light was lit then we went on up to the

Jacobs stuck to his story through q
severe CrOs5-eN3mlnatiOn and was con-
Trajectory IN no important particular.
In the details there is remarkable
consistency between his testimony and
that of his children, Emma Houston
and Jimmie Jacobs. At three O'Clock
Tuesday the state rested and the de-
IClINC CClIltlEilCtAi iilF1tIs inning.
For the defense Eilerv Eastling told
of being in Jail with Jacobs at Stevens
Point, and Of the attempt Of the sheriff
there to get Jacobs to confess. He was
4 witness at the former trial Of Lord
and Emery, being at that time fellow
convict with Jacobs at W8upun. and
told Of q conversation with Jacobs at
New London Junction on the return
from Grand Rapids to Waupun. While
at the lunch counter there Jacobs said
II swore to a d-n lie; [ was put up to
1t and if / ever get another chance will
tell the truth" This conversation was
verified by Guard McLeese who had
the conyicts in charge.
William Lord, one g the defendants,
testified in his own behalf He ac-
counted in his way for the entire day Of
the murder and made it appear I'M
possible that be could have partici-
pated. He accounted for the load Of
buck shot in EmeTy's gun by stating It
was loaded by q visitor to shoot sand
hill cranes the day before the murder;
that the cranes flew away and the gun
was returned to its resting place with
out the load being removed. The gem
eral impression was that Lords
evidence made himself altogether too
innocent, as he fiatly cOntradicted
many witnesses for the state who had
no interests involved in the trial.
Charles Emery followed Lord, and
cOrr0horated his story in all possible
particulars, but became quite uneasy
under cross ss-eNamination.
The testimony Of other witnesses
was of little Importance and it looks
now as if the case o. the state was not
to be refuted.
