Second Degree.

| At halfpast ten o'clock on Saturday
night the jury in the murder case, after
being out seven hours, returned a verdict
of Guilty of murder in the second
degree" the maximum sentence for
which Is twelve years in the penitentiary;
and while every one seemed satisfied, the
/ defense certainly has no reason for com
plant.
Our report of last week closed at the
point where the defense had submitted the
testimony of medical experts. The Court
had ruled favorably for the testimony and
DR.. Hoover was called. He stated that
alcohol sometimes caused acute mania,
and any person suffering from it would be
unaccoLntable for deeds committed while
the mania lasted. Upon recovering the
person would have no recollection Of
anything done during the mania. He was
followed and his testimony July
corroborated by DIR. Graham, DR.. Zmmer-
man and DIR. Bell.
On Friday morning the arguments began
with ~ Z. Reiber, Esq for the prose
cution, who spoke excellently, a. indeed
did all Of the attorneys. Thompson, Nc
Candies, McQuistion and Forquer spoke
for the defendent 5. F. Bowser made
one OF the most able arguments of tie
trial for the eeution-but each man
seemed to outdo himself
Judge Hazen's charge on Saturday was
spoken of rs perfectly fair and impartial
by both sides SO it must have been SO.
When the jury went out, they first toak
vote whether ar not Mills did the
killing and ali agreed that he had. The
second ballot was on the degree Of murder,
and they found that they were evenly
divided, half for first degree verdict and
half for a second. The second degree men
did not believe Mills was entirely respon-
sible and gradually won the Others to
their way of thinking.
Wednesday morning the Court sentenced
Mills to the peDitentiary for twelve years
for the murder, and two years for break
ing jail, making IA years in all, and he
was taken to Riverside that afternoon by
Sheriff Brown and Deputy Doughett
The medical evidence in the case seem
ed To be somewhat of a surprise To the |
prose, ution, and Col. Thompson's first
question to DIR. Hoover after he had been |
sworn and had stated that he was o prac-
ticing physician, was one that young phy |
sicians can study over II was as follow :: |

ical effect of the excessive use of alcohol |
