"Yes; he spoke of the bluff near Lake
Calhoun"
Told by PawnbrOker.
Simon Gittleson, pawnbroker, told
of loaning Harry $170 on three diamond
rings that had figured in the testimony.
While that transaction was being con-
Guided, Harry had FLASHED roll" the
amount of money IN which Gittleson
could not determine. Harry often came
to him for 'lucky money!" to use as a
stake in gambling.
Mrs. Emma Goodale, trance me-
dunn doing business now under the
cognomen of Nine. Peterson, was an in
teresting witness. Harry had come to
her alone and asked her to tell Miss
Cling when that lady should call, that
she would win at gambling. She de-
INJURED, but he told her if she would do
as he asked, she would never lack for
money. Against the advice of her hus-
band, she consented to do as Harry asked.
Accordingly, when Miss Cling came
with Harry, she told her that she would
be very lucky at cards for three or four
days, and then would lose if she played.
The next day Harry came and told her
that ON the strength of her advice Miss
Cling had let him have $3.50 to go to Chi
cago and gamble with. Harry had told
her of other amounts he had secured
$1,375. Mr.. Erwin asked her
if she knew what she said
or did while in her frances,
She replied that she did not. He pro-
ceeded to ask some other questions about
the science of clairvoyance, but they
were shut out by the states objections.
She denied being acquainted with Adry,
but knew the father of the boys.
Was Lucky at Faro.
Patsy Clarity, well known local
faro dealer, threw some light on Harry
Hayward's gambling operat ons in Min
had met him on the street, and, COM
planning that the limit was too low in
Minneapolis gambling houses, proposed
a trip to Chicago where it was higher.
Clarity agreed to go if Hayward would
furnish the transportation. He was
given twenty-dollar bill to get his
tickets. When they arrived in Chicago,
they found everything was shut up.
Clarity intended to return the next day,
but missed his train, and came on the
second day. He found Harry on the
train.
Flashed a Roll.
They talked of Monte Carlo and other
gambling topics, and then Harry had
shown him a large package Of money in
his coat pocket, just flash of it, asking
if he wouldn't like some of it. Clarity
admitted that he played and dealt faro
at a local house. Harry was a very
lucky player he said, and some times
the gambling houses had to reduce his
Init. He had won as much as 1850
at sitting. Mr.. Erwin asked him how
much Harry had won in the past year,
but further evidence in this direction
was shut off by objection.
The principal object of Garrity's tes-
timony was to show that Harry re-
turned from Chicago on Nov. 6, as Adry
had testified, and that he brought Miss
Ging's money with him, after telegraph
ing her that it had all been lost.

George Moulton, treasurer of the
Farmers and Mechanics Savings bank,
was called to the stand, identified Miss
Ging's bank book and testified briefly to
her business affairs.

that Miss Cling secured box in the
vaults on Nov. "a.
Frank J. Hallow, bookkeeper of the
| First National bank, where Miss Cling
had an account, was called and pre-
scented a transcript of the entries of de-
positS and Withdrawals on her account
from Aug. 1 till its close.
More Damaging Evidence.
Mrs. Lillian Hazelton, all intimate
friend of Miss Ging's, was here intro
duced. She had met Miss Cling at the
silk counter at Hale & Thomas dry
goods store, Dec 3, at 4:35. Miss Cling
was going to make dress for Mrs
Hazleton. The two left the store a
about o'clock. The prosecution sough
to show by Mrs. Hazelton that Mis-
Cling had made statement to her thai

At this point Blixt was again put OF
the stand and asked if he did not sd,
in the presence of Miss Wachler tina
he and Adry had put up a job to xii
Miss Cling and blame Harry if caught
Blixt denied this, but it is understood
that Miss Wachler will swear that h.
did.

till $3.50 a. m.
