Glendive, Mont, Oct 3-After being
out since p. m. last night the jury in
the Kinahan case this morning returned
a verdict Of guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree, recommending that the ex-
IRENE penalty of the law, which is life
imprisonment, be imposed.
i The verdict was evidently a relief to the
prisoner as hardly anyone present
doubted that the jury would return a YER
dict Of guilty in the first degree, which
would have been equivalent to a. death
sentence. On the first ballot Of the jury
the vote is said to have been eleven for
|guilty in the first degree and one for ac-
Equittal. Consequently the verdict was in
the nature of a compromise.

FORMAN, N. DIT is believed that
Hayes Lewis, the young Kentuckian who
shot Charles Christman, will be acquitted
OF murder on the ground that he was de-
Tending his life.
The jealousy Of Christman against
Lewis had become so Influenced by the
letter which the latter wrote the young
woman In the case, that he determined
either to kill or drive Lewis and his
brother out Of the country. For several
days Christman had prosecuted Hayes
Lewis In brutal fashion, and had enlisted
the aid Of his pal known as "Slim" to
wreck summary vengeance. Slim seized
the younger Lewis and held him while
Christman used a heavy club on his vic
tins head producing partial concussion
of the brain.
Hayes Lewis came up and asked Christ
man and his pal to desist. Christman then
brandished his club over Hayes Lewis.
The latter backed up against a barn,
where he was struck once by his assail-
ant. Believing that his life was in dam
ger, he drew his revolver and shot Christ
man.
Since the deed was done, one Of the
threshermen with whom the principals in
the trouble had been working, has said
that the elder Lewis was justified in shoot
ing Christman Mr.. Coleman. for whom

! Des Moines, Iowa, Oct. 3.-A telegram
has been received announcing the death
in Little Rock, ARR, of Jessie Cherry, one
of the famous Cherry Sisters quartet, who
sprang into notoriety twelve years ago
because of the nature of the concert enter
tainments which they gave. The four sis
tiers, reduced to poverty and with a heavy
mortgage on their farm, started to tour
the country. Their work was sunconven-
popular chord and they were invited to
New York by a vaudeville manager. -
The siging Of the Cherry sisters was SO
bad that it was worth hearing and for
three or four years the girls were the rage
in the west as a novelty in the way of
stage performances. They had many in
teresting experiences, not the least of
which, was the appearance Of Miss Effie
upon the stage of the Grand operahouse in
Des Moines with a shotgun in her arms
prepared to intimidate any one in the au-
dience inclined to throw fresh vegetables
at the stage.

that depositors will be disappointed in the
outcome. If total payment to creditors
Of this bankrupt reaches more than 20
per cent to rs per cent Of the total claims
it will be surprise to those that have
looked into the matter. /
Appraisers appointed to pass on the

PACE TOO FAST FOR WERNER
Sued an Editor Altho Rival Paper Was
Taking His Stuff.

Taking His Stuff.
GARNER. IowA-The case Of William
Werner, VS.. E. N. Bailey & Son, pub
fishers of the Britt Tribune, is on
trial In district court. The action IS for
libel for $4,000 actual and $4,000 exen-
plary damages are asked.
The suit grows out of the publication
of a series Of articles in the Britt Trib-
une concerning fireworks at the celebra-
ton, of the Fourth of July in Britt. in
1902. It is alleged by the defendant that
there is more or less Of politics in the
suit, and it is also pleaded as defense
that Bailey was justified in whole or In
part because Of the publication Of certain
articles In the Britt News, rival paper,
over the signature Of the plaintiff, Will
liam Werner.
Bailey started the ball rolling by an
nouncing that the fireworks was AZ
zle. After an interchange Of pleasantries
Werner printed a signed article in the
News In which he called Bailey a
king Of dubs,'' "big tub Of wind" etc.
He also designated Bailey's paper as a
smut mill "
Bailey made reply by printing several
items which the plaintiff alleges as libel
GUS and which continued for several
weeks. Among others was a serial story
on "Jackasses," which was continued
from week to week in the Tribune.
Other items intimated that Werner had
received rake off on purchasing the
fireworks and that the lot which cost the
town about $50 was in reality worth only
from SIS to $40. - ~n
