enough to get plenty of gsme. We

six squirrels aud a sheep. The dinner
consisted of squirrels, saddle Of mutton,
bread, coffee, pickles, eggs, melobs, and
last but not least, jug. To show TO
each other that they We're all of a

10 Mulhattan Tloored =.

Last Thursday evening we met Mr..
w. B. Render on the street. He greeted
us very cordially and offered us two
peaches, saying he would give more il
he had them. We thaked him and re-
marked that two were as many as we
cared to eat AT once, but when boy
we had eaten as many as half dozen
at time. Mr. Render said a half
dozen was not taste for him when he
was boy, that one time he had been
working the road and went home Just
before dinner, and found a basket OF
peaches sitting in the room and began
eating them while waiting for dinner.
He laid the seeds back i'm one end OF
the basket and continued eating peach
es till dinner was announced, when he
eaten 6S large peaches. He then ate a
hearty dinner.
We suggested that Mulhattan be sent
for, when Mr.. Render fired up aud
said he would make oath that every
word he bad said was true. That set
ties it. Mulhattan is distanced in the
first heat and had as well pass over the
horns tn Mr.. Render, who has gone to
the front at the first effort.
MIR. James +. Carson was present
and heard Mr.. Render turn Num-
chausen, Gulliver and Mulhattan all
down at one effort, and will attest that
the foregoing is "a fair statement Of the

Prof Alexander IN Right.

On Monday morning last, Prof
Alexander, President of Hartford Col.
lege, announced to the young men,
attending this Institute, that they
were strictly forbidden to drink any
kind of Intoxicating liquors, as beyer-
age, or to visit drinking saloons while
students of Hartford College. He said
that parents and guardians had placed
these young men under his tutorage
for the purpose of having them educated
and fitted for honorable and useful avo-
cations and professions which could not
well be done, if they visited saloons en-
gagged in drinking and other attendant
evils. He said it was expected of him,
and it was his duty,to see, that no young
man was led astray and wrecked in the
gulf of inebriety, while attending Hart,
ford College and by the aid of the Great
Eternal he intended to perform this du-
ty. He said the penalty for violating this
rule was immediate and absolute ex-
pulsion from the College.

Tho Phipps' WIN Case.

AT the time Of gGing to press last
week, II. \. Stevens had been sum-
moned to act as judge. II appeared
that he was distantly related to some
of the heirs and he had 10 vacate. w.
|. Rowe being the next nearest magis-
trate, was summoned and being related
to quite number of the heirs, he
refused To serve. G.. l.. Fields is the
next nearest justice Of the peace. so the
Sheriff was directed to invite him to
ascend the County Judges throne.
He obeyed but he fell like his prede-
cessors, he was related to at least one of
the contestants. The mantle naturally
tell upon A. s. Aull, he being the next
nearest to the seat of Justice. Alb.
Smeared the seat of his pantaloons
well with mucilage before entering the
judges stand so when he sat down on
that judicial bench he stuck and staid
there and ii seems both sides are happy.
After good deal of speechifying he
ordered summons to issue against all
the heirs of Washington Phipps, de-
ceased, and continued the case to the
October term.

Murder MOsf FouI

Tuesday morning the citizens OF
Hartford heard the soul-harrowing re-
port of the murder of Frank Griffin, by
poisoning, the night before. The foul
deed was not discovered until next
morning. There is no clue to the fiend
incarnate, who committed the diabol'
ical act. Frank Griffin was about four
years old, and was one of the best bird
dogs in Southern Kentucky, and nc
doubt his spirit has winged its flight to
dog heaven.

A Preacher Discharged from the Pen
iUCntiary.

The discharge Of the Rev. Sam
McGhee from the Illinois peni-
tentiary, after serving ten years
sentence, revives public interest
In his crime. McGhee lived 1T
Aston, III. His wife fell sick.
and in spite of medical treatment
grew worse, suffered two months
OF excruciating pain, and breathed
her last amid the tears and prayers
OF her bereaved husband. After
the funeral the rascal bore up
wonderfully well, and in a short
time he struck a pretty eighteen
year-old girl like warm wave
and proposed marriage. Public
suspicion was excited and Nc
Ghee was charged with the mur-
der of his wife. The evidence
showed that he had purchased ar
senic several times during his
wife's illness, and unable to ex-
plain what be did with it. 1t was
also shown that for some time he
had been infatuated with the girl
he proposed to marry. While in
jail McGhee induced his twelve
year-old daughter to sign a con-
fession that it was she who had
poisoned her mother. The COW
ardly trick was exposed and crea-
ted intense Indignation. McGhee
was 35 when he went to prison
He comes out at the age Of 45
gray-headed and feeble. He will
now find the girl 70: whose sake
he committed the murder married
to another man. No welcome
awaits him in any quarter, ans
the wreck of his life is complete
