those who saw it will never be able
to describe. His face darkened, and
became livid for an instant. Adry
spoke sympathetically to his
mother, who, unable longer to
control her feelings, upbraided him
with bitter words.
ooh Adry, how could you do it?
How could you say such things
about my boy?" she sobbed, as,
half fainting, she sank into chair.
Adry said something in a low
tone, but Harry Interrupted him.
GO away, Adry; don't you
see you are making mother i'll?
Please 60" Adry turned to his
wife, who was standing a short dis
tance from him, his eyes moist
with tears.
When court convened for the aft
ernoon session there was not a va
cant spot in the entire floor space of
the court room. Long before o'clock
a great crowd of men, women and
children crowded the street for two
blocks in either direction from La
Dor temple, and such was the push
ing and jamming in the effort to
gain admission that it was with diff
flculty that the attorneys and
those directly connected with the
trial could obtain access to the build
ing. The rude behavior of the mob,
for it can scarcely be called anything
else, at the Eighth avenue entrance
was most marked. Hundreds of peo-
pie had been given passes by pretty
much everybody, and they were de-
termined to get in. One lone deputy
fought the mob as best he could,
and in his excitement managed to
allow those who had right in the
building to enter. 1t is an astonish-
ing thing that such aSfninity as pre-
sumes to regulate the handling of
people during the trial should con-
tinue in service week after week
1t would be the simplest matter in
the world for two or three police
officers to keep the way clear for
persons rightfully entitled to enter
the court room.
When the crowd was finally quiet
ed down. Mr.. Nye resumed his ques-
tions, but did not hold the witness
more than twenty minutes. The re-
mainder of the afternoon was con-
sumed by Mr.. ErWin's cross-eXam-
ination. He did not make much
out of his tedious interrogations
The witness was quite a match for
him at all points, and asked the at
torney some surprising questions
during the course of the afternoon.
At one time when he was pressing
the witness to explain why he did
not tell the police authorities about
Harry's intentions to murder Miss
Cling, and was unsatisfied with Ad-
rvs explanation that he could
hardly believe that his brother would
do such thing, and it was hard to
tell such a thing about a brother,
he turned to Mr.. Erwin and said:
''Mr. Erwin, / will ask you to place
yourself in my position. What would
you have done? Harry had always
talked such things to me. I went to
Elder Stewart and received his ad-
vice. 1t was a family secret that I
was guarding. 1t was my brother
who planned this terrible thing
What would you have done under
similar circumstances?
The court gave Mr.. Erwin per-
mission to reply, and he said:
81 certainly should have told ALL
That is what would have done"
At one time during the cross-ex-
animation the cold-blooded nature
of the accused was thoroughly
aroused. It was when Adry, at Mr..
Erwin's request, acted the scene be-
tween himself and Harry when the
latter had threatened to kill him
when told that he would hang if
he carried out his murderous in
tentions.
Adry advanced to the attorneys
table, his hands extended like a man
who is about to seize another by
the throat, and, in a voice CULVER
ing with emotion, said:
He came up to me this way, and
caught at my throat and my head
He had been reading about the
