.Chicago, IVc. oO.—Tho record of the deliberations of tho Cronin jury from tho time tho twelve "ptMrs" finally retired until tliev returned to .ludjrc McConnoll's court-room with the famous verdict that assigned Coug'hlin. O'Sullivan and Hurko to a livinr death in tho penitentiary is one of the most interesting chapters of the jjreat trial. Tho entire story of the three days' work in the star chamber has never been told, owing to the unwillingness of the jurors themselves to relate the facts and Judge Lunreneekor's advice to stand by the resolution they passed, binding every man to secrecy. Tho Herald, of this city, against which paper Juror Culver has brought suit in the sum of -S'Jo.OOO for libel, has never let up in its effort to solve the mystery of the jury's deliberations, and presents a three-column article which it cli.ims is a complete record. Tho following is a synopsis of tho Herald's article:

The tirst ballot was taken on this question: "Are any of the defendants puilty?" The result stood eleven in the affirmative and one in the negative. Culver was the minority. Several of the jurors talked to tho real-estate man, and after trying to find out just what his position was endeavored to persuade him that a majority of tho defendants were guilty. Culver, however, maintained his position with dogged earnestness and turned a deaf ear to the arguments of his companions. The second ballot was ordered on the question: "Was Dr. Cronin killed in the Carlson cottage?" The result, as before, was eleven to one, the majority voting in the affirmative. Culver did not believe the Stato's theory. There was no more balloting Friday night, but there was plenty of argument and heated debate.

Saturday morning Culver took the position that Burke's identification was by no means complete. In fact, ho claimed Burke was not the man who, under tho name of Frank Williams, rented the Carlson cottage and directed the removal of the furniture from tho Clark street fiat to the cottage. He also claimed the identity of the furniture had not been established.

Several of the jurors held a short consultation in undertones, and at the suggestion of one of their number a sories of resolutions concerning many of Culver's utterances in tho rooms the jury occupied at the Commercial Hotel was written out and tired at lam in rapid succession. these in substance areas follo\TO:8^i|a^r«"fti^^y^Saglji^^pal "Are you preoarcd to statu.'oiv jour oath lis a Juror, that you Jul not come into the jvirvi'ooui

with tho determination to force a disagreement If not how do vou explain the tact that vou snnJ to jurors bolore any testimony hail been taken that you were almost prepared-In advance to discount every thing that the State might dn and disbelieve its testimony that you believed Mrs. Cotiklin to bo an immoral woman that you -s ere prejudiced against ihe State because it had used you brutally and you could not eivn It fair treatment your remark during the urst or second week of ihe trial that the jury would probably stand eleven to one tlmt the jury svstem was brutal and the State would not make any thins by treaiinK you as it had done? AS ill you say that your determination to sue the county for damages has not influenced your opinion?"

The question relating to his threatened suit against the county was suggested by threats which he had t»adc from time to time as the trial progressed, lie seemed to believe that his dignity and integrity were outraged when he was given into the custody of bailiffs and practically made a prisoner, and he said more than once that hi* would bring un, against the: county as soon as he should be released.

Culver did not nnswer one of the questions, nor did ho comment on them, but when the reeling was finished ho went to another part of the big room and hurriedly penned a letter to Judge iMoConnell, which was carried to the latter by a bailiff. The letter was a complaint that his integrity was being assailed and demanding protection. The judge's reply was a disinclination to interfere.

Culver shortly afterward admitted in the presence of three jurors that, he had entered the jury-room with a previouslyformed opinion, and a conviction that those witnesses who wero. under the protection of policemen were not worthy of belief. lie also admitted .hat he ought to have told the counsel of his conviction before lie was sworn in as a juror. lie had a complete defense for (('Sullivan and another for Dan Cough 1 in. Ivunze and Hoggs, he said, needed no defense. The more tho other jurors talked to him the more obstinate he became. lie refused to listen to tho reading of Judge McConnell's instructions until forced to do so by his fellow-jurors. It was thif episode which caused him to open tho door and ask the bailiff to send an officer to the jury-room to protect him.

Saturday morning at o'clock the jurors, who had been debating earnestly tor several hours, concluded to begin balloting again. The result was tho same, throughout the day--eleven for conviction, one for acquittal. La to Saturday night Culver took two jurors aside aud told them that if they would let Kunze and I'-eggs go free he would vote to find the other three guilty. The proposition was instantly rejected. No further word was done that, night, but at 7 o'clock Sunday morning-Foreman

rtian a free man. The nim ot added another man to th" p-i ilaux that, was standing out. for Kur.zo's con viction. and then, before another ballot was taken, an effort was made to determine the degree of his guilt. Noii" (if :lie jurors seemed to be willing to send him to the

penitentiary for a term of fourteen years,

which is the minimum penalty for tho crime of murder. T-iey did not know whether or no! they had the right to find him guilty of manslaughter, and to determine the question they sent a note to Judge MeConnell to find out how far they could go. The reply was that Kunze could 'no found gu ltv of manslaughter. His fate was set tied on the thirteenth ballot.

Then came the important part of the deliberations—the tivinsr of the punishment- of the three chief conspirators. The fourteenth ballot, was taken to find out if 1'urke, Coucrhlin and O'Sullivan I should be hanged. Ten vote1, "yes" and two "no." When Hurke was voted on alone all but Culver voted to hang him. The dissenter had a supporter in O'Sullivan's ease, but lie was alone again when Ooughlin's name was mentioned. On the eighteenth ballot, which was taken to find out whether life imprisonment would be a sufficient, punishment, the vole stood six to six. On the nineteenth ballot Culver alone stood between O'Sullivan and the gallows. and when the twentieth ballot was taken, late Snndav evening. the three murderers were in the shadow of tho gallows. Before the jury ceased balloting Sunday night Culver intimated very strongly that lie would not consent to send the murderers down for a longer term than fourteen years. He said they might, be innocent, and that if it should ever turn out that, he had hanged an innocent man lie,.could never forgive himself.

After the twentv-first ballot, which was taken on Monday morning. Culver said he would consent to send the murderers to tho penitentiary for twentyfive years, and a ballot was taken on tho proposition. Every one of Culver's colleagues voted against, it. The twentysecond. twenty-third. twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth ballots were taken on the infliction of the death penalty for all three, and. as before, the result of each was eleven to one. There was no change until after the thirtieth ballot had been recorded. Then Culver threatened to withdraw his vote of "guilty" unless the others would cease voting for capital punishment. Culver knew that he was master of the situation. He was a great deal fresher than old man Walker or l'ierson. the farmer, both of whom were suffering keenly. The ether jurors were afraid that either of those two was liable to give out any moment, hence they determined to bring the affair to a speedy conclusion.

At o'clock the thirty-first ballot was taken on the proposition to send the murderers to the penitentiary for life. Marl or, 'fall, liontecon, Pierson and liryan voted in the negative. Tho other seven voted in the affirmative. Thirtyfive minutes later the thirty-second and last ballot was cast. All twelve "peers voted to send the trio to the penitentiary for life. While the verdict wr.s being written and signed Culver stated that he believed the men to be innocent. and that he only yielded to tho majority because he believed they were conscientious men.

A Trapper's. Trtclc.

There wero thirty of us in camp on a spur of the Black Hills mining for gold, lien one afternoon wo looked down upon the level plain and saw four mounted redskins chasing a white man on a mule. He wus making for us, but they wero rapidly overhauling him,

it wus

',,i

in .1!0ugh that, we could render

no assistance. The foremost Ind'an fired a shot, nnd man and mule fell in a heap. The Indians pressed forward, yelling and exulting, but tho faint reports of a revolver reached our ears, and *ve saw redskins and ponies tumbling over at every report. Some of our men slid down tho steep mountain side to take a hand in, but it. was not needed. When they reached tho man he sat on the ground laughing as if he would split. "To think!" lie shouted, as toon as he could control his voice, "that these 'ere Sioux, who are rated sharp as razors, could be fooled by that old trick—ha! ha! ha!"' And he laughed until he had wiped away the tears. On tho ground near hv were three dead Indians, nnd another about to die, while two of the ponies were dead and the other two badly wounded.

It had all been done with an old fashioned Colt's revolver, loaded with powder and ball, and carrying a jiercussion cap, but the work had been rapid and sure. The Indians had closed in on him, supposing him to be dead adly wounded, while neither man nor mule had been touched. AfU'i' a bit the man. who was an old trapper, went over to the wounded warrior, nnd said to him in the Sioux dialect, nnd chuckling Ijetwecn his words: "Say, did any of you fellers ever see a white man before."' "Many of them," gasped tho "Didn't you ever hear of that old trick before/" "Isn't the white man wounded?" "Not by a dozen Nancy Janes! That bullet didn't come within a rod of me. I gave my old mule the signal to squat, and down he tumbled to draw vou on. The other three are dead, and you are alxut to go. Say, I don't want to hurt a dying Injun's feolings, but—ha! ha! ha!—but it was 'null to kill a fellow to see how you four opened your—ha! ha! ha!—eyes when I began to popl Funniest thing I have seen in a year! Durn it, 1 won't need any qui'neeti for a month. I'm just sweating the chills off with laughing 1"

The Indian gazed at him in a troubled way for a moment, seemed to realize that ho had been duped, and he closed his eyes and died without ever raising tho lids again.—New York Sun.

The English Rod Conts. 'I^ts

When, in 1851, tlio Duke of Wellington' asked Lord Stanhope, then war minister, as to when tho English army first wore red, he was told that, the custom dated from the time of Charles 11. The duke thought it was earlier, and Lord Macaulay said that he was right, and that the commonwealth armjT wore red. This was, however, not exactly the case, and tho statement was wroug in more than one respect. Maj. Hon. Harold Dillon, in an article in Colburn's United Service Magazine, shows when this color was first adopted.

As early as the campaign in Spain, in 1307, in support of Peter tho Cruel, and also in the following reign of Richard II, the English soldier appears to have been in white with a red cross of St. George on his breast and back. At Agincoart, in 141", the English archers are mentioned as mostly wearing no armor and some only doublets, and with their hose loose, evidently to give them greater freedom of action. Caps of boiled leather and of wicker work crossed with bands of iron constituted their best head pieces. It was only after along campaign, or series of campaigns, that the ordinary soldier could provide himself with portions of defensive armor.

During the Wars of tlie Roses tho badges of tho respective leaders would be the chief distinctions in the armies, all speaking one tongue and being of one race. However, in 1401, there is evidence of red being adopted, for a small number of men at lea-st., when a contingent for the army of the king maker, tho Earl of Warwick, was sent from Rye pressed in red coats. In 1-170 a d.tnehment of fifteen men sent from Canterbury for the Calais garrison, aiul others for London, were supplied with red "jakettis" of cloth at three shillings a yard, having on them "roses of white karsey" as badges. Ileury VII, in

A businessman of Detroit, whofo*ofliee' is on Woodward avenue, relates this .singular experience in The Free Press: "I wanted a 810 bill changed, find as I was alone 1 stepped to the door and called a little newsboy whom I had frequently employed to run on errands, und told him to carry it to the nearest store and get it changed. I then went inside and waited. My partner came in and ridiculed me for what I had done. 'You will never see tho boy or tho change again,' lie said. "I must say his prophecy looked possible when as hours went by the boy did not return still I trusted him. I could easier believe that he had been run over or made away with than that ho had stolen the money. "I did not change my mind when a week had passed. I did not know where he lived or who his associates were, nnd no newsboy seemed to bo misamg. The second week was nearly gone, when a woman came into my office one daj\ She was crying. 'Are you Mr. sho asked. 'I am, madam. What can I do for youf "Then sho told mo that her little boy was dying that he had been ill nearly two weeks, aud kept constantly calling my name. I wrent with her and found my missing newsboy. As soon as ho saw me ho began to rave. 'I lost it! I lost it!' was tho burden of his cry, but I alone knew what lie referred to. He had lost the $10 note, nnd it had preyed ou his mind, causing brain fever, lie died my arms, unconscious that I had trusted him from tho very first, and that I would have done anything to save his life. I have not doubt that ho either lost it or had it snatched from him, and his sensitive naturo kept hi ui from telling tho truth, and he gave his lifo up in tho struggle."

Learning Self Control.

Among the most important of nursery lessons, a lesson which cannot begin too early, is that of self control in pain as in everything e'.so. Parents make a great mistake when they teach all their other children to I give up to the one who happens to be an in- I valid. Care and consideration should bo exacted always but too much submission is almost certain to make of tho sufferer un

They buy their goods very close ami give their customers the benefit or close buying, they handle the best line of goods 1 know of and keep their stock arranged so as to attract attention, and treat all customers alike and I tell you they are coining right to the front. I'hey pay a little more Tor produce than the other dealers and that makes them a nice country trade and their city trade can alwir.s get flesh produce when they want it, and that's a nice flung itself. They appreciate any person's trade ami do all in their power to please theni. If 1 wus located in or near Crawfordsville would certainly do my trading with those boys."
