The autedeluvian horse case Of Wolfgang
Eich Us. Oscar Taylor came up for its hun
dredth (almost) trial yesterday.
John Beaver, charged with the murder
Of his wife, was brought into court this
morning to answer to tho indictment
| which had been found by the Grand jury.
A demurrer was fled by Col. Kerr, who
had been appointed by the court to defend
the prisoner, objection being made to the
| indictment. The case was argued by Col
Kerr, and by II. L. Gordon for the State.
The demurrer was overruled by tho court,
and the defendant allowed until tomorrow
morning to plead to the indictment. He
will undoubtedly plead guilty, when under
our statutes the severest sentence possible
| is Imprisonment for life.
In the case of the State vs. Saml. Pres
| ton, charged with selling mule not his
own property, the grand jury failed to find
an indictment, and the prisoner was dis
charged.
The "horse' case is still on trial, and
will occupy the remainder Of to-day at
least.
SEEING IS BEL1Ev1Na.-Thst is what
people think who have heard about Jos.
Gdelbrock's splendid stock of goods and
then 60 and see for themselves. Mr.. Edel-
brock has been in business since the town
had beginning and understands thor
eughly the wants Of the country. He
buys to the best advantage, and sells low.
While dealing largely in staple goods, yet
his assortment Of stylish dress goods can
not be excelled. He has . large lot Of
boots and shoes, which will be sold at .
sacrifice in order to close out. Do not
fail to visit his store.
