TWO BIG MURDER CASES.
Nsphews Of Senator Money and Gov
ernor Vardaman's Wife. on Trial.

eFnor Vardaman's Wife on Trial.
Jackson, Miss. Feb. 2.-Hon. R
n. Miller, of Hazlehurst, passed
through the city en- route to Water
Valley, where he appears as chief
counsel for the defense in the case
OF Jerry Robinson, Jr., charged with
the murder of Smith Murphy, prom
inent delta planter and member of
the Mississippi levee board, which
was commenced in the Yalobusha
county circuit court Friday morning,
having been carried to that tribunal
on change of venue from Tallahatch- =,
te county, where the crime occurred.
Robinson belongs to one of the lead
ing families of the state, and is
nephew of the wife of Governor Var
daman, while his victim was one of
the wealthiest and most highly re-
sepcted citizens in that section of Mis-
sissippi.
Another noted murder trial has been
set for an early hearing. A special
venue has been granted
James D. Money, Jr., nephew of
Senator H, D. Money, and cousin of
Governor Vardaman, goes on trial
Tuesday, Feb. 5, at Greenwood, and
in this case Hon. R. N. Miller will
appear as chief cOunsed for the pros
ecution, having been retained in this
capacity by the family of Moneys vic
tim, Mr.. l.. ]. Henderson, well
known planter of Lefore county
While trouble has been feared at
this trial, it is understood that mem
bers of both families involved have
given pledges to let the law take it's
course and bury the feud that had ex-
listed for several years prior to the
tragedy.

Meyers came here nearly six months
ago with the intention of securing a
divorce from his wife. He still lack
ed one week before he would have
become a citizen of the state, when
his divorce petition would have been
filed. Arrangements had already
been made to have the case tried at
once. Nothing is known here of Mr..

the fact that in his pockets, after
death, was found Standard Oil stock
valued at a million dollars.

Historical Accuracy.

Perish the thought that the novelist
or playwright should be tied down to
historical accuracy! Lady Dorothy
Neville quotes an amusing correspond
ence between Bulwer Lytton and her
brother:
My Dear Walpole-Here I am at Bath
bored to death. l am thinking of writ
ing a play about your great ancestor, Sir
Robert. Had he not a sister Lucy, and
did she not marry a Jacobite?
My brother promptly replied:
My Dear Lytton-I care little for my
family and still less for Sir Robert, but
l know that he never had sister Lucy,
SO she could not have married Jacobite.
However, this mattered little to Lord
Lytton, for his answer ran:
My Dear Walpole-You are too latei Sir
Robert had a sister Lucy, and she did
marry a Jacobite.

Terrible catastrophe Prevented

Davenport, Iowa, Feb. 2.-Pas-
sengers on the Golden State Limited,
the Rock Islands California Flyer,
were saved from being thrown into
the Mississippi river off the high
government bridge here by the fact
that the girders of the bridge were
strong enough to uphold the train,
severeS coaches leaning on the girders
when it came to a stand still. Just
after the engine had passed into the
bridge, the journal of the tender
broke, , throwing it and all the coach
es but the last one from the rails.
The train was behind time and going
at a rate that carried nearly all the
coaches onto the bridge before it was
stopped. Their zig course over
the ties carried them against the sides
of the bridge and only twice the factt
that it is the strongest structure on
the river, prevented terrible catas-
trophe. The passengers were panic
stricken but were quieted when the
train came to a stop.
