A HORRIBLE MURDER.
A Man Shot Down i'm Cold
Blood and Instantly Killed.
The Murderer Arrested and
Committed to Jail.

Saturday evening last, Mr. Fl. S.
Gardner, living near Medina, was
murdered near the residence of Mr.
John Pratt, four miles south of Milan,
as he was returning from this place to
his home. He had been in town the
greater part of the day, left about five
o'clock, and was killed between SUM-
down and dark. Suspicion at once
attached to j. j. Cash, citizen of
Madison county, as the guilty party,
and he was arrested about daylight
Sunday morning at his house, near
Haley's Mill. He had been in town
since Friday evening, and made threats
against the life of Gardner, saying
at one time that he (Gardner) had
been mad at him and he intended
" fixing him" that evening, and at
another time that he had settlement
to make, and that his gun would make
it that night He and Gardner were
seen to leave town together and col
ored man rode few yards behind
them until within half mile of the
place Gardner was killed at; and an
other colored man saw them pass his
house a few minutes before the killing;
and just after the shooting Cash was
seen to pass by John Pratt's and DIR
Davidson's, followed by the mule
Gardner rode. Charles Corder saw
the mule kick the colt of Cash's mare
and the mark is plainly visible on it.
He confessed the killing by saying
that 81 had better have killed him in
Milan" The trial was set for Mon
day at Esq. Fosters. The court was
composed of Esqs. Foster, Jordan and
Meals. The prisoner waived an ex>
animation and was sent to Jail. Cash
is a worthless fellow and is supposed
to have committed the deed to obtain
the few dollars he knew Gardner had.
Gardner was worthy and peaceable
citizen, and leaves a young wife and
two children, while Cash, who is about
30 years of age has wife and family
of children, several of whom are near
ly grown.

a FALSE PROPHET.

At the time that the Democratic
House of Representatives, was passing
resolution declaring Hayes elected,
and that no subst qnent Congress could
amend its decision on that point, the
chief editor of the Territorial Enter
prise was brushing the dust off the CORY
emblem which 1t is said he keeps In his
Office to arouse bis partisan prejudices
q. d inspire him with hate tor major
lty of the people of the United States,
who differ from him politically, pre-
phratory to writing leader on the
Potter investigation. Gazing on the
r'g crimsoned with gore from the near
st slaughter yard. until his great
moral ideas" were aroused, he grasped
bis pencil and wrote that 'the Demo-
cratic house was preparing for reyolu-
tion;' that the Investigation of election
frauds meant The removal of Hayes
from the Presidency; that Matthews
and Noyes were soldiers, and are hated
. by Democrats on tlat account, and that
Sherman life has been an open book
tohls coQntrymen for years. and en-
phatlcaliJ declared that there Is to be
another var. All these r4vIngs we're
given to toe puolic in the sAne issue
with dispatch from Washington an
nouncing tbs passage by the House of
,Ge,resoiutiou declaring Hayes elected.
