Tho confinement to which they have been
subjected SO long is telling on the jury, and
thought they all looked better for their
two days rest and ventilation. There was
one on whose cheeks shone a hectic flush,
and in whose eyes glittered feverish lus-
tre. He was at once identified as the KEY

plated to remove by a surgeons certificate

TILToN AND EvARTS.
Tilton was in excellent humor this mom-
ing. I've days OF quiet and two nights Of
sleep had restored the waste of previous
weeks. His eve was clear, his face smooth,
and his step brisk and elastic. His physi-
cal condition seems to improve every day,
now that he has been purged of the terrible
and unwholesome secrets which, until re
Gently, have oppressed him. When he took
the chair he sat down a willing, almost
cheerful, but always grave, confessor.
Evarts was also in excellent form, and, by
some ledgerdemain impossible to describe,
BARRIERS razor had dodged in and out of
the countless wrinkles which compose his
face, and left that not expansive territory
clean shaved. The high lights in Evarts'
face are yellow; the shadows green.

Tlton nl-Evarts Angry Bathing With
Mrs. Woodhull-Physical Training.

Inc ShlcaSO Iftoute says. Nhen the
proceedings reached adjournment yesterday
evening, Tilton was i'll; his eyes were dull
and bloolshot, and his general appearance
suggestive OF extreme exhaustion. This
morning he looked very little better. The
malady which affiicts him most is sleepless-
ness Ii he could obtain two or three nights
of perfect repose the wrinkles would per-
whenever he suffers from nervous relaxa-
ton. Yet, though his physical indisposi-
ton was topic Of much debate. his men
tai poi-e and self-control were kept up to an
abnormal degree.
THE MANNER OF THE ACTORS.
Tilton, though manifestly out OF health
was cool, calm, and passionless. Not so
Eyarts. Yesterday the latter, when his
days work was done, took the former by
the hand and expressed his regret that the
witness cross-examination had been ag-
gravated by his evident illness. To-day
Evarts renewed the attack upon Tiiton with
as much violence and acrimony as if he
hated him from the bottom OF his heart, and
yeaned to anihilate him with each ques-
ton. The cooler Tilton grew, the hotter
and more furious grew Evarts, who, at last,
threw his inquiries at the head OF his vic
tim with a shrek, as if they were deadly
proiectiles. 1t was gunboat bombarding
a breastwork of cotton-bales; shot and shell
started with crash, but brought up with
fiat, dull thud. The first passage-at-arms
occurred when Evarts-alwavs on crescendo
began quest On. Were you afraid"
mo, sir" broke in Tilton quickly but
mildly. Evarts was taken aback. He stared
blankly at the witness for a moment, and
then taking breath, began again, "Were you
afraid '.No, sir, not at ALL" shot out
OF Tilton's mouth as concisely, as Interrupt
tinglv as before. This was too much for
Evarts. Gasping with rage he cried what
do You mean hy answering nv questions be-
fore ] begin them ?" The audience laughed,
but Tilton seemed astounded at the law
yer's wrath.

ACTIVE PHYSICAL TRAINING.
u the NaN York Herald I

From the New York Herald.
Among many other things told at lunch
about the chief actors in the trial, was a
story that, before the case bagan, Tilton,
Beecher, and Moulton went into active
physical training, and that the two former
still continue the practice. Beecher gets
up at 3 O'Clock, takes cold bath, and af-
terward exercises with dumb-bells for half
an hour. Then he spends another half
hour pummelling sack filled with sand.
Another half hour is spent with Indian
clubs, after which he takes smart walk to
Prospect Park, and repeats dozen times
the ascent of the hill where the Prospect
Tower stands. He eats porterhouse steak
when he returns home and washes them
down with Dublin porter In this way he
has reached the muscular vigor of a prize
fighter. Tilton has gone further and super
added to all this prize-ring practice in a
private parlor. Moulton tried variety of
ways to harden his physique and tone his
nerves to the steadiness of a rope-walker's.
The result is seen in the freshness that
characterized Moulton after his ten DAVIS
ordeal as witness, and the splendid
health SO palpable in the faces of plaintiff
and defendant

Narrow Escape from Being Buried in
q Well.

Mr.. Frank Wells and Mr.. John w.
Karr, Leroy, Mclean county, ILL.,, were
spending the Fourth at the residence Of
Roly Williams, and while sitting in the
shade talking, with the children playing
around in the yard, splashing was
heard in the we'll. These gentlemen at
once supposed that one of the children
had fallen in and ran to the we'll, Mr..
Wells selling the rope and descending
the apparatus for drawing water being
rope with bucket at either end, sup
ported by a pully. Mr.. Williams and
Mr.. Karr held one end Of the rope to
prevent the hook from pulling out. Mr..
Wells let himself down about waist deep
in the water, and supporting himself by
one hand felt around for the child. Mr..
Karr looked down into the we'll to see
what progress was being made when to
his horror he saw the walls we're closing
in over Mr.. Wells head. He called to
him to climb for life, which he lost no
time in doing. AS soon as he was in
reach, Mr.. Williams and Mr.. Karr assisted
him out and he had no sooner landed than
the walls fell in. The we'll was 30 feet
deep with 20 feet of water. After the ex-
citement was over it was discovered that
none of the children were missing, the
noise being doubtless caused by portion
of the wall giving way below the top of
the water. Mr.. Wells fingers were bad
ly blistered.

The Long Island Railroad Disaster.
New York Tribune, l4th.]

LlNCW 1OAA 14ADuuC3 A7tusl
Few extenuat;ng circumstances, either
for the railroad company or it's officials,
have yet been developed in the Coroncr's
investigation of the Rockaway railway
disaster. 1t appears that Conductor
Hubbard was heard to remark that he had
only one minute and half in which to
get Fl om Woodsburg to Rockaway,
whereas the time allowed by the present
schedule is four minutes and was former
" six minutes. Conductors, says the
train-master, soften take risks in that
way.' We find also that there has been
no telegraph Office at W oodsburg for two
years; the railroad agent was an oper-
ator, but had no instrument. There are
various other indications of criminally
loose management, which make disaster
like that of the 5th of July rather mat
ter of course on such road.

The assassins were evidently about TWEEN
ty yards from the house when the murR
der was committed. The spot was after
ward discovered where the murdcrers5
had secreted thcmselvessrear the house
and where they had tied their horses
This was about sixty yards from the
house, on the edge of a corn fielc5
near a creek. The tracks Of thei,.
horses were discovered, showing they hac
taken the road to Owenton, and branch {
off into the bushes to hide all possible
evidence of their footsteps. Russel'$
friends did all they could for him. He
lived during the night and expired abou,
half past 8 on Friday morning. His
papers, including the confession Of Mef
fert, we're taken in charge by his friends
Not content with determining upon the
death of Russell, the same parties, it is
thought, on Thursday petitioned Judge
McManama to issue writ Of habcas cor.
pus against Ambrose Camp, jailer of JEFF
ferson county, to show cause why he
should detain in his custody the four
prisoners now in Jail here convicted by
the United States Government. This
writ was granted and made returnable
July 6. 1t arrived here about the same
time as the news of Russell assassination.
The Supreme Court Of the United
States has already decided these habeas
corpus cases several times, and as Jailer
Camp has evidently no control over these
prisoners. his only answer to the writ can
be to that effect, and that the United
States Marshal is answerable in the mat.
ter. Such will probably be the decision
of Mr.. Camn. 1t is also probable that the
United States Government will take the
prisoners from this Jail and place them in
some other Jail in this judicial district.
Thus far TO efforts, so far as can be
learned, have been made to arrest the
murderers Of Russell. 1t is charged that
all the officials of Owen county are in
collision with these ruffians.

Sheridan,s Black Hills Orders.
[Chicago Tribune.

It should be generally known and
fully appreciated that General Sher-
idan has issued imperative in-.
structions that all persons endeavs
oring to reach the Black Hills shall be pre-
vented from going, and all now there
shall be expelled. These orders are to
be obeycd until an official declaration of
the result of the conference between the
Governments and the Indians. The order is
fully warranted by the fact that the
title to the i, country is in the
Indians, and that they are entitled
bv their treaty to the protection
Of the government. Aside from
this, the order may save
much suffering. loss of y time and
money, and the decentralization of an ad-
vcntucous and disappointed career, to
many man.

An Arkansas Desperate Killed.
(Arkadelphia Standard.)

Capt. J. c. Ray and Mr.. j. P. Hulsey
left this place one day last week for Pike
county, for the purpose of capturing the
desperate Ambrose Fl. White, charged
with murder, and who escaped custody,
and has since set the authorities at def.
ance. They state he was captured just
before their arrival there, by two brothers
named Cox, and afterward, in attempting
to escape, was shot and killed by one OF
the Coxes. The circumstances of the
capture and killing were substantially as
follows: 1t appears that White had been
on terms of criminal intimacy for some
time past with girl that one of the Cox
boys wished to marry, but the girl prefer
ring White, was preparing to leave
the country with him. This excited the
anger of Cox, and he, with his brother,
agreed upon Whites capture. Being on
intimate terms with him, they rode up to
the house of the girl where White was,
and he, being unsuspicious Of danger,
greeted them kindly. He was sitting on
chair, with his gun across his lap, and,
while one Of the Coxes engaged him in
conversation, the, other got behind him,
and at favorable moment seized him
from behind and pinion ed his arms, while
the other presented revolversataas, his
breast and disarmed him. White then
tried to beg off, promising toSSsleave the
country and not harm them. They re-
fused to release him, when White asked
the privilege Of getting drink of water
When on the way to the we'll,
he broke to run, and was shot by
one of the Coxes through the body, and
ran some distance before he fell. Cox
then ran up to him, when White begged
him not to shoot him, as he was already
a dead man. Cox REPLIED. 10, d--n you,
you might get up, so look out for your
head-here goes,'' and fired, shooting
him through the temple, killing him in
stantly. The other Cox had his hands
full in managing the girl. who showed
pluck and a disposition to defend White
with her life. Pike county is thus rid of
very desperate and dangerous man,
and though his taking off was to satisfy
personal revenge rather than violated law,
the people Of that county have reason to
be glad of it. If Pike can now get rid OF
the Coxes it would he all the better for
it. A coroner 'stinquest was held on the
body; and the jury returned verdict in
accordance with the above facts.

A Solnnanl bulist,s Capers.

On the night of the 18th strange case
of somnambulism occurred at Spring
Lake, Mich, the principal actor beirg a
lad named Robbie, son of David Patter-
son, prominent lumberman. At about
l A. NJ, ncjghbor hearing noise, and
fearing burglars, arose, and looking out
Of the window saw what he supposed to
be man climbing the lightning rod of
Pattcrson's residence. He Immediately
gave the alarm, when it was noticed that
the object made no attempt to escape,
and acted strangely. Curiosity icing
aroused, his movements were very closely
watched. The boy climbed to the high
est point Of the Gothic tower, and, al
though the surface was very uneven, ex.
plored the whole top of the building
without misstep. After remaining upon
the roof for nearly an hour, he returned
to the rod, climbed down to the second
story, and getting into the window of his
own room, went to bed, where he was
found sound asleep soon after. Upon be-
ing awak cned, he remembered nothing of
his strange trip, and was very much
frightened when told where he had been.
Next day he was much exhausted and
quite sick.

Enthusiastic Reception Of Cornell, IS
Victorious Oarsmen at Ithaca.

Oa41 SAAACAs a. 1Ins&Cf1e
The reception Of Cornell's victorious
university and freshmen crews, upon their
arrival at Ithaca, Friday evening was
most enthusiastic. Upon the arrival of
the train the crews were taken from the
cars upon the shoulders of their friends
and taken to hook and ladder truck.
upon which a platform had been placed
with chairs for the crews and winners of
prizes in the foot races. They were then
welcomed home in brief speech, when a
procession was formed, headed by the
5lst regiment. the Syracuse friends of
the crews drawing the truck. The line
of march was through the principal
streets, which we're densely thronged, and
brilliantly illuminated and festooned in
the colors of the victorious boatmen, W lille
the church and fire bells and university
chimes were rung, together with an nm.
ceasing display of pyrotechnics, the fes-
tivities being kept up until after mid:
night. The demonstration surpassed
anything ever before had in that vicin-
ity.
