GENERAL AND STATE NEWS

Telegraphic Reports from Many Parts of the Country SHORT BITS OF THE UNUSUAL Happenings in Distant and Nearby Cities and Towns—Matters of Minor Mention from Many Places. SECOND TRIAL FOR MURDER. Day and Hubbard Are Again on Trial at Watseka. .¶ The second trial in the Bradrlck murder case was opened at Watseka Monday with Judge Campbell on the bench. Considerable trouble is being experienced in getting a jury as nearly every resident of Iroquois county formed or expressed an opinion during the former trial. Public opinion differs as to the guilt or innocence of Day and Hubbard and it is stated that but little new evidence has been secured in support of the alibi defense.—Newton County Enterprise.
