THE RlTCHEY TRIAL.
E. b. Goodwin Gives Damaging Evidence
Against the Accused.

e. b. Goodwin Gives Damaging Evidence
Against the Accused.
Fort Collins, July 9.-(Special)-The
trial of John ]. Ritchey for the murder of
H. B. Rhodes is still being continued.
The most important testimonyyesterday
was that of Pat Casey, a deaf mute.
Casey testified in reference tc the knife
found near the place where Rhodes, the
victim, was shot. Ritchey claims that
Rhodes assaulted him with knife and
he shot in self defense. Tie knife found
proved to have been Ritchey's, but the
latter claims that it has been stolen from
his cabin year previously, while Casey
maintains that he had seen the knife in
Ritchey's possession very near the time
of the tragedy. The effort to show the
ownership of the knife by Casey's testi-
mony, as in the first trial, proved unavail-
ing, and will have to come up in rebuttal.
The first witness this morning was w.
c. Dyer, who testified as to the exhibits.
George Sisson. who was present at the
'coroner's inquest, testified that the shirt
worn by Rhodes was burnt only in the
front. H. c. Thompson testified to hav.
ing overheard conversation between
Ritchey and Rhodes when they were in
a store together, and heard Ritchey say
that he would kill the if
they didn't keep out of the nine. Prof.
VIM. Rule testified to practically the
same story as that given by Thompson.
The most important testimony of the
day was that given bv E. B. Goodwin.
who said that he had known the accused
all his life, that he had frequently con-
versed with him OF the subject OF the
trouble and had advised him to let the
law take its course; that Richie had said
the law was too slow and that he would
kill the - that Rltchey
had asked him what jury would do if
he killed Rhodes, and Goodwin told him
if he were one of the jury he would hang
him. Ritchey then asked what if he shot
him in self defense and Goodwin advis-
ed him he had better not try that
The testimony of Goodwin was intro
duced at this trial for the first time and
it produced profound sensation. With
its conclusion the prosecution rested.
Charles Truitt who was convicted as
an accessory to the crime, and is now
serving term in the penitentary, was
brought up on writ of habeas corpus,
and was the first witness for the defense.
At this time his testimony has not
brought out anything of importance.
The case so far has been conducted
very differently than before, and much
is being left to be introduced in rebuttal.
The accused is being tried for murder in
the first degree, the court not having
ruled on the motion to try Tor the second
degree.

The location of the Spring, as shown by
the accompanying plan, is in the Middle
sex Fells, in the town of Stoneham, near
Melrose, Mass, beautifully wild, un-
cultivated, rocky region, seemingly set
apart by Nature for the production of
pure air and pure water. 1t is not new
ly discovered spring, but has been favor
ably known in its primeval condition to
many Of the inhabitants of Melrose and
Stoneham for many years. Whenever an
especially refreshing drink of cool, invig-
Grating water was wanted it was the Gus
tom of those who knew of its existence
to satisfy their desire at this Spring. The
work of developing and testing the water
was begun in a small way three years ago,
and with such surprisingly encouraging
results as to make it evident that here
issues from the solid lodges a water not
excelled as table water by any on the
market. Its sparkling clean ness and color
less appearance as well as its refreshing
taste, was seconded and supported by

Question Whether Farming In Nebraska Pays.
The Commissioners of Labor of Ne
braska recently sent to leading farmers in
every county blanks to be filled out with
answers to the questions. ''Does farming
pay?' and ''What legislation do you
think necessary to relieve the condition of
the farmero''
The names were secured from legislators
from each county, who were asked to give
the names of four Populists, three Demo
Gratis aud three Republicans, who were
not tenant farmers, but who might be
considered representative farmers. Thus
far he has received 100 replies. Republi-
cans have answered more promptly than
any others.
The tabulation shows that II are of the
opinion that farming does not pay, p say
that it does, four that it pays as we'll as
anything else, while the remaining four
are unable to say whether it does or not.
Several of those who answered Eyes, lad
ded that exclusive grain farming does not
pay, but a side line of stock does.
On the question what legislation would
be beneficial, the answers vary greatly.
A number are of the opinion that the en-
forcement of anti trust laws, designed to
do away with holding up prices on what
the farmer buys, would be beneficial.
The coinage of silver at Is to is consid-
cred by the majority as necessary.
About so per cent. are of the opinion
that lower freight rates are an absolute
necessity. About 40 per cent. favor gov
eminent ownership of railroads, several
an income tax, while the balance think an
import duty on farm products the thing.

Mrs. Stoves Estate,
Not Sufficient to Allow Her Daughters to Keep
the Hartford Home,

HARTFORD, Conn, July .. The meagre-
ness of the estate left by Harriet Beech
Ell Stowe is soon to be made apparent.
Her twin daughters, who made home for
her on Forest street, in this city, for many
years, are in danger of being deprived of
the old home. When Mrs. Stowe made
her will she thought she would leave prop
erty enough to amply provide for her
daughters and also for her son, the Rev.
Charles T. Stowe of Simsbury. Her son
was to take care of the property in the in
terest OF his sisters. By codicil she be-
queathed her Forest street house to her
daughters, but failed to put her signature
to that part of her last will and testament.
Not much was thought of that by Hartford
people, however, as it was thought her son
would respect her wishes, signature or no
signature.
When the estate came to be inventoried
it was found that with stocks and bonds
and all, there was not enough in the daugh-
tiers share to support them comfortably or
to enable them to keep the old home for
many years. 1t is now learned that their
brother has notified them that he is about
to sell the house and provide a home for
them in Simsbury. Most of the valuable
and famous relics in the house were be-
queathed to Isabelle Beecher Hooker, Mrs
Stoves step-sister, who lived near by
The people who have heard of the propos-
ed sale of the house are greatly agitated
1t has been suggested that the money which
was to be raised for statue for Mrs. Stowe
be devoted to the purchase of the house
for the daughters. The residence is in the
same block with that of Mr.. Samuel
Clemens Mark Twain) who lived there for
many years.

American Standard OF Living.

The more thoroughly industrial and
social phenomena are investigated, the
more clearly it is coming to be seen that
the one great factor in determining wage
| rates everywhere is the standard Of living
of the wage receivers themselves. No
other theory is able to account satisfacto-
rily for the wide variation of wages paid to
| laborers in different countries or in diff
ferent groups in the same country, or to
city, as compared with country laborers,
or to men as compared with women. No
| other theory furnishes scientific expan-
alton of the changes in rates that have
taken place since the beginning of the wage
system, or of the steady rise in wages
which has characterized the industrial
| history of the present century. No other
| theory of wages carries with it the posi-
| bility of logical and at the same time tan
| gible and practical efforts being put forth
| for the improvement of social conditions by
| increasing the material we'll being of the
| laboring classes. If wage rates depend ulti-
mately upon the consuming powers, the
standard of living, of the different groups
of working people, then we are at once en-
abled to deal intelligently with the situa-
ton by setting in motion forces whose
tendency will be to elevate that standard,
and thus force wage workers to unite and
struggle for increased incomes sufficient
to meet their growing needs. 1t is this
pressure of demand, this expansion of
human desires and necessities, which
has lain at the bottom of all the
betterments and economics in indus
trial methods, and all the result
ing increases in wealth production
methods, it is true, have made possible
the payment of rapidly increasing rates of
wages, but capitalistic methods them
selves depend for their existence and sue
cess wholly upon the consuming power Of
the community, which in turn rests main
ly upon the standard of living Of the great
laboring class. [Gunton's Magazine.
