put in Erwin. But the state pro-
tested that it was material, as it must
trace BliXt all the way until he reached
home. The court decided that the tes-
timony was allowable, and Blixt went
on.
az talked with the switchman at the
TWenty-ninth street crossing and walk
ed on, taking the car at Twenty-sev-
enth and Lyndale. l rode down town
and got a transfer to the Bloomington
line and rode out to Franklin, where
I went to see friend, Carl Bloom.
After l had seen Bloom, went back

nue., where 1 met man named John

drank two small glasses of beer. L
was sick and could not drink any more.
NV watch didn't work good and L took
it across the street to have 1t fixed and
got a check for it. Then 1 went up to
Hennepin avenue, fand out to the
Ozark
Blixt could not tell what time it was
when he returned home, but thought 1t
was about $50 He produced the
check which he got for the watch
when it was left for repair and 1den-
titled it and it was introduced In evil
dence. The place where he left the
watch was the store of JACOBS q son.
and it was brought out that the con-
Germ has a Swedish clerk.
"What did you do when you returned

Hold on there began Erwin, but
BliXt put in
Eyes, that's right. 1 went to Harry $
room. Both doors were to be open and
I was to take the revolver and change

Did you do it?'
eyes, 1 did it.
"Where?"
'In Harry's bathroom.
Here BliXt told how ne empt1ed the
revolver and put in new caftrloges'
Several old shells were introduced,
and Detective Howard took the re-
volver out of his pocket. Hayward
took it and opened it. 1t was IN
troduced in evidence and marked Ex-
hibit I. Blixt at first was not sure OF
the revolver, but finally identifled II
by the cartridge extractor underneath.
He said he had cleaned it twice before.
Where was Harry's room?' asked
Mr.. Nye.
Blixt located the room by the plan
Of the Ozark, which is now part OF the
evidence.
Erwin made a little fuss because
in opening the revolver, had
hurt his hand and got little blood on
the revolver. The court suggested
that it would be we'll to handle the re-
volyer as little as possible. In re-
sponse to more questions, Blixt said:
"After Harry came back from the |
theater he came down to my room. |
[ don't know the time. He asked me |
if [ knew how the meter leaked. L |
did not answer Then he nodded to |
me and l nodded in answer. did not |
say anything and he went away
At this point the court adjourned for |
the noon recess.
At o'clock Blixt was again put on |
the stand and asked about the letters |
which Hayward had shown him.
''Do you remember anything else that |
was said that you had forgotten?
Eyes, sir, remember he told me that |
he told Miss Cling to tell Goosman not |
to let him know that she was going to |
,ide''
Anything further?"
Eyes, l told him after it was done |
that l wanted to quit. He said that |
was in more danger if 1 quit than if
stayed there"
Anything else?"
