Henry Wagner Hakes a Fall Confession at the Hearing. THE! ABE HELD FOR LABCEHY. Barrett and Werner Asked Ball end Wagner to Fnmiih It They an Taken to the Lancaster Priion, Hun to Await Trial Wagner Claims that Threatened to Shoot if He made any Attempt to Divulge the Bobbery. Constables Sattazahn and Hunter and Officer Keily Ringler, who took William Henry Wagner and Dutchy Werner to Ephrata, Lancaster county, and there banded them over to the Lan caster officials, returned home yesterday afternoon.

A bearing was given tha men before Squire Samuel L. Sharp. The Squire's office was crowded with people and many failed to get in. Garrett and Werner all the way to Ephrata did not apeak to Wagner, whom they blame for the discovery of the robbery. At the Bearing Wagner made a full confession, aa he had promised to do, telling all be knew.

He claims that he did not help to Tob the store, but remained in the buggy, and the first intimation he had that they had committed the deed was when tbe mountains were reached. Here a match was struck and the stolen goods were displayed. Garrett noticing that did not heartily accord with what had been done, drew his revolver and threat enedtotake Wagner's life should heat time make a revelation of the work. Tbe 'Squire stated that inasmuch as tbe house was not tenanted it conld not be burglary, but that a clear case of larceny had been made out. and that he would hold Wagner in and Garrett and Werner in bail.

Unable to furnish the ball they were sent to the Lancaster jail. This morning a number of Wagner's friends left here for Lancaster with a view of bailing him. Mr. William Shott yesterday was in Ephrmta and brought home with him a piece of the broken window, which in fully one-fourth of an inch thick. be Kade to Arrest Violation ot Law.

Associated Press to Um RALEIGH, N. Oct. political sensation has been sprung here by the exposure of tbe secret working of the "Gideonists" organization. Two men named M. L.

Reed and J. S. Bell, both leading Alliance men, have made sworn statements to the effect that S. Otto Wilson, State chairman of the third party, initiated them into the order. Bell at first declared he conld not consent to join unless Wilson first made a full revelation of the character and purposes of the order.

Bell found that there were only thirty members to each connty and not over 300 to each congresfional district, all being specially chocen for influence and as men who conld be relied upon in an emergency. It was a solemn obligation to implicitly obey all orders of the connty, district, State and National Wilson aaid the purpose of the order wag to promote the third party movement. Bell upon hearing all told Wilson that he regarded the organization as dangerous and said it would result in tbe destruction of the Alliance and Third party. The State constitution expressly forbids any secret political organization, having been prepared to crush ont the Union League and Ku Klnx. There are demands for tbe arrest of Wilson and those who aided him in foiming this order and the grand jury are called upon to prosecute them for gross violation of the law.

If any pupil is not at the exercises in the evening, they will be marked as absent from tchool.

Those schools that have their exercises in the afternoon will meet at their respective rooms at one o'clock aud tbe exercises will begin at two o'clock promptly. Those schools interested in the evening exercises will meet promptly at 6.30 o'clock and the exercises begin at 7.30.

The departments of the High School will be thrown into one and some of the pupils have prepared essays which will be read. Prof. S.

General O. O. Howard, TJ. S. commanding the Department of the East, in his report to the Secretary of War makes some important recommendations touching the National Guard of the Uni ted States.

He says: The militia under its new name, National Guard, has reached a degree of excellence never before attained. This body of citizen soldiers is not only useful in maintaining order in the several but it will be of the highest value to the General Government in case of hostilites in guarding important points pending the formation of a volunteer army. It is certainly entitled to generous aid from the National Treasury. AtTpresent the Government contributes relatively a mnch smaller sum than it did or ninety years ago wben the militia was lacking in proper organization and discipline. The annual appropriation of well be in creased to $1,000.000.

"But whether this be done or not, I respectfully and urgently invite your attention to tbe propriety and necessity of providing at the next session of Congress for a re-armament of the entire National Guard at the same time that the sew infantry arm is furnished to the army. It will be many years before tbe militia can be supplied with new rifles. The result will be that during this period one portion will be armed with guns of 50 calibre, another with 45, and still another with tbe new calibre of 30 or 82. Should these troops be called ont during this period great confusion must result in attempting to supply them with ammunition. ance that The Bed Hen and Haymakers a Kaia on the Pals b.

A New Kethod of Watting. A method of washing is being extensively adopted in Germany and Belgium One of its special advantages is that it counteracts the ill effects of soda, which is mnch used in Europe upon linen. Two pounds of soda are dissolved in three gal- tons of water, and to this is added a teaspoonful of turpentine and three of liquid ammonia.

When tbe mixture has been well stirred the linen is steered in it for two or three hoars. During the operation thev essel is closed aa tightly as possible, and afterward the clothes are washed out and rinsed in the usual manner. Tbe snap and water may be used again with tbe addition of half a teaspoonful of turpentine and a tablespoonfnl of ammonia. The process is said to save time, labor aud fuel. As there is no necessity for rubbing, tbe linen scarcely suffers, and its cleanliness and color are perfect.

The ammonia evaporates immediately, and the smell of turpentine is said to disappeai entirely during the drying of the clothes. York Telegram. Lutheran Eemoval. The perplexing question of the removal of the Gettybnrg Lutheran Seminary, which has occupied the greater part of the time of tbe West Pennsylvania Lutheran Synod, was brought to a close at York yesterday morning by the adoption of a resolution declaring that tbe matter of removal of the Seminary can safely be left to the judgment of the Board of Directors. It was, however, the judgment of tbe Synod that before decisive action for tha removal be taken there should be a suitable site secured and at least $100,000 additional for the erection of necessary buildings.

Christian Endeavor. The Lebanon County Union of Christian Endeavor Societies, will hold their fall meeting next Tuesday evening at 7:30 o'clock in the Seventh street Lutheran church. This is a public meeting and promises to be. an interesting one. There are about a dozen societies in the Bight Below the Men Bevolveri and Were Cleaning Wolf Wants to Show How Quickly the Trigger Meily Probes the Wound hut Fails to locate the Bullet.

This morning at 8 o'clock, in Mott's tonsorial establishment, No. 000 Cumberland street, a shooting accident occurred that might have terminated fatally had it not been that the ball penetrated the right cheek below tbe eye, instead of a more vital spot. The proprietor of the barber shop, Fred his A. J. Wolf, are both possessors of revolvers and this morning got them for the purpose of cleaning them.

While handling them they got into a discussion as to the respective merits of the revolvers, one man claiming that he could work the trigger of his revolver quicker tban the other. While doing this act Mr. Wolf happened to elevate his revolver and carelessly pulled the trigger, forgetting that the revolver had two cartridges in it. Tbe hammer came down with a click, a discharge followed, and Mr. Mott, who was standing in line of the revolver, received the bullet in his face, striking the cheek a little below the right eye, close to the nose.

The blood flowed profusely from the wound and Mr. Wolf seeing what he had done became exceedingly agitated. Tbe news soon spread it was but brief time ere the room was filled with persons who had heard of the accidental shooting. Dr. Samuel Meily was promptly summoned and probed unsuccessfully for the ball, but finding that he could not locate it removed Mr.

Mott to his home, on North Eleventh street, where another effort during the day will be made to find the ball. Mr. Mott's face is terribly marked with the powder of the cartridge and he is very, likely to carry those marks, if nothing serious from the shoot ing occurs, to the grave. The revolver from which the bullet was fired is known to the trade as the "Defender," 33 calibre and belongs ta the low price of revolvers. A reporter of the NEWS shortly after the accident, stepped into the barber ahop and found the shop boy washing the blood from the floor.

Mr. Wolf was at the wash stand cleaning his hands. He pointed to where he had placed the revolver, when Constable Gates took ont both revolvers from a drawer and examined the same. Mr. Mott, still pale and visibly agitated, looked up and seeing the revolvers remarked to the constable: "Jim, don't you want to buy that revolver.

I'll sell as I don't want it any longer." Mr. Gates having a revolver of his own did not purchase it, and soon left the shop, leaving Mr. Wolf alone with the apprentice boy to reflect over how near he came to taking the life of a man by too carelessly handling a revolver. Mr Wolf feels severely sore over tbeacoi- dent, and to the NEWS man stated that he would far sooner had tbe accident occurred to him than to Mr. Baker Defends His Ballot Law.
