The case of the State VS.. John Ablcs,
which has been tried in the circuit court
during the past week has attracted con
siderable attention and comment A
man by name of John l.. Lane was
found dead in a lonely ravine in McDon-
aid county, in June last. He had been
for short time previous tramping about
the country with John Ables, who lived
in Arkansas. and who was avowcdly in
search of his wife, who, he said, had
cloped with another man. They had
agreed TO separate, and Ablcs was about
to return to his home. Lane had horse,
but Ables had no horse Of his own. The
day the murder was supposed to have
been committed Ablcs was seen to cross
the creek and 90 towards his home, rid
ing Lanes horse. The next day the body
of Lane was found in the ravne in the
woods, with two bullet holes in the head
and neck from which he had evidently
died The neighbors at once pursued
Ablcs and found him in the Indian Ma
ton about three days aftcrward lie
was brought back and lodged in Jail at
Pineville, the county seat of Mcdonald
county. He afterwards took a change OF
venue to this county, hence the trial The
charge in the indictment was murder IN
the first degree The case was lengthy
and tedious. The defence was conducted
bv Hardin and Robinson. Both sides
we're ably conducted, The jury, after
consulting about five hours, brought IN
verdict of guilty. The statutory punish
ment for this offence is death. Ables
has not get received his sentence, but
will. no doubt, before the adjournment
