LAST fail woman named Margaret Nixon
was visiting this county, in the neighborhood
of Burr's Mills, having with her child three
months old. In September she took the train
from that point to Bellaire, whence she took
boat for Marietta, from which she started
to walk across the country to Macarthur, Vim
ton county, where she had formerly lived.
When in the neighborhood of Vinton Furnace,
and near distillery where lot of hogs were
being fattened, she threw her child into hog
pen and it was torn to pieces. Shortly after
ward she was placed upon her trial for muir
der, and after the jury was sworn in the case,
the Court for some reason continued the case.
Last week the case came up again for trial,
when she was found guilty, and sentenced to
hard labor. in the penitentiary for life. Clay
poole and DUNCAN, her attorneys, filed mo-
ton for a second trial. Judge Duhadway
overruled the motion. The case will be taken
upon error to the Supreme Court. William
Coffland and daughter, ]. ]. Heskett, Burr's
Mills. and widow Griffith, of Hunter, this
county, were in attendance at tn, trial as
witne :ses.

THE trial of the Louisville rioters began in
Common Pleas Court, on Saturday, and occu
pied its time until Tuesday noon. George,
who is twenty-one or two years of ago, and i;
the eldest of the Yaus boys, had his trial sepa-
rate from the remainder. After hearing a
large amount of testimony the Jury, on Mon
day evening, returned a verdict of guilty tC
the first count in the Indictment, stabbing
with the intent to kill. Beal and Williams
was also found guilty under the same count
Charlie Yaus, boy less than sixteen year:
old, entered a plea of guilty, and the State en-
tered nOAe lroseqm in the case of Louis
who, from the testimony, took but little par
in the disgraceful affray. The conviction o
these young men should prove warning tt
others in this locality who are making pretty
good headway in the same direction.

Important to those Using Old style
Wheeler & Wilson Sewing
Machines

We are now prepared to put all the latest
improvements on old style Wheeler d Wils0n
sewing machines, at but trifling cost. With
these improvements an old machine would
work as well as a new one of the latest style
and we would guarantee il just as long as q
new machine. The principle of the new ms
chine is the same as the old, but changes hav,
been made which increase its efficiency, while
at the same time less care and skill are requir-
ed in its management. Seams are crossed
with ease. The work guided with scarcely an
effort. Nearly double its former power. N
under tension to manage. Every join can be
frightened as fast as it wears.
