THE w1LCox-CROPsEY CASE.

The trial of James Wilcox (for the
murder of Nellie Cropsey last No
vember,) which had been in progress
in Elizabeth City several days, ended
Saturday night with the verdict,
equity of murder in the first de.
gree" Wilcox's lawyers appealed.
This verdict is a surprise TO most
people. The prosecuting lawyers
themselves had expected a verdict of
guilty of murder, but only in the
second degree. The evidence against
Wilcox was entirely circumstantial.
Deep interest was felt in the case
throughout the State, owing to the
mystery with which the death of
Miss Cropsey was enshrouded. For
weeks last fall readers of the daily
papers followed with eagerness
the story of the search for the young
woman. Was she dead or alive?
Finally her body was found, floating
in the water near her fathers house.
Then came the question, Was it muir
der or suicide? Investigation seemed
to indicate that she was not drowned,
but received a fatal blow before her
body was thrown in the water. A
lovers quarrel, the prosecution
claims, and the jealousy of Wilcox,
caused him to murder her. He may
be guilty, but the thought of taking
a human life with only incomplete
circumstantial evidence TO support
the charge of crime, makes us
shudder.
Our readers will bear witness to
the fact that we do not often men.

Breeding Cavalry Horses.

DIR. Leonard Pearson. the state veter-
marian aud dean " the veterinary
school OF the University OF Pennsylvan-
Ia. In his report from the Committee on
Animal Husbandry to the annual meet
Ing of the Pennsylvania State veterin-
ary society. spoke very favornbly OF the
hill pending before Congress which pro-
poses system OF breeding horses for
cavalry under government inspection,
the hope being that this would lead to a
more general scientific breeding OF
horses. The bill proposes govern
ment inspection and certificate for stall
lions favorable for the breeding Of cav
airy horses. In this way II Is hoped to
educate the general public up. to the i'm
portance OF the subject. In foreign
countries II is found that this course
has rapidly increased the value OF the
horse stock OF the nation. DIR. Pearson
intimated that II this method were
adopted, mere horses" would no long
er be found In the markets. but horses
bred and specially fitted for a purpose.
The matter was referred to committee
with a suggestion that they favor the
bin In its broadest scope.
