Ab< ut T o’clock a messenger was seen hastening into tbe city from the northern suburbs forth 4 pur pose of summoning officers to a cei tain spot where a scene war be ing enacted in a manner quite interesting . The officers responded to the call and in a short while they appeared aimed at the proper place. The entire community seemed greatly excited and terrified wo men were running about scream ing, and men were excit'd. As soon as possible the cfficers of lhe law found out the cause of the uproar. It seemed that George Makinson, wh.te, was the so’e promulgator. In the window of his heme the officers spied him Brandishing a hughe hatchet arrou d his head, and speaking in wild tones. He had threatened his wife’s life and driven her out of the bouse, and had treated the rest of his fami y i i the same way. Several trimds bad come m to see him and he treated them in alike manner. He h>d invited a patent medicine man to line with him, ai d almost before lhe dinner had been digested had swore that “he wiiu'd put out bis light,” and the man bad to seek a tefuge in tne woods. The < slicers advanced on Makin son, nut to'get in and secure him was next to impossible. He was a wild raving manic. After a great deal of insii-tiug. Deputy i Lauders promised him to pro tection of the government troops if ne.-essiay fir his si’ety. He seemed to have faith in this, and Lai.dirs and Enwu were admitted. But no so*', er had thay gained entrance than they had to beat a hasty retreat, for the man with hatchet seemed eager for their sca’p. : Captain Lyls was finally admit* l ted again. Makinson wanted to kneel and pray. Lyle was willing. So he prayed loud and long for thirty minutes, Makinson was finally got'ot tin the front yard aud iL 1 three m n grabbed and bound him. At this time a friendly wagon oatno up. The crazy man was dumped into it and hustled off to the j iikd where he waits furthor dev, lom ents. At a late hour this evening the mm was seen in the cell.
