Il don't remember anything"
Ibid you hear about the shooting ?''

Il don't remem Der anything"
did you hear about the shooting?"
''No, sir"
"You have never heard about Craig
shooting anyone?"
when he was arrested we heard all
about it. Craig came into the yard
where l was washing dishes and asked
me if had a piatol and loaned him
one." [Witnessi ihereupon identified one
of the exhibits.
Under cross-examination the witness
failed to identify the pistol by any mark
Oh indicate any way by which it might
be distinguished from thousands of 9TH
ers of the same calibre and make.
When Mrs. Emily Snyder, Miss
Hunter before her marriage, took the
stand, ripple of interest went around.
She said: II am q daughter OF Asa
Hunter. l know the defendant. and re-
member Mrs. Craig having gone with
San Francisco in May some time of this
year. They returned on or about the
30th. l had a conversation during their
absence with defendant. He wanted to
know if Gap" or George had any feel
ing against him. He said that eome-
thing would happen sure before it would
all end. He also said that when they
returned from San francisco il they in
terfered with him when he went to see
the children he would put hole through
them."
Cross-examined-"Ii inferred that he
applied the remark to the whole family.
He didn't know, as q matter OF fact,
whether they had any feeling against
him or not"
Didn't you cay it was shame the
way they were treating him?" queried
counsel for the defense.
mo. sir; did not"
Didn't he cell you that you could
have the sewing machine that Mrs.
Craig had refused to you, saying that 1t
belonged to the defendant?"
Eyes, SIR"
"And you told him to have q conver-
sation with his wife ON that point?"
"Yes, sir"
"Yoa never heard him say aught
against his wife, did you?"
mo. sir"
Attorney Guthrie had done 90 we'll
with the witness that he took further
step and moved that the evidence of
witness relating to the threat of defend.
ant to put e hole through certain of the
family be stricken out.
The motion was denied quicker than
it was made.
Jesse d. Hunter was next called. He
stated that the place of shooting was
the birthplace of George, Emily and
himself. He saw Craig half to three
quarters of mile from where the.
shooting took place. on the same day.
Craig was in buggy going north. He
was present on one occasion before the
family went north, and when notable
conversation took place between his
mother and the defendant relative to
the latter ceasing his visits to the ranch.
Objection was made to the introduc.
ton OF the matter of the conversation
as the time was too remote from the time
of the shooting, having taken place
some weeks before. The objection hav-
ing been overruled witness said: "She
told him he had no right at the ranch,
and that if he didn't get into his buggy
and leave she'd horsewnip him."
The next witness was James Joseph

"And so could many men Mwhen

"You don't speak from personal ex-
perience. do you?" sententiously in
quired Attorney Gage.
Unabashedlv Attorney Guthrie did
not deny the soft impeachment, for he
said: Yes; from personal experience" :"
A laugh, probably of sympathy,
moved the spectators. but Judge Smit h
sternly rebuked the disturbers and an.
nounced his intention OF stopping
demonstrations OF any kind.
On redirect examination witness was
asked:
knowing q mans life may depend
on what you say, are you certain and
positive as TO what Craig said to you? ?"
II am"
"And he was no, drunk?"
He was not staggering drunk, but he
was man that could drink lot with
out showing it. He knew just as well
ae we do what he was doing"
D. Gornelli next took the stand. He
was rather curious with ess, having but
slight knowledge OF English. On july
25th he lived at $50 Main street and was
engaged as bartender and in helping to
cook for man named Georges.

set a lot of tubs on a back
gallery, over the hill and back it
turned and then continued out to-
ward the Olmos, where it was af-
