by every manufacturing man in the east

On the other hand there are many who
never will believe Lizzie guilty. But,
unfortunately, it must be said that the
reasoning of most of them is based on
sentiment or sympathy rather than with
any view to the facts or reality. ''She
could not do it to her own father" says
one. sit was the wild eyed man that

Meanwhile, Lizzie Borden eats, sleeps

RACQUET AND BALL.
Close of the Bay Point Tennis Tourna-
ment Yesterday.
Especial to the Press.1


RocKLAND, August 30.-The Bay
Point tennis tournament closed today,
with a fairly interesting exhibition of
singles. The winners of the prize cups
were Thomas Andrews and Edward Mer-
rill of Boston and Alfred Black and
Walter Spear of Rockland. In the semi
finals today, Andrews beat Simonton 10
s, remaining sets being defaulted. Nor
rill beat Frank Amsden 81 and 81.
Russell beat Henry Amsden GA and go.
In the finals, Merrill beat Russell 6-3 and
GA. Andrews beat Merrill 6-3 and 81.
The concluding series between Andrews
and Merrill had been awaited with a
great deal of anxiety. The contestants
are both Boston men and experts at the
art. During the past summer there has
been a spirited friendly rivalry between
the two, each winning an equal number
of games. Today, however, Andrews
had walk-over, his opponent not being
in it from the start. In the consultations,
which were also played today. Black
beat Lane 1913 and rs, Spear beat Fales
SO and 60, Wardwell beat Sands 4-6, go
and so. In the consolation finals, Black
beat Wardwell 6-3 and 6-3, Black beat
Spear 81 and 81, Spear beat Wardwell
81 and go. Tomorrow begins the annual

she never went into any drug store in
New Bedford to inquire for prussia acid.
She never went into any drug
store for any such thing. She
gave the dress she wore
the morning, of the tragedy to the, Off
GERS. She wore the shoes about TWO or
three days.
Lizzie said that about two weeks be-
fore the tragedy she heard OF saw some
body run down the steps and away, she
saw something similar about the house
last winter. When she first saw the form
recently it was on the back steps and ran
towards the barn. Last winter she saw

Mrs. Churchill was asked what Bridget
said about the note, whether Brldget
said it came from Lizzie or Mrs. Borden.
The answer was that Bridget didn't say
who told her about the note.
Mr.. Adams asked that the court strike
out all that portion of the evidence re-
lating to prussic acid. The court decid-
ed for the plaintiff.
The first witness for the defendent was
DIR. S. w. Bowen. He related the partl-
culars of his being called to the Borden
house after the tragedy. He went
directly to the side door of the Borden
house where he met Miss Lizzie. The
witnest was excited because the message
was given to him in such a manner as to
excite him. Lizzie said,
rr:r1.1
he has been stabbed" In reply to a
question as to what was the matter, she
said she had seen nobody nor heard any
body. The witness examined Mr.. Borden
and said s'Mr. Borden has been murder
ed" He described the position
of the body and the posi-
ton of the body of Mrs. Borden.
Mrs. Borden called on the witness ear
ly Wednesday morning. She said she
was afraid she had been pursued, and
she was frightened. While she was
there she came near vomiting. She said
Mr.. Borden and herself were sick the
night before, between and II, and that
Miss Lizzie had been sick about mid
night. The witness contradicted himself
somewhat from what he said at the in
quest. The district attorney remarked
that he was undoubtedly somewhat
misled because of the excitement OF the
moment, and this was sort of secon-
Diary revivifying of his recollections.
An adjournment was made until 10
o'clock tomorrow, the defence desiring a
conference before going any further.

with broad roll of white, confined with
bands of gold and edged with gilt fringe,
draped the drivers seat and fell in
graceful folds over the front. The mid

Farmers Alliance Assessed.

The following special appeared in
Mondays Minneapolis Tribune:
At the late meeting of the state
Farmers Alliance in Huron, it was
found that 6heir official organ. the
Ruralist, was in debt some 81 400 or
more. To cancel this it was decided
that fifteen cents should be appropri-
ated from the membership tee of one
dollar, to that purpose. 1t is the
rule that every person becoming
member OF the Alliance shall also be a
subscriber to the Ruralist, the sub.
scription-fifty cents-comlng out of
the dollar paid as membership fee.
The action OF the annual meeting in
approprlating an additional fifteen
cents is pretty severely criticised by
some of the Alliance members,
prompted doubtless from knowledge
that not long after the Alliance adj
journed the Ruralist company, in.
stead of liquidating it's debts, pur-
chased additional machinery and ma
terial at a cost Of as much as will be
received from the additional levy.

A Terrific Blizzard. .

Kansas City, Jan. Ia terrific
blizzard is raging in Kansas and north
western Missouri today. 1t began
last night with a heavy rain and thun-
der storm. About midnight the
weather began to get cold, g. sleet
storm set in and crippled the telegraph
and telephone service. This morning
it began to snow, drifting badly along
the lines of all directions. Trains
from Chicago due early today are all
from three to five hours late. and
western trains are in still worse
plight. At noon the storm continues.
The storm is the most severe of the
winter.
The storm ceased here about noon
and advices from Kansas and Missou-
ri state that it ceased showing about
the same time in those states. Con-
siderable snow fell in some localities.
The storm did little or no damage.
On the contrary, it benefited the
winter wheat crop.

The Sugar Beet.

Prof. Jas. H. Shepard returned
Saturday from Huron and Aberdeen
where he had been to look up the su-
gar beet question-to see what had
been done-what was doing, and what
is needed TO be done in the way of
future experiments. The professor
states that not only at Huron but at
Aberdeen the point OF experiment"
was passed. The people who had had
the matter in hand were fully satisfied
that sugar beets could be not only
successfully grown, but grown with
profit. All that remained to be done
was to get a factory and enough far
mers to grow the beet to insure it's
successful operation. This matter
was being pushed in Brown county
with every assurance of success. Mr..
Shepard has taken a great interest in
these experiments and for several
months past has been engaged in the
analysis OF sugar beets from all parts
OF the the state. He has prepared an
exhaustive report of his analysis and
experiments embracing some fifty or
more pages in bulletin form, which
will be not only interesting, but of
great value in future developments OF
the industry. The book is now in
press and will be issued some time
about the first of February and
scattered broadcast over the state.
As an authority on chemical ANALYSIS
Prof. Shepard stands second to
none in the United States. His works
on chemistry are standard and used
in all leading educational institutions.
The largest publishing house in Bos-
ton submits all their manuscript in
this line to him, using his Judgement
as to it's worth before putting it to
press. This OF itself should be deemed
an honor to our state agriculture
interests to know that we have q
man so well qualified to conduct
the important branch of chemistry.
