The Excitement over Dukes Killing Subsld
lng-Features OF tho Event.
UNIONTowN,P Pa. June 1.-the shooting
of N. L. Dukes last evening, the slayer OF
Capt. A. G. Mutt. By tho son of the lattor,
was the all absorbing topic to-day. The
excitement has comparatively subsided,
however, and every one apparently is
breathing sigh of relief now that the
last chapter has been added to the sad
tragedy. There is I large influx of tho
rural population eagerly inquiring into
every particular of the horrible affair."
The Question OF tho Hour.
Among the masses the question is
What will DO tOue with young Mutt ."
People are afraid to trust tho tribunal
which acquitted the murderer of Capt.
Mutt, and would have the avenger tried
by a popular vot, These questions are
little premature, but the past, present and
future are ali discussed in ono and the
same moment. The coroner's jury re
sumed the investigation this morning,
cnly enc witness testifying last night.
Who Saw tho Shooting.
Officers Frank Pegg, Geo. B. Hutchinson,
Alfred Collins. E. A. Lingo, Postoffice
Clerk George Minor and Others,
described the shooting and tho in-
cidents thereof, but their statements
did not vary materially from the descrip
tiOn of the shooting telegraphed from
here last night. Officer Pegg described
how he arrested young Mutt after the
act had been committed. The latter
came willingly with him as soon rs he saw
that his captOr was an officer.
The jury rendered verdict that Dukes
came to his death by wounds from pistol
in tho hands of James Mutt.

An Ola Tobacco Planter.

AIR George Young, residing near East
Pa" pect. commenced growing tobacco in
1888, and has raised crop every year
since then. He began with the common
tobacco somewhat resembling the old
Kentucky leaf, until Havana seed was
introduced in 1887, in Winsor township, by
the late Mr. Benjamin Thomas, when he
commenced its culture. His crops have
always been good and profitable but, he
says, he will stop raising tobacco after
this. his iftieth year of its successful cnl-
tlre.
