gears on a cattle ranch and while at
her grandfather's home in the city she
was taken to Sunday school for the

Trapped by a Lawyer.

The story of Abraham Lincoln's con.
founding an opposing witness with an
almanac record of the moons phases,
finds parallel In the case of Waterson,
recently acquitted IN a charge of MUIR
der in an Iowa court. The main wit
ness against him was one Delafeld,
who swore he was working just out
side the window of the accused on the
day of the alleged crime, and saw
take down
a bottle, move about as mYpreparinl
potion, and then administer the
draught to Mrs. Waterson, who died in
great agony later in the day.
A lawyer named Bradford, for the
defense, had asked the jurymen on ex-
animation of them as to competence,
if they had faith enough in the wealth
er bureau reports to attach credence to
them, and had found every man on the
panel believed the records were fair
and reliable. The State had not I'M
derstood the drift of these questions,
but had not objected.

window. and he said he was digging a
cistern.

"Work in an o~vercoat?"
"No; my shirt sleeves. The day was

ground within reach"

ly.
Then Bradford offered In evidence a
certified copy of the weather bureau
report for November 10 and IL, and
showed that the temperature had been
below freezing the first day and below
zero the day of the alleged crime.
The jury accepted the official docu-
ment, and to that extent regarded the
witness as impeached, for Waterson
was acQuitted.-Chicago Times-Herald

Hartman's spacious and pretty hall
was far too small to admit the large
number of friends of the boys of Camp
430, =. o. S. of A., at their compli-
mentary entertainment last night.
Every available bit of room was used
and in the corridors many were stand
ing. Jacob Christophel was chairman
of the occasion. There were fifteen
numbers on the excellent programme
and each were well rendered and re-
ceived. The opening ode, "The Star
Spangled Banner" was sung by the
audience. Owing to the fact that in
the hall there is not a piano, the selec-
tions were Instrumental.
Haberstroh's either club. the younger
Maennerchor, Miss Lena Shueman,
Louis Hausroth, Arthur Tisdale, Charles
Weber and Fred. Jones and his NAM
moth phonograph comprised the array
of talent. Attorney r. A. Zimmerman
was the speaker of the evening. His
address, a timely topic, was on the
grave situation that now confronts this
nation and Spain. Mr.. Zimmerman
stated that while he was a patriotic
American, he believed it wise for the
American people to await the result of
tHe bodIu VI inquiry blNtsllSdtloll' IL
our flag has been outraged by the
Spanish, most assuredly the insult
should be resented. In scathing terms
he denounced the "yellow journals
that are urging the people on to point
where an outbreak is imminent. These
papers he considered unpatriotic, and
enemies to the government. The pol
icy maintained by the president was
a common sense one in the speaker S
opinion. He spoke for nearly an hour
and his address was listened to with
attention and loudly applauded all
through.
An interesting feature of the enter
tainment was a banjo solo rendered by
Louis Hausroth and Arthur Tisdale
that was recorded in the phonograph
of Fred. Jones, and when the solo was
ended the phonograph repeated it.
