A COwardly Murder.

CARTHAGE. Mo-, Jan.2 g.
One of the most cowardly and dastardly
murders ever committed in the county was
perpetrated yesterday afternoon on jones'
Creek, ten miles south of Carthage. News
Of the murder did not reach this city until
to-day. The victim i; James Cherry, aged
about seventy years, and the murderer is
Wilson Hall, about twenty years old. The
cause of the murder arose from a lawsuit
over some land, i'm which Hall was worst
ed. For revenge ne resortedt to the horrible
crime of numbering old man Cherry. Hall
concealed himself behind some brush, quite
q distance from where Cherry was at work
oiIing brush, and when he was STOPPING
over his assassin shot him with a rifle, the
ball entering the hack of his head and COM
ing out at the forehead, killing him almost
instantly. The murderer ran away, but
was recognized by Cherry's children as
Wilson Hall, son of j. ID. Hall, an old resi-
dent of this county. The alarm was given
and the nei yhbnrs pursued the murderer to
his home. but did net arrest him., as 1t was
dark. They guarded the house all night.
He was arrested this morning by the con-
stable of Union Township and Will have q
hearing tomorrow.

Emperor Williams OI.Lamp.

The s:ady-lamp on Emperor Williams
workable is a simple oil-lamp of a pat
tern such as since the introduction of
petroleum lamps can hardly be met
with on the table of the humblest eiti-
zen of Berlin. The following incident
may account for the non-admittance of
the improved petroleum lamp into the
historical corner room of the Imperial
Palace. The Emperor, whose simple
and economical habits are well known,
has for years been accustomed to screw
down the wick whenever he ceases writ
ing, or reading, or leaves the room.
When the petroleum lamps finally came
into general use, the Emperor's valet,
Krause. brought one and put it on the
workable. True to his habit, his
Imperial master screwed down the wick
on leaving off writing, and. as a matter
of course, the room was soon filled with
an almost insupportable smoke, which
greatly affected the o S and eyes of the
monarch, and necessitated the opening
of doors and windows. Krause finally
volunteered the remark: mo, your
Majesty. this sort of lamp will not suit"
''But what are we to do, krause? Had
we better get u Oil-lamp back again?
You know my eyes are weaker and re-
quire a brighter light ''Well, your
Majesty, we can have a new lamp made
with an extra large burner, so as to do
away with petroleum altogether"
''Quite right. Krause, let us try it."
And Krause got a lamp of the old pat
tern, had the burner enlarged to an al
most colossal size, a green glass shade
added to it, and to this day the new
lamp, defying all innovations, asserts its
place of honor on the workable of the
most diligent of all monarchs.-Parfs

An accident that resulted in the instant

Without a moments warning the timbers

was SO unexpected that the men

but went down with the wreck,
and were buried under the mass of steel.
A long time was consumed in removing

Gently, in a gulch near Webster, Col. Re-
turning from a visit to their daughter,
whose home is at Grant Station. they
lost their way. They travelled until
after nightfall before they found a cabin.
In it was a rude table, some chairs, q
large open stove, and a good supply of
fuel, and on a shelf were six loaded re-
volvers. several cartridge belts filled
with ammunition, and three pairs of
spurs. Mr.. Guthrie stabbed his horses in
the dark, and re-entered the cabin and
fastened the heavy door with a huge bolt
that fitted into slots in the logs. At
about midnight Mr.. and Mrs. Guthrie
were awaked by sounds outside. A man
said: II wonder who is there! Shall
we force the door?" The answer was:
'.'Taint no use; that door will stand as
long as the cabin itself" Then the
voices faded away. Mr.. Guthrie lay until
long after daybreak ere he ventured out.
Then, on going to harness his horses by
daylight, he found in the barn six mail
bags that had been opened, and other
evidences of h~ighwaymen's operations.
