Adry and bad made his night sleep
less. His eyes were dull and heavy
this morning
Erwin began his questioning rough

there was between him and his father
and Harry.
Were you not crazy on Oct. 7?' he
asked.
well, as to that" replied Adry.
II am not in a position to answer"
and he laughed as the court ruled the
question out
With regard to the charge that he
had embezzled money from his father,
Adry admitted that he had been
charged with doing so, by both Harry
and his father, but he had charged at
the time that the money had been
stolen from his fiat by Harry for the
purpose of fomenting trouble. On Oct.
he had been requested by his mother
to go to her apartments and talk the
matter over. The interview was a
stormy one. Harry had continually
said: "Why don't you give father back
the money?' Adry claimed that the
books were straight, and that Harry
had the missing money. Mrs. Hay
ward became incensed at her elder
son, and he turned to her with the re-
tort: "Mother, if you think I'm dis
honest, why did you raise such litter
Of pups?" Then came threats from
Harry that If Adry did not go out at
once, he would knife him. Later,
Harry had told the witness that his
father was carrying revolver and
would
Shoot Things on Sight.
'That was all that made the trouble
between my mother and myself" said
Adry. ->
Don't shake your head, mother"
he added, looking straight at Mrs.
Hayward, who sat beside Harry, Its
all the truth, and you know it. I'm
telling the truth"
'"Tell it. Tell it ALL" cried the moth
er, "leave out nothing.
Mr.. Erwin asked a number of ques-
lions which We're ruled out by the
court. Among them were the follow
ing:
did you tell your father and moth
err that you were being shadowed?"
did you not tell them that folks
were peering into the windows con-
stantly, and the next one who did it
would get the contents of your re-
volverY
did you tell your father that you
met a man on your fishing trip who
told you that you had had trouble and
would have more, and that you were
50 impressed with it that you had your
life insured?"
"Did you often threaten to rob street
cars"'
One impeaching question which was
allowed, was this: "Now, you told us
yesterday that when you were in Jail
Harry said: They are pressing Blixt
rather close"
Il don't know whether T said or
Harry did. We We're both of us read
ing the papers. Then Harry said:
I'm not afraid about his sticking
What I'm afraid Of u.s. tapping me
on the shoulder, what you may say"
"Now don't you know that the pa
pers had nothing in them about Blixt
that day."
II don't know anything about it.

your father on Oct. Z, i've got to
have money some way. If I don't get
it, I'll rob a street car or hold up
train or dc something. I know

If don't?'"
Il did not" said Adry.
Nov, why did you go to Stewart
with this?'
Il thought he was friend. Father
wouldn't listen to me. Harry said
that he could send me to saltwater.
He and father had the money and
they could send me to Saltwater any
time they wanted to. 1 told Harry
that could send him. Father wanted
to know what l meant by that.

went to Elder Stewart that same day
and told him all about it."
"Handn't your father had trouble
with Elder Stew; rt?" r. - .1.....
"Well, he had had some trouble, for
I know father had not been doing the
elders business for about three
months. He had gone there right
along, however, and they were on
reasonably good terms" H
"Now, why did you go to him, when
you knew he was an enemyY
"He was not an enemy; he was
friend. I had known him for twenty
five years."

said Adry.
Every we'll, offer the shoes. You
