GIBSON FOUND GUILTY Jury Brings in Verdict of Second Degree. Tho jury in tho Gibson murder case rendered its verdict of. murder iu'the second degree after having been out about four hours. This is Gibson's third trail for tho killing of B. Schon- bacheler near Merlin, April 18, BKVJ. In tho first trial the jury disagreed, iu the second a verdict of murder iu the first degree was rendered, but the case was apiicalcd. The thiru trial was beguu October I,, but a jury was not secured until tho afternoon of tho 7th. The case went to the jury shortly before 8 o'clock Saturday night and a few minutes before mid night an agreement had beeu reached. Judge Hauna having retired for the night, was called aud opened court to receive the verdict nnd dismissed the jury. The crime for which Thomas Jeffer son Gibson was convicted ou the third trial is the shooting of B. Schouhuch- elerat his home about four milee from Merliu ou Friday, April 18, M. According to evidence there wero two witnesses to the tragedy, Mrs. Schou bacheler, wife of the murdered man, aud Charles Van Dorn, a neighbor, who whs in nis dooryard across Rogue river, and heard the fatal shot and saw the prostrnto form. Gibson immediately surrendered himself nnd wits taken to Grants Pass and con fined in the county julL The tragedy was tho culmination of a dispute of many years' duration over tho boundary lino between the Schoiihacheler ranch and the rented place ou which Gibson was living. Numerous threats of bodily harm and even threats to kill are said to have been made ou both sides, nnd both men wero expecting trouble. Schoiihacheler the afternoon on which ho was shot took his ancient muzzlo-louding shotgun and itold Ills wife ho would go out to shoot some birds. Gibson, going jmst the place, carrying a 30-110 Winchester saw Schonbaeheler coming toward him with the gun and coinmniidcd him to throw down the gun, at the sumo time shooting his victim in tho head, killing him instantly. Gibson walk ed nearly around the prostrate body at some dbtniice and Hied again, this lime tne bullet entering his shoulder. When the case came ou for trial, at this term of court, out of u panel of 40 jurymen only one juror was so cured. Tho counsel for the defense tliciin made a motion to have the case taken out of court ou tho grouudthiit Gibson was insane. A commission was apjKiiuted by Judge 11 anna to oxainiuo Gibson. They decided that Gibson was sane and the drawing on jurors was couti nucd. The jury was secured after (10 or 70 men were ex amined. Ou Wednesday Judge Hauna sen fenced Gibson to tho penitentiary for life. COMING EVENTS. Oct. In. Thursday Meeting of Oily council, at city nun. Oct HI.

HARTH nai YOU aro going to bny your winter shoes. Which kind are yon going to bny? A good shoe may cost a trifle more than the cheap, no account shoe, built to please the eye and catch the careless buyer, bnt is H economy to bny the inferior quality shoo? If you are going to buy a heavy, every day, good to wear shoe, easy on our feet, and as near water proof as leather is made, buy the TJuited Workingmen Oro Kip Shot's. These shoes are mado plaiu too or tip, with or without outside counter, medium or high cut. A SHOE with a reputation Is the Walk-Ovor. Ihiak cf it, l,9o8,000 pairs of shoes were made by them in their own factories during the year ending November 40, 11)01. Yon want comfort nnd economy, you want a shoe that will wear and keep its bIibih', sightly, and dressy, buy a TTalk-Over 8hoe- YOU don't know what to bny for that boy. It was the same with us. Wu solved tho question. Without any hesita tion wo can recommend the Good For Bad Boys Shoes, aud assure yon there is uo shoo ou the market that will give tho wear and durability, comfort aud ease Good For Bad Boys shoos will do. The old adage "The proof of the pudding is tho eating thereof" will apply to Good For Bad Boys shoes nnd all wo ask is try a pair with the assurance that- these shoes will provo tho best luvoHtnient you have mado for boys shoes.
