FAILED TO SEE HIS PARENTS.
Denver Medical Student Kept Alive
Three DAYS on Oxyuen,


Denver, Nov. ia. H. Rice, the stu
dent at the Denver University who
fought death by consuming remarka-
BILE quantity of oxygen, is dead. His
parents had been notified two days ago
that the end was near but up to last
night they had not arrived. 1t is posi-
BILE the message came too late for them
to arrive in time to see their son alive.
Rice was a medical student at the
Denver University, coming recently
from New York. His parents reside in
New Jersey. Sunday consumption's in
roads assumed a serious aspect, and
physicians told him he had but day or
two to live. He pleaded for oxygen, and
1t was administered by the hundreds of
gallons. In fact. the local agency could
not get the supply quick enough, altho
rush orders were sent day and night for
more.
1t was Rice's desire to see his parents
before he died. The oxygen gave him
artificial life. Every gallon procurable
was given him, but he called for more,
only to be alive when his parents ar
rived. Yesterday morning he asked II
they had arrived He was told they had
not, and in half an hour he was dead.
The cost OF keeping him alive has been
about $3.50 day for three days.

M'NiGHT ON THE STAND.
Defendant in Sioux City Murder Case
Tells His Story.

Tells His Story.
Sioux City. Nov. 15.-Ben Mcknight
took the witness stand yesterday and,
his life for stake, told the jury the
story he expects to make him free
man.
The states witness have repeated
time and again Mrs Meningitis story,
as she lay dying, to the effect that Nc
Knight came home Thursday after
noon, June 13, dragged her to the bee
and twisted her arm till she was un-
conscious; how Thursday night, June
1S, he came home, grabbed her. took her
to the window and threatened to throw
her out how she got away; how he
caught her again. threw her on the
kitchen floor, put his knees on her chest
and kicked her.
Mcknight said yesterday that he
came home Friday afternoon, lay down
on the bed and slept; that his wife came
and shook him by the shoulder that ne
caught her by the arm; that she resist
ed, and he picked her up and laid her
on the bed: that in doing so her ankle
was pressed between his knee ana the
bedstead, and thus was caused the
bruise that is alleged to have ended In
her death.
The prisoner denied that he had ever
in his life struck or beat his wife. ana
positively denied all the Matchmaking
conversations attributed to him by
many witnesses
The fact that Mcknight put the da.'
of his wife's injuries on Friday, wniie
Mrs. Mcknight said it all happened
| Thursday and Thursday night. ana
while many witnesses said she was sfc
| in bed all day Friday. caused distinct
surprise.
The majority of those who COM
mented on Meningitis story were
skeptical about 1t. There was so much OIL
! contradiction Of numerous witnesses,
| and Meningitis manner was so posi-
| tive and almost vicious. that the audi
tors did not seem to be yet ready to be-
| lieve his version.
Court did not convene yesterday
until 800, because Attorney Griffin was
late, Marie Mcknight, the prisoner
pretty daughter, came In during TINS
interval and sat down by her father
She laid her gioved hand tenderly on
his arm and talked to him as daughte.
unto father. Mcknight looked down al
most tenderly into the frank blue eyes,
turned devotedly up to his. The bailiff
tapped on the table the daughter step
ped quietly out of the room. and the
hearing Of evidence was begun.
The prisoner looked almost haggard
yesterday. His eyes were swollen and
red, and the lines about his face cut
deeper than before. He was
little more nervous and he started at
any unusual noise in the court room. He
watched every witness with his habitual
determined, morose, interest.
