This afternoon is the time set for the dedicatory exerclses of the new county court house. ‘The building is the finest county building in the state, and merits a dedication which would draw hither prominents from all points. The preliminary arrangements seem to have been everybody's business, and in accordance with the proverb have been most zealously cared for by nobody. There appears to be no one who can tell what the programme is to be, or whoare to take part. The interior of the beau- tiful building is in more or less of dis- order, consequent upon the moving in of the various officials. There are old shelves and cases, relics from the old court house.ithere is already the need of scrubbing in_the hallways, the new carpets are not down, in fact there are many details which ought to have been looked after before the formal The (Cold Figures.

The wit- nesses for the state were examined yesterday, sixteen being the unusual number, and their testimony was all in by 4 o'clock in the afternoon. The rapidity with which witnosses were ex- amined was rather remarkable, con- sidering the importance of the case, the indictment being for murder. The witnesses were asked but_few questions on cross-examination. The prosecution desired a little time to geta few more witnesses, and so an early adjournment was taken to accommodate them. The tragedy occurred on the night of November 11, 1886.

The case at the time of its qrigin caused much public excitement, and it was difficult at that time to get at any very clear idea as to how the shooting took place. It has been generally supposed that it would be difticult to prove who really fired the shot, as the party were more or less hilarious ulnl their testimony on the oreliminary hearing confused. All doubt is now at any end, as Schisler, when he goes on the stand, will admit having fired the shot, and hopes to be acquitted on the ground that he did so in self-defense. No evidence has been introduced as to whether Keating had @ revolver or not, but the defense will rest largely on the claim that G.

Gazette: The convening of the district court in Davenport, now in session, reminds us of astory. A few terms ago an old settler reccived the regular official notice he was to serve his country as a petit juror. Well, he said, I'm over sixty years old and never was on a jury in my lifé. Come tothink of it, however, I was on a jury of six, in a 'squires court at Cairo, Ill., and that was way back in 1848, nearly forty years ago. Cairo was then a place of ‘most disreputable name, but' with a few mighty good fellows arqund. .Squire O’Shaugnessy was the only ustice in =~ town. His bar or ‘coffee house,” as we used to call ’em, instead of saloon or sample room as now- adays, was nearly a mile up the Ohio levee. Well, the squire had a crim- inal case on hand one day,and I was summoned by Constable Corcoran to act as onc of the jurors.. The squire pro- ceeded to open court ih due and legal form by asking all the jurors to take a drink, and ¥on may reasonably bet we did. Then he remarked, a8 no lawyers lived there, he would trot through the case himself, and in the meantime the i‘uron had a perfect legal right to the alf dozen chairs at the bar. And we ousted the occupants. The squire went through the several witnesses lively, occasionally stopping to answer raps on the counter, and the case was soon submitted to the mercies of the jury, who were ordered to retire into a small back room, and take their chairs with them. 7The case was a little mixed up, and the jury therefore slow in com- ‘"f tos conclusion.

The board of trade met in their rooms in the Brown building last evening at 7:30 o’clock. 1In the absence of Presi- dent Wells, Mr. T, J. Evans was called to the chair. Mr. Merriam, of the com- mittee on jobbers and manufacturers, reported in regard to conference of the jobbers on the preceding evening. A telegram from Senator Gronenweg was read, favoring sending a committee to Des Moines to look after the question of rates as affecting the jobbers and ship- pers of this city. Mr, Merriam moved that the chair ap- point a concurrent committee to be com- posed of representatives from the job- hing houses of the city, to confer with the merchants’ and jobbers’ committee as to the best interests of the jobbers and shippers. The motion was carried. The chair made the following appoint- ments: Messrs., Hill, MeConnell, Haas, Green, Wells and Gleason. A representative of a manufacturing institution of Detroit made a brief state- ment regarding his implement plant which he desires to locate here. He said that if 85,000 worth of stock was subscribed and 2,000 feet of floor rooom furnished he would locate here. A business manager was secured to put in $2,500 and take a Partner‘- interest. The chair was authorized to appoint a special committee from the committee on manufactures to canvass for rllclng the remaining #2,500 worth of stock. The chair appointed Messrs.
