awaited the arrival of Mace and Coburn and

William EOafpr hn iu lo ;aI E,..l
for the murder of Mr.. Putnam, appears scarcely
to realize his peril, although he occasionally be-
trays considerable nervousness. He eats and
sleeps well, and although there is no bravadO in
his manner, he still has an air of confidence.
and apparently is not apprehensive of under
going the death penalty. He does not wish to
see visitors, and positively refuses to converse
with any one upon the subject OF the murder,
as he has been advised, he says, by his counsel,
not to do so. He carefully conceals himself
from the view of persons passing through the
corridor by squeezing himself into the corner of
his cell near the entrance, thus battling the curl
osity OF those who are anxious to obtain view
of the perpetrator of so fearful an outrage. The
wife of the prisoner visits him daily and remains
with him several hours. His children, however
have not been to see him.
The number OF deaths in this city last week
