A Talk with I<ibler-innocens or
Fine Actor-The Rains.

BERRYVILLE, VA, March 2L-(Spe-
cial)-Your correspondent had an inter-
view yesterday with young Newton kib-
ler who is in the county Jail Of Clarke
county. under sentence Of death for the
murder Of his uncle, Willis Kibler OF
Page county, on November D, $50 Md
Ter had just been informed by his counsel
Hon. Marshall Mccormick, of this place,
of the action of the Supreme Court OK
Appeals granting him a new trial and
was, of course, in fine spirits at the pros
pect Of escaping the gallows, although,
at no time since his Incarceration, now
covering a period of about fourteen
months, had he been in very low spirits
or seemed to doubt that he would ultl-
mately be found not guilty of the crime
with which he is charged The universal
opinion of those who have come IN con-
tact with him, is either he is an innocent
manor rather boy, for he is only 10 and
very youthful in appearance-or the
finest actor off Of the stage. KILLER
would not converse on the subject of the
murder of his uncle but the whole tone
of his conversation indicated that he eN-
pected to be acquitted. 1t is thought
that his counsel will endeavor to get
change of venue, so that the new trial
may De udu III inherent Nouily anu
not in the atmosphere of intense feeling
against KILLER which surrounded him IN
his previous trial. During his contne-
ment KILLER has written a history or
all that has happened to him since his
arrest, going into the minutest details Of
his trial and life in jail.
The recent fine rains have been of great
benefit 70 the wheat and grass in Clarke
county, and In spite Of the cold weather
OF the last day or two, the fields are now
looking beautiful in their garniture Of
green, and the prospect for both wheat
and grass never more promising at this
season of the year.
The wet weather has had the effect Of
delaying the farmers somewhat in their
spring ploughing, and they will be kept
busy now in order to get the ground In
order for planting.

Mid shouts of fun and laughter,
And, looking out, a merry group
OF boys was following after,
While down the street in swift retreat
Poor Rover in his fright
From unknown danger in his rear
Safe refuge sought in flight.
Before the iron horse
Uad cOursed the iron track
From sea to sea, and brought
It's train in safety back,
My SECOND ranged the plains at viii,
And lurked In stealth around
The pathway of the emigrant
To California bound.

That one day he gave command
To waters of the swelling tide
To leave the unbaded land
Not that he dreamed a moment
The waters would obey,
But 20 show his fiattering courtiers
No mortal had such sway,
And rebuke the vile suggestion
To accord him as his own .
The homage and the reverence duo
To God, and God alone.
