Continued from page l.;

did it and that the old man tried to tel
him, but couldn't speak.
Holt will then tell you that the respon-
dent then came out to where Zero lay
and said to him:
II asked him for a drink of rum and
he wouldn't give it to me-
She showed him her ear where, She
said the blow fell. She then threw wa
ter in his face and said to Holt that IL
was only making believe.
We shall show you by Gibbons that tn
trouble commenced by Zero requesting
the respondent not to cut deer meat with
his knife and asking her to give it IL
him. which request she refused and tina
they were wrangling over it, but just
what was said he has only an indistinct
remembrance by reason Of being. at least,
partially asleep.
We shall show that Mrs. Zero had beer
drinking that morning; that her state
ments made al the time and since do not
agree, but that she has generally said
all who have asked how it happened thai
he did it himself. We have never bee.l
able to find the knife with which Ger
was killed, but shall show you that when
it was last seen. at least by anyone con
nected with the governments case, it was
reeking with the blood of poor old Tor,
Gero and clutched in the hands of the
respondent at the bar.
DR.. Hunt, who made n post mortem ex-
animation of the body of Mr. Zero, will
describe to you the wound and will tell
you that it was a fatal one. We shall
produce other evidence, gentlemen. whlc-
| will not now take the time to enumer-
ate which taken with all the other evil
dence in the case, it seems to me must
satisfy you of the responsibility of thi
respondent for the death of Thomas Gero.
We shall not claim gentlemen, that Mrs.
Gero intended to kill this man when she
struck the fatal blow, but she does nov!
answer for the result of what she did do
She stands indicted for manslaughter,
which, of course. gentlemen, eliminate
all malice from the case. The evidence
which will now submit to you is not OF
great volume and / ave no doubt you Will
be able to arrive at a just conclusion al

FAVORED BY ROYALTY
AMERICAN GIRLS CATCH FANCY
OF EUROPEAN PRINCES
The Crown Prince of Germany Is the
Latest to Worship at the Shrine, Des-
pite Imperial DisapprovaI-He Says
He Loves All American Girls.

The disadvantages of royalty are
many. Equally marked, though not so
numerous, are it's advantages. Easily
first among the latter is the privilege
of comforting belledom on deserving
beauty. A prince smiles approvingly
and a pretty face becomes famous.
And no beauty is too obscure to be thus
favored. Every one remembers the
case of King Cophetua and the beggar
maid. The king admired, and the pop
ulace forgot the rags of the maiden.
The glory of the purple encompassed
her.
1t is to royalty chiefly that the Amer
lean girl owes her great and continued
vogue. Before Prince Edward had set
the hall mark of his approval upon her,
she had been admired but not deifled.
Then the prince arrived at the age of
mature Judgment, if not of discretion,
and the fame of the American girl was
established. Conservatism and age
have dampened the enthusiasm of the
English king, but the American girl is
not to be deprived of a royal adorer.
The youthful prince Of Germany has
come CALAMITY to her rescue Il love
all American girls" the youth declar-
ed enthusiastically year ago. His
royal relatives smiled indulgently. 81
love an American girl" announced the
prince just the other day. Royalty no
longer smiled, but all American girls
who heard of the declaration applaud
ed. OF course the particular girl has
not taken the prince seriously. The
American girl seldom makes the mis-
take of taking a filtration seriously.
And by this time, too, pretty American
girls have come to regard the admira-
ton Of royalty as one of their special
prerogatives.

MANY ARE LAW BREAKERS
WITHOUT KNOWING 1T
Subject to Fine If Dress Before Win
dow or Mark Letter Box.


Many people who have never been
accused of wrong doing and who live
strictly within the law" often make
themselves liable to fine and impris-
onment, and are not punished only be-
cause the laws are not enforced. The
man who stands before his window,
where he can be seen from the street,
to adjust his collar or necktie, or to
get better light on the collar button,
commits a misdemeanor, for which he
may be fined or imprisoned.
1t is all right to be kind to the dog,
but there Is in many municipalities a
line for allowing the dog to run at
large. After you have given your
Dog run and stated to take a walk,
II you are smoker, you are liable to
be lawbreaker by stopping at letter
box to strike match for your cigar.
There is severe penalty for defacing
a letter box, and making marks on it
with a match certainly does not i'm
prove looks of the box. To throw pa
per on the street is often a punishable
offense. To expectorate on the floor
of the car is also misdemeanor.
Another crime" is that of waving a
flag. 1t does not matter in the least
what the flag may be, you must not
wave it in public, or you will make
yourself liable to fine and imprison-
ment.
To play without license any musi-
cal instrument on the street is another
unsafe practice, the danger of which is
quite unappreciated.
Everybody knows the familiar Keep
off the grass" signs of many parks, but
it is probably not known that in some
places the remarkably severe punish
ment of ten days in Jail or $40 fine
may be inflicted on the offender. An
