Eagan's Trial for Murder.

The general expectation has been
disappointed of witnessing the speedy
trial at the March term of the superior
court, of VIM. A. Eagan, for the mur-
der of Patrick O'Conror. The crowd
expected to see Eagan brought into
court on Monday, but Eagan was. not
there. The reason of the delay is that
the defense has not yet gotten its case
fully ready. Time until the goth inst.
has been granted the defense in which
to get its case in readiness. and it is not
likely that anything definite will be an
nounced before the time stated.

Making of Lincolnshire" or elicit
whisky is gradually dying out, and
the inhabitants of the foothills and
mountains are disseminating this ne
farious business and turning their
attentions to more honest and better
paying pursuits. This has been
brought about, not 50 much by the
enforcement of the revenue laws, as
it has been by the sentiment of the
mounting people" having under
gone change. They have come to
view the matter in its proper light
and plainly see that whisky making
has been their worse fault, and has
never proftted them anything in the
long run. Old moonshiners them
selves say they never made anything
clear out of the business, and if one
did save up few dollars from the
traffic some calamity was sure to ov-
ertake them and sweep it away, and
usually the calamity was brought on
by the moonshine.
