the evidence did not warrant a finding
of guilty. Self defense, he said, was
the oldest law of man's being, and a
law that hod been recognized for all
,'tinie as a right one. He also argued
'with fervid eloquence to the jury the
.'importance of giving the prisoner the
benefit of every reasonable doubt.
After Mr. Cotter's speech court ad
journed until 2 o'clock.
SATURDAY AFTKRNOON.
Court opened at 2 o'clock, when Mr;
Richmond submitted additionul
points to the court.which were argued
upon by Messrs. Richmond and Jeuks
for their respective sides.
Mr. Richmond then went to the
Jury.and talked for an hour and forty
live minutes. It Is idle for us to at
tempt even a synopsis of this great
effort, made by this gentleman in be
half of the prisoner at the bar. He
denied the charge made by Mr. H ill
as to the cheap auxiliaries thrown
around the prisoner to create sym
pathy. And stated that if either si de
was guilty of doing that kind of busi
ness the prosecution were, else why
these widow's weeds and garbs of woe.
referring to the widows, of Warnith
and Vullrcier who wore in the court
room. Reviewing- the testimony he
treated Durke and W'uizull with tin
tinted Irony, and canst io torrent of
words, accusing them of perjury, gaud
intimating that their testimony win of
little value lu determining the ease.
He pictured Dist. AU'y Wurnell as
cowering in fright behind the friendly
cover of a convenient hen eo.p, tlio
very personification of fear and cow
ardice. He congratulated Elk county
on the possession of two such worthy
officials. Jn closing he appealed to the
jury for mcr y and for justice. 'The
speech was patiently listened to by a
crowded court room, and was acknowl
edged on all hands to be a masterly
argument and an eloquent plea, fully
worthy of the man aiicHho occasion.
Mr. Jen ks, for the prosecution, spoke
from 4:10 until 5: -30. It was easily
seen that this gentleman was on the
wrong side of the case, for Instead of
his usual eloquence, he confined him
self to the facts brought out by the
evidence, and to offsetting, by ingen
ious argument, the burning eloquence
of Mr. Richmond.
Court then adjourned until 7:30
The conclusion was given in our last
Issue. We have only one thing to add
that is that all the law points sub
mitted to the court by the counsel for
the defense, were nlllnued by the
court. Kn

Death of a Brakeman.
John McCarthy, was accidentally
killed near the Ridgway station yes
terday motnlng, Wednesday, Oct. 0,
18.80. He was engaged setting a brake
on a car ac the local freight was about
stopped at the station. Missing ills
footing he Ml between the cars and
on the track the forward wheels of
one car passed over him at about tlie
middle of the body, breaking his back
and causing almost instant deatlu
Th hotly was not severed, a broad red
mark the width of tlie wheel across
his body told tho tale of his misery.
Witnesses to the terrible accident, say
that lie hung on for a distance of six
feet, vainly endeavoring to free- him
self from his desperate position. The
man has been a brakeman on local
freight about six yeal's, Is a resident of
St. Marys, where n wife and three
children await his coming evermore,
ilo was a man of good habits, indus
trious and faithful, and well liked by
all who knew him. His age is about
:4 or 35 years. Viewing the remains
of tlie quiet sleeper a feeling of oppres
siveness filled our iniud , as we InviJ
untary turned in though to that sor
rowing wife, and now fatherless little
ones, who parted but a few hours be
fore in life and happiness beneath the
skies of this glorious October morning
little dreaming that those kisses would
be the last forever and aye. Sympathy
and pity for the broken-hearted widow
who must now battle with the world
alone, without the support of that
strong arm now palsied in death, and
the comfort of that warm heart, now
stilled and cold, Pity for the little
ones wiio miss a father's kiss, audit
father's love. This is indeed, a sad
case, and although illustrating the un
certainty of human lite, yet we wish
that such scenes might not be.

hair is thickened, und baldness often
though not always cured. It cheeks falling
of the hair immediately, anil causes a new
growth in all cases where the glands aro
not decayed; while to brnsliy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
aud strength, ami renders it pliable.
The Virion cle.inses the scalp, cures nut
prevents the fennatiou of dandruff; and,
by its cooling, iliimilnting, and soothing
properties, it heals most if not all of tho
humors aud Uiee.'iscs peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of tho scalp und
hair aro hupouiblo.

less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will
not soil whilo cambric. It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as au
