The Scent Of Dogs

Dur sense of smell is hardly kern
enough to enable US 10 understand how
II is possible for The dog to do what he
can do with his nose. The hound and
even many common cur dogs VII rae.
Ognize tile scent of rabbits foot
hours after the rabbit has passed
along, and will moi only find his m.
visible track but will determine which
wav the rabbi went
1t this b. wonderful what IL 10 lie
said of a dogs never confusing the
track of one rabbit with that Of an.
other? After dog has once seen that
n rabbit ~ dead lie will never notice
the track AGAIN.
All hounds save the greyhound run
entirely by SCENT. An experienced
hunter can tell by the baying not only
where the dog is. but Nv the frequency
and confidence Of the sound how fresh
the trail is.

Died In tho Hos,,,,.I.

John Frey arrived in town early last
week from Candelaria in very feeble
condition, from lead poisoning, and
was admitted TO the hospital. Owing
to the absence OF the County Physician
from town, the invalid was without
medical care fortwo days, When the
doctor arrived he did what he could,
but Frey died on Friday night. As
the man wins without money, our citi !.
zcns subscribed an amount sutiie lent
to purchase fitting garments and for
other trifiing expenses incidental to
| the occasion, and he was given decent
burial on Saturday.
Complaint is made that accommo.
dations at the hospital are entirely in.
adequate. Ii is SAID the nurse who
tended Frey voluntarily was obliged
to procure his own lights, and that the
wihduws are token In such h ,asuner
| that cats could easily gain access and
mutllate the corpse which would have
been unmatched during the night but
tor he kindness of Chris Aaroe. Snch
/ et'ndition of affairs is "a dissracu 10
our county. The Cutnm'sslpiacrs
should inquire into these complaints
anti endcayor TO remedy the evils said
to exist.

w. r High VS.. the State; appeal from
Smith. Conviction for murder iii the
second degree. Defendant, an officer at
the depot, and empowered with authority
to do so, ordered the deceased TO get off
the platform. He also put his hand
against deceased to shove or push him
of. Deceased cursed him, told him not
to shove him or he would "kick IL lung
out of him. - Defendant cursed back
told deceased if he got, upon the platform
he would push him off. Deceased shook
his fist in defendant IS face, and as defen-
dant pushed or showed him away, de-
ceased struck him q severe blow i'll the
mouth, which knocked out "corner
toOth' and sent him staggering several
feet against the side of car,
which prevented his falling entirely
upon the ground. As soon as defendant
could recover himself and straighten up,
he drew his pistol and Immediately fired
the fatal shot at the deceased, who was
standing within few feet, with his fist
doubled and drawn back as though in
tending to strike again. ,. If defendant
had already received serious bodily injury
at the hands of deceased aud it reasOna-
bly, appeared to him from the acts and
conduct of deceased that the combat was
not over, that he was about to receive ad-
ditional bodily injury from de-
ceased, that deceased had the ability TO
infict the injury, that the danger
was threatening and imminent-and
under such circumstances, and 50 be-
lieying, he shot and killed deceased
then under the law, and under our stat
ute, he would be jIstifiable upon the
ground of his necessary self-defense, and
if Il jury should So believe they should
acquit him. The court erred in failing 20
charge upon this phase of seif-defeuse
B. The "frOnt tOoth'' is not used in
terms in our code as ''member of
the body, - but we think it clear
that it comes within the import
of the word MEMBER as used in the
code and in common acceptation and I'M
der the authorities, we believe that as 10
the front tOoth'' the court may well
assume that it is men Der of the body
without submitting the question as one of

A Farmer and His Wife Murdered in Cold Blood
by Hired Mana Full Confession.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 10.-Near New
Albany, Ind. yesterday afternoon Jacob
Mottweiler was found murdered about a
quarter of a mile from his farm house
and his wife was lying unconscious in the
stable yard. Mottweiler had been shot
through the head while his wife had been
stunned by a blow with an ak.
Mrs. Mottweiler is still alive,
but as yet no statement has
been obtained from her. With
the MottweilerS lived A. NJ Benson, n
laborer on the farm, and Sally Snyder,
servant girl. The girl first repo ted the
murder to Jacob Schaffer, neighbor.
Schaffer at once gathered other neigh
bOrs and took the bodies to the house,
where a cQrOner's inquest was held, the
verdict of which! has not yet been rem
dered. Benson and Miss Snyder were at
once put under arrest. BY separating
them and telling Benson the girl had con-
fessed that Benson and she had killed the
Mottweilers, Benson was induced to con-
fess. He said he was engaged TO
marry Miss Snyder. She was found to
be i'll delicate condition, and this gave
rise to inquiries between himself and the
Mottweilers several days ago, over which
bitter feeling continued. As he returned
from hunting yesterday he met Mott
weller and shot him. Coming on to the
house he found Mrs. MOttweiller milking
and hit her a blow over the head with an
AK. He then went to the house and told
the Girl what he had done
