WHY NOT BUY A sINGER2

You wan sewing machine? Then
why not buy singer; there has been
more of them sold than any other
make. They wear longer, run light
er and do better work than any other
make. They have never been a cut
price machine, the workmanship on
the Singer will not admit of cut pri-
ces. A few dollars in the original
cost between good machine and a
poor one counts for nothing. B. Ber-

PRELIMINARY HEARING

or Joseph Metzinger for the killing OF
Mrs, Carabsjal.
The preliminary hearing OF Joseph
MetzIngeT, the Gold avenue baker, who
owns the property where Mrs. Carabajal
was killed by man trap on Sunday
evening last, was begun before Justice
Duran, seated in room In the county
court house, at 10 o'clock this morning
Attorney b, s. ROdey, assisted by At
tOrney Horton Moore, Is conducting the
defense.
They take the ground that Metzinger
had the right 70 protect his property from
thieves who had been stealing from him,
In the manner he did, and are citing a
case In Connecticut covering somewhat
the same grounds.
MetZinger's property was enclosed By
fence, the gates were locked and Mr.
aud Mrs. Carabajal were trespassars, and
II a crime ia made out, they Insist that
there was cOntributOTy negligence on the
part OF the couple who entered the
premises
When Mr.. ROdey spoke OF the killing as
an unfortunate affair for which his client
felt deeply aggrieved, Mr.. MetzingeT
broke into sObs and Ii was some minutes
before he had regained his compOsure.
Mr. Carabajal was put upon the stand,
and 10 a question put by the defense he
denied that he was handling the lock In
any manner when the gun was fred.
The prosecution insisted that no man
has right 10 place trap, az had been
done by Mr.. Metzinger, aud as resulted
in the present case, an innocent person
had been killed; then the crime was
murder. Mr. Finlcal said that In almost
all eases where a killing is done, there IL
remOrse felt by the perpetrator OF the
crime afterwards, but that does not les
sen the enOrmity OF the Otfense nor eX.
cUse II from being punished.
At a late hour this afternoon the hear.
ing was still in progress and might bt
