It is now thought he was mur dered. It seems that on Wednesday of last week a gathering was had at the house ot Joe Elliott, at which whisky was freely drank. There were present be sides Elliott and Kennefick, Al Hembree and another man whose name could not be learned. An altercation arose, in the course of which, it ' is alleged, Hembree struck Mr. Kennefick over the head with a bar or club, which produced a fatal injury. Bloodstains were. found in Elliot's house and leading along the trail for a half mile to where the body was found. Hembree has been arrested and the others are held as ' witnesses. The facts will come np before the grand jury, which will meet wnen tne next term of court is held at Moro, which will be on the 13th of March. . i .

Walter Reavis won the medal, his "selection being "Patriotic ". Prohibition." His voice was well suited to the oratorio de mands of the piece, and gesture and ex pression were not wanting. The judges professed great difficulty in assigning the prize, and with justice. 1 Their posi tion was not enviable. "The Deacon's Match," by Fannie , Cheeseman, was admirably rendered, the selection abounding in incident and dramatic action. .. Equally, as well did Jessie But ler in "How to . Curtail the Liquor Traffic," a semi-humorous, semi-serious temperance recitation. Joseph McNeil in his dialect piece,' perfectly imitated the broken English of the Dutch, but lacked a certain enthusiasm which required , to make such pieces catchy, Miss Alice Ball, in "Not Dead, but Dying," while her intonation and' em phasis were perfect, evinced a conscious ness of her surroundings which is al ways hard to 'overcome, and which detracts from a meritorious rendi tion; - further practice ' will , how' ever, make her a formidable contestant, The same fault might be attributed to Harrv Bowman, who possesses all the native talent required in. an el oca tionist.
