"Our gentlemen members are delighted with their positions as home artists and when tbey once take ud the work the never think for a moment of dropping it. We do not ask our home artists to work ten boars a dav, nor in fact do we ask them to work very hard at all. JV11 we ask of them is to execute the work which we send them, and for which we Dav cash as soon as it is finished. "Please write us immediately as to your decision in regard to the matter, as it is quite important that every number should te taken. I feel safe in saying mar. you win never regret rxcoming our home artist, and you are now in a posi tion which is greatlr coveted, and eaiterlv sought for by those who are trying to learn the use of the shading pen. -write me Dy return mail, and I trust yon will send in your order with your letter.

I also received the other lot of 100 text sheets which 1 will complete and tend back as soon as possible. 1 am more than satisfied with the associa tion. You have fulfilled your contract to the letter, and I was surprised to find how soon I received woik from you. 1 have written and answeted every ad. for good writers that I ever read, and I 1 believe yon are the only firm iu Amer ica that actually employ writers to write at home.

The Cane Given to the Jury Lute In the Afternoon, and a Verdict Rendered at One O'clock Today-The Boyn Crime. Billy McDaniel and Henry Webb, col ored, have been found guilty by a jury of 12 men good and true of the crime ol murder in the first degree, the penalty of which is death. The case against these boys, for such they are, neither being over 19 years of age, was given to the jury in the Crimi nal court at 4:15 yesterday afternoon after the closing speech had been made by Solicitor Carter, and Judge Jones had delivered the charge. At 9:30 this morning the jury had not agreed and the court proceeded with other business. A large crowd remained in the court room to await the verdict, but it was not until nearly 1 o'clock that the twelve agreed. Thev entered the room and in reply to the question if tney naa agreed answered in the affirm ative. Through W. B. Clayton, its forman, the jury made answer: "Guilty of murder in the first degree." The counsel for the defence demanded that the jury be polled. This was done, and each juror as called gave the same answer. Judge Tones recalled the iurv as it was leaving the box and started to speak of tne righteousness or the verdict, when Attorney Chas. A. Webb interposed an objection, saying that if a new trial were granted the words of the court might prejudice the case, and judge Jones there upon withdrew the remarks. A motion for a new trial was made, and the noon recess was taken. On the night of August 20 McDaniil and Webb went to the house of Hannah Winters, colored, in Happy Hollow. In the house was Charley Erwin, a colored lad who had apparently displaced Mc Daniel in the affections of the Winters woman. Webb called Erwin to the door and as the boy responded McDaniel tired twice at him. Erwin started for the rear door and McDaniel fired two more shots. Erwin fell out of the door and rolled almost into the branch which runs in the rear of the bouse. Erwin died almost instantly. Webb and McDaniel were captured a few hours after the crime was committed, at Biltmore. In the case of A. F. Causey, who re cently injured his wife near Fairview, the defendant s bond was reduced bv judge Jones to $500.

New York, Oct. 31. The Hill men are as confident as ever, referring with satis faction to the personal fight their candi date Is making and to the enthusiasm with which he is being received by bis supporters. Most of them, however, do not seek to conceal their disappointment or anger that bis candidacy has not re ceived open and active encouragement from the national administration. The Republicans abate none of their claim, and insist that, with the general Repub lican tendency this year and the Demo cratic defection from Hill, the latter will be snowed under. There has been but little betting so far in the campaign, but the representa tives of wagers at the stock exchange and elsewhere show odds sn Morton, not infrequently of two one. Smaller odds are given on Strong against Grant, the perfection of the Tammany organization throughout the city making ti e supporters of the com mittee of 70 rather cautious about risk ing their money, however much they an ticipate a great anti-Tammany uprising. The Hill Democrats are pleased by the announcement that Speaker Crisp of the Mouse ol Representatives, has cancelled engagements in order to arjeak in this city or Brooklyn. They were also much pleased by a letter far Hill from Chaun cey F. Black, chairman of the national league of Democratic clubs. The fact that Col. Strong made brief speeches at a number of meetings this afternoon in the downtown eastside districts is re garded with much favor by the practical politicians woo are ainea witn tne com mittee of seventy, as they think it will have a good effect on a class of voters who always wish to see their candidate and know something of his personality.
