ingly utterly unconscious of the fact that
the class of people thus designated are
not, in large number of instances,

reverse of what is recommended. The
Negroes are urgently invoked to come

is that that respectable white element,

PATRICK MULHERN of Rutland was in-
stantly killed by the accidental discharge
of gun while hunting on Thursday Mr.
Mulhern in company with p. f. Mullen
and j. f. Copps, started early in the morn
ing for hunt on Belgo mountain. The
three kept together. At about four o'clock
in the afternoon Mullen sat down on an old
log to rest. Mulhern stood on the log to
the right of Mullen, with his right hand on
the barrel of the gun near the muzzle and
the butt of the gun on the ground in front
OF the log, Mulhern undoubtedly started
to lift the gun TO the log and turned his
head to speak to Mullen at the same time
AS he lifted the gun from the ground the
hammer caught on a small limb projecting
from the log on which he was standing.
The hammer was not lifted far enough to
catch, but when it slipped from the branch
1t came down with sufficient force to dis
charge the gun. The charge struck Null
hern just back OF the right ear, killing him
instantly. The place where the accident
occurred was nearly a mile and quarter
from the highway, and it was with much
difficulty that conveyance could be gotten
through the woods to the spot. Mr.. Null
hern was twenty-five years old and was
highly respected young man. He leaves
widow and two small children.

When arrested Cross told the officer stories
in an effort TO establish his innocence, but
in the evening he admitted his guilt and
said that he would waive examination and
take his sentence at the earliest opportu-

he exchanged for watch and then sold the
