The Trial Of Shaughnessy

The murder trial of James J.
Shaughnessy will probably be
brought to an end and given to the
jury tonight The defense conclud-
ed its testimony in chief yesterday
and this forenoon the State introduce
ed several witnesses in rebuttal The
evidence of Drs. Samuels, Ascher and
Giroux, bearing upon the question of
whether or not Shaughnessy was in
sane at the time he committed the
murder, is very important in the case.
The expert testimony of the physi-
clans and the long hypothetical ques-
tons of the attorneys were of little
interest and there were few persons
present in the courtroom this fore
noon besides those concerned in the
case.
The taking of the testimony was
concluded at noon and a recess taken
until Z o'clock this evening At that
time the case will be argued and sub
mitted to the jury.-Silver State.

EN0LAHD's 100000 EYES

BY the way John Bull is snug
Cling up to Brother Jonathan our
English cousin must be fearful
that the American congress is
about to give him the .'h'awful
stare, doncher know" in the
Transvaal matter. For some
time the dispatches and the daily
press have heen full of tommy rot
about blood being thicker than
water, the destiny of the English
speaking races, the merging of
England and America into one
great republic. and the union
jack and stars and stripes floating
mast hight fIom the same pole.
Now comes a narrowing tale of
how England would uot agree to
Intervention during our late war
with Spain, the occasion when
England put her foot down and
saved America until one would
think we owed her debt of graf
itude which would require the rest
of eternity to pay. Does Eng
land or any one else think that
America cared a continental darn
whether she or the whole world
interviewed, or tried to, after the
Maine was blown up? If they had
tried any little Intervention
scheme, it would only have given
