WILL BuRRlS, from McLennan county,
conviction for robbery Reversed
1. 1t is shown that the jury was allowed
to separate during the trial, and that one
of tho jurors, while the Jury was thus
separated, talked to an outsider about the
case. We do not feel authorized to permit
a conviction obtained under such circum-
stances to stand.
g The other bills OF exceptions presented
are too indefinite for consideration.

l.. b. MILLER. from Dallas county; con-
viction for producing an aboruon--Re-
versed-
l. The conviction was secured mainly
through tho testimony Of Mrs. Miller,
formerly Miss Turnage on whom defend
ant is charged to have produced the abor-
ton. Defendant married Miss Turnagc at-
ter the date OF the alleged crime.
The court erred In admitting the testi-
mony of this witness. That the matter to
which she was called to testify about
transpirod before the intermarriage with
defendant. did not render her competent
witness against her husband. The crime
IL alleged to have been committed with
drugs Tho evidence WAS not therefore ad-
missiblc on the ground that it showed per-
sonal evidence by the husband against the
wife. Besides. If we conctde that violence
was used by defendant. the woman was
not at the date OF such violence his wife.
2. The woman could not be am accom-
plicc in this crime under the law, and
the court did not err In refusing to charge
on accomplcc's testimony.

"apples do easily and speedily pass

Howe and the Benbow. The Alexandra
class. close upon 20 years old. the De-
vastation type. with their revolving tur-
rets, were a so in evidence, as were the
classes OF which the Infiexble. Thunrerer
Snd Sans Parie are specimens.
Two types were shown i'm the cruiser
class. of which the Powerful and Ter
rble. the two fastest British cruisers
afoat. were the most interesting, and
there were 80 OF the old torpedo boats.
All OF the ships had their full compli-
ments.
The naval craft present flew about 200
pennants-a number which but for the
size and importance OF the vessels would
have seemed lost In the crush Of attend
ing steamers and yachts-craft of every
possible description. in every possible
condition. from the great Atlantic and
Australian liners. cross channel pack
cts. Norway excursion steamers, Medi-
terranean cruisers. old paddle boats.
dirty tugs and smart yachts. dainty
electric launches and fishermen S
dingys. venturesome canoes and many
rowboat filled with wharfrats.
The decorations OF this shipping hotch-
potch were as variesated as the crafts
they adorned. The stately liners were
trimmed with near approach to what
Is possible In ships. and the long string
or flags from stem 10 taffrail showed up
very effectively against the morning
sky. The smart yachts were daintily
befiagged. but not much could be said
for the rest
1t was therefore great relief 20 the
eye when at 8 o'clock. on signal from
the Renown, Admiral Sir NOVEL; Sal
mons flagship, there broke out on every
war vessel a perfect aruption Of color.
Each ship spread every stitch OF bunt-
Ing II possessed--streamers from every
spar and rainbows over all. The.fiags
were mainly signals OF the international
and naval codes. and their multiform
colors added very perceptibIy 10 an en-
semble which was as striking as 1t was
theatrical.
