Killing, but Admits Having As
sisted In Another Murder.

III ]. Mingo Jones, the negro who is
suspected and accused of the murder
OF Paul and Rosa JUST, is not guilty OF
that foul crime. he is nevertheless a
criminal 80 deeply dyed in villainy
that the record of his misdeeds, II
faithfully cbropic'ed, would make a
story of crime startling in its iuiquity.
He was interviewed yesterday at the
Jail by an APPEAL reporter, and while
ne stoutly denied completely in the
Jusii muId5r he made admissions that

Fourth-That about fifteen years
ago he assisted in the poisoning Of

that the p ison was furnished TO him
by the woman's husband.

the $3.50 in money is conc aled where

may fix his guilt, as there
was gold watch among the
things stolen from the i'll fated

not, the Sheriff has in his custody in
