He thinks a kick from a good healthy

Collector Hodges sold over .2.000

Local scares were scarce yesterday. We
heard of but one case in Cairo, yesterday,
and as it was located at a spot where there
is not even a building, we didn't take the
trouble to trace.
Dr. Rauch is not, as many suppose, the

The Paducab people cry out against
Cairo's wholesale quarantine, and think
that our exclusive side should be turned to
Memphis only. Cairo's quarantine is re

The report that yellow fever had made

The excursion to Vincennes, next Sun

miles, costs only $2.
In answer to a cal upon the Delta
City band, published in Thf. Bulletin
some time ago, n member of the band in
formed us yesterday, that the band would
give a number of open air concerts as soon
us the stands arc provided witli proper
lights and other facilities for the bund's ac
commortation.
Paul W. Allen, M. E. Powers, James
Kinncarand Daniel McCartlicy, constitute
the entire extra force put on duty because
of the establishment of quarantine. The
Inadequacy of the force is s. palpable that
citizens who measure tho apparent necessi
ties of the situation from tho rigid quaran
tine standpoint have few comments outside
of curses.
-There was less talk about the fever
yesterday than during any like interval of
time since the appearance of the first case
in Memphis. The fact that the epidemic
ms confined itself wholly to Memphis, not
withstanding the crowds of refugees that
have poured into other Southern cities, en
courages the belief that Memphis will bo
the only great sufferer during the year.
For a mouth or more, now, a close
watch has been kept upon tho county Jail
not an expensive line of armed guards;
but a watchman who, always awake, can
give the alarm m tho event of any unusual
proceeding on the part of the prisoners.
With a jail, notoriously insecure, the few
oscapesof tho past several years, tells of
constant ngilanco on the part of tho Jailer.
Dr. Rauch's dispatches from Memphis,
yesterday, were to tho effect that nineteen
new cases and seven deaths has been re
ported up to midday. Although this is a
slight falling oil from the day previous, it
hardly denotes an improvement. Hun
dreds of citizens arc still leaving by every
train and by all sorts of conveyances, so
that at this timo thu city is well nigh do
populated. Piinotoeu new cases now arc
equivalent to one hundred and fifty to a
full city. An ugly turn has been given to
matters by tho order to issue government
rations to the poor. Hundreds of nogroa
into the citv that
are said to uc iw.i. -they
may be sharers ot the government,
munificence. I this stream of im
migration is stopped it will bo useless to
attempt to starve out tho disease-i. c. to
remove all tho material upon which it
feeds.
- A correspondent of tho Argus assumes
that for our quarantine officer to board all
boats and trains in search of yellow fever
victims, is all right; but that to come from
those boats and trains and, without fumi
gation or change of raiment to mingle with
our people all over town, is all wrong.
There are not as many as two men in Cairo
who will disagree with that cotrospond
cnt. The Paducah News ridicules the pre-vailing'-fright"
in Cairo, and is of the opin
ion that even a case of fever and ague in
our midst would empty towu of everybody
who could raise money enough to pay his
way out. To quote the language ot Horace
Oreely, which is more applicable to the
case iu hand than it is generally poetical,
we say to the News, "you lie, you villain,
you lie." "Pernicious bilious" might start
us: but ague, never.
The entertainment by the K. M. K. C.
to-morrow evening comes very opportunely,
we think, as it will serve to divert the at
tention ot our people from the gloomy fore
bodings of the rast tea days. There will
bo much to see, much to amuso and enter-
. . ....
tain. The fire-works win oe nnc; goou
music will be on the ground, and all need
ful arrangements made for those who may
choose to join in the dance. Not the least
interesting feature will be tho great walk
ing match. It will do everybody good o
to go and participate.
While Charley Glass, the murderer of
Carter Newman, was on the witness stand
testifying in his own behalf, be evidently
suffered great mental torture, especially
when detailing how he dealt the blows tint
crushed Carter Newman's skull. At the
time he became deeply agitated, and dam
ped his hands together continually, the
noise probably diverting his mind 6cr.it
what from the bloody subject about which
he was testifying. His whole appearance
was that of a man who saw, in all its horrid
actuality, the bloody ghost cf his victim,
and the damning perfidy of his murderous
deed. The ghost of Newman would not
down, neither would the damned
spot of his life's blood,
"out" for Glass' bidding. There was
something ia the man's apparent horror cf
himself and cf the crime lie had committed
to excite pity; but not that pity that would
step in to shield hira from the penalty his
heicious crime has invited.
As the public is anxious to be informed
of the doings ot our Board of Health, and
as the boards themselves should feel an
equal anxiety to have their proceedings
made public, why may we not ask the local
board to imitate the State board, and place
the MSS. of tho minutes
ia our hands, immediately after the meet
ings? The public unquestionably lias a
claim in that regard that should not be ig
nored, and as the information can be made
public without cost to the board, it seems
to us that we should not be compelled to
run all over town to chase down the orig
inal papers in order to let tho public know
what the board ha3 done looking to the pro
tection of the city from the approach ot the
much-feared epidemic. May wo not jisk
our homo board, therefore, to' direct its
clerk to put the MSS. of its minutes in our
hands, not next day, but immediately ufen
the adjournment of the hoard i This course
will give the public information from first
hands the source l'rofu which it ought to
come.
The graud sachems of Republicanism
in Southern Illinois have demanded of the
Governor, as a party necessity, tho heads of
all Democrats connected with our public
institutions, nnd subject to decapitation,
by the Governor or through his influence.
The removal of Doctor Pollock from the
position of surgeon to tho Southern Illinois
Penitentiary, several days ago, was but "the
entering wedge." As between Dr. Elkins,
the newly appointed surgeon, and Dr. Pol
lock.there can be no comparision that is not
greatly to the disadvantage of Elkins. We
are told that Pollock is infinitely thu supe
rior man, and that Elkins is not at all fitted
for the position. We know nothing person
ally of the qualifications of cither gentle
man; but from those who doJcuow them
wo hear nothing but expressions of dissut-
faction and disgust that the efficiency of
that branch of our public scrvico should bo
so palpably subordinated to what a few
Republican fanatics hold to bo the party
needs. To excludo Democrats from any
participation in tho management
of our public institutions betrays a bitter
ness of partisanship that no good man can
commend ; but to retire able mid competent
Democrats, that weak and incompetent Re
publicans may have positions, shows a dis
regard for tho intelligent ami successful
management of our public institutions that
deserves general and hearty condemnation.
Tho testimony for tho defense, includ
ing go much of the defendant's evidenco as
is corroborated, puts quite a different faco
upon tho crlmo of which Glass is confessedly
guity. There can bo no doubt that tho
wretched man was in constant dread of
Newman. Tho beatings ho hnd recclvod.
and threats of violence, tho domineering
disposition and air of insolence malntaluod
by deceased, coupled with the physical ahll
ty to carry tho threats Into execution, all
conspired to keep Glass In a constnnt state
of fear, and of serious npprelii'nslon of lod-
llyharm. Newmau had been ordnn.,1
leave the house; but, if Glass is to be
believed, ho not only refused to co. mt
fiautly told Glass that he intended to con
vert tho place into a brothel and drive uim
off. Glass felt himself powerless, and call
ing tho beatings ho had received to mind,
he had causo for continued exasperation, as
well as for fear of violence., Ot course, It
never occurcd to him that tiio law was equal
to the righting of his wrongs. He toek the
only course that seemed open to him to rid
himself of the constant menace and standing
insult and terror he fouud in tho person of
Carter Newman. He struck a blow that
had all the energy that hate, fear and a de
sire for revenge could give; and knowing
that the blow iiad treed him from the grip
of terror, we can well imagine how a man
of his instincts and grade of intelligence,
could express gratification that the blow
had been given.

THE GLASS MURDER CASE.
TnE EVIDENCE OS ROTH SIDES A HETTER
SHOWING FOR THE ACCUSED, WHO RECITES
A STORY OF LONO SUFFERING AND PATIENT
FORBEARANCEVERDICT OF THF. JCRY
DEATH.
The attorneys having laid down their
premises, as indicated in yesterday's Bulle
tin, they proceeded, each in his own way,
to verify them by the testimony of tho.scv
oral witnesses.
Quito a number of witnesses were exam
ined for tho people, and their evidence was
carefully taken down with a view to its
publication in The Bulletin; but as it is
very voluminous, and is only confirmatory
of the opening statement of the States' At
torney, as published by us yesterday, it
would be but the repetition in tedious de
tail of a thrice-told story, should wo give it
place. We shall .content ourselves, there
fore, by presenting a brief resume of Ruth
Brown's evidence, which is, except in a few
immaterial particulars, equivalent to an ag
gregation of all tho testimony presented
for the people.
Ruth Brown being sworn, testified that
last ppring she lived in the Auger-Hole, the
building in which tlie murder was commit
ted. She worked for Charley Glass, and
was not acquainted with Newman until
Glass brought him there. Newman came
one Saturday evening but went away on the
river, returning the next week. Tho second
time he came he was there a whole week.
The witness then described the house as the
States' Attorney described it. On Tuesday
night after Newman returned Glass and
witness had trouble, Newman came out of
his room about day-break and asked Glass
to quit beating me, asking him if he in
tended to murder me. When the door was
opened witness ran out, and Newman and
Glass were left alone. From that time
forth witness refused to have anything to
do with Glass and Mrs. McKcrncv cooked
for them. Ou the following Sunday wit
ness was in the room of Mrs. McKerncy.
Mrs. McK., Ellen McK., and Newman were
also there. Glass came ia and bid Mrs
McK. good morning. Newman desired to
know why Glass didn't speak to him what
he had against him. Glass replied "noth
ing." There was no further conversation
between them. The witness then detailed
the preparations to go to the picture gallery
She left Newman in the room. When re
turair.cr from the gallery, an hour and a
half later, met Glass in the street. He
took Ellea McK. and witness by the hand
and bidding them good-lye., kept on up the
street. Both women returned to "Auger
Hole," Ellen went upstairs to make a fire,
and then rushed down screaming that some
body had killed Newman.
Ellen McKorney's testimony, that follow
ed, corroborated that above given, with the
additional statement that when she entered
her room to make a fire, she went to the
bed to wr.ken Ne wman, she saw blood, and
then ran down stairs and gave the alarm.
This witness also spoke of quarrels between
Glass and Newman, but said they were oc
casinncd by Glass' cruelty to Ruth Brown.
Saw Newman strike Glass.
Mrs. McFadden occupied a room ad
joining that in which Newman was mur
dered. She was sitting in the room nursing
a sick baby when Glass came in. He picked
up her axe and went out. Heard the door to
the room in which Newman was lying open
and close, and then heard several blows;
but th' uglit Glass was splitting kind'.icg.
Heard co words pas no quarreling
Glass was in the room hardly three minutes
He came out, closed the door behind him.
Heard no groans, although can plainly hear
ordinary conversations carried oa in that
room.
The foregoing, with testimony to the ef
fect that Glass sai 1 before the killing that
he intended "to have life cr take life that
day," and declared after the killing that he
"hail killed the s n of a b h, and that
now if he could kill one more man he'd die
happy," formed the important facts upon
which the people rested their case.
EVIDENCE FOR THE DEFENSE.
The several witnesses for the defense
told the same old story over again, with
slight variations in favor of the accused.
Ed. Rush testified that he was present
when Glass was ia the act of removing Ruth
Brown's things from his room, when New
man interfered and told him not to toucl
the things or he'd hurt him. Ruth and
Newman retired to small room and fastened
the door. Glass tried to get over the tran
som. Newman . and Glass then had
scuffle. The fuss was renewed that evening
when Newman got Glass down and struck
him. Shortly afterwards Glass told New
man he would pay him if he'd leave tho
house. Ruth and Newman then retired
and concealed themselves under tho side
walk.
Callic Johnson heard Glass and Newman
quarreling iu front of the house. Newman
came into Glass' house nnd told Ruthy to
get las supper ready, Glass said she should
not get supper for him. Newman replied :
"What have you got to do with it, you s n
of ab h. I'll murder you in your own
blood!" Heard quarreling up-stairs day
and night but didn't kuow who wero tho
parties to it. Carter Newman's threats wero
made Friday evenlrQ-
On the Wednesday beforo tho murder
Louisa Steel heard Newman say to Glass,
who was drunk, "I intend to give you a
good slugging, you d d old 8 of ab I
You cursed mo." Charley Glass replied :
"If I cursed you I beg to bo excused."
This witness further stated that sho was m
Glass' house on Wednesday, but heard no
continued on third t-aoe.J
