Of there occurred yesterday at the Probate

A Strange Homicide.

From Keno county comes the news of
most singular homicide, We give the PAR
ticulars Ia brief. Louis Frecant, French.
man by birth, l,v, d in the western portion
OF Reno county. He WIS a single man and
unc 1mmunicative, faring Do,hng ecarcely
to do with hi, neislbor'. However he EN-.
ployed one Coy!e I, dig a cellar fer him and
refu ed 20 pay for it. Covle sued him in the
court l.. =. Shields, and obtained q judp-
mint Tor The work. An execution Issued
and W PLACED in Il hands of Thos. Civ
er S, a const,bie OF Mediorl township. On
Thursday g vens went to Frecant's house to
levy GA his horses and was told BY Frecant
that il he ATTEMPTED any hing of the kind he
would kill him. Owens re, ired and CO ,lect-
ing 20 So Of five men returned to Frecant's.
But the ob-tiaate Frenchmsn vas NOT in the
l-ast Gism.yed. Picking up chopping axe
ne backed up against the stable snd told
them they w'uid have to ki him be-
lore they could get the horses. As he epoke
Eng!i h iinI~,f-cliy Givers sent for another
Frenchman in tie n'ighborhood and had
him to exp ul .te with Frecant. But il vas
dat h- would die before he would permi,
his no '-es 10 go, that they might overpower
i'm but he would kill one flint.
The Sheriff dismissed his pos Sc. and re-
turEinY, swore out a stste warrant, which
wa p.eced in the hands Of John McMurray
Tor syrvice. McMurray drove ont 70 the
Dsiyhtorhood Of Frecan', where he was
warned that defendant would never be taken
alive, and that he hid bought a pistol the
Iisht before; still, supporting that he could
easily execute the warrant, he went on, TAX
ing with him NJ. B. Cochran, a gentleman
who lived tn the neighbrrhood, and vas one
Of the POI Sc two days before. They drove
to defendant's house. Before they go. to the
house Cochran got out of the wagon end
came up behind the hOGso, 40 that the man
could n t see him. But McMurray, bling q
stranger, drove TO within twenty yard, of the
front GOCr, and get irg on, commenced
hitchins his forses, Tie man, cot suspect
ing any thing, cane out, and leaning upon
the wheel, commenced a conversation. After
,yirg his bo ses, McMurrsy parsed between
the man and the house, laid bis hand on his
arm, told Rim he vas prisoner BY virtue of
a state warrant. Tie man sprsne back and
wanted TO know what for, said he would die
frat and attempted to rush BY McMurray to
the house against the 81 ie of which sat the
axe he had brandished on Givers two days
before. A struggle ensued in which the
man rush.d the sheriff backwards toward
the house, although he was belabored over
the head with Cochran's pistol. He then
attempted to get hold Of Nc Murray's pietol,
but "a led TO snaich II from him. When they
had: gotten within four feet of the axe, Nc
hurry fred st his legs, but missed. This
seemed to make F.ecant more desperate than
ever, and bleeding from wounds on head BY
Cochran's pistol, he sprsng towards the
sheriff, c,tchirg at bis pistol, and while do
irg 40 received a rhot through the breast,
which produced II slant death.
