objected. and the jury was sent out
while the point was argued. The judge
decided that the question was outsid"
of tho res gestae, and could not be adj
mitted.
After finishing her direct examination
Miss Carter was asked by Mr.. Montague
how she came 10 be standing In the side
door at the time OF the tragedy. and she
replied that 1t was quite accidental.
SLIGHT DISCREPANCY.
In describing the firing of the two shots
Miss Carter said that they came Just as
fast as they could be fred
In this respect her testimony differed
from that OF Willie Winston. who tcsu-
tied that he had time 10 speak TO his
mules between the reports.
Miss Carter was crOss-examined at
great length both by Mr.. Montague and
Mr.. Sands, but she stuck strictly to her
original statement.
There were but two points upon which,
there was any difference between her
two statements. one being that on this
occasion she swore Moore put his hand
inside the skirt of his coat instead Of
outside, and also that Moore was not
looking at her father when the shots were
fired.
II was o'clock when Miss Carter con-
Guided her testimony. and Mr.. Smith
stating that he felt too unwell to go on
with the case asked for an adjournment
until Monday morning at IL O'clock,
which was at once ordered by the judge.

One OF the Best Features
OF the Pyramid Pile Cure

Is the fact that Il cures every form OF
piles without one particle OF pain. This
desirable point is not obtained by the
uso OF injurious opiatcs which simply
dcadon and paralyze the nerves Of the
parts and make matters worse I'm the
long run But IL Is done solely by ITS
remarkable healing and soothing effects.
And while IL thus gives immediate re-
lief lat the same time the disease IS not
merely checked. but a radical cure is
rapidly accomplished
And the point we want 20 make clear
T. that all this is done without particle
Of pain.
This fact is one reason for the great
popularity OF the Pyramid Pile Cure
and constitutes one very great differ
cnce between II and almost any other
Kind of treatment for piles
Every kind OF surgical operation for
piles is eXcruciatingly painful besides
endangering the life Of the patient and
in most cases Is not 10 be compared
with the Pyramid Cure, neither IN max
ing successful cures without pain nor
in cheapness and safety.
The Pyramid Pile Cure has been be-
fore the public too long. and It's merits
recognized by too many people to allow
+. TO be classed with the many salves,
suppOsitories pills. etc, and run no
risk IN trying II, as Is often the case
with new and untried preparations.
II you are ever troubled with any
form Of piles or rectal disease do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Cure. Pre-
