Caracss to perfect th treaty.
Dispatches from Mr. Russell, the Ameri
can minister In Venexuela, says that Vice
President Gomes refused to receive Dr.
Herrera officially and ssld It would not
be possible to do so until the treaty had
been perfected Latin-American diplomats
ar at loss to know just how the Castro
government expected the treaty to be per
fected and aigned If the Venauelaua re.
fused to receive ihe man empowered to
act for Colombia and ther la much dis
cussion of the unusual situation.
Mr. Mendosa, the Colombian minister,
Is In New York where he has been for
several weeks and the legation here has
had no advices concerning the sudden
break ln what seemed to be the friendly
relations between Colombia and Venexuela.
It Is through the good offices of the Ameri
