The newspapers have begun the an

cording to some it would lie a safe precau
tion lo carry a tea kettle, so as to be able
to start a lire and tmil the water before
taking a drink. The effect seems to be to
make the use uf water unpopular, vxceiit
when boiled into a thoroughly disagree
able condition. It is doubtful whether
three-fourths of the advisers of such a
course ever drink water when tin y could
get beer. There may be something in the
theory of the improved heali hful;u-s of
water when boiled, but the scar- given to
people by making them afraid of a glass of
water, or a green apple, or a w atcrinelon.
is liable to do more injury to their nervous
-y-tem than can he done by eat ing and
drinking every thing that comes along, like
our ancestors did. It U not safe to say
that drinking bacteria cooked, with a con
stant fear and trembling lest some might
not In- well do, is any healthier than eat
ing them raw , in ignorance of their e
isianceor oulidence in their digestibility.

MURDER IN THE SECOND DEGREE.

Tl lAIIlT EVK.MX;.
The Mcllvoy murder case from Tunnel
hill borough was taken up in court on
Tuesday morning and occupied the atten
tion of the court all day.
The jury was impaneled with little diffi
culty. Out of twenty-live men called, the
following were selected: Paul Prmgle,
Fiank Stophel, John S. Davis, Tobias
Moody. Samuel Arthurs. Harry L. Horn
er, O. C. Hansom. Jacob Miller,
George C. Diehl. John Fritz, John
Rineoolt and Matthew Copelin.
Patrick ISoylen was the first witness
called and testified as follows: "I was
home during the afternoon of Saturday,
August is, 1S'.4. lietween the hours of 3
and 1 o'clock I heard two shots tired, fol
lowed in a few seconds by a third. After
a short period of quiet I heard a fourth
shot. I went out on the street and met
James Mcllvoy, who told me they had a
fuss at his brother's home. I went over
to his brother's and found Tillie Mcllvoy
on the lauding of the staiis. I'.lood was
oolng from a bullet wound in her neck.
She breathed her hist while I was there."
Other witnesses told substantially the
same story.
The defense claimed that James Mcll
voy. the murderer, was 'trunk that day
and had gone to bed. When lie awoke he
drew his revolver and tired into the ceil
ing. His wife asked Joe. his brother, to
take the revolver from him, and. in the
sen tile that ensued, it vvas discharged and
the bullet found lodgment in the woman's
neck. Several witnesses supported this
claim.
The jury, after lieing about two hours,
found a verdict a.-quittiiig Joseph Mcllvoy
and finding James Mcllvoy gui'ly of mur
der in the second degree.
The latti-r was much dejected at the re
sult of the trial, and while on his way back
to the jail, rema.'ked to the otlh-er that his
conviction was "a d d shame."
