Will Wood has been arrested and tinned over to the oilicers, and left on the noon train for ('in Mimati. L vi 1:1:: - As near as can be ascer tained the facts in the case are these: Young Jackson had been intimate with Miss llryan for some time, and it was discovered that the girl was in a serious condition. She left home, it is thought, to meet Jackson, when an operation would be performed. She was never seen alive afterward by her friends. It is thought she met Jackson and died probably while undergoing an opera tion. The young fiend is supposed to have severed her head to prevent iden tification. What implicates young Wood is: A letter was written to him by Jackson designating what kind of medicine should be purchased to give to the girl.

They did not seem to think, however, that his condi tion would warrant proceedings for commitment to an asylum. It is un derstood that Canaan went to P.ourbon with Messrs.

Wednesday at i:I." coroner proceed ed to hear two inoie witnesses in regard to t lie Swoverland shooting. Those j who were betöre Coroner Kaszer ! were Melvm Soencer and Mel- viri Ueed. The evidence secured from those two witnesses did not materialy differ from that secured from those who had heard the remarks of John Swoverland on the streets of Jlourbon two weeks ago last Saturday. These two gentlemen were in the Jgroup on that day when the threat to kill Stewart was made. At the conclusion of the evidence given, Coroner Kaszer rendered the fol lowing verdict: "That the deceased, John Swoverland. came to his death by being shot by Samuel Stewart.who eom mited the act in self defence, and was exenorated by the coroner." Immediately after the rendering of the verdict an allidavid was filed by Mart Swoverland against Samuel Stew art, charging him with murder. The warrant was placed in the hands of Constable Klinger who served it. on Stewart. Stewart was brought before Squire I Jeeves Wednesday at Ü o'clock, an. as he was arrested on the charge of j murder, ami not bailable, it will neces sitate his laying in jail until the next term of court which is set for March. Samuel Mewart seems to feel confi dent that he will be cleared of the. charge, of murder, and is perfectly will ing to wait patiently the result of the trial. His arm which was cut is im- j proving slowly and though at first he was unable to move his lingers, they are becoming so that he can move them without much trouble. Kl Mul;s hmm Till-: i: l l l.r. i.;iM) There are alwajs rumors as thick as hairs on a dog's back that originate from such a scene as occurred at the Flsesser's sale last week. A report comes to us, the truth of which we are not willing to assume, but give it space as it is worthy of perusal. It is said that Joe Anderson, of this city, who is now in the oil business for a tlrm at Cleveland, was there. When Die shooting commenced there was a lively scattering. Among those who were in close proximity to swoverland and Stewart, were Joe Anderson and James Sheet, a constable from Kreinen. Mrs. FJsesser hearing an unusual com motion in the house went to see what it was, and discovered Joe Amleison and Constable sjK.ttz. hid in the bed room. She asked them what they were doing there, and Sheet, replied that he was an "odieer of the law." It is said that Anderson was speechless and kept jerk mg his head from one side to the other as though he was trying to dodge bul lets. Mrs. Flsessec again ordered them out. of the house and as she went int.) another room an unusual noise attract ed her attention and an investigation found three more brave men under a bed. It is said it took considerable work to get them alPout of the house. 1 but she finally succeeded, but not until after the shooting was over. Knifed il -Ie-n." .Joseph M.
