The trial Judge In the case of
Oscar Johnson, at Paris, who
killed Walter Rice says Johnson
must pay the penalty and the
date Of his execution has been
set for sometime in August. An
appeal will possibly be taken,
but there is little hope of any re-
lief from that tribunal. Walter
Rice was shot down without any
apparent cause and his slayer de.
serves nothing but the Severest
punishment. Public sentiment

a stock company was formed and a
permanent home for the association
was secured. At that time tract of
forty acres of land was purchased
and fine large buildings were erected.
Since then several additions have been
