The greater portion o! the time while
Miss Newgent was on the stand she was
crying bitterly, and answered the ques-
tons propounde1 with her face covered
with handkerchief. She is rather
above the ordinary heighth of women,
with handsome face, bright black eyes,
fair complexion and light hair, and withal
quite good looking. Her conduct while
on the stand was modest, and she
seemed to feel deeply the position In
which she was placed. She wore CON-
mon blue waterproof, and hat covered
with brown veil.
Mile Grain, an old colored woman,
testified that she had been ont attending
q sick woman, and II was about o'clock
in the morning when she went home.
Just after passing Carter's office she
heard a sound like that OF the discharge
OF a pistol, which came from the direc'
lion OF the depot. She paid no attention
to It at the time, and went home.
A number OF other witnesses were ex-
amined, but nothing further of impor.
lance was elected, The inquest was
then adjourned until Monday morning,
at 10 o'clock, when several witnesses
will be examined.
PUBLIC SENTIMENT.
Public sentiment has under gone no
change as to the manner OF Mr.. Carter's
death, and there is not three men In the
place who believe that it was a suicide.
All the circumstances--th position OF
the body, the wound In the head, and
q dozen other Incidents 60 to show that
twas a case Of murder. But who did
1t and the motive, ore mysteries which
It seems impossible to fathOm.

day whether the funeral would take
place on Monday or Tuesday, owing to
the fact that 1t Is not known when the
relatives OF tho deceased will arrive.
The Odd Fellows Of Mound City and
