Current Events Glass Friday afternoon
was the Macrum question, followed by
that of the Nicaragua Canal An in
teresting account of the funeral of
Maj. Gen. Lawton was next given, and
the reading of a very beautiful letter
from a friend in Washington who wit
messed the ceremony gave a graphic
touch to the subject. The poem by
Jas. Whltcomb Riley, written when
General Lawton's body was lying in
state in Indianapolis, was also read.
In connection with the South Afrl-
can news, Miss Golfer gave good
sketch of Cecil Rhodes; and also chose
as an appropriate book to review
THE Colossus" of which Mr.. Rhodes
is the hero.
The artist and illustrator, j. W.
Alexander was we'll portrayed; and a
high tribute paid to Miss Cecilia
Beaux, the foremost woman portrait
painter in America, who won a gold
medal and $1,000 at the recent art ex-
hlbition in Pittsburg.
After giving interesting criticisms
Of "Aylwin" and the new drama, "Pao-
10 and Francesca" Miss Golfer closed
with an admirable paper on Mark
Twain, which greatly interested her
audience and wen heir applause at
the close.

To Suppress Carrying Of Con
cealed WEAPONS.

The number OF cases that have
come up in Comon Pleas Court as the
result OF the carrying of concealed
weapons has led Judge Jones to take
measures for the suppression of this
unnecessary habit that is so often
farught with evil consequences.
AT the conclusion of the Lucas
trial yesterday JudgeJones instructed
the Prosecuting Attorney to make ey-
cry effort possible toward returning
indictments against persons who prac-
tlce this offense against the law.
A word to the wise Is sufficient and
those who are in the habit of carrying
pistols or dangerous knives will do
well to remember the Courts instruc-
tions. 1t is quite probable that per-
sons found guilty of carrying weapons
will not be treated very mercifully by
Judge Jones, who is intent on the SUI
preston of crime in the county and
who looks upon this habit as one of the
causes of some of the more serious
offenses.

ACQUITT TED.
Jury Returns a Verdict Of Not Gull
ty in the Jesse Lucas Case.

Jesse Lucas. whose trial has occupied
the greater part of the time In Com
mon Pleas Court this week, was dis
charged yesterday morning upon the
jury's returning verdict of acqulttal.
He was indicted at the January term
for murder in the second degree.
Lucas is a young colored man who
resided with his parents at Big Run,
in the West End of the county until
last October, when the trouble occur
red that brought him to public notice.
On the evening of Saturday, octo-
Der IA, last year, Lucas was at the
home of Bob Cunningham, west of
Cutler, in company with vinton Male.
Both boys wer infatuated with one of
Cunningham girls and according to
Lucas story Male grew angry and at
tackled him because he seemed to be
receiving most of her smiles. From
the testimony in court, it seems that
Male attacked Lucas, who drew his
pocket knife and stabbed his assal-
liant, who died about half an hour af-
terward. Lucas went home and was
arrested Sunday morning by Constable
Henry, of Cutler. He had a hearing
before Squire Simpson who bound him
over to court. He has since been con-
fined in the county Jail. His trial at
tracted a large number of people from
that section of the county to the city
and considerable interst was centered
in the result of the trial. The argu-
ments of the attorneys occupied about
seven hours and the jury was out two
hours.
Lucas left with his father yesterday
afternoon for his home.
