BUFFALO, Sept, 23-The trial of
Czolgosz. the assassin of President
Mckinley. began this morning prompt
ly at ten O'Clock. 1t had many dra-
matte features
AS early as s o'clock the vicinity of
the court house swarmed with blue
coats. The reserves were out and
mounted policemen surrounded the
prison and other buildings. Curious
crowds gathered. and by half past 9
there was multitude of people about
the court building. Most of them were
angry and vindictive. The prisoner
would not have lasted long among
them.
Entrance TO the court room was by
pass. There were only two hundred
tickets issued. and every one who gain
ed admittance had his credentials
carefully inspected for fear that some
person might gain entrance to do in
jury to Czolgosz. either through de-
sire for notoriety or for honest re-
venge
Thousands on the outside clamored
vainly for entrance.
White took his seat and the court was
opened. The prisoners distinguished
counsel were there, as well as Drs
Mcdonald and Hamilton, the insanity
experts. who examined Giteau. the as
sassin of President Garfield. They

The prisoner was brought in at 10
o'clock. handcuffed. and with two Of

and in front of him three policemen.
He was well dressed and cleanly

a white shirt and collar and a blue
necktie. His hair was neatly comb
ed. He entered the court room
amidst a buzz of interest. He was
given the usual prisoners seat The

prisoner, we withdraw the plea of

The presiding Judge bowed his ac-
quiesance and the trial proceeded.
The prisoner smiled slightly and ap-
peared utterly Indifferent as to what
anyone said or did. The jurors were
called. and within nve minutes two

BY THE EDITOR,

The expressions of sympathy I have
received from the people OF Willmar
and of the county and state by letter,
word and deed in the great loss have
sustained in the death of my life COM
panion has touched me more deeply
than words can express. I feel CRATE
full for the kindness of all. It is a
great comfort to me to be able to read
sympathy in the look, word and touch
Of my fellows. May the heavenly
Father, who can fully appreciate and
understand the language of hearts, re-
ward and bless all.

Among the many written messages
Of sympathy received, all of which
prize highly, are several which I take
the liberty to reproduce here. The
