ust previous to his disappearance, Mr. Clark had come to this city and drew a large sum of pension money. He was mice missed but after a search be was found at his home. In a few days, however, Mr. Clark was again missed and the closest search failed to locate him anywhere.

A few days ago a letier was reoeived by Mr. Clarks famil- from come relatives who live near -arr ton. saying that he had just ie that place. Where the runawa- mm nas been during the intervening me is not stated, but his friends here --ell pleased to know that he has oo re turned up, as foul play had been feared, when his long absence had lien considered. 1 board one to A i MP 1 ED SUICIDE.

From Wednesday's Daily. Yesterday afternoon in the Lemons trial Private Buford of Company jave in his testimony, lie says that lie nad been ordered by Sergeant Webster, his commanding officer, to go and arrest Lemons on the day of the murder and that together with Myers, be had at tempted to do so. When they found the man, however, he tail thrown his gun forward and orded them to go away if they expected to live. He (Buford) had then gone back to the guard-house and making his report to Sergeant Webster, that officer had said: I will arrest him. With a gun in his hand Webster started on a run for the scene of action, and getting sight of Lemons, ordered him under arrest.

The rebelious private refused to submit. Several words passed and then Lemons shot Webster dead. He at lirst tried to escape, but wns captured after several shots had been tired at him. Captain Van R. Hoff, senior surgeon at the post was called aud testified that he examined the wound on Webster and that it was necessarily instantaneously fatal.

Webster never mew what hurt him. The bullet had entered the left shoulder aud ranged downward. The rest of the witnesses for the pros ecution gave similar testimony, ai then the defense called their witnesses. In reality. Lemons witnesses were hardei on him than was those of the prosecution.

William A. Basly, of Arkansas City, testilied that on the day of the rnurdei he noticed Lemons, gnu in hand, coming toward a tent where he was standing. In this same tent was a woman named Sallie Brown, and who, as to in as sht saw Lemons, she crawled under a talil-to escape him. This was at Laundry Row. LemoDS was mad and crying, ami left the tent after failing to find the woman.

A short time afterwards saw Webster tryiDg to place Lemons un dor and saw the fatal shot tired. flihen the court convened at 9 o'clock this morning the defense resled theii case aud United States Attorney Perry summed up the evidence the jury. He said that the evidence was so plain that Lemons bad murdered Webster, that he did no care to weary the jury with a long talk He simply said that Sergeant Webstei as a commanding officer, had a right to order Lemons arrest, and that LeniODs had no right to kill him for so doing. 1 was inferred by the evidence thRt Lem ons was trying to find a woman named Sallie Brown and that in case he found her would have killed her and then this led ta the order for his arrest. Col.

Sumner then made an hours talk and plead for mercy for Lemons. He did not attempt to make it appear that Lemons had not killed Webstei, but he asked the jury to bring in a verdict of manslaughter and not murder, and begged that they should not bring in verdict that would hang his man. lb-made several statements during his speech which caused the judge to stoi and correct him and right an erroneous impression which he was trying to make-on the jury. The colonel finally rested his esse by pleading fora verdictof man slaughter. District Attorney Perry then followed with a few more remarks, and Judge Foster chargee! the jury.

He explained to them the difference between murder and manslaughter. He said that inur der was where one man killed noother with malice aforethought, and that Was manslaughter when the deed was done in the heat of passion. He then explained the term -malice afore thought, by saying that a man need col have murder in his heart for days oi hours, but if only for a minute to make it malice aforethought. Neither could a man be guilty of manslaughter when he got into a rage at eome one and then shot another man during bis anger. Thut con Btituted murder.

Manslaughter was where it was done in a fight or in the heat of passion. His charge, according to the evidence in the case, as against the prisoner. At 11 oclock the jury re tired to debate on the evidence that had been presented to them for considers tion. Jim Jones, alias Whisky Jim wns then brought before the judge charged with petty larceny, and pleading guilty was sent up for ninety days. The adverse criticism of the press of the city in regard to the uncomfortable chairs that the jury was compelled to use, haa borne good results.

This morn ing twelve handsome and comfortable chairs were brought in and arranged for the jury. They not only set off the ap pearance of the court room but they ill be much more comfortable for the jury which may have to ait there for hours at a time. The jury in the Lemons case have arrived at a verdict of murder. Sentence will probably be passed on the last day of court. J.

W. GUNTHER. J. W. Gunther was next placed on trial fer his life.

He is an elderly gen tleman and is accused of the murder of a man named FrowwiDe, in the Qua Paw Indian country, on the morning of June 5, 1887. A jury in this caae was se cured before uoon and thej court adjourned until 1:30 this afternoon. E. EL Enoch and C. A.

Markland are acting aa attorneys for the defense. The first witness called was a drayman at Baxter Springs, Kansas, by the name of Froley. This witness testified that on Sunday morning, he, in company with his wife anil several other people, had started out to visit his mother-in-law. Near the east bank of Spring river, and about five miles from Baxter Springe, he and his relatives saw a dead man lying near the road and not far from Gunthers house, with one side of his face smashed in with a load of shot. Froley returned to town or took the back track and reported the affair.

That was all be knew except that he afterwards heard that the dead man was a man named Frowwine, a neighbor of Gunthers. The second witness, Ed Covey, was a boy who had slept all night on the night of the 4th of June, 1887, in company with another youth. On Sunday morn ing he had awakened and heard Win. Gunthers voice in a field east of ihe house. Soon afterward Gunther called for hia dog, and his son Tom took the animal down to the field.

Not long afterwards he heard a shot and in a short time father and son returned home. Immediately afterwards old man Gunther saddled a horse, and shot-gun in hand, left home. He afterwards viewed the body as it lay by the side of the road and thinks that the body was found in the direction of the sonnd of the snot he had heard He also testified that Frowwines head waa smashed in with a load of shot. ts to Climb A stitute in Atte to Glory by the Morphine Route. cd from evening -toppir he dr.se of f.r tl Prof.

It appears that tin- hi la portion of the new city of Guth i- has determined that the farce of in.uiuuion shall not be saddled onto that young and nourishing place, aa i liu be.n in this city.

Already the es system has come into vogue aid iquor traffic nourishes without the dee tern having to pay a cent of license to ihe city. The following article taken fru.u the Guth rie Daily News expl the situation and is very interesting ou people: The sale of whisky has begun to attract the comment of the people. The men engaged in tbebu iiu-s have during the last month come lees painstaking to prevent discovery and have become so bold as to sell It right over the counter. Now the word come that the drug stores will be allowed te sell it for medicinal purposes only. In fact Guthrie is gradually but surely becoming a town on the fu-ihion of a Kansas town where the tiery liquor is sold under the gui6e of prohibition.

As the sale of whisky is allowed and will be so far as appearances portend, the question arises whether the city council shall take it in li ml to regulate its sale and obtain a revenue from it, or whether the eyes of the 1 1 makers and the people shall be clos I to its existence and as it is the pr lice of Kansas to allow the traffic to Hu Irish without paying a cent to the i-upport of the city. When Oklahoma was opemd the gov eminent foresaw that if whisky were al lowed among the boom, rs ihe likelihood of bloodshed won hi be greatly enhanced so accordingly the law was stretched aDd the traffic as forbidden. Several months elapsed during which large numbers of b. -leggers were bound over to Wichita. Bui finally the fact leaked out that Judge Foster bad said that no one could be prosecuted for selling liquor in Oklahoma.

This was denied afterwards and the report was consequently discredited; but about that time it 9 noticeable that no more men were bound over for whisky smuggling. However, the government had accomplished its purpose and during the greatest excitement no intoxicants were sold; bnt now that there is no more danger of bloodshed resulting from its sale than in any other town of the country and also because of the commencement of court, there seems to be an inclination on the part of the government to withdraw us strictures on its sale. Hence, it is that it wil be quite easy to get a drink when the drug stores and back door resorts are in full blast; and it does seem that it might as well be openly allowed, and the city obtain suitable revenue to manage it.

There was a missionary meeting last night at the First Presbyterian church which was well attended. Ihe urr consisted of singing and brief speeehep, followed by a vry interesting paper by Miss Skinner on missionary work in Japan. This was succeeded by a short talk from Professor Nay lor, who has a sister-in-law, who is a missionary in Japan. A letter from this lady proved very interesting to the congregation.

In the course of his remarks. Prof. Naylor gave a few instance of the peculiar rules and customs prevalent among the festive Japs. Ilesaid: "Iliey have one custom that I am not sure would be very popular in 1 America and Wichita. In the cities and towns of Japan all the men are compelled to retire from the street1 at 9 oclock afte- which time the ladies lake their airing constitutional walks.

This custom is juBl about reversed here, is it not? Professor Naylor continued: The Japanese language is of course very peculiar, but its chief peculiarity lies in the fact that the degree of emphasis laid upon the last syllable of a verb indicates the amount of esteem or hate the speaker has for the person he is address iug, and in order that the king may know what his subjects are talking about, when in his presence, all corner sat ion is carried on in a very h'gb voce. Other very interesting Jupanesa facts were also introduced by the professor, who pleased his audience very much during his speech. INTERESTING SURGERY. English justice famed for his knowledge of the wit of tho English bench and bar. I tried to match tils stories with such shining specimens as I could think of from the contributions of our American lawyers, reserving for the last the famous pun of Judge Hoar regaiding a friend of his, who, he said, first got on, then got honor, and then got honest.

To my surprise, Mr. Justice Wills scarcely smiled at his sally. Indeed, his manner rather savored of offense. That is a good story, he remarked, dryly, but I fear I must dampen your enjoyment of it somewhat by telling you it was borrowed from our side of the water. My friend, Sir Fred- rich one of the most gifted of punsters, as well as of lawyers, said Mr.

This morning Mr. Clawson with the! authorities went to the spot where the body of his brother was found, but was unable to gain any clue. He is positive that his brother wns dered, but can give no reason for the commission of the crime. He said that his brother had no enemies that, he knew of and that although he was supposed to Lave a plentiful supply of money he did not think that he had enough to cause any one to take his life in order to gain it, and especially in the light of day'. Mr.

Clawson is of the opinion that bis brother wat murdered in a cjuarrel, and will have the detectives look up his real estate business and try to find in that an incentive for the crime.

Seven years ago Judge John P. Casady, then ti3 years old and a widower, began the quest of a partner to share the comforts of his doelining years, and honored Mrs. Dr. Osborn, widow of a prominent physician, with an offer of marriage. The judge was very wealthy, being rated at a quarter of a million, and although incumbrances in the way of grown-up children discounted his attractions somewhat, the widow laid aside her weeds iu 1885 and joined her life with his.

Two of the judges children were still at home, the rest of them having planted flourishing vines and tig trees of their own, and these two were so nearly of the same age as the new inmate of the Casaday household that trouble began to brew. From the start- there seemed little compatibility of temper. The wife was a prominent church worker, given to dress and social duties, and in all these walks of life she had to tread alone. She compensated her loveliness in these respects by 1 he good clothes and rare gems the judges strong box permitted her to buy, having purchased no less then $13,000 worth of articles for per sonal adornment in the four years she became a Casady. Petty quarrels at home and little tiffs abroad became the subject of remark almost from the lirst, bnt little thought was wasted on the lady, as she had always seemed able to care for herself.

She proved this when the long looked for climax came several times during the pest month Mrs. Casady has visited a prominent attorneys office, and now a suit for divorce against the judge has beeu tiled. The bill charges cruelty, avers that the plain I iff was the constant recipient of insulting taunts and harsh names, declares that she was deprived of the actual necessaries of life and that the children of the household, like their father, covered her with abuse. Divorce is prayed for, and the court is asked to settle alimony to the amount of $50,000. The judge himself, aged and weary of the turmoil of life, is yet clear grit, and will light the case to the end.

Knowing ones declare that he will tile a i cross bill charging his wife with things far more serious than anything contained From Friday's Daily. This morning Jim Potts, janitor at theSedgwick county jail met with a very severe injury, the effects of the devilish disposition of the prisoners confined in that institution. The moat of the criminals are con fioed in the revolving cells, and of course in this part of the jail there is considerable machinery. As Potts was working down in the basement eomeof these prisoners spied him and without warning, turned the cagee around. Potts right band was caught in the rapidly swinging cage, and the fore finger of his hand was crushed off.

His whole hand was injured more or less, but he will lose his finger entirely. It was only a short time since they tried this trick on Potts and one of his fingers is still wrapped up. When the janitor cried out with pain the murderer, Lemons, laughed in his cage above and remarked; I wish it had crushed him to pieces.
