pride III his personal appearance. He
has frank and pleasing ccuntenance
the only defect being that his eyes are
very far apart and have way of star

a stupor. Cingmars, from his manners
and talk, is the one who would dc the
thinking for beth himself and Mus
grove and undoubtedly has done con-
siderable since the murder was COM
mitted.
The stories told by both men con-
cerning the killing agrees in detail and
although they are now confined oL
opposite sides of the Jail it Is very
evident that they decided on line of
action ana fully understand the state
ments they were to make before they
were captul ed. Musgrove, in talking
about the murder yesterday, admitted
that both cf them were In bad fix.
He endeavored to assume an air Of
bravado and said it made little differ
ence now what was done with him.
His idea was that person born to be
hanged was seldom If ever drowLed
and in this particular case his theory
will undoubtedly prove correct.
1t was two hours after the prisoners
had been entered in the Jail books and
assigned 20 cells on the upper tier that
they were visited by reporter for the
G O e. Cingmars was seated on
stool and was having a sketch made Of
himself by a couple Of newspaper art
lists. He had assumed an easy position
with his legs crossed and his hands
clasping his knees. His sombrero was
tilted back on his head in a careless
and decidedly becoming position and
while being cross-examined by re-
porter he reminded one Of star actor
posing for a write-up in one of his
best characters. The sketch being
finished he was willing to talk, at least
he said 80 but at that he did not
seem to care to un burden himself. BY
dint Of many questions, however the
following facts were elected.

Wis His parents were both alive, but
as to their present address he did not
care to say. He ran away from home
some eight years ago and since then
had led a wandering life: He had been
in Indian Territory, Kansas and other
Western states, but his statements as
to his travels in the sections Of the
country mentioned sounded as though
he had been reader of railroad folders
rather than a traveller through the
country. Musgrove, he said, he had
met in Indian Territory about three
years ago, but since then had not seen
him until about four months ago when
they met In Wisconsin, both having
been employed in driving logs at
Rhinelander. At Eau Claire, Wis,
some five weeks ago both he and Mus
grove were paid off and started for the
northern part of Minnesota They
spent some weeks about Mile Lacs and
the Indian reservation hunting and
fishing and having a good time gen.

Dassel, MINI. From this point they
drifted south, walking and riding or

them. Both had considerable cash and
with nothing to bother them they had

stop over at Mankato and then strike
for Iowa. Arriving within a short dis
