The said defendant , Edward Walsh

and touching the facts connected will

as follows ; "You have no right t <

stated in Hubstanco , as follows to sail
juror : "Wo made a .mistake putting
you on the jury , " and thereafter stat
ed to said jury in eubstanoo as fol
lows : "You must look out and be
careful. There ia no man on th' '

void.This
This plea in abatement was opposot
by the district attorney and its argu
ment was postponed.
OHOUOi ; OHOOMH PUT ON TRIAL ,
Thu C.IBO of the state against Georg
Grooms was next called. Grooms was
arrested yesterday on an indictmon
for "asHault with intent to kill,1
which offense is charged to have beet
committed ut the B. & M. dump 01
the Wednesday when the disturbanci
occurred there. This was ono ot the las
if not the last indictment found by th
grand jury , which closed its work on
/rueaday / , and this beginning at th
tail end of the indictments
appoarei
not a liHlo strange , This is moro s
the case , as it is understood that tlu
court had consented to try Van Nor
man first. 'Van Norman lies boon i
jail under indictment
for the aam
oflonso for.soveral days , not being abl
to procure Uail.
When Groom's case was callot
.ludgo Savage asked who appeared fo
the defense.
The prisoner replied that ho had IK
counsel , as ho had no money to era
ploy legal assistance.
The judijo stated that ho had un
dorstood tlut Col. Smytho was to ap
pear for the d fence.
Grooms replying in the negative tko
court then appointed Mr. Olarkson to
conduct the defence. Upon boinu
appointed , Mr. Ohiikson arose am
aid : "Your honor , I do not know
anything of the merits of this casoant
I am not prepared to go to trial ]
would therefore ask the court to granl
mo until to-morrow morning to net
ready to conduct this defence
Judge Bavugo said that the case had
boon ordered for that afternoon and
it would not be fair to postpone it
any further. The prisoner should
have obtained counsel. The prisoner
then stated that up tu lOjHO that
morning ho had supposed that Col
Smytho would defend him , but at
that time the latter refused to do so
The court said : "Tho case will
proceed , The j ury were accordingly
worn , and the trial was commenced
1 no district attorney
opened with a
oinowhaf extended speech fin which
ho detailed some of the circumstances
loading to thotroublo at thodurau.
Hovon witnesses were sworn , all of
whom testified as to ( heir knowledge
PI the attray , but 110110 of whom were 7
able toi definitely swear to the defend ,
ants aiming or assaulting miy ono.
Court adjourned at 4 o'clock until
" " .Paot mo this
morning , to i Jhw
Mo defense an opportunity to aubpojna
wttiiwsos. When the
case opened
lot wHnew for tlio prisoner .Lad
wen mmtnoned , thu deputy .ehoruT
| taling that ho had 'ooon busy hunt
ing up witnesses , m the case of Bar
ney Shannon.
The mlsniidcni.liS\ding about Col.
Smjtlio i\ppparVrg for the defense in
thoewioof Gixjonis appears to have
oomu from the fact that , although the
prisoner is on trial on an indictment
of the vntno nature aa that againnt
WalaU , Knight , O'Keofe , and otliorn ,
at Uio same time ho is not n member
of the labor union , and did not par-
tioipato in the parade. It was the de
sire , therefore , on the p rt of the
union , that Col. Bmytho , who appears
for most of their indicted members ,
should not defend Grooms , for whom
they did not wish to wsumo any re
sponsibility.
When court convened yoatorday
there waa a largo attendance. The
sealed verdict of the jury WM pre
sented nnd opened , As predicted by
those who know most about the case
the verdict was "polity. " Upon this
being rendered the counsel for the de
fense arose and requested permission
to withdraw the plea of not guilty in
the four remaining indictments and
substituted the plea of puilty.
While this plea wan btinR entered
the prisoner sat entirely unmoved and
demonstrated none of that "harrow
ing anxiety" that waa reported to bo
weiuhing down his mind and making
him sick n week ago.
The case for which the jury had
boenaummoncd , which was to bo tried
on the second indictment , was called ,
and A juror drawn , which permitted a
continuance of the case until the Juno
term. A t that tinio the plea of guilty
will probably be entered.
Siurt will bo sentenced at the con
clusion of business by the court this
turm. His sentence will probably 1m
the fine of $200 on oaoh indictment
and thu cunt of the case which has
been tried.
OMAHA ABROAD.
A Highly Sensational Episode
ia a California Court.
The .BoproBontatlvo of tbo Gate City
Comes Out Ahead.
The following item from The San
Francisco 'Chronicle will bo interesting -
ing to many of our readers who are
acquainted with the parties named :
"Robert T. Maatorson , a butcher
employed in the slaughter houses at
San Francisco , and Jaa. Spruhan , re
cently from Omaha , Maateraon'a
father-in-law , wore examined before
Judge Ilix upon counter charges of
assault with deadly weapons. Some
time ago Spruhan , who was a janitor
in a government building in Omaha ,
was informed by letter that Mastorson
waa treating his wife in a very brutal
manner , and ho came to this city to
BOO about it. The matter was ar
ranged to the satisfaction of all par-
tus , and Masteraon promised to behave -
have in the future. A couple of weeks
ago Musterson invited his father and
mother-in-law to visit him at South
San Francisco , and they went , accom
panied by their grandchild , a boy often
ton years. After u general conversa
tion , during which several pitchers of
boor were emptied , Mnj. Spruhan
made some romaik about Mrs. Master-
son which lei to a row , during the
progress of which Mastorson knocked
down his wife and his mocher-in-Iaw.
Spruhan , after remonstrating , took
his grandson by , the hand and was in
the act of leaving , when Mastorson ,
who had armed himself with a revolver
ver , came up to his faihor-in-Iaw ,
and placing the weapon within
a few inches of the back of his
neck , fired. The bullet grazed the
nock , but so much blood ilowed from
the wound that those who saw it
thought that Spruhan was killed.
The boy believing that his grand
father was dying picked up a hatchet ,
which ho throw at Mastorson , but
missed him. Masterson then at
tempted to shoot tho-boy , and would
have done so had not Spruhan at
that moment risen to his feet and dis
armed him , On the other hand ,
Mastered ! ! , endeavored to make it
appear that Spruhan had declared
that ho had not come from Omaha for
nothing , and that ho had threat
ened to kill his son-in-law be
fore ho wont back ; also
that Spruhan and his wife
witu had advised Mrs. Mastcrson to
poison her husband's soap , or put a
pistol to his head when ho was asleep
and blow his brains out , but in this ,
outside of his own testimony and that
of his wife , ho failed , lie also claim
ed that ho shot his father in-law bo-
causa ho stood before him with an up-
lifttd saw , and was about to Jeuvo his
head open. In describing how ho
stood ill relation to his father-in-law
at the time ho shot , ho placed himself
face to face with that individual , after
which ho was unable to account for
the wound in the back of thu nook ,
and the ponder burn on thu back of
Spruhan'a coat collar. M latoiflon was
hold to answer , nnd the charge against
Spruhan vui dismissed. "

CHAPTER SECOND.
In the Story of the Coatenmal
Excelsior Hoof Point.
Facta Almost na Strong aa Holy Writ.
Our readers will doubtless remem
ber nn artiolo that appeared in these
columns a few days sinoo commenda
tory to Messrs. Hawthorn it Bro. , in
ventors of the celebrated Centennial
Excelsior roof paint , iri which wo
promised to substantiate by totters ,
telegrams and otherwise , everything
claimed by the Hawthorns aa to their
character as business men , and the
reliability of the article of which they
are the manufacturers.
Wo would respectfully ask those interested -
torostod to boar in mind that the letters -
tors and telegrams which wo produce
below wore not written to the Haw
thorns themselves , but in answer to
inquiries sent to thu authors by differ
ent parties in regard to the merit of
the centennial paint. The inventors
do not ask the people to take their
word in this regard , but they do most
earnestly request all desiring to learn
of the merits of their invention to
write or telegraph at their expense.
They do not desire to dictate to whom
they should write. They simply give
you a pamphlet containing tbo names
of prominent property owner * who
have had rcofs covered with the Haw
thorn pint , for periods ranging from
seven to thirteen years.
KtcrmiNo AOKNTS.
Soon after their arrival in this city
the members of the firm of Haw-
thori's , Di > itrichs & Ogden , of
Gatesbiirg , Illinois , secured the
the BorvrcB of Messrj. Funk and
Shockoy as state agents for their
Centennial Excelsior roof paint.
These gentlemen have removed to
Omaha with their families. They
have oomo to stay and already have
men at work and largo contracts on
hand for immediate attention. They
have established their oflico ut room
Nn. 6 , Creighton Block , and their
ofH > o houis are from 8 to 0 a. m. and
5 to G p. m.
With those preliminaries wo will in-
troduoo the proof of the claims here
tofore made for this wonderful article
and it is remarkable that not ono
word of dissatisfaction can bo found
in any of the letters which have been
received at this office.

ence of Mr. Gable with the artiolo :
KKOKDK , Iowa , Sept. 19 , 1881.
Jacob Uablo , Lancaster , Pa. :
Dear Sir-Will you kindly tell mo
what you know of your experience
with the Centennial Excelsior Rjol
Paint , made by the Messrs. Haw
thorn , of your place , which I have
hoard highly spoken of. I desire , es
pecially , to know of its durability , as
compared with other paints upon other
tin roofs , at least as far as your own
personal experience goes.
Yours truly ,
CIIAS. P. BIROK.
The following is Mr. Gable's reply
LANCASTER , Pa. , Sept. 20,1881
Messrs. Kellogg , Birgo & Co. :
Yours of the 18th received. I was
out of town for ten days or you woulc
have received an' answer sooner. Ir
answer I would say , I have a tin reel
which gave mo a great deal of trouble
up to 1874. It is a flat scam roof.
The expansion and contraction started
the seams and made it leak. In the
fall of 1874 I had it painted with the
Hawthorn paint and have not touched
it since that. I had it painted every
two years with the Ohio paint. Since ,
I had another of ether roofs painted
and believe it the beat paint out for
that purpose.
Yours respectfully ,
JAOOJI GAULK.
BETHLEIIEM , Pa. , Sept. 21,1881.
Messrs. Knickerbocker & Hoddor :
( Jents In reply to yours of the
10th I have briefly to say I had the
Hawthorn Centennial proof paint ap
plied to all the roofs of all the semi "
nary buildings and to several roots
then under my charge , some several
years since. I was much pleased with
it. It proved bettor than paint. It
was much cheaper * The roofs are
good to this day.
Yours respectfully ,
FRANCIS WOLLK ,
Bishop of the Moravian church fand
professar of Female Seminary of
Bethlehem , Pa.
Mr. F. B. Soetey. of Lafayette ,
wrote to Mr. Joseph Royer , of Lin
caster , a prominent wholesale confec
tioner , and received the following
reply ;
The Hawthorn paint has been on
the roof of my house for seven years
and is good to-day , I think it just the
thing for a roof. Jos. K. ROVER ,
Mr. Joseph Ogden lately called "
upon the editor of the Aurora , III , ,
Beacon and requested him to write to
parties in Pennsylvania to learn some
thing of the merits or demerits of the
article ho handles , and in reply the
Boucon man received the following
lutttr :
'COLUMBIA , Pa. , Sept 19,1881. J
Messrs , Knickerbocker & Hoddor ;
GENTH Yours of the IDih inst. re
ceived. In reply would say that Haw
thorn's Centennial Roof Paint has
been used by a number of our people ,
also on our public buildings , viz. : the
opera house , M. E. church and par
sonage and a great many private dwel
lings , and as far as I know has given 1
jntiro satisfaction. I had several
liouaos painted with it some five years
ar moro ago and they still appear to J
bo in good order. Yours ,
A. BRUNER ,
Lumber and Coal Dealer.
