IKE LOW DISCHARGED.

     Ike Low, the negro who was accused of the murder of McDonald and his wife down the Brazos river more than two years ago, and who was convicted by a jury and given the death sentence, is a free man. He was liberated yesterday and at once left the city. His case attracted much attention, and it looked at one time as though he would pay the death penalty, but the court of criminal appeals of Texas reversed the case and stated in the opinion that unless additional evidence could be had Low should not be convicted. - Waco Times-Herald.
