DR. MILLER RELATES THE KILLING OF J. B. SAYLER.
Murder Casc of Interest to Jasper County People Proceeds In Court At Watseka, Illinois. The trial of Dr. W. R. Miller, for the murder of J. B. Sayler, is still going on at Watseka, 111. Sayler was murdered at Cresent City last July. Dr. Miller yesterday testified as to his version of the murder. Sayler has many relatives in Jasper county, which has caused intense interest in the case here. A dispatch from Wat-
seka says: Dr. W. R. Miller, on trial for the murder of J. B. Sayler, today dramatically recited his version of the shooting which cost the life of his friend, J. B. Sayler, within the walls of that friend’s house in Crescent City last July.
The climax of the day came when Dr. Miller, seated in a hugh red rocking chair, the same chair he had occupied that July night, told the jury
what he remembered of the affair. Not a hint was given by the witness of the motive which prompted what he said was a savage attack on him. Through it all his co-defendant, Mrs. J. B. Sayler, widow of the slain man, sat with bowed head and tear-stained eyes, while John Grunden, her father, also under the shadow of the same accusation, stared straight ahead.
In brief the witness said that Sayler, who had refused to join the three defendants in a game of cards, rushed into the little parlor, seized a hand ax from beneath a couch, struck at him, overturned the lamp and then in darkness grappled in a death struggle which ended only when four bullets had pierced tie attacker’s frame. As he told his story, Dr. Miller leaned far back in the rocking chair, placed before the. jury box, almost overturning itrand swaying from side to side, pictured the combat. “He came at -me like a madman,
brandishing- a hand ax. and shouted, ‘I am going to kill you,’ ’’’ said Dr. Miller. “He stumbled against the table, overturneding the lamp and the first blow struck my upraised arm. Hq lurched upon me and I could not escape. I grabbed for his arm with my right hand, and he pulled away, again I caught it. It was dark, his hand was on my throat. I drew my revolver and shot quickly. "I could not see him. “The third shot struck my wrist. After the fourth he drew away and I could dimly see him stagger back, stand upright and then topple over against the wall.
“The overturned lamp still burned feebly; John Grunden took my gun. We bound my wrist and I looked at the body.
' ‘ Out oii the porch I met Mrs.-Sayler and told her By was dead. ‘My God what shall I do,’ she said, and knelt beside the body of her husband.”' The tragic recital was only a part of the ordeal through which Dr. Miller three hours he was on the stand, a third of the time questioned by his own counsel anthAhrough thfi, remainder of the time was subjected to a severe cross-examination by At torney Keestar, of Danville, who is aiding State’s Attorney Pellisard in the case.

Enterprise Started in Rensselaer Is Doing A Good Business.
John C. Roelofs, who recently came here from Marion, and Harry A. Collins, son of Alfred Collins* recently established a collection agency under the name of the National Mercantile Association, and they have been very busy since the company was organized. Mr. Roelofs does the solicting
on the road, visiting towns near and far and bringing or sending in accounts to the office here for collection. Mr. Collins superintends the sending out of statements and has charge of the correspondence. The company started in business on Feb. 10th and Mr. Roelofs has been getting more business than Mr. Collins and his stenographer could handle, and although about 5,000 letters have already been sent out, the company is much behind with its business and are now advertising for another stenographer and three men for the road. The company is a big stamp consumer, proving a great boon to the postoffice business and using about twice as manji stamps as the three banks together. There seems no end to the amount of work, as the field is large and the company is Just -getting started. Their aim is to exhaust every means to 1 entreat Q r compel payments of just debts, and they have arrangements to sue on accounts whereever
an amicable adjustment can not be made. That the company will grow into a profitable business, there seems no doubt. The members of the firm are both hustlers and the returns so far have been abundantly satisfactory.
Hemp Growing In Indiana.
The raising and marketing of hemp is northern Indiana’s latest industry. D S. Myers, of St. Joseph county will
turn his farm of 325 acres over growing of hemp. Myers brought from Kentucky 181 negroes, men and women, on a special train.
He began his experiment last fall, when he grew a crop of 400,000 pounds, which will bring 3 to 7 cents a pound, government experts from Washington having pronounced the crop As good as any raised in the country. The negroes Have been brought here to break the hemp. »
Inasmuch as much of the crop was, raised on marsh land, owners of land on the Kankakee are watching the result with interest, and the chances are that they will follow Myers’ example next fall and turn northern Indiana into one of the greatest hemp raising districts of the United States. —^

J. Hobbs visited from Friday until Sunday with home folks at Hebron. E. L. Hollingsworth was out from Rensselaer in his automobile Sunday, inspecting his farm here.

Her many friends and schoolmates were gratified- to learn the good news,, as she has been out of school since her voice left her.t >

A HELPING HAND.
Is Gladly Extended by a Rensselaer Citizen. ? —* --r-~ v —«_—. —...—— There are many enthusiastic citizens in Rensselaer prepared to tell their experience for the public good. Testimony from such a source is the best of evidence, and will prove a “helping hand” to scores of readers. Read the following statement: Charles Malchow, Harvey street, Rensselaer, Ind., says: “Kidney com. plaint and backache kept me in misery for years. The attacks came on so frequently that it seemed as if I were never free from pain. The small of my back-was the part most affected, but often the pain extended through my shoulders and even into my neck. The kidney secretions'annoyed me by their irregularity in passage and proved that my kidneys were at fault, Years ago I learned about Doan’s Kidney Pills and on getting a supply at Fendig’s Drug Store, I began their use. After taking a few doses,-1 knew that I had found at last the remedy 1 needed. My kidneys were strenghtened and the pains in my back were disposed of. I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then, when having similar attacks and I have never failed tc get prompt and lasting relief. This remedy lives up to all the claims made for it.”
