THE MoKUNE MURDER ,
Second Pnj'sProceedings In tlioTrlnl

cil
GLENWOOD , Ia , , March 9. The old
court room In this city was to-day crowded
od with spectator. ) , anxious to witness
the opening scones of the celebrated ciao
entitled the State of Iowa va. E. D. Crops ,
Many strangers are in attendance , and
whllo but little is said , it is evident that
there Is a powerful under current of fool
ing , and while there seems to bo very
little prcjudica oitliqr in favor of oragoinst
the accuecd , it is minlfest tlut all our
people are terribly in earnest In their de
sire that the accused flnll have a fair
and impartial trial , and that exnst jus
tice shall bo done. With this in view the
court ordered forty-eight trial jurors in
addition to the rognlar panel. When
the ciaa wag formally called to-day for
trial it was found that fifty-nine juroru
were in attendanco.
The prosecution is conducted by A. B.
Thorncll , district attorney ; Sapp &
1'nsoy nnd Dailoy it Smith , of Council
Bluffs , and Watkina & Williams of this
city. The defense is represented by
Wrlcbt , Baldwin & Haldine , of Council
Bluffa ; .Indue' Ilubbard , of Ctdar llapida ,
and J. \ . Stone , of thla city.
The defendant entered the room at 0
o'clock and appeared palo but calm and
collected. Ho is accompanied by his
wife , who is however too ill to bo pres
ent in tbe court room. The defence in
terposed a challenge to the extra panel ,
and this uiotlcn was by the court aui-
taincd. About 4 o'clock twelve of the
rognlar panel vroro called into the jury
box. The examination was very rigid
and great difficulty ia experienced in
finding acceptable jurora. It is not
likely jury will bo completed to-day.
SECOND DAY.
GLENWOOD , Iowa , March 10. The
court room was comfortably filled , and
after the reading of Iho record the work
of choosing a jury was resumed at the
point nhoro it closed laet night.
The prominence of Cross1 attorneys as
railroad lawyera n the subject of eomo
comment. Judge Hubbard is rccognlzad
SB A Ipador in that line in Iowa , and hai
for many years had charge sf the legal
butineas of the Northwestern. J. Y.
Stone is a prominent C. B. & Q. attor
ney , while Wright & Baldwin have
achieved a considerable reputation in this
lino. It is also whispered that ono of
tbo principal witnesses for the state
lias gone beyond the reach
of a subpoena lasusd by our state courti ,
and ia now comfortably located in a rail
road office near Baltimore. These may
bo simply coincidences , but they excite
cimment.
Crojs is to-day accompanied by his
wife and brother , , and shown the keenest
interest in the examination of jurors.
Before 10 o'clock the state had ex
hausted its peremptory challenges , and
at 10:15 : the jury -nai sworn , and is com
posed of the following named gentlemen :
W. M. Crawford , J. E. Wlekham , I.

Llvo In Council Bluffs. I was a part
ner with McKuno in the drug business
in September 1883. I had been associ
ated with him nearly nine year * . I knew
MoKuno s habits about bneincsi hours ,
time of going to mea's ' , ote. About the
time of his death he was keeping books.
On the day of his death , we
were changing our stock and shelving
separating oar retiil from our wholesilo
business. McKuno was trying to get
out of the practice as a physician. He
began to drop his practice about a year
before his death. Ho was late leaving
the store that evening. He complained
of being tlrod. He loft the store alone.
I next saw him lying on the aidowalk ,
dead. The body was lyJn ; ; BS or eight

office. McKuno's weight at that time
was about 200 pounds. Ho itai 5 feet
lOi inches high. He was somewhat In

doing any manual labor. I think there
were three or four persons near the body
when I reached it. Ho wore a blno
blouse when ho was killed.

1'rcm the 1'oultry World ,
Iho washing of white or light-colored
fowls that are to ba sent to Iho shows has
been practiced for a nuxbar cf years. It
09mr , however , not to have been n role
( reedars of other varieties , light or partl-
olorod , If not white , to wash their birds
lef ore shipping them , though such a prop-
\ration certainly does no harm. Wasti
ng a bird is a veiy simple thing to do ,
> at it takes a little care and knowledge
o do the thing propstly. Any ono can
wash a fowl , but a green hand going slm-
My by rule of thumb in likely to turn out
> ad work. The bird * should be taken
nto a clean , warm room , and there wash
ed ono at a time. The only things needed
ire a sponge , soap , warm water and
once clean pieces ofold flannel or blanket.
The bird should bo placed in a tub of
ilcod-warm water , And proatod down
gently till its b ek ia level with the water.
A clear soap suds should then be made
and rubbed throaghly in to the fkln by
nnnlng tbo rpango In the direction of the
eathort , working clear do.im to the feet.
3reat cira must ba taken' not to break
the web of the feathers , and under no
circumstances should tha spooga bo rub
ied np the feathers. When this is done
the fowl is taken out and In cold water to
remoyo the BO P , and then carefully dried
wit.i the flannel.
"Harmless nnd effective"
is the ex
pressed opinion of physicians of Rod Star
Cough cine. No bid effect * .
In England , the medical profession is
recruited almost exclusively from the
middle classes of society. Among the
aristocracy the idea still prevails that but
three profeasiona ate opsn to the Bciona
of the nobility. Those are the anny , the
chut eh and the law , and a recent writer
records that ho has yet ti learn tlut any
one born with tDialled blue blood In hts
veins lua hitherto walked to the hospital
and become a physician.
An old gentlenun , well known In De
Molnes for his consistent piety , was rui
over by a luck oa the s'rctts ' of tha
town tha ether day , ipreadirg tbo ol <
gentleman over several square jards o

sulphuric profanity was evidence that h

A reporter who wont dbwn to the

Aa is usual where there is live stock in

SOME OTHERS.
New York conUios a gie ter numbei
of rich women than any other city in thi
world except London , and even tno Brit
iah cipltal cannot boast of much greate
distinction. Leaving out Victoria , wh
ia not a Londoner , and B1r . Burdett
'Cou's ' ' , it ia not probable tlat there is
woman in that famous centra of wealth
who can driw na hoary n chock as Mrc ,

WEALTH AND MATRIMONY.
Miss Kitty Wolfe , it Is eald , receives
hrouch the post office several cll'ors of
marriage every week , nud no doubt most
if the others are also favorably noticed
iy foituno hantorp. The oldest woman
of wealth in thla city is Nancy Trotip ,
who is now nearly ! )0. ) She owns a half
nillion of Fifth Avenue property , this
) olng part of an old landed estate.
'ho Narsowsrthy ladles are also
among the millionaires , and other
tpulout names might bo mentioned which
rom a s'riklng c ntrnst with the mitor'es
of the myriads of starving noedlo-womon
rhloh now awaken public sympathy ,
ilrs. A. T. Stowait fools very deeply the
loath of Mrs , Judge Hilton , who was an
) ld friend , and hence the loss is one of
rreparable character. MM. Hilton was
ister of the late James H. Banker , whoso
icuth occurred only two weeks ago. How
emarkablo it is to ace n brother and
later , afior living so many years , both
amoved in so short a timo. Mis Stowatt
s now in a very lonely condlt'on. ' The
oath of her brother ( the late Charles
Clinch ) waa a tcvtrj blow , to which is
ow added the loss of a well-tried friend.
'ho Stewart palaca is now to a great do-
; reo vacant , and Its owner , indeed , now
inly occupies asuitof apartments , leaving
ho rest of the structure in magnificent
eaolatlon. How much this raminds cue
f what the pools calls
"The wretched impotence of gold. "
THE FE3J1VE CROOK.
to Only Moans by Which He r. '
Suppressed.
) eUoit Ftee Press.
"Did you ever notice that desperate
iritnluals , whether frao or behind tha
> ara of a prison , are never satisfied with
here surroundings ? " asked a Phikortcn
etoctivo of a Free Prcas reporter at the
lusioll House yesterday.
"Theso fellows wouldn't bo satisfied if
liey were rolling in wealth and had noth-
ng to do but spend it. They have such
i natural aptitude for crime that all the
a ir our congressmen and legislators can
> ass will have no effect ubon them , and
u a stata like Michigan wheru capital
mnlshmont IB unknown they arojlikely to
csort to anything , murder Included , in
rdor to accomplish their ends. They do
ot mind a few months' confinement , be-
iauao it affords them an opportunity to
latch up fresh plane. Take these persona
who have just escaped from Jacitou.
Some of them , perhaps , weio not'accom -
) lishod crooks when they were sent there
mt it did not take them very long to
earn how to escape , and now tney are as
ad as the worst ,
"There is a great deal of dilTjrencj ba-
, woen the chronic jail birds , who crowds
ur penal institutions simply because they
ire suto cf an abundance of food and very
[ ttlo work and cracksmen and crooks who
; o there involuntarily. The former can't
> o driven out , even if the jail doors are
i rown wide open , but it ia a hard job
o hang rn to the latter unless they are
contlDiially watched , and even than thry
will play up tick or adopt some rns3 to
allay the fiujplcloris ot the prison officials
and take advantage of the first opportu
nity that presents itself to make tneir oa
capo.
"One hardened wretch who has no fear
if prison before his eyes will give the
best organized police force in the country
more trouble than all petty cases that
comes up in a year. Their daring deeds
and miraculous escapes Incites othcn to
adopt the same means of nuking a living
and the mere force of example ia the
caueo of the increase in crime. If I had
my way about it I would hang three or
[ our of them juat to keep things moving ,
and the wbolesamo effect it would bring
about would , in mv opinion , astoniih both
police and and criminals. Moral ; euaeion
.s played our , and the mora atringout the
method the mora perfect the cure. These
Jackson fellows will gradually drift
around from one city to another till they
are ariostod and identified. The life man
will be no woreo off than Iho day ho es
caped , except that ho may bo made to
vork a little harder and a closer watch
cept upon his actions , while the time
men will laugh at the Idea of having a few
years added to tbolr sentences. Had the
nnrdorer of the Detroit policeman bout
ranged , as ho ehould have been , there
would have been one less to look 'after ,
and the country could vety well afford
do without him and othcrj of the Ilk are
low having a good time at the expense of
; ho overburdened t pyers. "
"Aro you looking up any cases
Detroit ? " asked the reporter.
"No , I am hero on private bimness ,
and Detroit is about the last city I should
I'lsit in a professional capacity , You
lave enough crooks here , but bolng so
close to Canada it is a hard job to run
down a criminal in Detroit. "
Hlnco Pie.
Somebody in vriling of this pie has
called it ' the dovll'a compound. " The
effects of long indulgence in it are auch
ia sometimes warrant this title. The too
iiearty consumer of mines pie and similar
usuries la sure , sooner or later , to be
afllicted with dyepnpsia. But dyspepsia
will yield to Brown's Iron Bit era , the
great iron tinlo. Mr. and Mrs. Pad-
deck , of E t Dalavan , Win , , botli testify
that this medicine cured them , cot only
of dyspepsia , bub aho of kidney disease.
