less damage from the wind, is more chcaply

CoNEENEs CoNsIABLE MURDER.

1t seems after all that there is much
truth in the old saying murder will out"
and the unravelling of the mystery sur
rounding the Identification of the assail-
ant of the late Albert Constable is
another proofthat he who sheds innocent
blood will finally be brought to justice.
At last the man has implicated himself, but
not until two shrewd Baltimore detec-
tives, Dougherty and Weaver, worked
up such a case against him that convict
John NJ. Shippers told the whole story to
Warden Wcyler about dusk on Monday
evening. The self accused murderer had
been at i'll ease ever Stree last Saturday
when he was identified by additional
witnesses as beiaS in the vicinity of the
tragedy on the evening of the murder.
He sent for the Warden and told him
that he had something to tell him. Mr..
Weyler warned him that anything he
said would be used against him.
Tits no use trying to hide it any longer

An interesting talk was given by Prof. II
7. Patterson director of the Maryland EN.
pertinent Station. He spoke more particu-
Iarly about the cultivation OF corn, and gave
an interesting account of the work of the
College during the past year. In the absence
of Mr.. A. d. Shamel, Mr.. Patterson spoke at
length OF the good work that is now bring
done in increasing the corn crop of Illinois.
The experiment station of this State has
been raising corn year after year on the same
ground since SIS. The yield has gradually
deceased from 60 bushels down to %. The
yield varies with the season, but is less than
half of that of rotated fields This proves the
faIlacy OF a continuous cropping of the same
field. One of the easiest ways of getting the
soil in good condition for corn is planting
COW peas, SOY y-beans clover and alfalfa. The
first two are especially beneficial TO the SOIL
valuable as food, and will grow under almost
any conditions. In a single year, they have
been found to increase the yield of corn from
to s bushels per acre. The food is as good
as red clover hay and will grow when it is
impossible to get good clover stand. The
best way is to drill COW peas and soy-bears
after the last cultivation of corn. These
crops will produce from one TO two and
half tons per acre and increase the fertility Of
the soil. Cover crops rotated with corn.
and the crops taken from the field, will event
uaily exhaust the land. Leguminous crops.
such as peas, beans, clover, etc, draw their
supply of nitrogen from the air, which goes
to enrich the soil, but they do not add pot
ash and phosphorus.
I'VE have the entire article on corn breed
ing, which has recently been prepared by Mr.
Shamel, and from time to time, as space per
mits, will publish extracts from the
same.-Ep.l

Albert Constable, Jr. He said that Mr..
Constable was very close to him coming
up a hill when the thought occurred to
rob him. He was in need of money as he
had been gambling. The convict said
that he did not intend to kill Mr.. Con
stable or even shoot him. The first shot
went in a different direction; the second
shot in the air and the third was fired
close to scare him, not intending to kill
him. "He asked if | wanted money and
| said Yes He told me he had only
quarter and threw it to me. | told him
to throw his watch along with it and he
did; then he commenced to groan and
asked him where he was shot and he
said he thought in the head He asked
me to tell the colored people up the road
that he was wounded and / stopped and
halloaed to some one in yard that there
was a sick man down the road" SIM
pers went to Philadelphia the next day
and pawned the watch for $40.
Shippers was run down in a most re-
markable manner by the two detectives,
who at first started on very slight clues
which they followed with unrelenting
vigor After the aCquittal of the negro
Holland the Cecil county authorities al
most gave up hope Of catching the guilty |
party, and when Shippers was first accused
they seemed inclined to discredit the |
theory of his guilt. This however did not
stop the detectives who kept on until
finally the watch was discovered. This |
together with other damaging evidence
would have been brought against the
accused man before the next grand jury. |
Still there might have been some doubt |
but his confession sets every ones mind |
at rest
He will be indicted by the March grand |
jury, and although he has plead guilty, |
will be compelled to stand trial as this
plea is never taken in capital cases. He
will doubtless be convicted at once and |
an early sentence of death imposed upon |
him.
The murder of the late Albert Consta-
bic was one of the foulest ever commit !
ed. Itwas entirely without provocation,
the only motive being robbery. He was
known not to have an enemy in the
world, and all of his magnificent legal
talent was always at the command of
the poor and weak. 1t is said that he
would not foreclose a mortgage or dis
trcss anyone in the collection of a claim.
He had fine instincts and possessed great
ability, especially in the trial of cases.
His practice extended all over this state,
also Delaware and Pennsylvania. Mr.,
Constable spent his early life in Bel Air
and had many warm friends. All will be
glad to know that his murderer has been
found and will be brought to justice.
