DEER LODGE, April l2-[Special to the
independent lin the case of the territory
against Gus johnson, for killing Jno l..
Carlson, the jury came into court tonight
at $40 o'clock, finding the defendant guilty
OF murder in the first degree. This means
a sentence of death. The verdict was un.
expected, but IL was generally thought that
IL would be murder In the second de-
gree. No change In the countenance OF
the defendant could be seen, but he is nat
urally a stolid person. The jury stood at
the beginning eight for murder in the first
degree and four for murder In the second
degree. The strAngest thing about the
trial is that II attracted but few persons TO
the court room, and scarcely over a dozen
persons were there at any time during the

THE IRON KING,

my Dear, pray what shall we do?'
Once asked my loving wife;
We have no cook, You know, now,
TO stem the kitchens strife;
This STOPPING and cooking
Over fires large and hot,
Is perplcXing and vexing,
Oh who has lelt It not?
The labors OF the kitchen,
Since our negroes went away.
Were both toilsome and irksome.
And still are so today;
Can't you tighten and bri ,hten
This load OF heavy care,
That distresses, Expresses,
And drives me to despair?"
Said I, "Tll go to FULToN's
And there a stove I'll buy,
No matter what the price is,
An Iron KING I'll try;
Then roasting and toasting,
Will not wear away your life,
But pleasure and treasure
Be to you my angel wife,"
So down to town I hurried,
Almost as quick as thought,
And there from JOHN A. FUKTox,
An IRON KING [ bought:
And now broiling and boiling
Are the sweetest works IN life,
No more caring, despairing,
Distresses now my wife,
Farewell, we dirty negroes,
Tn Independent now,
For wife can do the cooking,
With a smile upon her brow
No whining, no repining,
No angry threatenings ring,
But my meals now, reveal now,
How cheap is IRoN KING.

Her kitchen trials set at ease,

Prove sweet as flowers of May.
