ON TRIAL
FOR HIS LIFE
Ripper Calm And Unmoyed
Before the Witnesses
TESTIMONY THUS FAR
Tracing the Whereabouts OF the De-
PENDANT On the Night Newton
Stewart Was Shot.

Yesterd day afternoon the taking OF
testimony began in the case of Ser
eeant John Ripper of company A.
Twenty fifth U. S. infantry, who is on
trial for his life before jury of white
men in Judge Walthalls court on a
charge of numbering q white police
man in an unsuccessful attempt to
rescue drunken DOM psnion from the
clutches of the law. For three hours
the sergeant sat, to outward ap-
pearance at least generally calm, as
he listened to witness after witness.
Capt. H. r. II. Loug thorough, COM
handing Fort Bliss, was the first to go
on the stand. His testimony related TO
the distance from the police station to
the post and the length OF time Il would
take q squad of soldiers to come In
from the fort TO the jail. 1t would
take them between an hour and half
and two hours. This Is important as
showing that between the time Kipper
was seen at the post and the assault on
the ia there would have been time
for bin TO gather his forces aud reach
the jail. He was excused, the defense
reserving the privilege of recalling
him later.
DIAGRAM OF THE JAIL
Policeman John L. Taylor was then
called. With a diagram of the police
os0siou Ne pOlnbeu Oub TO bQ6 Jury the
positions there and explained how he
had examined the bullet marks after
the fig inland described the range taken
by them.
MURDERED OFFICERS CLOTHES
W. T. Stewart, father of the murder
ed officer, Newton Stewart, was the
third witness. Calmly and deliberate
ly he related how his son had gone to
work the evening of February 18th last
In good health and spirits and how ne
next saw him wounded unto death and
his death that followed.
Mr.. Dean then produced a package
which when opened proved to contain
the clothing and hat worn by the muir
dered officer at the time of his tragic
death At the sight o; the blood
stained faded gray uniform tears filed
the eyes OF the mother and sister of the
murdered officer who were listening.
The defendant watched the proceed
ings with apparent uncouoern.
Mr.. Dean took his stand before the
jury and Mr.. Stewart pointed out 20
the jury the location OF the wound
the right breast and the range
Of the bullet and also the bullet hole |
through the broad brimmed hat.

the morning OF February 18th last b.
was called about 5 O'Clock to attent
Policeman Newton Stewart whom b.
found to have been mortally wounded
| by shot through the lungs. He IL
lustrated on Mr.. Deans body the exec
location and nature of the wounds. BE
had made a special study of gunsho
wounds. This might have been in nict
ed by 30 calibre Winchester or sim
| liar rifle.
CROSS EXAMINED BY JUDGE WILCOX
The doctor said that he remained .
the police station about an hour and
when he reached the hospital with his
patient it was just about daylight
He thought 1t WAS before O'Clock
when he was called but he was moi
sure.
KIPPER'S COMRADES TESTIFY.
Henry Freeman, of the hospital
corps at Fort Bliss, then took the
stand. He Is medium complexion.
ed negro about thirty or thirty five
years of age. He Is about medium
heig ut, broad shouldered, heavy set and
with q military bearing.
His testimony was given in q clear
tone and straigh tfor ward manner, aud
seemed TO make a good impression.
He knew the defendant, John Kip
per He saw him on the morning of
the 18th OF February about $50 O'Clock.
The witness was then at the hospital
about his duties and saw Ripper out
side between the hospital and csnteen

Witness supposed he had his blue ones
under them.
white sailor, johnson, who had served
with Admiral Dewey on the Olympia
and had been received at ths hospital
sick. He. was now out in the noun
tains. Another inmate of the hospital
was Private Sims. This last is the
soldier now in Jail under an indict-
ment for alleged perjury before the
grand jury. There we're also present
Frank jefferson, T. n. Pettrick and
may be some others whom he could not
remem Der.
Judge Wilcox made very search
ing cross examination, but the witness
retained his composure. He denied
that he had ever been arrested but he
had been questioned by Capt. Lough-
borough on Sunday, February 18th,
and again later He had also testified
before the grand jury. He denied
having then stated that he had seen a
man taking off his overalls outside
but that he could not recognize him.
Juup0 " liCON pSTstS ECU IN trying I'd
force the witness to admit that he had
not risen on that morning until after
the $50 call and had not gone to the
window a. all and also that he was
ha bitualiy late sleeper. The witness
however stuck 80 his story although
the attorney intimsted to him that the
other inmates of the hos pital could
con tradict his story.
The cross examination covered the
witness doings during the morning in
question. The witness carefully de-
'cribed the exact location of the
hospital, the position OF the windows,
and the location of the building in
ront of it occupied by the officers.
The roof of the building was sloping
Ind by looking from the windows of
he hospital one could see across the
'oof at it's lower portion.

down by the captain and be signed
and swore to it.

down by the captain and he signei
and swore to it.
ASKED TO GO BUT DECLINED.
George Harris, tall, slender, ligh,
complexioned negro, testified that he
was a soldier of Company a, Twenty
fifth U. S. infantry and was stationed
at Fort Bliss on Fe bruary 18th.
When he was in bed on the night of
the 10Th or the morning of the 18th,
Sergeant Ripper came and woke him.
Ripper told him that Corporal Dyson
was in jail and asked him (Harris) to
go with him (Kipper) and take him
DYSON out. Witness refused, saying
he did not want to be mixed up In any
trouble. Ripper then left.
The witness said that he Judged that
1t was about 3 or 4 o'clock when this
occurred but he had not looked at any
time piece and was only making a
guess.
On cross examination Mr.. Stanton
tried hard to make the witness admit
that he was addicted to drunkenness
and gam bling and was drunk on the
night of the 10Th and engaged ia play
ing poker. Harris, however, was firm
in bis denials.
During the cross examination Kip
per and his attorneys held frequent
whispered consultations.

the defendant was between the canteeu
aud the hospital, probably nearer the
| former than the latter.
| Freeman seemed to be a very intel
liRept negro. He spoke with little
trace of dialect and was very deliberate
in his statements and answers. Hie
| testimony seemed to make q very fav-
orable impression.
A SENTINEL SAW HIN
Arthur Taylor. coal black young ne
| gro soldier, testified that on th e morning
OF the 18th of.February from l to 3
O'Clock he was on sentinel duty. He
saw the defendant, Sergeant Ripper,
come from town on a bicycle about 2:3O
o'clock. He was positive in his identi-
fcation.
On cross examination by Mr.. Stan
tor the witness said he had been in the
army only about ten mouths and was
not In the Cuban campaign. He said
he had been questioned by Capt.
Loughborough on two occasions re-
garding his knowledge of Kipper's do
ings and he made q written statement
which he swore to.
with Boyer Wright. one of the soldiers
now in the county Jail, regarding the
incident to which he had testi-
fed.
Taylor in answer to questions by Mr..
Stanton said that he was twenty years
old and came from Washington, D. c.,
where he enlisted in the army.
Mr.. Stanton In his cross exsmipa-
ton asked his quest ons in sharp tones.
The witness was equally short and
sharp in his answers. He stated that
it was dark night, NO moon shining,
and somewhat blustery. The defend
ant passed within about ten PAGES of
him. In spite of the dark .he was ab-
solutely positively In his Identified
ton.
SOMEWHAT RATIFIED.
The witness Jared we'll enough until
Judge Wilcox began a cross examine
tion on the various details of guard
mount, the ceremonies, manner OF
changing guard and the hours during
which he was on post, Judge Wilcox
is we'll posted on this matter and in
short time bad the witness badly rat
tied, masking him contradict himself
several times much to the amusement
of Sergeant Ripper.
He said that Sergeant Davis and Cor
poral Holly were in charge of the guard
that night.

Pierson Coffey was then called. He

at him a moment and left going over |
to Private Harris bed. He aroused |

Soldier Ants.

Before the Biological Society of Washington Mr. 0. F. Cook described his studies of the African termites, or white ants. Certain individuals in eF- cry nest have no other apparent fune- tion except that of fighters or soldiers. Some have a long beak from which they eject an acrid. corrosive fluid; others inspire terror by making a loud clicking noise with their mandibles, but they neither shoot nor bite. One singular observation of MT. Cook was that the soldier ants which rush out to defend an attacked nest do not return to the nest, but wander about and soon perish from exposure to the outside air"

.Intlein Machines.

For registering the results of foot race the human eye and voice seem sometimes painfully inadequate. Close contests of this kind will doubtless end more pleasantly when the new Judging machine described by the Golden Penny, comes into general tse. The machine. which was invented by an Australian, is designed to be placed of the finish line. and consists or light metal frame partitioned into two or more divisions, each about four feet wide. On the top of the frame stands 2 small cabinet containing numbered divisions corresponding to the num- bers of the tracks. The instant the 43fsf.naanE passes through his division q shutter falls, disclosing his track number. The other numbers are =iIn- mediately locked, except when the ma chine is set for final heats. h this case a small cylinder is attached to machine, "a. a kammer. head strikes a mark on the revolving eylln- der as the men finish. Thus the exact n5sftfans of all the competitors can be told to nieety. The same inventor has originated an automatic judging machine for bicycle races. 1t consists of fine light metal strips plaeef in 3 small trench about two inches wide, which is sunk across the track at the finish. During the last lap these strips which are coated with enamel, are placed fn position by means of lever. and the first wheel to cross receives five marks In crossing however, it dispfaces one of the strips. and the next wheel, therefore, only receives four marks. the third three, and so on.

Cost of English Fox Hunting.

The figures relating to fox hunting in Britain are interesting and show that a large amount c. money is =an- nualIy expended on what is considered by some as a =barbarous= practice and by it's followers as the finest form of sport. There are now 22f packs of fox hounds in the United Kingdom-l60 in England, twenty=six in Scotland and fifteen in Ireland, and these packs consist of 5000 couples of hounds, and they neeessitate the employment Of 100000 horses of the value of S35,000,= 900, involving an outlay of $25,00o,00o per annum for their maintenance.

Why the Leaves Turrl.

The common and =o1d=fashionedZ idea is that the tints of autumn foliage are caused by frost. Stated briefly. the causes are these: The green matter in the tissue of a leaf is composed of two eolors, red and blue When the sap ceases to flow in the autumn and the natural growth Of the tree ceases, oxidation of the tissue takes place. Under certain conditions the green leaf changes to red, under different conditions it takes on yellow or brown tint-due 10 difference in com bination of the original constituents of the green tissue, and to the vary ing conditions of climate. exposure and soil. A dry, cold climate produces more brilliant foliage than one that is damp and warm. This is the reason that our American autumns are so much more gorgeous than those Of England
