murder of Alviro G. Clark at La
Grange, 111., have both been acquit
ted. The murdered man was the
husband of the woman on trial, and
St. Peter had been employed as
workman on the farm. There was
some testimony going to show that
these two had been unduly iutimate.
The chief facts were given at the
time iu the Journal, and we were
irrcsistably forced to the conclusion
that Joe St. Peter killed Clark, the
fact being known to and approved
by Mrs. Clark.
The murderer of Mrs. Harolson
aud her three children near Kearney
this State, on the 8th of December
last turns out to be a young man by
the name of S. D. Richards of that
county, who after committing the
horrible murder fled to Ohio, an
was pursued by the officers of the'
law and arrested at Mt. Pleasant,
and by constable Anderson McGrew
taken to SteubenvilIe,Ohio,and lodg
ed in jail. The constable had read
in a newspaper an account of the
murder,andthc name of the suspect
ed man was familiar to him, aud he
who was known in that community
by that name had just returned from
Nebraska. The officer called to his
assistance an other citizen, aud ex
pecting a fierce resistance from the
borderman, as they supposed him to
be, they armed themselves to ihe
teeth and went in pursuit of their
man. They found him in a strip of
woods near Mt. Pleasant, walking
along leisurely iu company with two
young ladies. Advaucing upon him
with their guns at Ibeir shoulders,
they seized him withoutva struggle
and without"a"scenef the only re
mark being made by the self-pos-secsed
man that 'f he had a brace of
revolvers he would meet any six
men in the State. He was visited
by a special reporter in his cell at
Steubenville, who says "I was in
troduced to a well-dressed, hand
tome young man of twenty-three
cummers, tall and straight as an ar
row, broad chested, muscular, of
Herculean physique, but withal of
easy carriage and graceful mien,
polite, modest and quiet. He talks
in a low musical voice, with his
6raall gray eye riveted upon his
auditor. He related this strange,
startling and thrilling story, which
if true, is without a parallel in the
history of a Turpin or McHeatb. 'I
was born in the staid little town of
Mt. Pleasant, this county, and early
in life had tho precepts and charac
ter of the Quaker iustilled into my
mind. I grew up to boyhood, and
until three years, ago, no event oc
curred to interrupt the even tenor
of my way. But about that time
having a desire to roam and rove, I
started westward, and then began
my wild career which is soon to
end. I never was drunk. I do not
drink now ; never did. I have liv
ed in Michigan, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Missouri, Kausas, Nebraska and
Colorado, and have many friends
wherever I have been. My rule has
been to confide in no one, but now
that my doom is staring me in the
face I tell you I have been the cause
ol six bloody murders. No one ever
knew this before. I have been
looked upon as an exemplary young
man, and in those places where I
am acquainted I moved in the cream
of society. The first man I murder
ed was on account of a quarrel we
had it was in Buffalo county. Then
another man, I butchered ! I went
into a house one day, and the man
who lived there heaped vile oaths
upon me j seizing a hammer that
was near by, I beat out his brains
and left him; soon forgetting or
caring anything about if.. Once an
officer undertook to arrest me ; we
exchanged five shots; I received
two wounds but overpowered him.
Then I bound up his wounds and
had him taken to a hospital. Some
of the bodies have not been found.
I left a body in Kearney county
that was my last murder. I made
lots of money in various ways. I
expect to atone for my crimes on the
gallows. There is no hope for ine
now. But I shall go to the scallbld
as I would to my dinner and with
as little concern. I returned home,
not to escape the vengeance of the
law, but to see my friends and the
companions or my youth for the last
time. I knew I must at last fall, hut
I tell you had I been armed when
they came after me, I would not
have been taken alive; and when I
die my death will be avenged, for
my partners will have the blood of
those that hunted me down."'
S. D. Richards, the murderer,
passed through Omaha on the 28th
ult , aud in the evening of the same
day passed this city bound for
Kearney. A reporter from the
Omaha liepublican got on the train
and traveled with and interviewed
him as far as Valley Station, which
interview as published does uot
materially change the facts as given
elsewhere iu the Journal, except in
the number of murders committed,
and this Richards complains of, be
ing stated at nine when the actual
number confessed to is six. A spe
cial telegram from Kearney to the
Omaha Daily liepublican states that
the officers in charge of Richards,
fearing a mob might overpower
them at Kearney and lynch the
prisoner, had arranged by telegram
to have a carriage iu waiting two
miles cast of Kearney, where the
train stopped, when Richards wa6
transferred to the carriage and safe
ly conveyed to and lodged in the
Buffalo county jail. Sheriff Ander
son arrived on the train and gave
out that Richards had left at a point
east. The crowd at the Kearney
depot was disappointed, but kept
quiet. By this ruse of the officers,
all is quiet, and Richards has been
lodged safelv in jail.
The Kearney Press oi a recent
date gives a vivid description of the
appearance of the dead bodies of
Kctchum and Mitchell :
"The two bodies lie upon a table
iu the undertaking establishment of
F. J. Switz. They are burned,
blackened, mutilated beyond recog
nition, destitute of clothing, cars and
arms gone, flesh cut and gashed,
muscles contracted, and a look of
horrible agony upon the face of
each. The marks of the " loose
ropes" are upon their neck, the
marks of the hot irons are upon their
wrists and the marks of Ihe tortur
ing knife are upon their bodies.
The knite did not cut deep enough
to kill, but only deep enough to
cause the most excruciating torture
to the shrieking victim. If this af
fair were without foundation in fact
and merely the creation of the most
sensational novel writer of this
jeutury it could not be pictured so
tlOrrible as it is. Tim hndiVa trnro
saturated with oil before the match
was applied. They were hung by
their manacled wrists just high
enough to keep them from getting
away from their barbarous captors
aud then they were mutilated, cut
and gashed and tortured by flames
burning the bare flesh from which
the skin had been removed until a
death, long prayed for, came to put
a limit to their terrible sufferings."
A Mormon missionary by the
name of L. Harris, of Panguitch,
Utah, on a mission at an Indian
town in New Mexico, near Fort
Wiagatc, called Zuni, found iu near
ly every house some of the inmates
down with small-pox. He admin
istered to the sick, aud the power of
the Lord was made manifest to such
a degree that nearly all recovered.
This Mormon miracle worker goes
further, and states: "I was called
to see the dying daughter of Capt.
Locbee; I saw her gasping for
breath. I felt like administering to
her then but the Spirit of the Lord
prompted me to wait a little longer.
I waited until she did not appear to
breathe. The Spirit of the Lord
moved upon me very strong toad
minister to her, which I did; she
revived and -slept well the remain
der of the night." So eays a corre
opondent of the Omaha Bee from
Salt Lake.
A New Kallroad.
Several weeks ago Hon. S. B. Ga
I.ey, of Lincoln, the solicitor of the
Atchison & Nebraska R. R. Co.,
made Columbus a visit in company
with the engineer of the road, whose
name we do not now recall. They
bad been over a proposed extension-
line of their road, from Firth, 22
miles south of Lincoln, via 'Crete,
Seward and David City to Colum
bus. They represented that the
people along the proposed route
talked very favorably, aud stated
that they believed the road would
be built if the proper encourage
ment could be secured. They rep
resented that the stockholders of
the company had signified their
readiness to invest money iu rail
roads in Nebraska during the com
ing year, aud they were here to see
what Columbus thought of tho pro
posed route. A conference was had
with a number of our business men,
and Mr. Galcy said that in a short
time ho was to meet the officials of
the Company in Boston, aud that it
would there be determined what
would be done.
We are informed that they are
now about ready to submit a prop
osition to Platte county, which in
substance is that for $100,000 in
bonds they will complete the pro
posed line to Columbus.
We regard this as by far the best
road ever proposed to Columbus,
and when tho proposition is sub
mitted we 6hall have moro to say
of it.

The Omaha liepublican gives the
comments of the Nonpareil upon
the repeal of the posse comitaius
clause of the army bill as follows :
The law makes it a fine of $10,000
and imprisonment for two years, if
soldiers interfere in any of the
States to assist the civil officers in
making arrests. This law was pass
ed to assist the white Democrats in
the South in hurrying and driving
from the polls the ''black Republi
cans." The average representative
from the rebellious States has a
white constituency of 75,000, while
the average member irom the loyal
States from the north has a constit
uency of 132,000. This then is the
result of legislation lor the benefit
of those amnestied whites iu the
south who unfurled the Palmetto
flag, and its only effect in the north
west is to leave the hardy and
patriotic frontiersmen unprotected
in life and property. This fact is
so patent that Ihe senate passed a
bill on the 18th, providing that the
clause shall not be enforced no-ninct
the army employed in Nebraska,
Kansas, Colorado, Minnesota, Ore
gon, Nevada and (lie territories sub
ject to Indian incursions.
What a volume of comment there
is iu this brief record I Six months
ago this law was adopted, and its
result in the elections that have
since occurred has robbed the fron
tier of its protection and given such
Confederate Generals as Joe John
ston, Wade Hampton, Ben Hill,
Lamar, Chalmers and Gordon full
control of the Federal congress.
There is nothing tha tso convinces
a man that there is truth in religion
as to see true religion in Christians.

S2T Dry Goods have taken a big tumble in the Eastern Markets lately,
and as I buy my goods strictly for cash, I will give my customers the ben
efit of it, and supply them with anything in my line at much lower prices

vince yourself of the facts.
