SW We have received the Twenty-
Fourth Annual Announcement of the Wo
man's Medical College of Pennsylvania for
1573-4. It makes a handsome exhibit.—
The College is certainly in a flourishing
condition, and its Faculty contain a num
ber of eminent names.
um. The public debt suit:went for May
shows a reduction of $3,525,282.50 during
the month, and $7,416,827.07 since the
first of March. At this rate we will pay
off in the neighborhood of $50,000,000 of
the National debt during the year. This
was the amount contemplated by the va
rious revenue bills.
fier In sonic of the districts candidates
for delegatei are already looming up. This
is a trick of the League. It will try to
commit honest voters to some of its tools
early. It is' an old dodge. Promise no
man until the candidatas are all presented.
and then vote for no man who has not ire
'listed the League honestly.
eft. Gen. Garfield has sent us a copy
of his "Review of the transactions of the
Credit Mobilier Company." As the Gen
eral determined to punish the country
press, by snaking through a provision re
pealing the law admitting a free exchange
and the free circulation of county pipers,
in counties where published, we owe him
nothing and care nothing about the man
who could be guilty of such littleness. We
hope the country papers will give publicity
to his defense—over the left.
If Philadelphia can present a good man as
a Republican candidate for Supreme Judge,
let him be nominated. In fact as a Philadel
phian's term as Supreme Judge expires this
year, we are inclined to concede the nomina
tion of a candidate to take his place to the
city. This seems the fair way of regarding
this matter, if we desire to conduct our party
affairs in the spirit of brotherly love.
This is the way the State Journal puts
it. We most emphatically protest against
any such concession. Why should Philadel
phia have two judges while the great heart
of Pennsylvania, extending from Philadel
phia to Pittsburgh and from the Maryland
line to Bradford, has none ? We want a
candidate from Central Pennsylvania], and
expect to get him.
imtl. The men who set up and supported
the Independent ticket, and who voted
for Speer in fulfilment of the bargain and
sale, are hunting up Republican candidates
to secure delegates in the interest of the
League for the approaching Republican
County Convention. That game won't
win. The parties who alienated them
selves from the Republican party. by pla
cing themselves outside of its organization
last fall, must tak6 back seats. They have
no claims above that of a Democrat. The
flimsy trick of setting up candidates to
make delegates, however, is too old to do
much harm. We advise the people to be
on their guard. Have nothing to do with
men whose records are not clean and whose
political actions have not been clearly de
fined. Touch no Leaguer.
ge l .. An act was passed at the last ses
sion of the legislature of this State which
has the appearance of being prepared for
some special case. It is in the fullowing
language :
That the stay of executions upon jadg
menta allowed by the third section of the
act of June 16, A. D., 1836, entitled "An
act relating to executions," is to be compu
ted from the return day of the writ by
which such action was commenced.
Commenting on the above, the Pitts
burgh Telegraph says the act of 1836 pro
vided that the stay of execution shall be
from the beginning of the term at which
the action was commenced. Thus, if on
the last day of the term, a suit was com
menced, the defendant, if judgment should
go against him, would have three months
upon the stay of execution, a valuable
privilege at any time, and more particu
larly so to a defendant who usually is seed
because he has not the money in hand to
pay the claim again-t him. The change
in the act insures substantial justice both
to the plaintiff and the defendant.
lOW The Cincinnati Times says : Every
body has beard of the Lexington (Mo.)
Caucasian, and its wonderful Pat. Donan,
the great blatherskite of blood-and-thun
der rebellion. Here is a set of resolutions
which he has just proposed to the Missouri
Editorial Association, in solemn conven
tion, and which were adopted after lively
debate:
Resolved by the .Missouri Editorial As
sociation-1. That a newspaper office is a
business establishment by which editors
and printers must make a living. 2. That
a man has the same right to walk into a
grocery store and order a barrel of sugar
or a sack of coffee, or into a law office and
demand a legal opinion from its occupant,
or into an undertaker's and request a col
tin without expecting to pay for their re
spective wares or services, as into a news
paper office and demand the use of its
brains and muscle and type, without a
thought of recompense. 3. That hereaf
ter all personal or political matter having
for its object the promotion of individual
fortunes or ambition, shall be treated ex
actly, as other business matter, and charg
ed at the option of publishers, as editorial
advertising. 4. That dead-beating—po
litical, personal and commercial—on the
Missouri press is "played out." 5. That
any editor cr publisher who fails to carry
out these resolutions in the letter and
spirit shall cease to be regarded as a mem
ber of this Association.
Donan has but half done his work.
There is no mention of thh- man who looks
over your exchanges for the paper from.
Demdbore , of the individual who publish
ed the Singapore Times for fourteen years,
sir, and who desires to converse with you
on the Eastern question during the busi
est hours of the day ; of the individual who
is going to spend the Bummer at a water
ing-place, and who will be very happy to
oblige you with a letter or two each week,
describing the manners and customs of the
natives, and does not care for a money
compensation—nothing but railroad pas.
sea; of the editor of the Coshocton Bird
o' Freedom, who, intent upon a "personal,"
gives you his views on the state of the
Nation generally, while your proofs are
awaiting examination; in fact,of the thou
sand and one bores of the profession, who
are a trifle worse than the "beats." - None
but editors are subject to these almost un
endurable annoyances, and none but editors,
who are schooled to trouble, could patient
ly bear them. And even they cannot al
.ways du so.

Captain Jack Caught.
End of the Alodoe IVar—Jack Surrenders
After a Persistent and Relentless Pur
suit.
LANOELL'S VALLEY, Lost River,
Oregon,. GREEN'S CAMP, May 31—Eve
ning—Via SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.
After a thorough examinaton of the Mo.
doe e.tptivea gathered in during the pres
ent scout. under C pl. Green, it has been
ascertained that the last haul netted thir
ty-four men, women and children, thirteen
of them being able-bodied warriors, sixteen
rifles of various patterns, one hundred and
thirteen cartridges, and several lean and
hungry ponies. Boston Charley and
Schonchin are anxious about the disposi
tion to be made of them. The former
murdered Dr. Thomas and the latter mu
tilated Meacham. R.stott and SAtonchin
look like desperadoes: Each carries his
character in his face. Boston is about
twenty-eight years of age, and Schouchin
fifty. The boldest warrior of the band is
Scar Faced Charley. Dr. Cabaness, of
Yreka, the contract surgeon, who slept in
their retreat last night, says of Captain
Jack that he presented a most woe-begone
appearance. The wily warrior sat upon
a rock in the centre of a little lava bed, a
few yards back of the crest of the bluff,
and seemed as lonely as his surrounding s.
He was wrapped in a faded army blankt,
and his head was buried in his hands.
His sister Mary captured at Willow Creek
the day before yesterday, talked to him,
with tears in her eyes, and asked that he
enter our camp. He was sullen and had
little to say. He did promise that he
would surrender to-day. In the night he
stole away. The !dodoes say that Jack is
insane. There is much method in his
madness. At present he is thought to be
in this neighborhood with front three to
five warriors. There are twelve Modoc
warriors at large new. Scouts were made
today in three sections of the country, by
cavalry, under Col. Perry, Major Trimble,
and Major Cresson. The war with the
Modem, as a tribe, is over. Fighting
after the guerilla fitshion will be probably
continued until the last outlaw is captured
or killed.
Capt. Hizer's company of Oregon vol
unteers, numbering forty, arrived in this
valley last evening and bivouaked near us.
They will have a chance to do some little
scouting to-day.
THE PURSUIT RENEWED.
APPLEGATE'S MANSION, CLEAR LAKE,
Cal., June I—Afternoon—Via SAN FRAN
CISCO, June 2.—This morning the troops
at the camp in Langell's Valley were
divided into small parties, and sent out in
scouts after the fleeing Modocs. Just as
the scouting parties let, the Modoc cap
tives, with the exception or Bogus Char
ley, Hooker Jim, Steamboat Frank; and
Shack Nasty Jim, were sent to this ranch()
it, charge of Lieut. Taylor, of the Fourth
Artillery, and a small detachment of men.
THE CAPTURE OF JACK.
APPLEGATEi HOUSE, CLEAR LAKE,
Cal.. June I—Afrer..oon—Via San Fran
cisco, June 2—A series of prolonged
yells and cheers aroused this camp from a
pleasant siesta half an hour after the de
parture of my last courier. liens. Davis
mid wheatou, and the other officers, and
all the men, rushed from the house and
tents to find the cause of the uproar,
and at once the whole camp was in com
motion. Down the level plain north of
the house was a grand cavalcade of moun
ted horsemen. The steeds rushed forward
at once at a furious rate, and soon neared
the groups of spectators scattered about
the premises.. "Capt. Jack is captured,"
shouted a sturdy sergeant. Again the
valley echoed with cheers and yells. The
mounted command was that of Perry. He
had returned from a scout of twenty-three
hours, three miles above the mouth of
Willow Creek.
At 10:30 o'clock this morning, the Warm
Spring scouts struck a trail, and after a
brief search the Modocs were discovered.
Col. Perry surrounded the Indian retreat.
His men were bound to fight. Suddenly
a Modoc shot out from the rocks with a
white flag. He met a Warm Spring and
Captain Jack wanted to surrender. Three
scouts were sent to meet Capt. Jack. Be
came out cautiously, glanced about him a
moment, and then,
se if giving up all
hopes, came forward and held out his hand
to his visitors. Then two of his warriors,
five squaws and seven ehildreo darted
forth and joined him in the surrender.
_ .
The command that made this famcnoz
scout was the First Squadron of the First
Cavalry, Col. D. Perry; composed of
Troop F, Lieut. Miller, and Troop H,
Major Trumbull, and Medical Officer
Assistant Surgeon Dewitt. The guides
were C. Pullman and H. A. Applegate.
Capt. Jack is about forty years old. He
is five feet feet eight inches high, and is
compactly built. He has a large and well
formed face, full of individuality. Al
though dressed in old clothes he looks
every inch a chief. He does not speak to
any one. The Modocs are grouped in the
field near the house and surrounded by a
guard. Spectators peer into Capt. Jack's
face with eager interest, but ho heeds
them not. He is still as a statue.
Gen. Mackenzie's Raid---An Official
Dispatch.
The following brief official dispatch is
published in Texas papers :
HEAD -QUARTERS, POST OF
FORT CLARK,
TEXAS, May 20, 1873.
Assistant Adjutant General, Department of
Texas, San Antonio, Texas :
SIR : A dispateh received at this Past
last evening brings information of a bril
liant success in an attack wade upon two
villages of Kickapoo and Lipan Indians.
by Gen. Mackenzie and the Fourth Cav
alry under his command. Gen. Mackenzie,
with Companies A, B, C, E, J, and M,
Fourth Cavalry, and twenty-five Seminole
scouts, struck a camp of Kickapoo and Li-
I pan Indians about eighty miles from this
Post, early on the 18th, inst., having
marched all the night previous, killed
nineteen Indians, wounded two and cap
tured one buck, a former chief of Lipans,
took forty-ono women and children prison
ers, and have already sent in over fifty
captured ponies, besides destroying two
villages with all their accumulated prop
erty. All this was accomplished between
noon on the 17th, and daylight on the
19th, and with a loss to Gen. Mackenzie's
command of but three men wounded, one,
it is supposed, mortally. The march, (over
a hundred miles) the fight, destruction of
the villages, and the return to camp with
all the captured stock and prisoners, was
accomplished in a little over forty ;tours.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
J. K. MIZNER,
Major Fourth Cavalry, Commanding Post.

J. F. HARTRANFT,
Governor and Commander-in-ehiel,
The newly-appointed Adjutant, upon
a,,suming his office, issued the f,,llowing
Circular:
HEAD QUARTERS NATIONAL GUARD OF
PENNSYLVANIA!
ADJUTANT GENERALS OFFICE}
HARRISBURG, June 2, 1873.
CIRCULAR.
In aasurzing the duties of the Depart.
went, the undersigned desires to congrat
ulate the soldiery of Pennsylvania upon
securing such financial aid. by direct ap•
propriatiun, as will enable thew, in some
measure at least, to sustain themselves
without entirely depending, as heretofore,
upon individual resources tbr such suste
nance. This first direct pecuniary recog
nition of the National Guards service, by
legislative enactment and Executive ap
proval, marks an era in its history, which
now makes it such a component element
in the body politic as will, it is believed,
secure it that countenance and approval
from a generous public, to which it ever
should be entitled. _
To foster and encourage public sentiment
in its behalf, and warrant the further re
quest, for other and larger money aid, it
is the duty of each and all of its members,
officers and men, to give it that tone, by
.strict attention to discipline, through or
ganization, and efficient drill, as will nec
essarily compel every citizen to recognize
it, as a necessity in time of peace, ever
ready in trouble and disaster, to furnish
that essential aid, which shall quell and
suppress, riot and disorder
To effectually accomplish these looked
for results, every guardsman must lend
his direct personal energies; it is the in
dividual unit, acting with his fellow, that
gives character and strength to the whole
body. There must be such a pride enter
tained by each one in his respective corps,
as will induce him to consider that by his
connection with it, he is performing Lis
whole duty and doing his State some ser
vice.
It is the efficiency, drill and discipline,
good conduct, and high soldiery deport
ment, that brings into favorable public
notice all organized bodies of troops. The
service is not one of mere pleasure, it re
quires time and labor to reach perfection.
Without neglecting business pursuits this
perfection may be attained, by treating it,
as demanding both labor and sacrifice.
Officers by careful study and close atten
tion, will be enabled to so educate their
commands, as to instil in them that pride
of organization, which must ever sustain
and support them. Avoid all strifes,
bickerings, dissensions, obedience and
submission, are elements in the soldiers'
education that should never be forgotten.
Neither is there necessity for arbitrary or
overbearing action on the part of superi
ors. The duty and the law are plain and
simple, and when rightly followed and
well understood, will give no canes for
dispute or disturbance.
Let it be our effort then to place the
military of the Commonwealth upon the
footing and standard that her great re
sourees, her acknowledged power. her
education and int..lligence, her brilliant
war record demand that they should be;
so that as well. as her common echo 'ls,
her colleges, her universities, her bench,
her bar, her manufactures, her commerce
and her mines, may her soldiers, too, be
recognized and pointed to abroad and by
her sister States, with like acknowleged
merit, and distinction , and high repute.

Sound Doctrine from a Rebel,
Mr. Stephens on Grant's Louisiana Proc.
lanzation.
Since sending to the press our article
entitled : 'Mr. Stephens and his assail
ants once more," we have seen for the
first time the proclamation of General
Grant in relation to the state of things in
Louisiana, which was published in the
Atlanta Sun of Friday last. We have also
seen his proclamation headed in one of our
Democratic exchanges with these epithets :
"A Shame and Disgrace to the Country—
Grant Sustains the Usurpers with the
Army and Navy."
Now, as germane to what we said in the
baticle referred to, we deem it proper in
this connection to say that we do not
agree vilth our said cotemporary, or any
other cotensgoraries who thus characterize
this paper, and thus denounce this act of
the President. In this, as in all matters,
we are for dealing justly by General
Grant. We are net for conLsmning him
or any other man without a hearing. Ile
has not proclaimed his intention to sustain
usurpers of any class, but to sustain the
judicial decision of the courts, and with
these to sustain those authorities in the
State government who have been duly
declared to be clothed with rightftil au
thority therein by the State courts—in
ferior as well as supreme. This is his
statement of the case.
We have not seen the decision to which
he refers. Neither have we any disposi
tion or inclination to prejudice the case,
and just as little to pronounce without
evidence who are the usurpers of Louisi
ana. Most assuredly Gen. Grant cannot
be justly °barged with usurpation in exe
cuting the mandates of the eourts, either
Federal or State, under the acts of Con
gress of 1805.
We, therefore, repeat what we said last
December in Atlanta : “If General Grant
does nothing worse than execute the man
dates of the courts, State or Federal, we
shall have no quarrel with him,"
SYMPTOMS.-Slight pain in the side,
the skin and eyes assume a thick yellow
coal, digestion is impaired, an unpleasant
sinking sensation at the pit of the stomach
is experienced, the bowels are irregular,
the mind fretful, the memory weakened,
sometimes a slight cough, coldness of the
hands and feet, sometimes loss of appetite
and at others unnatural craving for food,
dizziness of the head, depressed spirits,
feeling of uncertainty, of having left some
thing undone but can't tell what it is.

When one learns that the United States
contains 14,000 drug stores, each of them
dispensing on a average a score of pre
scriptions a day, the only wonder is that
so many people die natural deaths.
Some questions very naturally suggest
themselves to an inquiring mind. An
amateur farmer wonders "Why, on all this
fair earth, the ground is spread bottom
side up, so that it must be turnel over
with a plow before crops can be raised."

MOVING DAY.
Not April Ist, amid slush or mud and
rain as it often happens in old Hunting
don ; but on the 18th of the same month,
a dry, hot and dusty day, such as you have
in July or August, we moved into our
NEW HOUSE,
Since our arrival in this city we have
been living with Rev.. Mr. and Mrs. Buck.

Millan, of Gettysburg, Pa., who came to
India in 1871 under the auspices of, the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society ; but

finite us sensible on the part of Miss C !Erie
Our new h nisc-,---new to us at least—is
built of sun dried brivk, such as the Isra
elitea made in Egypt. and covered with
thatch made of a strong grass. The house,
as usual in the country, is one-story high,
with ceilings nearly twenty feet from the
floor. This is necessary on account of the
extreme heat. '!he ceilings ate made of
coarse muslin stretched from wall to wall;
and white-washed. A verandah or porch,
ten feet wide, runs along two sides of the
house and a hall through the centre. On
either side of the ball are two large rooms
to which aro attached small dressing roams,
bath rooms, a pantry, &c. The property
belongs to the Mission, and cost, with out
houses, well, &e., &c., nearly two thousand
dollars. We put a few boxes on an old
fashioned cart, of
PATRAICIIAL STYLE,
drawn by a pair of white bullocks. The
balance of our affairs were carried on mm's
heads. This prevents them—not the
heads—from being rubbed and injured.—
Our floor, which is, in some of the rooms,
made of bricks, and in others a composi
tion of lime and sand, is covered with a
coarse matting made of grass, and a few
pictures brought from home adorn the
walls. From the ceiling in each room
hangs a large fan, which is kept in motion
over our heads by a native pulling a rope
which passes through the wall. In one of
the outhouses a Mohammedan cooks our
food, with how much care and cleanliness
I do not venture to say, but his rice and
curry, the savory meat, the patriarch
bread is very palatable indeed. And now
as we gather around our table in our new
home our thoughts turn away to our dear
boys in America, and the mother says,
"Would not our boys enjoy moving day if
they were here ?" Their places at the
family table are empty, and when we gath
er for family prayers we miss their youth- .
ful voices in the song of praise. But we
do not murmur. He for Whose sake we
have left our boys is able to take care of
them and comfort and cheer us too.

On the south-east, facing on a large
grass plot bounded by a boxwood hedge,
over which we can see the court house. a

EDITOR. JOURNAL :—Your correspon
dent was very much pleased this morning
to have the pleasure of reading the JOUR
NAL which you so kindly sent him. It
was brim full of news from all parts of
"Old Huntingdon county," and more par
ticularly Orbisonia, which appears to be
"chuck full" of the large and lesser lights
of brilliant litera scripta. "Oliver Crom
well, sr.," I fear, will yet, have to repent
the day that he sent his youthful son,
"Oliver, jr.," upon the rolling wave of
Belle Lettres, for the "Model World" will
be making its appearance when Theodore
sees fit to relent, as no astute writer can
compose his "piece" and at the same time
feel that the Model Theodore is cooly lay
ing back in the shade like a Mephistopho
les awaiting his time to put a 'diabolical
head" upon the devoted head of the au
thor of "The Model World," alias 'Nick
Whiffles," "Nicholas Nickleby," or any
other ink slinger hailing from Orbisonia
or the "lower end."
A. H. B,
It is indeed very amusing to read the
sly, sarcastic hits of these "lower end"
writers, but• from what I can learn, through
other than print, of these knights of the
"303," they generally write of what they
know, and know of what they write, as
most of them know exceedingly well '•how
it is themselves." But poor Pierce, I
can't see how he can rest in his grave
while there are so many conflicting reports
as to where he did really get the whiskey.
It is the greatest wonder that he cannot
6nd some restless spiritual medium to com
municate the true state of the ease though
to those undecided individuals who hare
been raking their brains to find a solid
foundation for a true tale whereupon to
found their argument, and let the world
in general, and "old Huntingdon county"
particularly, know, through the Mt. Union
Miles, the JOURNAL, and the Professor's
Sunday sheet, the Globe, where Pierce did
get his whiskey. "Oliver" should consult
one of these queer creatures. Upon the
whole. Mr. Editor, those Orbisonia letters
which have been appearing in the JOUR
NAL, and their replies in the "model pa
per," the Globe, are very interesting to us
who are doomed, for a certain period, to
sojourn in other climes, and while we read
we can but guess will the writers are. I
think that

wish of every one away from home, and
we shall look with interest forfuture num

letters."
Political affairs in this State are some
what quieter than they have been during
the past two months. Farmers and plant
ers have returned to their homes to look
after their interests there. De Blanc is
undergoing tri.,l before the United States
Court, at New Orleans, also ten or twelve
of Isis adherents. The people, especially
politicians, are Looking anxiously for the
result of this trial, as they thi.,k that c ise
will decide the future course or the Na
tional, as well as the State g.ivernment.
Two batteries of the let Artillery, three
companies of the 16th Infantry, and two
companies of the 19th Cavalry, are still
in New Orleans awaiting future develop
merit.% Besides the troops in New tit--
Issas, two companies are stationed at
Shreveport. two at Alexandria, two at
Brashear City, two at this place, and four
at Little Rock, Ark,making in all four
teen companies of Inantry and two batte
ries of Artillery within the Department,
or about 800 men strong. With this
force, and the Metropolitan Brigade,
(about 800 effective) Gen. Emery thinks
he can subdue any and all old rebel senti
mental disturbets of peace and harmony
within the Department.. The General
will do it. He is no Falstaff. We know
him of old. He is both feared and res
pected in this State by the "tax re3isters."
As I remarked be - fore, since the NeW
Iberia troubles have ended in Dr. Blanc's
arrest, the people have turned their
thoughts to agricultural and commercial
pursuits. The merchants say that they
have no reason to complain, as business is
a great deal better than was expected some
weeks ago. The planters are hopeful of
heavy crops, as the season so far has been
very favorable for cotton, corn and sugar
cane, and everything looks at present as if
large yields may be expected.
Senator Carpenter, from Wisconsin, is
in New Orleans, and is lionized by the
Ettery magnate, or was, until he made
his celebrated speech a few nights ago,
when he took occasion to condemn the
Colfax affair as "a massacre, and the mur
derers led on by a set of cut-throats and
refugees from justice." Since then they
think that "Senator Carpenter is some
what of a humbug," and is not the coming
man for the South—especially Louisiana.
Notwithstanding the strife and confliot
between political parties, some of the pro
minent men, with means, are doing what
they can toward railroad enterprise in Tex
as and points leading from New Orleans.
The International Railroad intends form
ing a connection with San Antonio, pro
vided that section of Texas gives proof of
its earnestness by subscribing heavily in
the way of stock. The projected line of
the International is well known, and the
benefit it will be to the country at large.
and Texas particularly, is very evident.
From the Texas Guide I learn a few
facts that may be interesting to your read
ers. The distance between places of note,
from Galveston to the city of Shreveport,
are as follows: From Houston to Pales
tine 150 miles; from Palestine to Long
view 76; front Longview to Shreveport
66, waking a total of 332 miles. Along
this line settlers are pouring in daily, new
farms located, villages springing up, towns
chartered, and everything looks as if Tex
ay, the refuge fl,r cut throats and horse
thieves at one time, is destined to out-rank
many of her sister States in the line of
commerce and agricultural enterprise.—
Many of the families who came to this
State one and two years ago, bought land
and settled down, as they supposed, for
life, have "pulled up stakes," sold out for
a were trifle, and left for Texas, where
reports say, they are doing well.
How the Bender Murders were Com
mitted.
The Bender family of Kansas have dis
covered perhaps the most merciful system
of murder, and if we must have murders
let us, by all means, have a system which
we have not yet seen noticed. It is this :
Their cabin was arranged as a place of en
tertainment for travelers. A sheet was
hung across it, dividing it into two com
partments. When a single traveler arri
ved, he was seated at a table so that the
outline of his form was defined upon the
sheet, and in case he leaned back, his head
pressed against this elastic as well as trans
parent bulkhead. Under his chair, un
known to him, was a trap-door. The male
fiend, stationed on the outer side of the
sheet, watched for the pressure of the vic
tim's head against it, and striking a stun
ning blow with a hammer on -the back of
the skull, slipped the spring of the trap
door, thus dumping the body into the
cellar, where his wife, knife in hand, stood
ready to end the work. Nicholas Minden,
a supposed accomplice of the Bender fami
ly, was arrested in Texas, but committed
suicide before reaching the State where
the atrocities, in which he no doubt bore
a part, were committed. Ile promised to
make a confession, but he was allowed to
have a pistol in his possession, strange
enough, with which he shot himself.—
There seems to be no doubt bat that the
Benders were in Texas where Mindon was
arrested, and were making their way into
Mexico. It is stated that two members
of the. family ware arrested in lowa on
Saturday; the mother at Oxford and the
son at West Liberty. There is said to be
no doubt of their identity.

Centaur Liniment,
There is no pein which the Centaur L niment will not
