ORIGIN OF THE TROUBLE.

March "a. William Berner, on trial for the
murder OF William II. Kirk, was found guilty
of manslaughter. The verdict WAS declared
privately bg the Judge who tried the case to be
an outrage, and the jury. after leaving the
courtroom were hooted at by the crowd, with
suggestions that they should be hanged. Kirk
was killed il bis stable by blow of hammer,
robbed Of about 800 in money, put into
WAGON. hauled off toward Cumminsvile. and
dumped into Mill Greek, where the body was
found two davs later. Joe Palmer and Will
lam Berner confessed that they did the nur-
der and robbery. On uial Berner testified that
Palmer did the actual murder, while he only
looked on and got share of the mOneg. The
verdict was universally condemned.
The result OF the trial was the
subject of talk all over the city wherever
men net. OF the thirty murderers con-
fined in the Jail the case against Berner was
the strongest. TIE responsibility for the prac-
teal acquittal of Berner was placed upon the
jury. Some Of the jurors are SAID 10 have
been chosen by defendants counsel and
light verdict thus assured from the first.
When the jury left the courtroom they were
followed by a Jeering mob, and there were
cries of Hang thelnl' Two of the jurors were
so badly frightened that they escaped from the
courthouse through an unfrequented passage.

threatened to hang him. The crowd was dis
persed by the police. Soon afterward Bohne
received word that couple Of friends wanted
to see him at neighboriDg saloon. Emerging
from his house, a crowd who had been in con-
cealment jumped upon him. tore his clothes,
and beat him in a serious manner. Bohne was
taken to the jail for safety. Charles DolahaD,
another member of the jury, who lives in Har-
rison, did not dare to return home. He got as
far as Cleves, where crowd pelted bim with
rotten eggs. He spent the night IN ccrnheld,
and the next day went to Brookville, Ind. There
he was recogni ed aud told that he had better

turned to the printing room Of Russell Nor

the services of such men were not wanted

lived there. They tore off the blinds and
threw dead cats and rotten eggs through the
windows before the mistake was discovered.

TO the neck with pure milk add two table
spoonfuls of white sugar, after dissolving
the same in little water over n hot fire
add also q quarter of q two cent cake of
compressed yeast. Then tic the cork on the
bottle securely, and shake the mixture we'll
place il in a room of the temperature of 9O'
to $50 Fahrenheit for six hours, and finally
in the ice box over night. Drink in such
quantities as the stomach may require.
II will be well TO observe several import
ant injunctions in preparing the koumiss,
and they are To be sure that the milk is
pure that the bottle is sound that the
yeast is fresh TO open the mixture in the
morning with great care, on account of its
eferyescent properties; not to drink it at
all if there is any curdle or thickening part
resembling cheese, as this indicates that
the fermentation has boen prolonged be-
yond the proper time Make it as you need
to use it. The virtue Of koumiss is that it
refreshes and stimulates, with no after re-
action from its effects. II is often almost
impossible to obtain good fresh koumiss,

GETTING DRUNK ON COLOGNE.
Women who Triple ON various Supple
from the Drug Stores.

Did you ever hear of anybody getting
drunk on eau de co'ogne ?" inquired Sun
reporter of a popular druggist
Certainly" was the druggists answer,
and it is by no means an uncommon
occurrence. ] once had customer, lady,
who was puzzled to know what became of
her cologne. She suspected that the SER
wants used it, and carefully watched them,
but could never detect the smell of it about
their clothing AT the same time the house
maid was noticed to be occasionally under
the influence of stimulants, and it was a
source of wonder as to where she procured
her supply. The two puzzles were solved
together when it was discovered that the
girl was in the habit of drinking the cologne
The girls appetite was SO strong for the
alcohol, and her opportunities for procuring
1T so infrequent, that she could not resist
even in the form of cologne.
There is no doubt that the main patron
age of various patent medicines, tonics,
bitters, and the like, containing large
quantities of alcohol, comes from women
who seize upon this opportunity to crafty
an appetite for drink which they could not
crafty in any other way. One of my GUS
toners told me that she could not keep q
bottle of laudauum, or paragoric, or ever
OF bay rum in the house. Any sedative oil
stimulant medicine was sure to disappear
and the servants were the culprits.
" 1t is well known that in manufacturing
establishments where alcohol is used for
mechanical purposes it is difficult to keep
the topers from drinking it, There are
many women who drink all sorts of stuff
that they get from the drug stores, for the
alcohol it contains, and who would be
ashamed to be seen buying liquor
know sad case of young girl who
was cologne drinker. She was observed
to DO stupefed and incoherent, and it was
long before her secret was discovered. At
last the family doctor said that she was suf-
fering from alcoholism. The declaration
OF the doctor was received with Indignation.
But the girl was watched, and ut last de-
tected in swallowing her cologne. The
alcohol habit had by that time taken such
hold of her that she could not resist, and
it was only with the greatest difficulty that
she was reclaimed. Every druggist knows
that there are constantly put in the way of
those who are weak stimulating poisons from
the drug store that are as pernicious as the
vilest drains. A conscientious man cannot
see these things 60 on before his eyes with
out regret, and yet he dares not act upon
his convictions lest he should lose his Gus
tom. Bay rum and cologne are innocent
enough in their legitimate use but other
wise they are harmful, and should be kept
out of the way of those who are known tc
have an appetite for stimulants."

A DISASTROUS RIDE.

A well-known farmer who lives in one of
the back" counties, came to the city
several days ago with drove of cattle en-
route for Memphis. When the cattle had
been loaded on train, the old gentlemen
said to the conductor
Amt it customary for man that ships
carload of cattle to get free ride ?"
Yes.n
Wall, want to go over with these cat
tie"
Climb up into the caboosen
No, I'd rather ride in the car with the
cattle. When we stop at station somebody
might steal some of the steers"
" No danger of that, but you may ride
any place you choose"
The old fellow climbed into the cattle-car,
and seating himself at one end, lighted his
pipe and proceeded to enjoy himself. The
train did not start until after dark. Rain
began TO full and the wind roared among
the cypress trees. The conductor thought
that he heard wall louder than the cry of
the storm, but deciding that il was only a
fancy or the shrek of night bird, he ar
rested not tho wild course of the train
When the train stopped at station, the
conductor heard some one say "amen."
Going to the cattle-car, he held up his Ian
tern and asked
"All right in there"
Tho man was climbing around on the
backs of the steers.
"All right, tlIunderation I'm dead.
These things have tramped me nearly to
death. Let me out of here and I'll ride Oh
top"
The train proceeded. A brakeman, coming
along, said
what are you doing up here ?"
I've got a right to be here. I've got
charge of them cattle"
"Thats too attenuated, cap'n. The cat
tie mans inside. Can't steal n ride over

A STORY AND ITS LESSON.

A little incident told by traveller of two
boys selling fans reveals the underlying
differences between successful and
unsuccessful man. The train was in

atmosphere was sitting and tho passengers
were painting in their seats. A slow, surly
boy passed through the train drawling on
" F-a-n-s, five cents" in dreamy, discon-
Solate tone, which made people feel more
tired and languid than ever. He went
through the whole length of the train, but
sold only two fans. He was followed by a
CHEEKY busness-like, prompt, colored boy,
with brisk and lively air and q pleasant
voice, which attracted the passengers al
once. They stirred in their seats and were
pleased to listen to him. keep yourselves

fan was just then the only thing in the
world worth having Out came the pocket
