THE M'COOK MURDER.
mathematics Defense-A Plea of Insan
fty, of Course.

fty, of Course.
Wintermute's friends say that from
the time General McCook first struck
Wintermute in the saloon until the eve
ming of the next day, Wintermute was
in a demented state, having been so
stunned by the blow that he was not
conscious of what was passing, or re-
sponsible for his actions-in proof of
which they refer to his returning to the
meeting and interrupting it, and using
the unnatural language he did there, as
saying that he had been badly whipped,
etc. 1t is also said that McCook's Ian
guage was insulting and unbearable as
it could be before the encounter; that,
as a gentleman, it was very humiliating
to bear such treatment from one who
was physically SO much larger and
stronger that any one would be justi-
fed in seeking redress after such an en-
counter, even though in possession of
all his faculties, and that McCook' S
attack on him was uncalled for and I'M
provoked.
Instead of waiting for him near the
door, as stated by the press generally,
it is said that Winterrnute took the same
seat he had occupied when he was first
in the meeting, and that he could not
see the General approach the hall at all !;
and there was no shot fired in the hall,
and that he could not see McCook until
he was in the courtroom where the
meeting was being held.
They further claim that McCook came
to the hall the second time armed, and
that, by accident, the first shot was fired
by some one unknown, near the door,
which reused Wintermute, who was sit
ting near the stove, and who suddenly
arose, and, as he did so, drew his revol-
yer and fired, missing NIcCook, and
then advanced and fired the second fatal
shot, laboring under the impression that
General McCook was firing at him.
To substantiate this they bring
responsible persons to say that before
the affray had fairly begun a ball was
heard to pass over the heads Of the
crowd, and that the same lodged in the
end of the room directly opposite the
door. -NOur city Journal.

WE hear it asserted that the movement
of the farmers is responsible for the
prevailing panic in financial circles. Ii
so, it ought to teach the railroad lords

the basis of capital and all great enter

AS proof of the mighty reform Eov
sweeping in "tidal waves" over the
country, we call especial attention to
the fact that "one-term men" are all
the demand. Old party hacks and pro.
fessional place-hunters and ofice-hclders
must go down before the triumphal
march of reform, embodied in one-term
"anti-monopoly," and no office-holdine
or office-secking demagogue "need
apply. Henry (IU.) Republican.

PrOstratiOn Practice.

Luckily for the sick, the idea that 1t is necessary to reduce their bodily strength in order to cure them, is fast dying out. Modern science recognizes the fact that disease is of itself moro than sufi ciently depressing to body and mind, and does not need to be assisted in its inroads upon the vital energy sof the system by violent purgations and other debilitating mixtures. Prostration is, In short played out" and the actitioners who still cling to it; few and far between that they cannot like their predecessors of the same fatal school who aourished half a century ago, Nl the graveyard with their victims. The introduction of Hostettcr's Stomach Bittcrs in 1852 heaviest blow that the old practice of depletion ever re- ceived, and from that time to the present, ns the celebrity of the great vegetable invgorant has increased, the purging, blstering, bleeding water gruel practice has declined. Tho effect of this famous preventive and remedy is to strengthen build up, regulate and tranquilze, not to weaken, break down and violently disturb the system. Itis a tonic, alterative and nervinc, with puro stimu- lant it's propelling and distributing agent This stimulant diffuses the curative and life sustaining elements of the medicine through tho whole organ izati0n, and brings them into contact with the sources of disease.

Variety in Fashion.

A few years ago there could not be two fashions; one style of thing was worn and no other. If founces were the mode, every one who had the least pretention to elegance must wear foun- were only made with sleeves of that shape, and any other pattern would have been tabooed as outlandish and odd. It was the same with trimmings, bonnets, and everything else. It is only lately that fashion has enlarged it's orbit, and allowed many styles and modes to be i'll equal favor at one time. At the present moment we have loose jackets, tight polonnaises, and several different shaped mantles; for trimmings, velvet, ribbon, chenille, jet, gimp, and embroidery; bodices with waist bands, with basques, and with sashes; chG- pea,tr in velvet, silk and felt Why should we not have long falling robes like those of Norma, as well as the short scanty skirts of Queen Charlotte's time, to set off the dainty looped-up petticoats of Dolly Warden? do not see why we should not have as many styles as dress-makers like to invent and women to wear. The picturesque appearance of our drawing-rooms and promenades could only be enhanced thereby. All fear of monotony would be thus eluded; a green dress made in one style is not the same as green dress made in an- other. A woman would also have free scope wherein to choose the mode most likely to suit her face and figure, and thus we should arrive at the end and aim of good dressing, which is, of course, to enhance the charm of the wearer, and at the same time to set off the costume to the best advantage.
