He shot and killed i r- i ii i i juiii'H u. naunuers, a road super fvisor, with whom he became in fvolved in a quarrel while working on the road. Trogden was on the Indiana side of the road and he shot and killed his antagonist, who was moving toward him, on the Ill inois side, so that while Saunders' body probably fell in Illinois, the act that resulted in his death was committed in Indiana. The first trial at Terre Haute resulted in a disagreement. At the second a verdict of manslaughter was ren dered and a penalty of three years assessed. With a new trial and a change of venue to Clay county, Trogden got five years. The supreme court also granted a new trial to Simon Field, convicted and sent up for life from Klkhart county for the murder of Silas Hell. The two men became involved in a quarrel and Field stabbed Hell fa tally. The claim was self defense. Hoth cases were reserved on the ground ef erroneous instruction to the jury. A WOMAN CREMATED. VAI.PAKAl.so, Neb., Nov. III). Mrs. Stanton, wife of James Stanton, a prominent merchant of this place, met with the saddest accident that ever occurred in this village or vic inity. About 'i o'clock this after noon while iilliug the reservoir of a gasoline stove, she spilled some of the fluid on a conk stove that sat near by. A short time after that, forgetting about spilling it, she started a tire in the cook stove and turned her back to attend to some of her work. The gasoline on the stove flashed up and set her cloth ing on fire. No person being in the house at the time but a little girl about five years old and the lire having such a start before she no ticed it, it could not be put out. The little girl knew not what to do and started for her father's store, about six blocks nway, crying, which at tracted the attention of some of the neighbors, who ran over as quickly as possible and found Mrs. Stanton with every stich of her clothing burned from her body with the ex ception of a small portion of her corset. Mrs. Stanton died at 7;;i0 Mr. Stanton came here with his family from Petersburg, Neb., about one year ago and commenced his present business. lie has a family of five children, four girls and one boy. the oldest about sixteen years. THE ARM Alii 1ST TASK. David City, Neb., Dec. -'.--The theory the defense set up in the Armagost case all day was that embalming lluid was poured into the mouth of the deceased, thus ac counting fur the aiseuie foitud in th.' stomach, liver and kiduevs. Un dertaker Craiy of I'lysses testified j to having sent a quart id' einbalm i ing lluid for h'oberls' body to be used on the face and in the mouth. Isaac Armagost, step-son of the ac cused, testified to having brought a pint bottle of the embalming mix ture to the house of the deceased and administering about one-third of the lluid as directed, pouring some in the mouth of the deceased with a spoon twenty-four hours after death; that deceased's lower ' jaw dropped back and he noticed the lluid pass down the throat. Drs. Kngelhard, Atkinson and ! Hell testified as to the possibility of , embalming lluid passiugdown into i the stomach, liver and kidneys of ! a body lying on the back as the dead usually rest. The testimony went to show that the embalming lluid contained two pounds of arsenic with other ingredients in seven and one-half gallons of water and two gallons of alcohol. The prosecution expect to show in re buttal that the amount of arsenic found could not have been intro duced in the mild solution and that it is not probable that it could have passed into the parts men tioned. AFTKK A Ilk IKK I I.L.N Ess. Nl-W York, Dec. 'J. Jay Could is dead. He breathed his last at (1:1a this morning, surrounded by his children at his home on Fifth ave nue. There was no sign of pain and he was conscious until a few moments before he died. A short time before he passed he called his clildren one after the other to the bedside and bade them a long farewell. This done he closed his eyes and was dead al most before his beloved reali.ed that it was death. Could's last illness dates back two weeks, when he took a cold while driving. Asa result his al ready enfeebled constitution could not withstand the slight ailment. He began sinking rapidly from an early hour last night. After an at tack of coughing he became uncon scious, and then it was that Dr. Munnand Dr. Janeway recognized that the end was near. He permed to rally just before 7 o'clock, but it was not until 11 o'clock that there was evidence of returning con sciousness, when he bade the mem bers of tho family farewell, and they, with Dr. Muim, were at the bedside when the end came.

Jones for his second term of office as chief executive of Alabama took place in the hall of the house of representatives and in the presence of the general assembly at noon to day. Chief Justice Stone of the su preme court administered the oath of.oltice, It was voiced about last night that the extreme advocates of k Iv. Kolb, the defeated alliance candidate fer governor, proposed to storm the capital and have him sworn in as governor today. The report caused some stir in political circles, but it proved groundless, and the inauguration of Coventor Jones passed oil without'a ripple of excitement or the slightest show of opposition. In his inaugural ad dress Coventor Jones reviewed the adminialration of state affairs dur ing the past two years, and urged the necessity for a slight increase in the rate ot taxation. He held that the action ol the last legisla ture in reducing the tax rate was a mistake. Hcconeluded his address with the declaration that the demo cratic party can dare to do right. AI1S.VLOM, MY SOX ! Minneapolis, Minn., Dec. 12.-A telegram from San Francisco from Klisha Morse, whose name, it is claimed, was forged to a large amount of notes aggregating $100,. 000 or mc e, by his son. says: "Klishn Morse was seen at his resi deuce tonight and made the follow, ing statement; "The first inten tion I had of my son's trouble was a letter received by me from Min neapolis about four days ago, stat ing that my notes to a large amount were being used in Minneapolis. I at once telegraphed to friends that the notes were forgeries and in structed them to ascertain who was issuing such forged notes. I re- ceived in reply information that the notes were executed by my son, George Morse. I shall not make good the notes, even to save my son, and consequently Geonre will have to suffer the consequence. The new style of writing "un. punctuated letters" certainly can not be called the fad of the period. NEAR DEATH'S DOOR. Tho Groat Financier Droathing His Last. THE LAST SAD RITES. Two Hundred find Filty Inmates of Disorderly Houses in Hittsbui K Bosoitfinu the Mayor of Th.it City. SI.MVW.Y DYINli. New York. 1.v. I. !i has been determined that Jay Could is suffer ing with consumption, and that he is now in his last illness. Last win ter he went to a mure genial eli mate and it was hoped until recent ly that he mi- lit be able this winter to get away b om New York to some locality where the atmosphere is more bland than lu re. The devel opment of his trouble has, however, prevented his i-oiiteinplaled remov al, and Mr. Could now lies at his Fifth avenue home in this city growing weaker daily. His entire fanidy is within reach of hurried summons and bis personal medical attendants in close attendance. To seek details of the sick room would be a fruitless ellort, for such information is rigidly held within the family circle. That Mr. Could has, as has been rumored, suffered hemorrhage may or may not be true. It matters not. The health of the great financier has many times in years gone by been the subject of sensational and designing rumors, this writing, however, deals with no rumor, nor is it designed to cause sensation. Could is low with consumption, lie is weak, and each day his phys ical forces less oppose the advance id the disease. His lift' may be pro longed lor some days, but liis days ari' well nigh numbered, and the limit of his living may be said now to have been narrowed almost to hours. At midnight it was staled that Jay Could was unconscious. An hour later it was stated that he was in the same condition. THE LAST KITES. j Washington, 1). c, Dec. l.-Thej funeral services of Kev.

Among those who were present were meiuberu tin enk.iuci vito TTi-re not pall bear ers, Vice President and Miss Morton and Sir Julian Pauncefote, Hritish minister. K'ev. Tennis S. Hamilton, paster of the Church id the Cov enant, who conducted the services, made a brief invocation, concluding with the Lord's Prayer in which all joined. The choir of the Church of the Covenant quartet, seated in the adjoining corridor then sang "Nock of Ages," one of Dr. Scott's favorite hymns. Scripture reading by Dr. Hamlin followed the selections, in cluding the promises of long life and the blessings which attended it, peculiarly appropriate in view of the great age of the deceased. Dr. Hamlin then read a sketch of Dr. Scott's life mid a tribute to his memory. "Asleep in Jesus" Wfts then redered by the quartet and the services closed with a prayer. At 7 p. in. the funeral party left by the Pennsylvania road for Washington, Pa., where the burial will take place tomorrow. TIIKOWN INTO THE STk'EET. PmsuUKi;, Pa. Dec. l.--Never be for in the history of Pittsburg was such a scene witnessed as that in the city hall this afternoon. At least U.T0 inmates of disorderly houses, who were ordered to leave the city by tomorrow afternoon, gathered in the mayor's office. They were of all grades and condi tions of their class of society, The women insisted on seeing Mayor Coiirley and when he made his ap pearance they wanted to know what they were to do. Mayor Gourle made a speech, in which he said, in part: 'Tin sorry for you women. I did not close your houses for tlnrU months of my term for the reason that 1 dill not think it would help this evil. When the ministers ol the city, wives, mothers, sisters and brothers came to ine to insist on the law being lived up to, I had to issue the order. I take all the re pponsibility and not know what you can do. I have nothing to otfer you. I think Mr. Hrown's order i. too hasty. I do not believe in hurrying you out in the streets like dogs." One of the females said: "Som. of these women, in fact a gre.n number of them, live away fron here. They have no money and u friends, and what are they to dor" "That I don't know," said tin mayor, "but I will try and see whai the ministers will do and let yin known by tomorrow afternoon." The women went down Sniithlield street to Fifth avenue in a body at tracting a great ileal of attention. The ministers id the city propose at once to take e.ire of the women. The care of the 'talleu" will be the sole subject of discussion next Sun day, and active n.easures will lie taken to provide homes for those who would lead mural lives.
