MILLER'S OWN STORY.

Boy Murderer.

Paris Green.

an Orphan Asylum.

Far West.
Queer Story Which He Relates Re,

Little round-shouldered, hollow chested
Charley Miller was the center OF interest
at the court house yesterday. The court
room vas thronged throughout the day.
To accommodate the visitors. particularly
the ladies in attendance, seats were
placed within the bar. A score OF people
stood up. craning their necks to get a
sight of the witnesses aud straining their
hearing to get an inklin0 Of what they
said. Millcr's appearance on the stand
created a buzz of interest and his ap-
pearance seemed to be freely criticised.
His age IS but a little over Is years. He
looks immature and undeveloped. Judg-
ing from his appearance, one might
readily imagine that his mother had died
of consumption. His hair Is light and
thick and almost covers the forehead.
His most prominent feature is his nose,
which is large. somewhat hooked, and
very thin. Miller is completely insignif-
cant in appearance, though his story
scarcely created as much sympathy for
him as might have been expected from
his iriendless position.

were Mr.. and Mrs. Emerson. of st. Joe.
