How Solomon Swore.-Solomon Wolman,
an Israeite, kept an unlicensed grog.shop on the
Philadelphia road, near where Daniel Brosnan
was murdered by Italian Tom, on the night of
the 9th of April last. Solomon was witness in
the trial of Toms case in the Circuit Court here
this week, and when called to the stand he, being
Jew, at his own request, was sworn upon the
Five Books of Moses, with his hat on. When the
case was concluded and the witnesses were called
to swear to their attendance. in order to secure
their per diem, Solomon appeared to be highly
elated at the prospect of being paid for four days
attendance and rushing up with his hat in hand,
took the oath on the ordinary bible, never even
intimating that his religion required him to be
otherwise sworn. In his anxiety to pocket the
money Solomon forgot all about the Five Books
ofMoses. Like good many other people he
only carried his religion around for show--to use
it when it would be to his advantage to do SO.

Tried for Murder.-Thomas Julian, alias
Italian Tom, indicted for the murder of Daniel
Brosnan, at house on the Philadelphia road,
in the lth district of this county, on the night OF
April 9Th, 1885, tried this week in the Circuit
Court here, the case commencing on Monday,
Judges Yellott and Fowler on the bench Julian
is a brutal looking Italian, and had been employ
ed as a laborer on the new B. & o. extension,
while his victim, who was blacksmith doing
work for the contractors the road, is represen-
ted to have been quiet and inofensive man.
The murder appears to have been committed
without any provocation, and grew out OF tight
with which Brosnan was in no way connected.
States Attorney Burke conducted the prosecution,
assisted by Mr.. J. J. Lindsay, and Messrs. Ensor
and Duncan appeared for the prisoner The
following composed the jury: John W. Wagner,
foreman; Chas. Phillips, D. S. Kline, John B.
Frank, Frank Resi-, John W. Cooper, VIM. W.
Bone, John 7. Kennedy, Geo. w. Bowen, F. S.
Corkran, Jr., J. N. Henderson and Samuel &.
Wilson. A dozen or more witnesses were exam
ined for the State, most of whom swore positively
that Julian was the man who cut Brosnan. John
Brosnan a brother of the murdered man, who
was also seriously cut by Julian at the same time,
saw him plunge the knife into his brothers body
and heard the EXPLANATIONS which followed. The
defense set up was that Julian was grossly intoxi
Gated at the time of the act that therewere other
armed Italians present who might have done the
cutting, and that the case against the accused
was one of mistaken identity, &c. The testimony
was concluded on Wednesday evening and on
Thursday counsel addressed the jury at length,
the State insisting on verdict of murder in the
first degree, while the defense claimed that the
jury could not go beyond manslaughter.
States Attorney Burke concluded his very able
argument about o'clock on Thursday evening,
when the case was given to the jury who return
ed verdict at the assembling of court on Friday
morning of murder in the second degree.

Through One of Our Leading Dry Goods
Houses.
A representative of THE GAZETTE casu-
ally dropped into the cash dry goods
house Of Messrs Malone, Waller & Co.,
yesterday and found business lively as
usual, in fact this house seems to do Il
fair trade, Notwithstanding the season
has not vet fairly opened up. This firm
have been making some very valuable inn
proyements TO accommodate their i'm
mense stock, and new goods that will be-
gin to arrive soon, their buyer being In
New York, hence ii will be but short
time before they will have one OF the
most complete stocks OF any retail dry
goods establishment in the South.
Ample preparations have been made in
their building, by adding another story,
giving them more floor, and shelf room, a
very much needed Improvement for their
growing trade. This house Is receiving
some OF their factory goods now daily,
direct from Glenn Falls. A large ship
ment OF Glen Falls shirts was received
Yesterday and more on the road TO arrive.
This firm is one of the most successful
cash stores in the state; by selling goods
low down, they have been
enabled to build up first
class trade and expand their bust
ness into an elegant double-store
building, with double decker all
around the entire building. This adds
greatly to the convenience OF the estab-
iishment and furnishes more room for
their mammoth stock that Will supply
their fall and winter trade. In addition
to the already popular force OF this house
Mr.. Rainwater of Atlanta, Ga, Mr.. Hode
OF London, and Mr.. Colon of Nashville,
Tenn, all experienced statesmen and busi-
ness men have been added, and With such
team to pull together as this, we can
but predict successful business Tor Ma
