OF WILLIAMS MURDER
LIFE SENTENCE ONLY IMPOSED
on MURDERERS.
Judge Told MurdererS They We're
Lucky to Escape With Their
Lives.

Lexington, Nov. 30.-Four former
employees of the Hagenbe nbeck-Wallace
circus were sentenced to life impris-
enment today for numbering Paul A
Williams, of Columbia, on the morn
ing of October 2, while he was riding
ON the circus train. George Nichols,
a white man, Elijah Clark, Garland
Browc and John Wilson, three ne
groes, are the convicted men.
Nichols and Clark we're tried and
found guilty of murder with recon-
mendation to the mercy Of the court.
Judge Gage directed that the same
verdict be found in the case against
Brown and Wilson, who pleaded guilty
and threw themselves on the mercy
Of the court.
The evidence which was offered to-
day during the trial of Nichols and
Clark is best described by the words
of Judge Gage, who said, in imposing
sentence on the four prisoners: II
have never heard in any court house
proof of more revolving murder than
that which you have been found guilty
Of committing"
The defendants did not go on the
stand.
What Caused Death?
According to DR.. S. J. Derrick, the
physician at the coroner's inquest over
young Williams body, the immediate
cause Of death was strangulation,
while the direct cause was the bullet
wound through the right eye, which
pierced the brain. Was Paul Williams
strnagled before or after he was shot?
This is one Of the questions upon
which the trial of Clark and Nichols
failed to shed any light, DR.. Derrick
testified that he had known cases
where person, although shot through
the brain, has lived for "a or even 4S

may never be known. DR.. Derrick was
positive, from the congested condition
of the lungs and the blood vessels
leading to them, that strangulation
was the Immediate cause Of death.
The evidence conficted somewhat
rs to which of the four convicted men
shot Paul Williams. The witnesses
agreed that three Of item, Brown,
Wilson and Clark, the neeooes. hau
pistols. Three eye-witnesses, all cir
Gus employees, laid the guilt on John
Wilson. He placed it on Brown. One
witness said that two shots we're fired.
The pistol bullet which pierced Paul
Williams brain was .32 calibre.

Tary. Shortly after at another meet
ing of The joint council it was decided
to buy a lot and permanently locate
the parsonage in the town Of New
berry. A finance and building COM
mittee was appointed at this meeting
who went to work with a vim and
purchased a lot in the northeastern
part Of the city, and shortly after lei
the contract to Mr.. Irby D. Shockley
to build the house, and to show that
there was no delay in the entire move
ment our pastor moved into his new
home just week before synod met.
But l didn't intend to give history
Of the work, but want to say some
r thing more about the meeting at the
parsonage on Thanksgiving day. The
meeting wasn't intended to be what is
called a pounding of the pastor, but
simply social gathering of the mem
bership Of the pastorate. A table was
prepared in the back yard and at
about 1890 all the baskets were call
ed for.
The good ladies (and the count
enances of their faces showed that
they were good ladies), and after the
contents Of their baskets we're piled
upon the table it proved indeed that
they we're good ladies, brought such
a stack of palatable food that as it
lay upon that table it was just enough
to make a hungry man groan.
BY invitation Rev. J. D. shea1y was
present and was asked to return
thanks
After the blessing all those present
enjoyed themselves to their content.
After the dinner was over there was
almost enough left to have fed the
same crowd again.
Before the crowd dispersed from
around the table Rev. Mr.. Shesly was
invited to make a talk. He responded
and his speech was very fitting and
appropriate to the occasion. He paid
the highest compliments to the new
charge, saying the beautiful house
that they had erected for their pastor
would stand as living monument to
them.
After the close of Rev. Mr.. shealy's
speech a committee of three was ap-
pointed by one Of the council to take
up a. collection to substitute fund
which already was on hand to put in
electric lights in the parsonage. Those
present responded very literally and
the sufficient amount was about Sc
cured.
The lights will be put in this week.
Rev. Mr.. Kinard made some express
sions. of gratitude and appreciations
to the members for their hospitality
and presence.
The. day was heartily enjoyed and
long to be remembered by all present.

Too much encouragement and sup
port cannot be given to the fourth
annual picnic of the Calumet and
Hecla miners to be held tomorrow.
The experienced men, whose labors
have helped to great degree to keep
the Calumet and Hecla company in
the front rank of the copper mining
companies of the world, have con-
tributed largely to the welfare of this
community and they are entitled to a
day of rest and of pleasure. The
charitable motives which prompt the
men to distribute the monetary pro-
ceeds of the picnic among the widows
and orphans and incapacitated min
ers are also worthy of consideration.
In no mining camp in the world can
a more liberal, whole souled group of
men be found. Because of training
and constant contact, they fear not
the perils attached to their voca-
ton, but their first thought are of
those whom misfortune has overtaken.

Governor Carroll of Iowa proposes
to add 100000 bushels Of corn to the
annual crop Of his state simply by lop-
ping OFF ten feet on each side of the
average country road.
Governor Carroll believes that a road
forty feet wide is just as good as a
road sixty feet wide; that it would
serve every purpose, and could be
more easily and cheaply kept in re-
pair. Besides, releasing the superhu-
Gus 20 feet in each road would add
immensely to the states products. He
figures it, in the case of Iowa at s4,-
10000 a year or SO for every man.

The governor outlined his plan re-
Gently before a convention of the Iowa
Implement Dealers association. The
average country road he pointed out,
is sixty feet wide, whereas forty feet

die and sides OF the road grow up in
weeds and make unsightly highways,
besides becoming a breeding ground
for weeds which scattr seeds through
adjacent fields.
There are 10000 miles of country
roads in Iowa. This equals sOO,OOO
acres Of land. Governor Carrolrs
plan would result in cutting off 266,
667 acres and restoring them to the
wheat and corn fields. Assuming 800

land-hundreds of farms are sold at
$3.50 TO 5000 an acre-the land thus
restored to farming would be worth
