Brotvn, of Tennessee, gained case which gives him CAXFIKLD'S COXFESSIOX. CHARLOTTE, Feb. C. inhuman murderer of little Nellie Griffin, escaped the lynchers' rope by pleading guilty and 'receiving the sentence of life imprisonment. In less than twenty-four hours after he was captured he was in the State penitentiary at Jackson.

Justice has been swift in his case, but in the opinion of the em-aged people she has been far too merciful. The murderer received his sentence in stolid silence. His watery hluc eyes became a trifle more watery than usual, and his hand clasped and unclasped nervously, but that was all. The remains of the murdered girl were taken back to Coldwater Tuesday by Superintendent Newkirk and laid to rest near the school. The murderer hegan his life sentence behind the State prison walls almost as soon as the body of his victim, was lowered into the grave.

After being placed in the jail here Monday night Canfield weakened and told the following story: "My name is Russell CanSeld. I am 55 years old. Last Tueiday I went from Dimorr- dale to Jonesville. I bought a round-trip'ticket From Jonesvtlle I went to Coldwater and knocked about there for awWlo. Then I went up to the State School for Waifs and Neglected Children.

I saw the superintendent, Mr. Newkirk. I told him I was from Parma and that rnj name was Hendershot. I told him I wanted a girl to work on the -farm. He said he, had such a one, and I wont to the depot.

Newkirk sent the girl down to the depot utter. I had not seen her before. I had told Newkirk that I would guarantee her a good home. I took her and went to Jonesvillo Wednesday. From Jocesrille I weat to Dimondale 1 the same day.

After we left the train at Dimondale we took the road lor my home, a mile from Dimondale. I worked for C. L. Harrison. We traveled the together until we struck the woods that belong to Ed Beck- vrith.

We went through the woods to the road known as tbe Water Street road. We went east on that road to the county line.

I want to say one thing right here: I did the girl no violence.

Then we sat down on a I did not know what to do, and then sha began to cry. That puzzled me more than ever. I don't know what came over me. I must have lost my head. I threw her on tbe ground, and putting one hand on her throat 1 choked her to death.

She made no outcry. I then undressed her and drew her body to the Ice and threw it in the hole in the ice wiiere It was found. Thla was-after o'clock.

A bill intended to restrict cigarette-smoking was passed hy the House.

In the Senate a bill to establish town school boards, consisting of two men and one 1 woman, to be elected by the people, was defeated. It is the.

evidentydetermination of the Indiana Legislature to make trouble for the railroads. Besides the bills proposing to more than double the State tax assessments on railroad property 'and reduce passenger fares to two cents a mile several other measures increasing their responsibilities and reducing their profits have heen introduced and there are now more than a dozen measures for. their regulation pending, all of which have the support of the farmer and labor element and are almost sure to pass. Three were added Tuesday, one of which hroadens the liability of companies 1 to employes.

A Ringleaders TTO1 Be Shot. OPOBT'O, Feb. is now reported that fifty persons were killed and 200 injured in the fight following the revolt of the garrison here against the Government on Saturday last. By a decree issued in Lisbon it is announced that all crimes connected with the rising in this city come under the jurisdiction of the military tribunals. This' is here interpreted to mean that all the civilians as well as the soldiers connected revolt will be tried by martial law and that the ringleaders will probably be shot.

The Harrison family, for whom he worked, says that Canfield's only weakness was a fondness for the society of young girls. This characteristic Va's the a good many jokes on him, which helieemed to take good-natured- ly.

He has. been married twice, both wives having left him. that he had an ambition to make one more attempt to draw a prize in the matrimonial lottery, and that he confided this intention to a few people in -the neighborhood, who regarded it as a good joke, considering his unfortunate experiences. Sensitiveness to the jokes of his neighbors is what caused him to make his last and fatal attempt to seciire a wife. By' some means he hit upon the plan of adopting a girl and then after she had grown to a sufficient age of marrying her and thus put a stop to the annov- ance of neighborhood gossip concerning' his unsuccessful endeavors to a wife.

Upon visiting the State school at Coldwater he selected the oldest girl in the school, and by his false tions he secured control of Nellie.
