was NO Blood ON x1ss ClOihinR.
CAIRO, Ills, July 1O.-It is now pretty
generally conceded that c. J. Miller, the
Springfield, Ills. mulatto who was
KY. Friday afternoon, was executed
upon the himiest of circumstantial evil
dencc. or probably no evidence at all.
There was not one tangible thing that
connected him with the assault and MUIR
der of the Ray sisters last Wednesday
morning.
Information from a trust worthy source
at Wycliffe is that a telegram has been
received there confirming Milier's state
mcnt as to where he was July 4 and 5.
Miller's story was that he was at Bis
marck, Mo-, the morning of July S. No
one has brought forward any evidence
to the contrary. Careful inquiry has
failed to disclose single person who
will say positively that he saw Miller in
Bardwell or even Carlisle county that
day.
Miller's first examination was held at
Wickliffe, KY, Friday morning. 1t
had been generally understood up to
clothing of the negro. and that a razor
and large pocket knife which he car
ried were also covered with blood. 1t
turns out that not one of those who
were present at the examination was
convinced in his own mind that there
were blood stains on the knife and razor
or his cloQhing. The aid of microscope
was called into requisition to facilitate
| the examination. but even it failed to
reveal a blood stain. Wickliffe's people
thinking that the proofs were insufficient
| refrained from lynching Miller and pre-
TERED to wait developments.
At Bardwell after the man was dead
there was no jutliation manifested. On the
contrary, sort of mental wet blanket
| seemed to settle down over the crowd.
Two out of every three men cautiously
expressed doubts as to the propriety Of
their action, and said they feared Mil.
| ler's connection with the murder was
not fully established. Miller never lived
| in Cairo. as was stated in the Springfield
dispatches, and was not known here.

Keeping the head perfectly clean is a
great aid to health. An exchange tells of
a distinguished physician who, having
spent much of his time Mt quarantine, said
that person whose head was thoroughly
washed every day rarely took contagious
diseases, but when the hair was allowed
to become dirty and matted it was hardly
possible to escape infection. Many persons
find speedy relief for nervous headache by
washing the head thoroughlyin weak soda
water. We have known cases almost
wholly cured in ten minutes by this sim

Bake Bread in q slow oven.

1t is wrong to put the dough for bread
in hot oven. The oven should only be
slightly warm, and then heated gradually.
This plan has been been tested by a Lon.
don baker, who asserts that the intense
heat, suddenly striking the surface of the
dough. kills the yeast influence which
should make the bread rise. He tried an
experiment by having the dough put in
the oven of a gas stove, slightly warmed
and gradually increased the heat till it
reached the degree at which bread bakes.
The result was simply wonderful. Bread
baked in this fashion rises to amazing size,
aud the loaf is Of a spongy lightness.-
