fact of the shooting itself. The court
continuing:
In determining the question of in

facts. a loaded pistol was used so
close as to discolor the skin and that
Barker aimed at the mans head and
that he fired at Keller while he was ly-

show the intent. If you believe Barker
was insane ii must be established be-
yond n reasonable doubt You arc to
determine whether he has established
his insanity at the time and if so he
must be acquitted. If contrary, You
must find him guilty of the charge in
the indictment. There is evidence as
to the good character of the defendant
and of his being a peaccable citizen. 1t
is proper for you to consider this"
The jury then retired. After Il
minutes dcliberation verdict was
brought in finding Barker guilty of as
Sault with intent To kill. The maxi
mum penalty for the crime il seven
years Imprisonment and $1,000 fine.
After the verdict was announced Mr.
Van Wrinkle moved to have il set aside

promptly denied. Counsel then said
that he would appeal the case ana
asked that the defendant be admitted
to bail. The court said that the bail
would be fixed at $4,000 and that he
would sentence Barker, Thursday
Barker was then taken to the county

At the close OF the trial the Rev

project will meet with no opposition.
If this road is built it will be about
III. miles in length, extending from the
Maine Central station here. through
Cornish village. Kezar Falls and Por-
ter to the line between Maine and New

Granite state has charter to build
thence to West Ossipce and an option,
also, to Meredith.
If these three roads were connected
it would make a line 81 miles in length.
Mr:,Pennock has stated that if the de-
sinp rights can be secured the build
ing of the Cornish road will not de
pend upon the others. and that cars
will be running on the line late in the
