TO TRY UNION BANDITS. Two cf Them to be Arraigned in Missouri Court. Union, Missouri, July 13. —The term of the circuit court whcih open ed hero today will likely be made notable by the trial of the Union robbers, Geodye Collins and William Rudolph, the latter of whom created a great sensation last week by his daring ecaos from, the St. IjiuL- , ja,!l, where the two were comlned awaiting trial. Not since the extermination of the Goffey\#lle gang which flourished several years ago has this section of tihle county produced two more desperate criminals than Rudolph and CLiJms, ne/th,or 'ot h.hom is more than 21 years old. On December 27 last, the two young men rode into Union, terrorized every one in the town, entered the bank and stole $14,000 in currency andi SIOO,OOO in securities, They fled to Rudolph’s home, and when surrounded by deputy sheriffs escaped after killing one of the posse. In Rudolph's hoirjp the ofllcial found a scrap of paper on which was scrawled “ George Collins, Hart ford.” The police of Hartford, Conn., were notified and they icunu that Col .iti's’ stepfather, whose name was La Plant, lived there with his two sons. The house wa*- watched, and on March 1 two men who left were followed to a resort. 'This place was urrounded and just then a carriage drove up and from it stepped Col lins and the two I.a Plant boys. Collins war- captured after a se vere struggle. Two detectives wem into the house and there found Ru dolph, who fought them with the f#i oricity of a maniac. He was subdued, howovnl, and . locked up, together with the others. .in La Liams house sß,(iSu, mos'ly .■it gold. wa< found, with three revol vers and a set. of burglars' tools. Both Rudolph and Collins declared they would never stand triil and the former's sensational escape from prison was no surprise as the two men, despite their youth, are re garded as the most desperate cri in itials with which the Missouri authro itles have had to ojeal for many year*. BRUNSWICK, GA„ TUESDAY MOR NING, JULY 14, 1903. ARE AFTER THE NEGRO —4 — Reported That Posse Now lias Him Located in Swamp. KEEPING UP THE CHASf Report Reached the City Yesterday That He Had Been Captured and Lynched, But There Was No Truth in it. That posse of Mclntosh county people seem determined to capture the negro brute. Ed Cleil-, who assault a young white lady near Darien Junction and they are still hot on his trald. Many different stories reached the city yesterday concerning the cap ture of the negro. One v.as to the effect that he had been caught Sun day night by the posse aud lynched another was that he had been shot dead and left In theswamp. Neither of the stories, however, proved to be true, and from last re ports received from the vicinity was to the effect that the bruie was still at large. It is still believed that he is in the swamp near Jesup and very close watch is being kept in. that neighborhood. It was heard by the pos e yesterday that the negro had been seen in Mc- Intosh. county and a part of the posse immediately went there, but he was not found. It is safe to predict, however, that if the negro is captured, ho will not live to be tried by a court. Information from Darien was to Hit effect that Miss Johnson, his victim. was improving, and it is now believed that she will recover. The entire affair Jyas caused much indignation W At an early ffimr flns morning * t was learned that the negro had been located and his capture is expected at any moment. MEETING IS ABOUT OVER Christian Endeavorers Have Had a Very Successfc! Convention. Denver, Col. July 13. —The great Christian Endeavor convention is drawing to a close, but this fact did not in the least abate the enthusiasm with which the delegates participated In today’s preceedings of the great est gathering of the Christian young people that, has ever yet been held.

"Consecration" was the centra thought in the score of more prayer meetings that began at 6:30, and was in fact the principal subject of i la day. Tent Endeavor was crowded at every meeting and the vast audi ences listened attentively to interest ing addresses from, a number of emi nent speakers. The regular noon evangelistic service attracted crowds of workers, who joined in the praise with a seriousness that seemed to in dicate regret that the last day ot the convention was at hand. Apart from the business aspect which has surrounded the g.v boring, there has been a social side to the week's doings which was more no ticeable than in all other conventions held in this city. , Owing to the late spring and the damp weather w'iiich has extended unusually late into the summe., none of the prooiuinent people huvi yet left for the seashore. So there have been receptions without man her, thouglh mostly of an informal nature. Tomorrow will finish the breaking up of the crowd. Some will return home, more will take in the excursions to the mountains and other nearby resorts. A Farmer Straightened Out.
