Attempt to Shoot Guiteau.
A second attempt was made to shoot
Guiteau on Saturday, while he was
conveyed fro m the court room to jail.
The occurrence is detailed by police
officer W. J. Edelin, who has been de
tailed to accompany Guiteau from and
to the jail. Officer Edelin says they
left the court house about 2.40 p. m.
and moved at the usual pace down D.
street. He noticed no one near the van
until opposite the Ilolmes house, I),
street and New Jersey avenue. Here
was a man on horseback. He noticed
the horseman, because he had seen his
face in the court room and also silting
ou his horse near the City Hall. Rid
ing near the van, the stranger seemed
anxious to get a look at the prisoner,
but Edelin said to him: "There's noth
ing in there for you to see." With
this the horseman turned about and
Edsliu did not see hira again until ou
First street, near East Capitol street.
There he rode up from behind, and as
the van turned into E ist Capitol street,
lie was on his left. Dropping behind
he peered through the rear grating, and
evidently satisfying himself as to the
position of the occupant of the van,
pushed his horse quickly to the left of
the van. From this point, and before
the officer could discover that he had a
pistol,he tired a shot through the side of
the vehicle and then wheeled suddenly
back toward First street. Edelin fired
at him. Without waiting to inquire
after the condition of the prisoner, the
van was started in pursuit of the horse
mau, but time wasiiost in turning over
the car tracks on East Capitol street,
and the fugitive had too good a start.
The van pursued as far as K street,
doivu which the horseman fied, but he
was soon lost to sight.
When Guiteau was asked whether he
was hurt he only caught hold of his
Jeft arm and was thus taken to his cell.
There a reporter found him washing,
having just changed his shirt. There
were two holes in the left sleeve of his
coat, below the elbow, but neither the
sleeve of his shirt nor that of his un
dershirt were injured. Cutting away
the sleeve of the latter it was found
that the concussion from the ball, as
it passed through the coat sleeve, had
brought blood to the surface of the arm
just below the elbow, but there was no
rupture of the skin. Dr. McWilliams,
the assistant jail physician, directed
applications of ice, and in a tew mo
ments the prisoner had forgotten to at
tend to the injured limb.
A man that goes by the name of Bill
Jones was arrested in the evening, as
the fellow who shot at Guiteau, but
when !ofiieer Edelin was bronght to
identify him he said to the officers and
reporters: "Gentlemen, that is not
the man. [ should know the man a
mong a million. I not only fail to
identify this man Jones as the man,
but I could swear thathe is not the
jnan.'V
It is to be hoped for the honor of the
country that all attempts to kill
Guileau will fail. Let the miserable
wretch have a fair trial, and if found
guilty as no doubt he will he should
be hung under the law.

The Assassin's Trial.
The trial of Guiteau, the assassin of
President Gar held , is now in progress
at Washington. Much interest is
shown over it, not only in Washington
but throughout the entire country.
The court room where the trial is held
is daily crowded to its utmost capacity.
There is a morbid curiosity to see the
wicked man who assassinated the
lamented President. Guiteau's strange
conduct during the tiial thus far has
forfeited what little sympathy there
may have been for him. His hound
less egotism anil vanity, his violent an"
ger,exceed, if possible,his utter depravi
ty and wickedness. He flies into tits Of
rage, scolds the witnesses, quarrels with
his lawyers and insults the judge
Seveial times did Judge Cox threaten
to remove him for his unruly conduct
and conduct the trial in his absence,
but this always co\\s him and lie be~
comes alittle more decent for a time
He plays the crazy man to perfection
but tho general belief is that he i 3
more wicked th an insane. In fact he
is beginning to bo considered a prodigy
of depravity—a very (lend incarnate.
An exchange gives tie hgal test of
insanity when it is made a plea of de
fense in cri mined prosecutions. If
these few plain rules are the law on the
question it would not seem difficult to
determine when a criminal is lojalbj in
sane and not accountable for his acts-
Their an lication in Gateau's case will
clearly lead to the conclusion that his
insanity Is simply a sham. The tests
are these: Did the accuse d know the na
ture of his uct? Did he know the act to be
criminal? Did he act under a delusion as
to some facts which, supp*)siny the fact to
exist, would justify the act?
THROUGHOUT the South and the
Southwest evidences multiply that
those sections are rapidly recovering
from the results of "the late unpleas
entness" and bid fair, before many
years to take their place among the fore
most of the agricultural and manufact
uring portions of America. This is es
pecially true of Georgia and Texas,
both of which States have been the
recipients of a large and valuable em
igration that represents some of the
working elements of the Old World.
Great llelds are being opened and cul
tivated according to the best methods*
capital is p our nig in at a steady pace,
factories are erected, and tho people
are becoming i independent, to a certain
extent, of the rest of mankind. It is
this utilization of its own inherent
wealth that will quickly make the
South great, and the North v. ill not
begrudge an iota in the race for the
supFemest prosperity. A rich South
means a wealthy North, for it is in the
nature of things that we of this sec
tion of the count ry must participate in
the common growth and derive our
share of all the blessings that may flow
into the newly-made coffers.— Ex.
Tlie Mijflinb urg Telegraph suggests
that the republican party in Penn
sylvania had bettei abolish the conven
tion system of nominating candidates,
on the score of economy. It would be
much cheaper no doubt just to let the
Camerons appoint our state and other
I officers outright and swear them
in without the expensive and useless
farce of nomination and election.
The Lcuisburg Chronicle serves the
following brief but pointed notice on
some ot the Stahvarts-Boss-Machine
papers to stop abusing the Independ
ents, lest they might be sorry for it.
We hope the 50,000 will take fno more
"suss" from the Bosses but shake off
the galling Cameron yoke entirely:
Kome of the hot-headed Republican paper*,
led by the Harrisburg Telegraph, have adopt
ed a course well calculated to drive the Inde
pendent voters outside of the Republican camp
to return no more. This thing of tantalizing,
despising, and denouncing over 59.000 as in
telligent voters as the State ever produced,
may sound musical to Stalwart ears, but the
effect may be sad y felt next fall. When peo
ple act conscientiously in a cause which they
deem just and necessary, they are In 110 humor
to calmly aud silently gulp the biting irony of
a victorious rival. If the Stalwarts really value
their room more than their company, so be it.
Rut we give what we deem consistent warn- I
ihg: If these 50,000 leave the Republican ;
camp, they will not go alone; each man will
take his neighbor; and 100,000 votes out of the
Republican party will leave it in a deplorable
condition. Better stop cursing this people, un
til you are sure that they desere it.
A FIGHT WITH AN EAGLE.
Frustrating- the Bold Attempt of a
Bird to Carry off a Boy.
From the Monroe (Ga.) Advertiser.
On last Thursday morning John
Abernathy brought home a monster
eagle into town, which lie had killed
on his place, four miles from Forsyth,
the day previous. He had gone to a
field to work, carrying his little son,
two aud a half years of age, with hira.
It happened that he had his shotgun in
his hands, thinking that he would
need it to kill game. Suddenly he heard
a sound in the air, which he describes
as equal to the roaring of the wind,
and saw a large shadow on the ground.
Looking up he saw a huge bird swoop
ing down upon his son. As quick as
possible he raised his gun and fired and
was fortunate enough to bring the
eagle to the ground, lie picked him
up and started homeward, carrying the
biid on his shoulder. Suddenly the
eagle buried his talons on his rigl t arm
and seized his left with his beak. Mr.
Abernathy called for help, and some |
neighbors, four in number, came to
his assistance. It required their uni
ted effort to release the bird from bis
lirm hold. When relieved he found
that his arm was badly laeetated, the
flesh being torn from several places.
The beak was sunk to the bone in the
light band. The eagle measured seven
feet four inches from tip to tip and
weighed seventeen and one-half pound*
He was never seen in the neighborhood
before, and it is probable he strayed
from the coast. Mr. Abernathy says
his strength was prodigious, lie would
have readily carried off the little boy
had it not been that his father was
fortunately armed with a gun.
JERKED FROM JUSTICE.
A Wisconsin Outlaw Lassood in
Court and Dragged Out and
Hanged.
ST. PAUL, Minn., November 10.—A
special to the Globe from Durand,
Wis., gives the particulars of the
lynching of Ed. Williams, one of the
murderers of the Coleman brothers, lie
was caught in Hall county, Neb., last.
Saturday and conveyed to Durand,
where he arrived yesterday. In court
this afternoon he pleaded not guilty to
the charge of murder. The courtroom
was crowded and seveiairmen were out
side. Williams had scarcely entered
his plea and asked for time to procure
witnesses when a noose was thrown
oyer his neck. Those inside the court,
room shoved him to a window, while
those outside pulled the rope and ho
was dragged some forty rods to a tree
and hanged until he was dead.
