70. Dorchester County, this morning
Edward Jones, of Worcester County
was placed upon trial for taking the
life of Lawrence Smack in Worcester
County on September II last
Inside the rail of the crowded court
room, to one side, was the l7-year-old
Sallie Jones, daughter of the prisoner
and the cause of all the misery. In
the far corner was Sallie'S cousin,
Mrs. Smack, the widowed mother %
Smack's child. Behind the accused
sat the faithful wife of Jones, while
here and there was one of the seven
Jones children, within sound of their
fathers voice, yet removed as far as
the law could separate them.
All this agony because the dead
man. it is alleged, persisted in pay
ing improper attentions to Sallie
Jones. Her father, the prisoner,
warned him, il is alleged, that he must
cease. but without avail, until the
morning of September u. Sallie had
not returned at reasonable hour the
night before and the father met
the alleged cause of his trouble and
emptied his revolver into him, kill
ing him almost instantly.
When the stage was set for select
ing a jury and taking testimony to-
day, there was gathered about the

Assailing the Republican national
Administration, which he termed a
failure, Mr.. Cox attributed present
day business adversely to the fail
IRE of this country to enter tho

an outlaw hermit among the nations
One defeat does not mean loss of a
cause. he said, and declared his inten-
tion of keeping up the fight for the
league through the next campaign.

there were more than 1000 enthusias-

there was little doubt that Mr.. Cox

There was a big reception for Mr..

read by Mrs. Montgomery Hare. called
forth a tremendous demonstration.

we foregather tonight as disciples of

No great cause was ever won In single
battle. Our principles are right. and
they must and will prevail"

being that the ex-President evidently

There is no attempt made to meet

system tempts aviators to approach a
