There Is more Cdtarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable, For a great many years
doctors pronounced 1t a l)cal dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced 1t
ncurable, Science has proved ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutions

PROCEEDINGS AT THE TRIAL
Kid Testifes in His Own Behalf-Tup-
per on the Stand

Owing to the order which had been
given out that the Kid Thompson trial
would hereafter be conducted behind
closed doors, the crowd in attendance
at the court room yesterday morning
was much smaller than on the previous
days. Alva Johnson was again placed
upon the stand and continued his tes-
timony, which had been begun the day
before. On cross-examination he was
asked by Judge PHILIPPE how he happen
ed to change his mind in regard to tes-
tifying against Kid Thompson. He re-
piled that 1t had been through the infiu-
ence of his wife. He said that she had
begged him to make the confession and
he had done 1t for her sake. He was
asked why she desired him to testify and
he replied that he did not know, but that
she asked him and he had complied to
please her.
Judge Phillips asked johnson If his
wife had not had something to do with
the planning of the robbery and he re-
piled, mo, of course she did not. Any
one who knows that woman would know
that she did not do such thing" The
cross-examination was at last finished,
but nothing new Of Importance had been
ELECTED.
Lester Osborne, a newspaper man.
who at the time of the Roscoe robbery
was a newspaper reporter, testified re-
garding q conversation he had had with
Thompson In the county jail bearing
on Johnson's confession. Thompson had
said that he was sorry the two men
had been killed in the wreck. but added
that If the engineer had obeyed the sig
mol to stop. the smash-up would not have
happened. Thompson made no dam

have him in charge and thus make his
escape,
There are conflicting stories as to how
the officers learned of the plot. Assist
ant District Attorney McComas who Is
assisting In the Kid Thompson prosecu-
tion stated that the district attorneys
office had been In possession of informa-
ion that an escape was being planned fol
several days. He said that 1t was
through Harris that the matter had beer
brought to the knowledge of the officers
and that Harris was playing the part OF
the detective in the whole affair.
MCOMAs' VERSION
According to his version of the mat
ter, when Tupper came in from Arizona
he began looking around for some one
who would assist him in carrying out his
plan to deliver Thompson. He laid the
matter before Harris and the latter
agreed to help him. but at once informed
the sheriff of the scheme. This story was
positively denied last night by. Jailer
Kennedy, who said that Harris was a
part of the plot and had never given any
information to the officers. At any rate
he Is now confined with the rest in the
county Jail.
The officers promise some surprises to :
day but refuse to disclose their nature.
They say that there are several other
well-known people connected with the
affair who would never be expected to be
implicated in such plot. 1t was learn
ed last night that this is not the first
time an attempt has been made to snug
gle gun to Thompson, but that a wea-

few weeks ago. He has been known as
man who would stop at no crime where
there was chance of liberty, and has
been closely watched at all times. The
fact that Tupper who was relied upon
by Kid to clear him of the charge of
train-wrecking and save his neck, has
been implicated in such a plot will be
likely to destroy any weight which his
testimony might have had with the jury.
AS it stands today, Kids chances of Sc
curing his freedom look rather slim.
MAGGIE BROWNS RECORD

woman of the town, is we'll known in
