sons gathered in the village, and
lynching was freely talked of. But
better council prevailed, and DR. w.
was placed under arrest, as was also
the two other boys.
At the time the DIR. was driving
everybody off the place, his house
keeper manifested SO much interest
in his welfare that she began to be
suspected of being a party of the
plot. She at first denied all knowl
edge of the murder, but subse quent y
said that she saw the boys killing
their mother, that they did it in ODE
dience to their fathers instructions.
Miss Tor MRS. King cannot speak
English. She took some of the
neigbbors to show them where Mr..
w. slept Saturday 'aipht, and, as
she turned down the bed clothes, re
marked with triumph, "You don't
see any blood here J!
The West Point people generally
believe that both the Doctor and his
house-keeper were privy to the muir
der, and it is more than probable
that one or both of them had
a hand in the crime. 1t is said the
Doctor was seen in West Point on
Friday. The woman was murdered
scientifically. There were no other
marks ofviolence on her person, we
are told, than those above referred
to. The conclusion is that they
were not only made by steady and
practiced hand, but that the victim
was.first rendered unconscious by ;he
use of chloroform or snm" other drug.
A full legal investigation will proba-
bly, bring out all the facts. The faith
er and the two boys was taken to the
Jail in TT. Madison. The house
keeper is under arrest at West Point.

EDUCATE THE LEFT HAND.

EDUCATE THE LEFT HAND.-Most
persons are what is called "right-
handed" that is, they use the right
hand for almost every thing, and the
left only as an assistant. Some few
are the reverse of this, while some
can use one as well as the other. A
child can, and should be taught to
use both hands equally. There is
every reason in favor of the plan of
educating and cultivating both sides
of the body alike. Right handed and
left-handed persons are almost GER
tain to be unequally developed. The
side that is used the most is larger
and stronger than the other. Right
handed persons are much stronger
in the right hand and arm than in the
left, and vice versa. This one-sided-
ness is very apt to, and in many cases,
does result in curvature of the spine,
the curve being toward the stronger
side, in one shoulder being higher
and more projecting than the other
etc.
