COL. BRECKENRIDGE
Suspended From Communion IN the
MI. HOreb Church.

PARIS, KY, October 13.-Col. w. c.
P. Breckinridge has been suspended
from communion by Mount Horeb
church in Fayette county. The pas
tor OF the church, Rev. G. T, Thompson,
gives the Kentucky Citizen the fol
lowing facts for its issue OF today:
"On last Sunday morning at the
Mount Horeb church, the pastor read
publicly the action OF the church con-
corning w. g. P. Breckinridge, who
had made to them a confession of his
guilt and asked the prayers and love
OF his brethren in leading a Christian
liie." The unanimous decision of the
officers was that while accepting his
repentance as sincere and heartfelt
the great publicity Of the sin demand
cd some public action, so he was sus
pended from the sacraments till Feb
!, 1895. The law of the Presbyterian
Church Book Of Church Orders, para.
graph 158, is, definite suspension is
administered when the credit OF relig
ion, the honor OF Christ and the good
OF the offender demanded it, even
though he may have given satisfac
tion to the court"

RICHARDS MURDERED.
Sensational Murder Near Blufr City
Saturday Night.

Under the above caption we clip Che
following particulars from the Bristol
Courier OF the 10th inst
Will Richards, a man of family, y,whose
home was near GLOW RS Springs, was
murdered in the woods one and half
miles southeast of Bluff City Saturday
night sbout 8 O'Clock, and the suspect.
ed murderers Were quickly spotted
1t was not known that Richards had
been killed until his dead body was
found on Sunday morning, with a bull
let hoe in the back OF his head, the bul
let having penetrated the brain.
The murder occurred within three
hund ed yards Of the home of Mrs
Looney Glover, who has been keeping
a questionable house.
At the coroner's inquest on Sunday
the full story of the killing came TO
light. Itappears, according to the tes-
tlmony of the Glover woman, that Will
Richards and James b. Arrants were
in their house at an early hour Satur
day night twas suggested byArrants
that they Che and Richards) go out and

ner's jury that short time after they
left the house, she heard several pistol

she would keepit quiet, he would see
that she never suffered for anything
during the rest OF her life. Arrants
then left the house.
RICHARDS COUSIN IMPLICATED.
Arr ,nts aud Lee Richards, a son OF
G. w Richards, were seen going in
the direction OF Govers Saturday
evening, and the general opinion is
that he was an accOmplce in the muir,
| der, that he waited until Arrants in
duced Richards to come out OF .he
house and the two murdered him in
accordance with previously con
ceive plan.
When shot Richards evidently had
a load of wood on his shoulder. When
his body was discovered, the wood lay
scattered ahoutit.
In accordance with the evidence the
jury rendered verdict that to The
best of their knowledge and belief
Will Richards was killed by James B.
Arrants and Lee Richards. The latter
is second cousin of the murdered
man.
Arranss is the young man who Tor
/
merly was engaged in the mercantile
business at Blnif City, and who went
wrong for the first time when he went
to Knoxville and forged two or three
checks, aggregating about $400, on

FOOTBALL REVIVAL.

A Coach Coming From Berkeley for
Practice Games.
It is evident there 10 to be q revival
of interest in the great great of football
in this city during the winter months.
A meeting OF football enthusiasts was
held on last Thursdsy night. There was
considerable football material at the
meeting. and also the old reliable coach,
Mr.. 8. M. Haskins, who brought the
Olive team Into such excellent form last
year.
The result of the meeting was that the
football men Of the city, whether they
are members OF the Athletic club or mot,
will meet for practice on the grounds of
the club today at about $3.50, and there
after, until further notice, the regular
football practice days will be Wednes-
days and Saturdays. As the season
ripens the practice days will become
more frequent; and probably after
Thanksgiving day there will be a coach
here from the Berkeley team-some
man who has played under MoClung,
Heffelfnger and Gill; and after the
northern coach comes, the practice will
probably be daily.
A tsckling bag is being made for the
the club. at the present time which will
be put up on the grounds for the benefit
of the players.
Berkeley, as we'll as Stanford, will be
here during the holidays, and it ie hoped
to have number Of good local games
arranged between Southern California
teams before that time. Already nego-
tiations are pending for game on cleo
tion day.
