were clever enough to evadc the clutches
Of the myrmidlns of the law, have all
been nodded according to the Chesterian
method. And when it is stated that in
twenty years Chester has been able to
amass a fortune Of so, 900, the great i'm.

he was arrested and condemned to six

again. He has since disposed of the good.

pupils, and retired to Birmingham, where
he has a great deal of property. Having
some very urgent affairs to settle at Paris,
he applied few days ago for permission
to pass a week in this capital, which has
been duly accorded him. But, as it was
deemed unadvisable to allow man of his
capacity to roam about the city without let
or hindrmce, two police agents have been
told off to act rs an escort of surveillance.

DeKalb, Miss, Sept. l6.-Argument in the
case against Virgie aud Houston Gully, for
the killing of Gilmer, began at o'clock this
morning. Argument for the state was
opened by Hon. H. Ware. of Jackson, Mis-
sissippi, who made as fair and foroible re.
presentation of the prosecution as was pos
siblo to be done. He said the proof against
Houston Gully was not as overwhelming as
that against Virgil, and in presenting the
case against the latter he agreed that
defense ought not to be believed. s.
NJ Meebs and Thomas II. Woods argued
the case in behalf of the defense with power
and eloquence. District Attorney Thomas
S. Ford closed the case for tho state by
a resume of the latter's arguments. The
trial has progressed quietly. The jury,
after being out few minutes, returned
verdict of not guilty.
