ADMITTED As EVIDENCE.
Mrs. Castles Deathbed Accusation
Against Jessie Morrison Ad-
mitted by the Court.
iHE LEGAL CONTEST WAS PROTRACTED.
The Defendant, For the First Time
Way to Tears, as Her Counsel Un-
folded the Plan of the Prosecute
ing Attorneys.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. GA special
to the Star from Eldorado, Kas., says:
Mrs. Castles deathbed statement of
accusation against Jessie Morrison
was admitted as evidence in the case,
The statement, which declares that
Miss Morrison provoked the quarrel
with the bride and then began an at
tack that cost Mrs. Castle her life, is
considered the strongest evidence pre-
scented by the state. The point of its
admission had been argued ,ince
Tuesday morning, and during that
time the jury had been excused.
Gave Way to Tears.
Jessie Morrison gave way to hei
feelings in the court room and wept
for the first time since her trial be-
gan. 1t occurred during the final ar
gument Of Judge Redden, one of the
prisoners attorneys, against the adj
mission OF the statement.
Judge Redden said that Capt. Wa
tiers, for the state, had depicted the
horror of the wounding of the bride
had painted the scene of sorrow al
the death bed, land now" said the
attorney, 81 understand the purpose
of this thing. 1t was an attack upon
this defendant here to intimidate and
COW her and, II possible, to break hei
down, and then point to it when this
case goes before the jury as evidence
of her guilt, or, If she could brace
herself against it and by her will
power not break down, they wculc
point to that as evidence Of a guilty
conscience
Could Hold In No Longer.
As Judge Redden talked he looked
at the prisoner whose eyes were wei
with tears. She gulped down n sol
and hid her eyes with her handlter
chief. Miss Morrison has steadiastly
maintained complete control OF her
self as she sat through the tedious eX
animation of the states witnesses
and this was her first show of Q
breakdown. Once released the tear
flowed freely.
A Concoction 10 Convict.
Judge Redden continued at length
He charged that the dying declaration
made by Mrs. Castle was connection
of men who sought to convict an limo
cent girl. She was frail CIR
against whom vindictive men had
conspired. All the evidence on which
the attorneys for the state depended
for conviction, he declared, was cir
c,mstantial excepting the dying
statement of Clara Castle.

"My son was the victim of brutal
hazing," said Mr.. Booz. "He came
home brokenhearted and physically
wrecked. He never saw a well day
after he left the academy.

down his throat which permanently

RoCKEFELLER'S PASTOR OUT.
Snid to Be the Third Pastor Who
Has left the Church

CLEVELAND. Ohio. March 27.-There is
feller attends here and the blame it is
said, is laid on Mr. Rockefeller. The Eu-
clid Avenue Baptist Church is one of the
most prominent in the city and has been
favored by very liberal contributions from
the Rockefellers, John d. and Frank.
John d. Rockefeller is also superintendent
of the Sunday school.
week or SO ago the pastor the Rev.
II. c. Applegarth resigned. The trouble
that led to his resignation began with a
sermon, in the course of which Mr.. Apple
garth illustrated one of his points by say
ing in effect that while some people charg-
ed John d. Rockefeller with stealing the
money that he gives to the church, even if
he did steal it, he laid it on the altar and
thus sanctified it. 1t is said that John d.
Rockefeller was greatly angered at the re-
from the church. Then Mr.. Applegarth' S
resignation and his acceptance of a call to
a Boston pastorate followed.
On the following Sunday DR.. Applegarth
asked members of the church to remain
after the service and he then announced
his resignation. No hint was given by DR..
Applegarth of the reasons for his change
beyond a statement made that he believed
il would be for the best interests of the
church. Last Friday evening a reception
was given to MIR. Applegarth at which he
was asked to reconsider his resignation.
In response Dr.. Applegarth said that if the
members of the church were so anxious to
have him as their pastor the only thing to
do was to get together and extend him d
call Petitions have been circulated and
a majority of the congregation have sign
ed, and these signers will start new
church. DR.. Applegarth is a close friend
of Frank Rockefeller.
1t is recalled that all three pastors of
the church have left within the past
twelve years, it is said, bacause- John d.
Rockefeller wanted them to go.
