Mccoy Murder Case Next Monday.

Next Monday morning when the
hearings of jury cases begin again in
the first division of the district court,
the first case for trial is a murder
case. James Mccoy, colored, will be
tried for the murder of Clarence sgd
nor, also colored, in a pool hall at
4O4 Kansas avenue. Following the one
criminal trial, the court will begin
hearing jury civil cases.
1t is regarded not likely that the
murder case of W. l.. Beers, the min
lister who is accused of killing his
wife by forcing her false teeth down
her throat, in which jury failed to
agree last term. will be tried again at
the present term of the court. 1t
probably will go over until the Sep
TENDER term for trial.
