blind with rage at seeing DIR. Garrison
that he forgot all about the horse, and
did not care what became OF 1t.
He took up the question OF whether
or not DR.. Baird's overcoat was button
ed up to the chin, and had big, heavy,
clumsy gloves on. As to the coat, he
said that whatever might be true OF the
coat below the bullet hole, 1t was not
buttoned up to the chin above 1t, else
the holes would not have been through
both sides of the lapel. The lapel was
turned back. He put on the right hand
glove, and took DR.. Baird'S revolver,
and showed the jury he could shoot the
pistol as fast and as easily with the
glove on, as with it off.
He took up the second shot, and said
there wasn't any very clear proof that
the second shot struck where the State
said it did. True, DR.. Wilson said so,
but what did DR.. Wilson know about il?
IF the ball had struck in front, would
not the glass OF the Spectacles been
knocked out just the same, and would
not the ball have taken the same
course? The defendant said he fired
the two Shots quickly, and he was cor
rOborated in that by all the witnesses.
DIR. Garrison said DR.. Baird turned
around when he fired the second shot,
aud when he saw he was going away
and his life was no longer in danger, he
went down the street. "And yet they
would have you believe that this muir
derer, with three shots still in his pis-
tol, wanted to make sure Of his victim.
Why did he not fire the other three
shots into him?"
He thought all the facts went to show
that DR.. Garrison did not know that he
had hit DR.. Baird for hours afterwards.
If ever man tells the truth, it was
when he talks to his lawyer, and he
did not know the effects of his shots
until told of the fact by Col. Arnett,
when he said: II am sorry, but | could
not help it,"
After an eulogy of the defendant, and
the expression of the belief that DR..
Garrison was one of the most unfortunate
men alive, he said ne thought DR.. Baird
had his revolver in his mind when he
said he'd blow his head off, )" and that
DR.. Baird had probably made an effort
to get it out, and had failed.

The Most Dangerous of Modern Disorders
Clearly Defned-Pheumonia and What
Causes 1t.
There has been & great mistake as to what
pneumouia really is. People, and even some
physicians, have called IL dangerous disease
Pneumonia is always "a after effect II the sys-
TEN is ruu down. weakened, debilitated, II the
life is at low ebb, tle lungs may hll up and
the person die suddenly, aud II is called pneu'
mona when the body was strong, vigorous and
healthy. Ii comes upon one when weakened
by grip, by severe cola or overwork and gen
orally weakened condition Such being the
case. how can This dreadful trouble known 80
pneumonia be prevented or warded on: Mani
testify by strengthening and fottifying the
body by having the health and strength so
secure that pneumonia will not attack, or II II
should, can easily be Narded on. This can De
done by careful living, careful diet and moo. .
crate use OF pure stnulant. To gently assist
nature q stimulant is required, something thst
adds 10 the life and vigof. Nothing for thl )
purpose can equal pnre whiskey, and 1t should
be borne in mind that the only pure and medl-
cinal whisEey which hss received the unquall-
fed Endorsement OF physicians and scientists Is
Dufys Pure Malt. Its no ordinary whiskey,
bur possesses properties known 10 no other ar

and has saved the liveI OF thousands OF people.

only whiskey which can accomplish this ana

never engage in fights or melees Of that
sort.
The Court here stopped the contro-
versy, which WAS getting exciting, ana
Col. Arnett resumed his argument oy
referring to the evidence OF Mr.. Cart
right, and saying If it was true defend
ant purchased the cartridges OF Mr.
Busby, as there was no doubt he had,
there was no earthly use Of his buying
more from Mr.. Cartright.
He then passed TO consideration OF
the element of self-defense, said there
could be no doubt of the fact, and added
that 'if DIR. Garrison believed, at that
supreme moment, that his life was IN
danger, or that he was in danger OF
great bodily harm, and the clrcum-
stances justified that belief, in reason
able man, he was entitled TO verdict
of acquittal upon the grounds OF sell
defense"
The Colonel restated this proposition
in two or three different forms, and then
said if the jury found that 10 be the
situation, il was their sworn and bound
ed duty TO return a verdict OF acquittaI.
The Colonel grew truly eloquent as
ne dwelt upon the wrongs and insults
heaped upon the head of his client, and
the Court room grew as silent as a
tomb, although densely filed, as he
proceeded, with a rich vocabulary and
impassioned voice, TO recite the long
suffering OF DR.. Garrison and his never
ending trials, the speaker going over,
one by one, the episodes in evidence Tor
the defense as to epithets. He called
attention especially to the fact that DR..
Garrison had met DR.. Baird twice, lace
to face, yet DR.. Garrison had made no
attempt TO carry out the murderous de-
sire which had been attributed TO MIN,
but the first time they met after the
expression OF DR.. Baird on Main street:
.'I'H make him look at me-" DR.. Baird
tried to carry his threat into execution,
and the awful event had iol-
lowed. He said it had finally be-
come evident to DR.. Baird that
DR.. Garrison had schooled himself to
bear the insults in spirit OF reSigna-
ton. for the sake of his wife and family
and despairing of provoking him by a
longer use of that species OF warfare,
he had, on March 18th, resorted TO other
means. "Dr. Baird had re-
solved that the affair in the gas office
should not end; he'd provoke him; he'd
make him look at him; he'd make hi m
strike him and then he'd end it all
with the pistol. He intended to frenzy
him, and then to dispatch him with the
pistol"
Col. Arnett closed at 4:52, by asking
for the discharge OF the defendant upon
the ground of self-defense.

A LARGE AUDIENCE IN THE AFTERNOON.

There was very large audience
present in the Court room when Col.
Arnett arose, at twenty-five minutes OF
three o'clock, to begin his address to
the jury. There were quite number
OF ladies in the audience-more, in fact,
than during all the previous days of the
trial combined. Among those in the
Court room, at the opening, were State
Superintendent of Schools B. 5. Nor
gan, Judge John A. Campbell, and the
father and brothers of the defendant.
Mrs. Garrison came in at half-past two,
accompanied by two ladies, and took a
seat by her husbands side. The Court
and counsel consulted moment over
instructions, and then Col. Arnett took
the floor for the closing speech by the
defense.
