Clays vi lie which has added so many murders to the criminal history of Paris Williams and Josie Tillman who ha1 been keeping company since January were standing in a doorway talking when some persou the other side of the street called to the girl to come over She left Williams who called to her as rtbe ieac ed h middle of the ttreet come back to him In askiug her to stead of coming back she started to run when Williams pulled his pistol and tired thrte shots at her One of the bullets took effect entering her back at the right aide passing through her liver and out her breast The wounded girl died the next afternoon Thekilliug caused tbe greatest excitement in the village where so many inyst- - ions crimes have been committed and so few ferreted out and the criminals captured Immediately after tbe killing Williams disappeared - At two oclock on tbe same afternoon a warrant for his ar rest was issued and Deputy Sheriff W W Mitchell Constable Joe Williams ana Officer George Hill started in pursuit of tbe murderer He was traced to Lloyd Asbnrsts farm near this city where tbey arrested him just one hour after the warrant was issued He was in a cornfield when apprehended by tbe officers and had on his person a revolver with every chamber loaded but he made no effort to use it when be saw tbe ¬ ¬ mh iS 311 ov d JoMe Tillman I was on the table at Sam Grafforts grocery in

am he said He thread ed a flue cambric needle by candle light The efforts of the minister ytsterday had a marked effect ou him He was perfectly resigned to his late and said that be freely forgave all his enemies He wished And wished their forgivehes to meet Josie Tillman in Heaven and knew tbat she has already forgiven bim for the great wrong he had done her He was particularly proud of the fact that be had kept his nerve up and said it was his intention to die game When asked what he desired tor breakfast he said be did not care Mrs Ashbrook furnished him with a broiled quail and coffee etc and he ate it with evident relish Early this morning Mr Kieer received he following commnui atiou from Williams which was bis last on earth Mr Ki6er remember me as long as This is rrom me one you nave

of any person ever executed in the State The execution was the most successful one ever had in the State The scaffold was erected in the South- ¬ western side of the jail yard near the railroad bridge The spectators were admitted by gatekeeper Joe Williams upon the presentation of the black bordered card if ad- ¬ ¬ ¬ mission k- ULAJ - Williams began yesterday to make preparations for the execution He was shaved by Forrest Lang The doomed man wore a plain black suit furnished James The coffin was by Parker by undertaker G W Davis furnished At four oclock yesterday afternoon Williams was visited by Rev Webster and four deacons of the colored Baptist Church who prayed and sang with him Williams said that he had made his peace with his Maker and that he was ready to die To a News reporter Williams said that he knew the hour and would not take any stimulent to nerve himself for the terrible ordeal During the religious services a noisy crowd laughed and joked elow the window of the death cell and called to the prisoner to get a glimpse of him To a News reporter Williams said that he did not want hie mother who lives in Mississippi to know how be died His dream her is alive but does not liye in Paris doing and he said he had some cows to sell and we would make about 75 or 80 I told him I never did anything like that but be insisted on me going with him and I finally went with him and we took them te Georgetown and sold them for 45 and went to Lexington where we divided the money If it hadnt been for him I wouldnt be where I am to day in the Paris jail condemned to be hung I bought my gun in Lexington I killed Josie Tillman but I didnt go to do it It wasnt my intention to kill her but to scare her and make her come back to me I do not believe I would have shot her if she had stood still but she wheeled to run and that was the shot The cause of her getting evidence that was given against me I There could not blame the jurymen of perjuring done on the stand was lots if it was only known There was a great deal of malace against me in my case and at that they wont make any great fortune for it All I can say is that I hope them all well in the fntre The reason a great many swore to lies theywere afraid of Capt Tillman as and he is a great bully in Claytville thev thought he would fix it with them I think I deserve to be punished but not so severe I only wish that Mr Bradley will change my sentence to life in the penitentiary and then I will have a chance to change my ways and get repentance as I have been a sinner in my past days I must say that Mrs Ashbrook and her tnrnkev Mr A M Kiser have treated me like I was white and I appreciate it My favorite among the prisoners is Mr Forest Lang He has treated me like a brother There wasnt anything be had that

composed of two thin strips of copper which were capped or hollow ed and then brought together edge to edge with the rounded sides out thus giving strength as well as lightness The aluminium clock pointers are made just in the same way as the copper ones but they possess the merit of being twice as light aud are far easier to balance It isnt unusual on large clocks to see projecting from the base of the long pointer and in line with it a rod with a ball at the end this rod be ing perhaps a third as long as the big pointer This rod and ball act as a counterweight for the big pointer which without a counterweight would in its movement around the dial bear unevenly upon the arbor or shaft which carries it On great clocks and often on big timepieces indoors this counterpoise is placed inside the dial out of sight on the arbor The heavier the pointer the greater the weight required in the counterpoise the greater the weight the more friction on the arbor and the more friction the
