There is a terrible gang of moon light distillers in the region where ne was'killed. Detective Kfllebrne disap peared in that same region about two years ago. Both of his ears were cut off and sent to parties in this county, oue of whom was Mr. Kennedy. II will take fine detective work to break np this gang, as they are well organized. If the-governor will offer a liberal're ward for the perpetrotors ot the crime they may be captured. The citizens have offered a reward of -fSOTfor the guilty parties.
