It is a black Christmas for the dead girl
nt the morgue , nnd a blacker ono for the
principals in the criminal practice that
brought to the girl a week of hornblo
ngony that ended her shame and the
crime , nil in her death , that has been the
topic of conversation on the streets for
a tiny. When Deputy District Attorney
Htcnrns took active stops in tlie night for
the apprehension of Dr. Cooley there
wns not n.s much known ns has been de
veloped since , but ccrtninly cnouph was
known then to warrant the slop and ns u
consequence the alleged aboitlonist wns
taken by night into Ciistody and will
have nn opportunity in the courts of the
state to explain the death of Lizzie
Uctikloman. At 10 o'clock yesterday
the coroner's jury , composed of six citi
zens , resumed the examination Inokcn
off Uio nitrht beforo. Tlio testimony
given by Mr. Wilson stated that the girl ,
who worked in his family , had been taken
sick on the. 17th and died on the 2 < 5d. Ho
had suspected all was not right , but had
not taken any step.s to Investigate. A
bottle of ergot hntl been found in the
girl's possession , which in itself wns a
matter of grave suspicion. Mr. Wil
son tetlifled that Mrs. Cobson ami
a friend of the sick girl named
Hatlio Carey had been allomlmg thogiil
during her sickness. The girl before her
death made dying statements to this Mrs.
Cobon and also to Mrs. Wilson , the lat
ter having not yet testified , Mrs. Cobson
recited in her testimony before Uio core
ner's jury that the girl lying dead had toltl
her that an abortion li .d been performed
upon her by Doctor S. 0. Cooley , and
that from it she was dying. The most
sensational testimony of the day , however -
over , wns that given by the girl. Hatlio
Carey , whom it seems has boon a friend
anil something of a companion of the
dead girl , and who throw much light upon
the easo. The testimony of this girl ,
Hatlio Carey , was thai she wont with the
dead girl to the ollleo of Doctor .Cooley ,
ami that in her presence a bargain was
made in which Doctor Cooley agreed to
perform the abortion for the sum of $ 'J5
and that at the. time he was paid $11 on
the contract , Iho girl further testifying
that iu her presence ho , with an instru
ment , performed the act , aud she identi
fied tno instrument and the doctor. The
girl also testified that the dead girl told
her that the fattier of the unborn child
was Charles Barr , of Nebraska City , and
the girl , lialtio Carey , also testified
that the dead girl had been out nights
nnd on familiar terms apparently with n
traveling man named Fuller , and with a
man in thn city named Charles Humble.
A large number were present at the in-
quesl through tlio morning , and the
taking of testimony was withhold atthat
hour that an autopsy might bo hold on
the remains to develop the fact of the
cause of the death through the expert
testimony of physicians. The coroner
therefore in the afternoon called Drs ,
" "Carter , Lane and Hoover to hold thn
autopsy , : ind tlio jury was given a recess
until their findings were promulgated.
When Detective Pound arrested Dr.
Cooley in the night lie took his man to
Justice Brown's office , who had issued
the warrant. The judge passed the
matter until morning , and Pound kept
his prisoner at his ollice in the Richards'
block until morning , when Justice Brown
arraigned him on thoconiplaint as issued ,
and as the coroner's jury hud not yoc
returned their verdict ho held the doctor
for a preliminary hearing Monday morn
ing under $3OUOJondh ) , which werogivon
by the doctor , with Bartholomew Cox
anil L. W. Bilhngsly as sureties.
The autopsy held bv the physicians at Iho
coroner's inquest developed the fact that
tliu mrl had died from the use of instru
ments in performing an abortion , and
that they were usoduy Dr. Cooley to thu
end of causing tlio death of the girl. This
ihiding is in accordance with the facts
elicited before theljiiry in the examination
of witne.sscb and transfers the ease to the
courts , the hearing of Cooley being set
for Monday.A .

A Hcmnrknblo Sccno nt .1 Murder
Trial CauCcsslnc tlio Crime After
Clcnkcdby tlioCotirt Ills
KnO nt Hot Springs.
Kunsas City Tunes : "Charley Fonlk
was the real name of Charles Wntson , who
wns shot and killed nt Hot
Sprlnpq In the fall of 1333 by
a negro policeman , lie was n
baekcr of the Doran Rang which hot
into n hnck occupied by the 1'lynn broth
ers , on the streets of Hot Sprlnga In 1831 ,
and killed John anil William Flynn ami
the hack driver. Later ho had a snoot
ing scrnpo with Max A. Harris , editor of
the Horseshoe , now defunct. You will
remember tli o Incidents , which were
published in every paper in the country
nt the time and which gave I'oulk , or
Watson as he was then called , tome
prominence , But the most Interesting
incidents of his career happened in a
small town In t'onrmylrnnin.
"Foulk , I think , was born in Carlisle ,
Pn. , a small town of about 10.000 inhabi
tants. When I first know him , which
was shortly after the war , ho was run
ning n gambling house In Carlisle , which
Wis then about as rapid a little place ns
you can find almost anywhere in the
west now. Foulk was then n gambler of
the 'Doe' Slater typo. Ho was tall ami
handsome , cool as nn icielo , dro'scd in
exquisite taste , and his mumicr nnd con
versation were every inch the elegant ,
rcliticd gentleman. Ill : * friends ulwuys
lauded his bravery , while his enemies as
serted that he was only brave when he
had 'the ' drop. ' At nnv rate there were
few who over invited his ill-will.
"At the time I speak of the barracks at
Carlisle , whore the Indian school now is ,
were occupied as an artilleiy post , and
the soldiers aud students from Hie south ,
who were attending Dickinson , inndo
things pretty lively aud helped I lie gain
biers to live.
'One morning : ix soldier was found with
n bullet through his heart on si bridge
over a small stream on tlio roatl from the
barracks to the town. Foulk and tt fel
low-gambler , whoso name i have forgot
ten , were arrested and tried for murder ,
and it was in the course of the trial of his
fellow-gambler that Fould was the c.ivuu
of ono of the most sensational incident
that over happened , in an American cottr
room. The men were given separat
trials , and Foulk was tried first and ace
quitted on : n undoubted alibi. J5y the
way , Foulk was a lirni Ucliover in the
'Tony Wellor' doctrine , and in all the
scrapes in which ho was concerned ho
never failed to prove an alibi.
The evidence in the trial of Foulk's
supposed accomplice was damaging to
the prisoner at the bar. One lady who
lived near the scene of the shooting iden
tified the prisoner , anil swore that she
heard n pistol shot , ran to the door nnd
saw him running halloas from the scene
of the murder. She was certain that it
was. the accused man , because there was
a lighted gas lamp near her door which
enabled her to get a good view of his fea
tures. Oilier evidence equally strong
was _ introduced by the stale , and a con
viction seemed assured.
When tlio defense opened no ono 1 > o-
licvcd that the ea o made by the .state
could bo shaken. Foulk was the first
witness for the defense , and as it was
known that ho was to testify tno court
room was crowded to suffocation. As ho
was sworn and took the stand there was
perfect quiet. Everyone had an idea
that tlioro wais somethingooming. but no
ono wns prepared for what hapnoncd.
As Foulk took Ins scat on the witness
stand lie turned to the stern , gray-haired
judge , and , in a clear , calm voice , that
could bo heard in every part of the room ,
said :
" 'Judge , before I testify in the case I
want to ask you a question. Can I over
be tried again for tlio killing of that
soldier ? '
Tor a moment the silence was almost
painful. People iu the rear of the room
placed their hands back of their heads in
order to hear bettor , but no ono but the
veneraDto judge seemed to have guessed
what was coming. Ho evidently did , for
he replied in solemn , severe tones that
were rundcred all the moro impressive by
tlio de.it nly stillness :
" 'So far as human law is concerned ,
Mr. Foulk , you nro a free man. No
earthly tribunal can try you again. Tor
any part you may have taken in this
murder you will have to answer only to
the great Judge before whom wo must all
bo arraigned. Between YOU and your
Maker this case now rests. '
" 1 heard those worths , anil I shall never
forgot them. Foulk was the only person
in tlio room who was not afl'ucted. As
coolly as if ho was talking to a circle ol
friends he replied :
" 'Thank you , Judge. You arc a man
of honor ami know the law , and I behove
you. I wish to eoh'innly swear , then ,
that 1 killed that soldier. You have nu-
quitted the wrong man. "
"Tlio etli'ct ol this cool , deliberate
statement , made in a voice that never
trembled and could bo hoard by everyone
ono in the court , room , may bo imagined.
At once the silence was broken by ex
clamations of .surprise and indignation ,
which , however , wore quleklvsupprcssed
by the judge. Then , as coolly as he had
mailu the contcssion , 1'otilk told
the story of the murdor. Ho
saitl that as he was crossing
the bridge Uo met tha soldier going
in nn opposite direction. They were old
enemies and had recently had a quarrel
.over the green cloth. Foulk said as soon
as tlio ioldior saw him lie drew his sabro
and started for him. 'Not wishing to
kill him. Foulk continued , 'I drdw a little
old fashioned popper-bor and shot at
him four times , but ns ho still kupt com
ing at mo I jumped oil' the bridge , drew
niv 45 , and killed him. I did it in .self
'
tle'fonso. If 1 had not killed him ho would
have killed me.1
"Tho evidence of the lady who swore
thatfiho saw the prisoner at the bar run
ning hatluFS past hnr door was easily ex
plained and furnished another instance
of Foulk's wonderful nervn. When ho
jnmpml oil' the bridge Ills hat fell oil' and
flouted down the stream. When tlio sol
dier fell Foulk ran down the street , hut
did not see the lady standing in the door.
When ho had gone a little way ho remem
bered that his name was written in
Ills hat and that if it wn ? ioiintl it would
bo itPod as evidence against him. Wait
ing for a moment , nnd heeing that no ono
had been attracted by the shots , ho delib
erately returned to thu scene of ( ho shoot
ing , waded down the stream , found Ids
hat , anil went up-town through an alley ,
That was nerve. The lady was honest in
her testimony , but she was simply mistaken -
taken , ns was afterwards proved conclu
sively. Of coureo tiio defendant was dis
charged. As to Foitlu'fl alibi , well , ho
could always get an alibi when ho wanted
one. His story of the killing was after
wards proved to bo exactly correct ,
Altogether , the scone in the court room
was a very dramatic one , mul I doubt if
it has over been equaled.

As the season advances , the pains and

Sartmpanlla is n specific for rheumatism
wo doubt if there is , or can be , such a
remedy. But the thousands bcnefittcd
by Hood's SarsaDarilla , warrant ns in
urging others who suffer from the rheu

Chicago News : 'The cultivation of

branch of farming , " saitl a north side
chair manufacturer , when asked where
nil the material usntt in chair and basket
making como from , "and a very profit
able branch , to , " ho milled , with an in
trospective turning of his eyeballs.
"There are willow-farms in a good many
states , but untU recently Now York took
the lead. There are siMccn farms de
voted exclusively t6 willow raising in
Wayne county , tfiat state. Of late , now-
over , Georgia has been coming rapidly
to tlio front , nnd it looks as if she would
become the great willow state. I have
just returned home from n visit to a farm
in Twiggs county , Georgia. Twiggs isn't
a bail name for a willow county , la il ?
"Tho labor of planting , citltlvatingand
harvesting the willow is very light and is
mostly dona by women and children , the
prolific broods of little darkies proving
very useful. Low , swampy land is the
best for raising willows , but they will
grow almost anywhere. In planting ,
small shoots or twigs are used , and the
cost is about $15 per acre. From a single -
glo planting crops may be gathered for
years. No replanting is required , and
tl.o only expense is in gathering and
trimming. The former costs about six
dollars per acre moro. An average yield
is about five tons per aere , worth $15 to
$1(1 ( per ton in the rough.
"Tho switches are out from four to
seven feet long. They are placed in bun
dles like sheaves or wheat , and , when the
harvest Is over , are taken tv the stripping-
building and soaked in a vat tilled with
water. The large ends are limn placed
irt a peculiar little machine , which losens
tlio bark for a couple of inches. The
switches were afterward laid , ono by one ,
in the strippers , and , with a pair of pli
ers , are pulled through with ono jerk.
Tins process takes nfl'tho bark ami loaves.
The switches are then wiped with woolen
cloths , bundled , and laid away to dry.
The leaves and bark are dried ami baled
and command a big price. They nro used
iu making certain kinds of medieino and
liniment. The bark ami leaves pay for
the entire crop.
"Tlio big profits made have attracted
a good many jnto the bu lness of raising
willows , ami in the last two years prices
have dropped SJO per cent. There is
plenty of margin yet , however , anil the
indiHtry promises to rival peppermint-
growing in prolltablcnoss. "
The Horse Alter Driving.
Some farmers , after driving their
teams in the slush and mud in the win
ter , think if they dash a few pails of
water over the horsefc limbs upon return
ing , bufort putting the team in the stable
they have lest the poor brutes in the best
Cossiblc condition until morning. The
ict is , it would be far bettor to turn the
animals in the stable and leave them ,
mud and all. until it was fully dry. There
would be far less danger of .scratches ,
mud-fevers , and grcaso than by the plan
of washing. If the legs are washed they
should bo then rubbed until quite dry-
no easy task. If left only partially dry
the most serious consequences are likely
to ensue.
When a team is loft with the hair im
perfectly dried n chill is almost sure to
ensue. Ills not unlike tlio animals , cs-
peeiajly if exhausted , will bo found next
morning still * and with the limbs swollen ,
since the exhaustion of the system | ; ic-
vents healthy reaction of the extremities.
The best plan is to wash the limbs with
warm water and them loosely bandage
them with strips of flannel. These may
be ten feet iu length by three inches wide
and rolled tightly. Commence at the
fetlocks and bandage loosely , lapnmg
one edge over the other , and making a
half-turn fold ol the bandage when joints
are passed to prevent the slipping of the
bandage. In the morning the limbs will
generally be found all riulit for cleaning.
If this plan is not adopted it is altogether
belter to let the team stand muddy as to
the limbs until inurninc , when the dry
mud may casilv cleaned away , and with
little ilanger of injury to the team if the
stable is warm , not subjects to draughts ,
and a liberal amount of bedding b given.
Tlrcslinc ! Corn.
A now mode of shelling corn by pass
ing sttilks and all through an ordinary
threshing machine is said to work most
most satisfactorily. The shelled corn is
delivered clear as is other grains , the
stalks arc broken and shredded , to the
amount of ton acres per day , and whore
the crop is good average the corn may
be shelled at a cost of four cents per
bushel.
While this means of shelling corn will
not bo available in the great corn-grow
ing regions of the west where the stalks
are le i standing and the corn husked on
the hill , tlio plan seems to oll't-r advan
tage whore tlie corn ib cut anil shocked ,
tlio fodder tormina n commodity .second
in value only to the grain , and especially
so in the fact that the stalks are prepared
in a most perfect manner for feeding.
Any pen-on who has husked corn on the
hill and trout the shook knows that
double the number of bushels can be
husked from the hill , per day , than from
the .shock , and that the fodder run
through the thresher is in excellent
shape to handle if thn statement as to
preparation may bo relied on.

Live Stock Journal , are various sonio
having benefited by ( hiving silugo ; others
had to use a largo quantity of purchased
food , brewers' grains proving very help
ful in several instances ; while hay and
grain were used to a much greater extent
than usual. In the preparation of food ,
too , advantage was found by pulping
and dialling ; but it seems that those suf
fered least who had provided a suc
cession of catch crops for spring con
sumption. Kohl rab ! helped several
prominent stockmen greatly through the
winter The well known Ulmrjns How
ard knows of uo crop so valuable find
early and cheaply cultivated us the cab
bage , which has greatly helped him
through many dillloult summers with all
kinds of stock. Several others speak
very highly of cabbage ns stock feed In
winter ; some saying that it Is n very
reliable plant , for "however great
the drouth , it produces a succulent
growth. "
Rnrly Lmmbs.
The farmer near largo cihea who
raises lambs for marketing early in tha
spring gets far better prices than ho
whose lambs come nfter or about the
time of crass. But in order to succeed
ho must have a lambing place where the
temperature is above the freezing point.
In extreme cold weather the lambing-
room should bo comfortably warmed.
The young lamb is most susceptible to
cold of any other young animal , except
the .young pig. After the lamb has
sucked once it can easily stand cold , nnd
when a week old It does not ca lly suc
cumb to extremes of weather. The ewe ,
also , at lambing time feels the cold in *
tensely , nnd nt such times will not take
care of the lamb. Often she will refuse
to own it. Since , however , the lamb can
stand and suck the dilh'ciilty is past , nnil
nnd tlio young at ten week's old is nc
tivo ami able to take cnro of itself. There
Is no less necessity of care white lambs
mo very young in the sptiiig. Moro
lambs nre lost by being chilled imme
diately after yeaning than from all other
cau cs whatever.
The lambs for early killing may come
at any time from January 1 to the middle
of February. The ewes , ot course , must
bo kept by themselves , nnd before yean
ing time should each haven separate pen.
Tins should bo warm not le s than 00 ° .
\ \ hen the young is three days old the
owes and lambs nitty bu removed to the
pens with the other owes and voting
lambs. If no provision of roots lias
been provided for the ewes during winter ,
the fond should be a fail proportion of
.succulent foot ) , as sweet ensilage , tor
instance. It is bettor , however , that
carrots or mangels be provided , so that
about live pounds per day may be fed to
the suckling ewes in connection with hay
and grain.
ScnsonnMo Hints nnil SuirrjOHtlouH.
A small night lamp placed under the
drinking fountain will prevent the water
from freezing in the poultry house.
Cows that have no bedding are often
injured in the knees by getting up or
down , especially if the iloor * be wet and
slippery.
A man who takes to farming because
ho has failed at everything else should
not expect any better success than in
other opitri'tions.
This is an excellent season for repair
ing the fences and buildings. If de
ferred , the spring with its hurry will al
low no time for such work.
Beets and parsnips may be kept fresh
through the winter by packing in . and.
This will preserve their flavor and keep
them from dryimi up.
Cut out the lower limbs from the ever
green trees if too thick. Trim tlio hedges
and get them in shape. This is thea -
son for doing all such work.
Kerosene will cure the flcnly legs on
fowls. Anoint the ICJM once a week with
koro eno for three or four weeks and the
cgs will become perfectly clean.
The practice of washing sheep is being
discarded. Nothing is gained by so doing ,
while it is injurious to the animals as
well as to those who have the disagree
able work to perform.
If your rye seed did not get in soon
enough to como up do not disturb it. Tno
chankos are that it will show up well in
the soring. Seed often remains in the
ground all winter without injury.
Do not fonret to insure your buildings.
There is no knowing when accidents may
happen. Many prosperous farmers have
been ruined by neglecting to have their
buildings and implements secured
against loss.
Too nflich corn to the female causes
weak ojlaprings and milk fever , espec
ially is this the case with cows and
owes. Food that la rich iu oil is never
.suitable for blooding stock. The best
grains is oat , either whole or in the
ground condition.
Tlio Berkshire is n black hog , but is of
pure blood ; the black skin comes ofl'ui
clressiiur , leaving n clear white , which is
generally preferred. For the general
farmer this breed may justly be placed
along with tlm Poland-China at the head.
Cows need light , not only for their own
health and comfort but because good
butter cannot bo made from the milk of
cows kept in dark stables. Air , light ,
cleanliness and warmth are four essen
tials of a cow stable where cows are
kept for profit.
Farmers and d.iirymcn must not ulncc
too much reliance in the oleomargarine
law raising the price of butter. If belter
prices are to bo had they arc for good
butter alone , for the clay when carelessly
made and badly kept b'tittcr will sell at a
paying price has gone. In fact , nothing
to-day helps the aloof oleomargarine so
much as tlio presence of this poor dairy
butter in our markets. Consumers want
pure cutter , but where Ihey cannot got il
sweet and pleasant to the taste they will
of nccc sii\ \ take oleomargarine
