8TOOK YARDS, CHIOAOO, ILU B. MARTIN, North Side Sqaare Judge Wm. H. Edwards of Mitchell was here last week trying the case of the State vs. Buakirk for shooting Douglass atStinesville, on Christmas eve. He also bad some civil cases under his jurisdic tion. He has a son in college, tseorge JUlwards, who will graduate with the present Senior class. It will be remembered that when Elzie Easton's brains were blown out last Christmas eve at Stineaville, by a shot gun in the hands of George Buakirk who kept a saloon in that village, that an associate of Easton's,. James Douglass, ws also shot in 'the arm and side. Buskirk was cleared of the charge of murdering Easlon, upon a plea of self-defense, and the indictment for shooting Douglass stood on the docket for trial. Tbe case came up last week, and Douglass, who ia bow in jail on a charge of burglary committed in Martinaville, was brought here to testify. The case of burglary against Douglass is clear, 'tis said, and he eat in his chair, and in answer to the questions of the prosecuting attor ney professed eutire ignorance of tbe whole transaction didn't know he'd been shot ; didn't know when the shooting occurred in fact knew nothing whatever1. He had stated privately to an acquaintance that "ibey couldn't make him tell anything, and he didn't intend to.'' The jury wrestled with the case Thursday night and brought in a verdict against Buskirk of $600 fine as a penalty perhaps for not killing the fellow Douglass, Hon. Wm. P. Rogers, by the appointment ot Judge Duncan, occupied the bench during the trial of a number ot criminal cases last week. It is not necessary to say that he was fully equal to the emergency aud that he fulfilled the expectations of bis friends.
