Davis, who clerk* for Colonel B. H. Robinson, which finally resulted in Davis shooting Jones. All agree that Jones was th. agressor and was approaching Davis with an open knife in his hand. He was warned not to ap proach on Davis, but he paid no attention to the warning until Davis fired two shots in the air, which stopped him for a minute. He remarked to Davis that he (Davis) was a very poor shot, and again commenced to close in on Davis, who look better aim and fired, the ball entering his breast. Jones advasced a step or so for ward and fell to tbe ground and expired. The coroner’s jury br.ught in a verdict of justifiable homicide. SCHULER COLEAX HE AII.

Mankato, January 13-.Ex-Vice- President Schuyler Colfax dropped ■lead at 10:35 this afternoon at the Omaha depot in this city. He ar rived on the Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad from the East at 10 a. m., and walked to the Omn.a depot, a distance of three-fourths of a mile, with tbe thermometer 30 degrees below zero. After arriving at the depot, he lived about five minutes. It is supposed that tbe extreme cold, the subsequent heat and over exertion caused a stop page of the flow of blood to the heart. The remains were taken in charge by tbe Odd Fellows, and now lie in state at Dr. Harrington’s residence. Word has been sent the family o( tbe doceased, and the President has also been notified, and orders are now awaited. Tbe Kimple Truth ef History. Hour. Gen.
