ALMOST DROWNED Last evening q
party of four or five men went up the
river to have q swim. At the point Sc
lected the river makes short curve,
and is quite shallow for some distance
from one of the banks, while on the
other side it is deep, with strong I'M
der-current. One of the bathers, who
is not an expert swimmer, suddenly
found himself beyond his depth, hav-
ing ventured step too far toward the
other side, and disappeared. He arose
some distance down the stream. and
his struggles attracted the attention OF
the others, who fastened to assist him,
and arrived just in time to save him
from being drowned. Those who are
not good swimmers should beware of
the treacherous undertow in the bends
of the river while bathing, and not ven
ture beyond their depth.

the doctor was being examined recess
hour arrived, and the witness utilized
the interim by preparing new dia-
gram of the locality of the murder.
Rover looked on with intense interest,
and at the completion of the diagram
he expressed satisfaction at the result,
and offered several valuable sugges-
tons, which the witness awaited him
self of.
The doctor testified that he paced
down the ravine in the direction from
where Rover said he saw the murder
committed, eighty steps, when, upon
turning, in standing posture he could
inst see the top of the cabin. At one
hundred PAGES lie could still see the
cabin by rising upon his toes. He con-
tinued to pace until he was at dis
lance of about two hundred yalds
when, upon trial. he discovered that he
could not see the camp at all. The
witness was not cross examined.
Coroner Oppenheim was recalled and
District Attorney Grass got from him
Sharp's handbook aud offered it in
evidence. Counsel for the defense OBJ
jected, and the objection was sustain
ed. The State rested.
The first witness called for the de-
Tense was james Gould, who testified
that he did not sell Rover the boots
which made the tracks discovered near
where the remains were found.
J. H. McAllister swore that he sold
Rover pair of boots last spring. but
he could not particularly describe
them, though he thought they were
No. Fights.
Sheriff Nash and Deputy Hayes were
also sworn upon the question of the
appearance of the boots. Neither of
them knew whether the boots had tap
soles or not. The soles of the boots
were produced in Court and Deputy
Sheriff Hayes testified that the prison
er told him he had cut them off for the
reason that they were loose and caused
him much inconvenience. They had
been given him by defendant, who
wished them preserved. as there had
been much talk about tracks. The
soles were apparently of No. 8 size,
and their length and the manner in
which they were cut indicated that they
had been part of full length soles.
At the close of the examination of
the witness counsel for the defense
moved for an adjournment of Court
until II A. NJ. to-day, as he expected
the arrival of witnesses on the morn
ing train from the west.
The jury looked rs if they had ac-
cepted the situation and became recon-
ciled to confinement. The usual oath
was administered to Sheriff Nash and
Deputy Hayes, who were directed to
give them, if desirable, a little out
door exercise, and at 2:20 p. n. the
Court adjourned until IL A. II. to-day.
As the defense have but few wit
nesses, it is thought the evidence will
all be in to-day. The arguments of
counsel will probably occupy all of one
day, and it is not improbable that the
case will be submitted to the jury some
time tomorrow.

the Rover case is about all in. District
Attorney Grass will open the argument
for the prosecution this evening, NJ. S.
Bonnifield for the defense at 10 a. M.
tomorrow, and Judge Leonard will
close for the prosecution tomorrow
afternoon.

Hor.-Yesterday was hot in the SUI
perlative degree. Everybody was COM
planning of the heat, and pronounced it
the frying day of the season. The
mercury went up to 1913 in the shade at
the depot, and to 90 in Stevens drug
store, which is represented as being the
coolest place in town. A thermometer
which hangs in the bar-room at the La
fayettc Hotel was taken out in the sun,
and the quicksilver rose to the top of
the register-135 degrees-almost in
stantly, and would have climbed foot
or two higher if it had had an oppor-
tunity.
