WOOD ON THE STAND.
The Star witness In the bryan Case
Examined.

NEWPORT, KY, April A.-Every availa-
BILE space in the coust house today was
crowded during the Scott Jackson trial.
Among the witnesses examined was Will
Wood, the friend and correspondent OF jack
son; once charged with completely in the
crime, but since released. The most inter-
esting witness this morning was the mother
of Pearl Bryan, who was put on the stand
to testify to the disposition of her daughter.
1t is evidently a part of the policy Of the
prosecution to show youthfulness, trustful-
ness and inexperience. Late this afternoon
the defense revealed part Of its policy when
Wood was on the stand. 1t will be to break
down the character of WOOD by showing that
he, by his own confession to per ms whose
depositions the defense has, was l;mself in
innate with Pearl Bryan
low murmur ran over the room when
VIII Wood took the witness stand.- He stated
the intimacy of his friendship for Scott Jack
son during his stay Of nearly a year in
Greencastle. He also admitted that he had
introduced Jackson to Pearl Bryan, and that
since Jackson's departure last October, from
Greencastle to Cincinnati, that he Wood
had kept up correspondence with him, and
that letters from Jackson to him were de-
stroyed according to Jackson's request.
On Jan. "a 1896, he received letter from
Bryan to come there He showed the letter
to Pearl that day. She read it and asked
the witness, What would you do If you
were me?' Witness answered, Decide for
yourself" The next day, Jan. 25. she told
Wood she was going to Cincinnati. He saw
her off, assisted her on the train, and that
was the last he saw OF her. In the cross
examination. the questions indicated that the
defense had testimony from William ].
Grooms, of Greencastle; Ed Hunt, of Indian
apolis; William Iryines of Greencastle, and
dinner Newhouse, also $of Greencastle, show
ing in the form OF depositions that Wood
had boasted to them of his intimacy with
Pearl Bryan. This questioning was to lay
the foundation for thes depositions of these
persons in the defense. Wood positively de-
MED every statement Of. the DISPOSITIONS.

To Petrify Human Bodies.

Chicago, Dec. 18-Charles D. and
Frank Boydston, of this city, think
they have discovered method of turn.
ing human bodies to stone and preserv-
ing them forever. In the basement
of their establishment there is the body
of a young woman who died July IS
last This body since it was treated
by them has turned to stone, or to sub
stance resem bling it, and appears to
be .imperishable. In an upper room Of
the establishment is another body of a
woman who died August %, which
appears also to have become petrifed.
The brothers have been experiment.
ing for years, but the discovery of a
process of petrifcaiton was in some
respects an accident. Eight or ten
months ago they began to treat bodies
with a preparation which has petrify-
ing properties with such encouraging
results that they kept up their expert
ments.
