A DEMOCRAT CURED. A leading democrat ot Burlingto Mr E. M. Sutlon, speaks in the highest terms of the curative power of the celebrated Kidney-Wort. It first cured him of a distressing Kidney disease, and he now uses it whenever he has any symptoms of biliousness or needs toning up. It acts efficiently on the bowels, and cures the worst cases of piles. ^5

WHEN YOU FEEL MEAN take Kidney-Wort, advertised in another column. It acts energetically on the bowels and Kidneys at the same time, and so cures a host of diseases caused by the inaction of these organs. If you are out of fix, buy it at your druggists and save a doctor's bill.

AS A CURE FOR PILES. Kidney-Wort acts first by overcoming in the mildest manner all tendency to constipation then, by its great tonic and nvigoroting properties, it restores to health the djbilated and weakened parts. We have hundreds of certified cures, where all else had failed. Use it and suffer no longer.

FOR MURDE]

WM. TAYLOR ON TRIAL FOR THE MURDER OF JAS. CAMPER. From Monday's Dally.

The trial of Wm. Taylor for the murder of James Camper, north of this city some time since, is in progress to-day before Judge Long in the Criminal Court. Before the opening of the trial Taylor had arrayed himself in a new suit of black clothes, in an adjoining room, and presented a neat and clean appearance. A large number of auditors were present, the number constantly increasing as the trial advanced. The prisoner was represented by Messrs. N. G. Buff and Frank C. Danaldson,and the state bv Prosecutor Kelly. The thirtysix men subpoenaed from the southern part of the county from whom a jury was to be selected, were present. An hour or so was spent in getting a suitable jury, composed of the following: Hiram Farmer, Andrew J. Harmon, Charley B. Morgan. Ebenezer Paddock, John Hutton. George Griggsby, Eli R. Crites, Wm. J.Payne, James J. Wilson, Wen. Hanger, Wm. A. Wingler and Joseph Weir.

The Court then adjourned to meet at 2 o'clock.

From Tuesday's Dallypi

The Taylor murder trial was resumed this morning in the Criminal Court. The court room was crowded. The first witness on the stand was

MRS. CHENEY.

who answered the questions put to he by the lawyers in a sharp tone. It was soon discoyered t^at the witness could not be bulldozed into contradicting herself. She testified that she came fo Camper's house on the evening of the 3oth of August last to show them some pictures she had taken, and while showing the pictures, Taylor asked her for one. She refused. Taylor said that he understood that she (Mrs. Camper) was going to have hiir. put Under bonds to keep the peace. Taylor slapped the light ont of her hand. He said he would giv* her reasons for putting him under bonds. He then knocked her down and kicked her. She heard Camper telling Taylor that he did not ish any disturbance raised in his house. Some words passed between them. She heard some scuffling.

them. She heard some scuffling. MRS. CAMPER, the wife of the murdered man, was the next witness. She is a small, pale country woman. Just as she was about to testify her baby, which she carried in her lap, began to cry, and it became evident to the court that the child should stop its bawling. Just then Emory P. Beauchamp volunteered to hold the baby, and try to pacify it, which he did with such success that it shows that, no doubt, he has had schooling in that department. The witness evidently was never before a court previous to this, for she began by telling Mr. Kelly in a somewhat confidential manner across the table that her name was Eliza Ellen Camper, Wife of the man of the same name, whose unexpected demise occurred on the 30th of August last. Mrs.

WM. HUDDLESON

was the next witness. His testimony was only a corroboration of the story told by the other witnesses. While on the stand Huddlcson availed himself of an opportunity to state that he had Taylor arrested a year ago last spring for attempting to commit a rape upon his (Huddleson's) wife. The witness was soon stopped, however, and, it being near 12 o'clock, the court adjourned to meet this afternoon.

THIS AFTERNOON.

The court re-assembled this afternnon.

Three witnesses for the state have been

o'clock. Opening

statements were made by the attorney" on both sides. The witnesse will not be examined before to-morrow.??

Camper at last was got to talk to the jury. She testified that on the night of the murder she was expecting her father to come to her house. While she and her husband were in bed that evening they heard somebody walk across the porch. She instantly jumped up, thinking it was her father whose arrival she was expecting every moment. She was surprised, therefore, at finding Taylor and her husband's brother, Thomas Camper, waiting for admittance. Camper, as soon as admitted, asked for some writing paper. Taylor was about to strike a light but she told him to wait until she dressed and she would light the lamp. They were there awhile when Mrs. Cheney entered with some pictures which she wanted to show them. Taylor asked for one of the pictures but Mrs. Cheney refused. Taylor then slapped the lamp out of her hand, and said he understood that she (Mrs. Cheney) was going to have him put under bond to keep the peace. He (Taylor) would give her some reason for doing such a thing, whereupon he struck Mrs. Cheney, knocked her down and kicked her. Mrs. Cheney was then compelled to go out of the house. Camper, who was in bed, then told Taylor that he wanted no disturbance raised in his house, whereupon Taylor walked over to Camper's bed-side and wanted to know what in the h—11 was the matter with him ? Camper ordered Taylor out of the house. Taylor then repeated "order me out of the house" three times in a defiant way, and then he struck Camper with his fist. They clinched, and then Mrs. Camper and Thos. Camper went out of the house. The two kept fighting at intervals, Camper telling Taylor all the while to get off of his premises. The witness did not see Taylor cut Camper. Camper died near Huddleson's house, and while the witness and her children were bending over him weeping, Taylor, who was not far off, mocked them. The witness saw a small glittering object in Taylor's hand; could not tell whether or not it was a knife.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

examined up to the time of our going to press: Isaac Uhlrich, Mr. Mercer and Mr. Quinlan. The most damaging testimony Is that of Uhlrich, who is a saloon keeper. He testified that on the day of the murder, Taylor entered his saloon and flourishing a knife, said that he was going to make it hot for Camper, or words to that effect. The defense tried hsrd to get Uhlrich to testify that Taylor was drunk, but did not succeed. 1 I1 From Wednesday's Daliy.^

At half past nine this morning James Taylor, the murderer of James Camper, was placed on the witness stand to testify in his own defense. At times during his recital of his story, his voice became husky with emotion, and he seemed deeply affected. His appearance indicates that he begins to realize his dangerous position. On his way to jail, Taylor, in company with Sheriff Hay, stopped in at a barber shop and the prisoner had himself shaved. He was sworn and testified in his own behalf: "I am

years of age, and married my

wife is now lying at the point of death at Paris, 111." He further stated that he was never in Mr. Uhlrich's saloon as testified to yesterday by Mr. Uhlrich. Relative to the testimony of Michael Quinlan and Robt. Mercer, he denied that he made the threats against the Camper family in Quinlan's saloon, as testified to by said Quinlan and Mercer. About noon of the day of the murder he came to town and went to F. C. Danald son's office to see about some land which his wife had fallen heir to. He concluded his business with Mr. Danaldson and walked up to Fred Fauts' grocery at the junction of the Lafayette read, to wait for a wagon to ride home. He owed Mr. Quinlan $1.25 and paid him $1 of it he staved about an hour and a half at Quinlan's. In the conversation that ensued at Quinlan's the name of np member of the Camper family was used but John Camper. The witness did not see Robt. Mercer at Quinlan's. The witness gave some whhky to Uncle Jas. Stinson to get to ride with him. He did not ride with Stinson, however, but some way or other got into the wagon of Robt. Mercer, intending to go home. Jim Catnper was in the wagon and several others. They were in good humor, all laughing and joking. He was only joking with Tom Camper, when he told him lie would whip him if he did not go home with him.

The party raced all the way on the road. After the party reached the house Tom Camper asked him if he would go over to James Camper's house and get some writing paper. The witness consented and went over with Camper. When walking on the porch of Camper's house, somebody (the witness thought it was Mrs. Camper,) called out, "Come in, Pa." The witness then heard another voice, (that of Camper,) saying, That is not pa it is Bill Taylor." Then a voice said, Come in, Bill." and the witness entered. Mrs. Camper was up, but Mr. Camper was in bed he saw no children. Mrs. Cheney soon entered with 6ome pictures, and the witness asked her for one. She said, "I'd burn,them up before I'd give them to you, ^ou son-of-a-b—h." Mrs. Cheney repeated this, and while doing so, either the witness er Mrs. Cnenej knocked the lamp to the floor. Mrs. Cheney then said, "I will have you put Uhdef bond to keep the peace." He (the witness) said, "I will give you reason for doing So,1' and he slapped her in the face. It was then very dark in the house. He did not kick Mrs. Cheney. James Camper, who was in bed, then said, "Yes, Taylor, you are a son of a b—h get out of my hcuse." The witness then went over to Camper's bed side

ask him what he had against him. Cam--per raided himself up and slapped him, and the witness hit back. He was then knocked down by somebody, who, the witness was not sure, but thought it was Tom Camper. James Camper then jumped on the witness and choked him so that he could scarcely breathe. He got up with difficulty and ran out in the yard, saying as he did, "My God dont all jump onto me." The two Campers then pursued him, Tom Camper having ac lub in his hand. Tom Camper cried, "Kill the son-of-a-b—h before he gets out of the hcuse." While the witness was running he suddenly stumbled over one of Camper's dogs. He looked back, then, and saw Tom Camper pass something (the witness thought it was a knife) to his brother. The witness then cried out, Don't follow me any further, or I will hurt you and took" out his knife. James Camper then ran up and struck at witness with a knife, inflicting a cut on h»s chin. The witness then cut with his knife hitting Camper somewhere on the neck. He did not hear, neither did he mock the groaning of Camper. He then fled to Chicago, got money from a relative, then went to Evansville and afterwards to Graysville Where he was arrested 4 f,

SAM. FLAID

was the next witness. He testified that he visited the scene of the murder with Sheriff Hay, Justice Steinmehl and Coronor Ehrenhardt. He was present at the inquest. He examined the wound in Camper's neck. Camper was cut on the ett side, one and a quarter inches in length and about one inch in depth. lie inserted his finger in the wound,

H'hl

THOS. CAMPER,

brother of the murdered man, was the next witners. He testified how he and Taylor went to his brother's house for some writing paper. The witness cor roborated the story of the quarrel as told by Mrs. Camper. When he discerned that his brother was cut he ran to the stable, and was in the act of getting on a horse to go for a doctor when he was notified that his broth[e]r had expired. The wounded man lived only a short time after his cut; he was not able to speak to his wife or children.

MRS. CHENEY

re-called by the state, testified that she never called Taylor a son of a b—h. She further denied the conversation detailed as taken place between her and Taylor. She did not participate in the struggle. Tom and James Camper alone took part. She never noticed the scar on the chin

wtu the next witness. He testified- that there are 17 or 18 pounds of blood in the average man. The heart discharges about two ounces at each pulsation. It would take only a few moments for a man with his jugular vein severed to bleed to death. After the jugular vein is cut syncope (faintrix) would occur in a few moments. The witness thought it impossible that Camper would, not have fainted before going any considerable distance. From Mr. Flaid's teetiunony the witness would say t«iat the external jugular and external carotid veins would probably be severed. The witness here read some celebrated authorities. The witness did think that if the jugular vein was cut in the door, Camper could not have reacheh the spot where he died. The pulsation is more rapid when laboring under excitement.

THE EXODUS.

The Crowds of People who Went to Indianapolis-

Two Train Lsadi via lh« Vanda- .,. II* Lin? ...

From Tuesday's Daily.

People commenced going into Indianapolis yesterday. The Vandalia took in a train of ten car loads yesterday afternoon and last night a large party came up from Evansville and passed through here.

This morning, at a very early hour the streets here were lively with the sound of fife and drum and the magificent music of our two bands.

The McKeen Cadets went to the depot first, headed by Harry Owen's Silver Cornet band, which wiil shortly be called the McKeen Cadet band. Later a regular procession formed and went down in this order:

ATTRACTIVE BOYS. We have attended church several times in the city, and have visited the opera once or twice, and at all places we have been made to observe the barnacle-like tenacity with which a crowd of boys stick to the door, or fill up the passageway when the audience attempts to pass out. These boys range in age from ten to twenty years the larger of them, at this season of the year, are Usually engulfed in coffee-sack ulsters, only their heads and feet being visible. Their red faces are brought to foci by short, Jong or medium sized noses, extending in a direction at right angles with a dark object they call a cigar, which is held either in the right or let corner of the mouth. The smaller boys differ from the larger in that they have no overcoat, and in the manner of holding the cigar. The small boy's cigar being necessarily of a cheap quality, requires greater force to make it draw, hence he places it in the center of his mouth, compresses his cheeksr and thus throws his head into a shape resembling a hand bellows,, the cigar corresponding to the nozzle of the b?llows.

Drum corps,

r'&' Light Guards, \Governor Guards, Hager Veterans,

Dreusicke's Light Artillery. 1 The band, the Drum Corps and the Light Guards all wear similar light uniforms which showed up splendidly in the long time of march. All the companies were fairly represented. Capt. Dreusicke did not take his battery. The Indianapolis people with singular parsimony after requiring the captain to pay all expenses in bringing his battery over, which was the only one in the state expected te be there, declared they could not secure the eight horses necessary to draw the guns, and intimated that the captain would have to furnish them also. This seemed So much like "crowding things" that the captain would not take his cannon. The men, about twenty in number, went over with their side arms only.

Two long train loads of people went from here. The list of citizens who went is too extensive to publish.

From Monday's Dailv.

Ever since he drew plans for a Court House for Vigo County, which plans were accepted by the board of commissioners though the Court House itself was never built, architect Yrydagh had a claim against Vijjo County. With the history of the new Court House the people of the county are familiar, and it need!.. not be repeated here. This1 claim covered a certain gam for the plans and another for money he would have made under his contract for supervising the building. The aggregate of his claims amounted to something over

A STRANGE "FREAK." From Tuesday's Daily. This morning, about 8 o'clock, during the prevalence of the storm, the Flagan house, situated on the lot corner of Four teenth street and Liberty avenue, was ctruck bv lightning, killing a cat, destroying the* chimney, and otherwise dismantling the property, the house being occupied by the Widow Dinges and her widowed mother-in-law, Mrs. Dietz, who has been confined to her bed for some weeks past. The family were severely stunned, but will recover from the shock without injurious results. Mrs. Dinges makes her living and supports her family by washing, and the occurrence this morning will interfere with her means of making a livelihood.

THE McKesn Cadets and their band created quite a sensation yesterday according to all accounts, at Indianapolis. There were forty-one of the Cadets in line and they were vociferously applauded at every corner they turned by the enthusiastic crowd. The Owens band also won much applause. At the Circle House, where there is a

The verdict returned is for
