Daily Short Story
OF THE g
Brunswick News.
9ke 'Case at 'Cane Mil
[Copyright. 1902. by C. B. Lewis.]
One day a stranger arrived at Cane
Hill. He said he was Charles Willi;;ms
and had $13,000 with which to start a
•bank. Soon after a dead body was
found and identified as that of \Yil
Hams.
John Carnes was arrested for the
murder. He couldn’t explain bis
whereabouts ou the evening previous
for a good reason, lie was robbing a
house. Another man suspected of be
ing an ex-eouvJet, Joel Fisher, was ar
rested, who also could not give bis
whereabouts on that evening because
he was robbing a freight car. it was
believed that he and Carnes were part
ners in the crime.
Still another man was arrested, a
single man who kept house for himself.
While no money was found, it was ar
gued that he had buried tlie sum se
cured from Williams, and for three
days more than 100" people were ran
sacking his house and barn and every
foot of his land In hopes to unearth
the treasure.
The name of die third party arrested
was Black. Ho employed me to defend
him. My first idea naturally was to
prove an alibi. He claimed to me that
he had not left Ids house during the
evening. Living alone, we had only his
unsupported word for this, and by ac
cident 1 ascertained that ho was lying
to me. Three different persons had call
ed at his boll so between 7 and 10
o’clock and found him absent. Then
Black made a confession to me. A
farmer with whom he had quarreled
had a large barn on the farm three
miles away, and Black had gone there
to burn it. His intentions were bad
enough, but the fire he kindled went
out, and the barn did not burn. To
clear himself of the one lie must own
up to the other.
As if the case was not complicated
enough, tlio sheriff tool; another step
He worked at the two men first arrest
ed until they “confessed” that Black
planned the whole affair, did the kill
ing and that they only watched to see
that he was not interrupted. The pros
edition now felt assured that it had a
straight ease, while 1 realized that
Black must run the gantlet for Ids
life. The sheriff naturally wanted to
convict Black, and when Carnes and
Fisher were “pressed" they cooked up
a very plausible “confession.’'
I had verified Black's story. I had
gone to the barn and found a candle in
a box just where lie bad told me to
look for it. i lind timed his Journey to
and fro and found it occupied the inter
val stated. I had found mud on his
boots which had come from a spot
near the burn. However, when the
ease was call'd in the higher court l
was appalled at the strength of the evi
dence against my client.
I could only prove one tiling in de
fense previous good character. Black
boldly confessed that lie had intended
to burn the barn and thus accounted
for his time, but it only hurt Iris case.
Everybody jumped to the conclusion
that a man who would commit arson
would not scruple at murder. It was
shown that lie was hard up financially,
that certain men were rattier afraid of
him, that lie had been heard to make
dire threats, and they could not have
painted him blacker had lie been one
of the Younger brothers.
On top of all tlds came the “confes
sion.” Carnes and Fisher had occupied
the same cell for days and therefore
agreed in all 1 lie details. They swore
to meeting Black just outside the vil
lage. They entered the town to look
for Williams and found him on the
street. Fisher swore that lie accosted
him and directed him to the miil race,
telling him that the owner of the mill
wanted to see him. After the murder
all went back to Black's house, where
the money was to be divided. He had
given Carnes and Fisher SSO apiece
and put off the division for a week.
While neither saw the blow struck nor
the body flung into ttie water, both
agreed ns to what Black said on the
way home. He had told them that
Williams .seemed suspicious and was
about to run away when struck down.
I lost my case, of course. Tbe jury
went, out simply for appearance’s sake
and in seven minutes returned with a
verdict of guilty. You may ask what
had been done to trace Williams, Very
little. He had said he was from Chi
cago. No one knew his full address.
The affair had been published in the
Chicago papers, but no one had identi
fied Williams as Williams. He seemed
to have neither relatives nor acquaint
ances.
Black was to be sentenced to death,
and Carnes and Fisher were to get off
with a term in state prison. They had
not yet been sentenced when Williams,
the man who had been murdered and
buried, returned to town as quietly as
afiy other traveler. He left town on the
night of the murder at 9 o’clock, going
to Milwaukee to see about a bank safe
and other things. 110 was taken ill en
route and left the train at a small vil
lage where he had relatives. He had
been sick with fever for weeks, and
nothing whatever was known of the
case.
My case was won by the reappear
ance__of Williams. Itjwas for his mur
THEHBRUN6toIOK DAILY NEWS
dor that Brack uau neon rrrerr. rr-m,
was the victim? That was'iiever found
out, though it was generally believed
that lie was one of a pair of bad men
who had coins' to Cane Hill with some
evil intent and had quarreled with
and been done up by his pal. Carnes
and Fisher at once went back on their
“confession” and accounted for their
time on that evening. This gave them
away on the robberies, and they were
duly tried and landed behind the bars.

Mru, Women anti Hats.
The man who brings out anew hat
almost invariably remarks when some
body with an investigating turn of
mind asks him where lie got it, how
much it cost, etc.: “Oh, I’ve had that
hat for about a month now. It’s far
from being new.”
However, the same hat, when care
fully scrutinized, does not show any
signs of wear and generally looks as
spick and span as when it came from
the packer's box. If you question the
owner's statement as to the time of
his possession, he will usually toll you
that lie lias not worn it, but it has
been around the house for at least
thirty days.
A woman is different. When she
gets anew bonnet, she is anxious to
get it properly placed and get out on
the street. If she meets an acquaint
ance and words of ecstasy and delight
are not forthcoming, she invariably
gets mad.
“Can’t you see my new hat? I just
bought it. Ain’t it sweet? And 1 only
paid $9.99 for it. The milliner told
me she bad held out for $10.50 and re
duced the price for my special ben
efit.”
That’s the reverse in human nature
among the sexes.—Pittsburg Press.
Modern Bachelors.
The bachelor does no longer pat him
self on the hack for remaining single,
as did Caslmir Delavigne, the author
of “Louis XI.”
But neither does the bachelor turn
his coat, as did Caslmir when he got
married on the same day as his broth
or Germain, best known as the collab
orator of Scribe, and in (lie same
church, though, luckily, “not to the
same girl,” as Louis Philippe in his
sudden fright had feared.
The groat and prominent men of (lie
present day who intend to remain free
do not’ inveigh against women like
Goodie and Swift and Musset and, for
the inattyr of that, like Milton. They
simply eschew matrimony, and, what
is mere curious still, society appears
not to wonder at it, and women them
selves are taking tlio abstention as a
matter of course.
Virulent Cancer Cured.
Startling proof of a wonderful ad
vance in medicine is given by druggist
G. VV. Roberts, of Elizabeth. W. Va.
An old man there h-a.l long suffered
with what good doctors pronounced
incurable cancer. They believed liis
case hope lens till he used Electric
Bitters and applied Bucklon’s Arnica
Salve, which treatment completely
cured him. When Electric Bitters are
used to expel bilious, kidney and _nii
crobe poisons at the same time this
salve exerts its matchless healing
power, blood diseases, 'skin eruptions,
ulcers and sores vanish. Bitters 50c„
