Of oyer and terminer yesterday John
Kennedy was sentenced to IS years In
the Eastern penitentiary, and John
DAILY and Albert Kelly to II years each
in the same institution for the murder
Of Thomas Ashworth on July last.
Ashworth was kicked to death by
gang Of toughs, which included Ken
nedy. DAILY and Kelly. Robbery is al
legged to have been the motive, as the
dead mans watch was subsequently
found In Kellys possession. DAILY and
Kelly pleaded guilty to murder in the
second degree, but Kennedy pleaded
not guilty, and was condemned to the
gallows. He was given a new trial,
and on advice Of counsel made the
same plea as his companions had en-
tered, and thereby saved his life.

1t was the habit of John B. Cough for
40 years to carry two overcoats on his
lecture tours. After his lectures he put
both Of them on, the first, a light
one, which he buttoned up tight, and
then the second. very heavy one,
sort of combination of heavy ulster and
the regulation overcoat.
His two hour lecture was an unbroken
succession Of contortions and antics that
left him dripping in perspiration. 1t re-
Guired all this covering to protect his
body from the air before he changed his
wet clothing for dry.
On his return to his hotel, Mrs. Cough
was always In waiting with fresh cloth
Ing. A valet at once set to work rubbing
him down, exactly as Is the custom Of
grooming race horse at the end of the
heat. After this process he appeared
apparently as fresh as ever. He would

wanted an old fashioned bowl.

lon, but did not attend the lectures.

Mine Horror Due to Negligence,

Uniontown, Pa, Jan. 6.--The coro-

after three hours deliberation last
evening rendered the following ver-
dict: I'VE find from the evidence that
the mine foreman of said mine was
negligent in failing to see that the
mine was in a safe condition before
permitting workmen to enter it. We
also believe that the fire boss of said
mine was negligent in failing to make
daily verbal report to the mine fore
man. and we believe both the mine
and fire boss to be incompetent to per-
form their respective duties" There
has been no action taken as yet to-
ward prosecuting the incriminated Of
