Daisy N. Coale, beloved wife of Mr.. S.
Gardner Coale, of this town, which oc-
Cured at the home of her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. W. S. Ryon, near Groom, was
sad affliclion to her family and friends.
Less than year ago she was married,
and life seemed full of hope and happi

ing friends and affectionate relatives
brought joy and sunshine to her home.
Her sweet disposition endeared her to
them. From the church at Groom where
she was married in August, 1901, the
funeral took place last Sunday. Rev. Mr..
Willes conducted the services, which were
very impressive. Six of her ten brothers

interment was in the family lot in the
church yard. The deepest sympathy is
felt for the devoted husband and loving
relatives in their sad bereavement.

THE JURY REPORTS
Circumstances Attending the Al

Circumstances Attending the An
nonncement of the Verdict.
The jury that convicted Norm" W.
King. former chief Of detectives and now
q member of the detective force, Of hav-
ing become accessory to felony after
the fact, came into court shortly before
10 o'clock Saturday night. The jury was
out less than four hours, and one hour of
that time was spent at dinner. Two bal
lots were taken, the first standing ten for
conviction and two undecided.
When the verdict was returned, the de-
fendant was in the courtroom accompa-
MED by his son and a number of friends.
Except his son, however, no members of
his immediate family were present. He
was at once released under So, 900 bail fur
ndshed by Douglas Leffingwell. Alfred
Massolt and John Flanagan, but Judge
Simpson instructed him to appear in court
this morning for sentence.
When the jury reached an agreement
Judge Simpson and Assistant County At
torney Al ]. Smith were enjoying the per-
formance of the Frawley company at the
Metropolitan theater. They had left the
number of their seats at the box Office
however, and were at once informed that
their presence was desired at the court
house. They left Immediately and as
soon as he reached the courtroom Judge
Simpson sent for the jury.
On its arrival the verdict was handed
by Foreman Hubbell to Clerk Royce. The
clerk, in turn, passed the document to the
Judge who read it and returned it to the
clerk. Mr.. Royce then read aloud the
words that may send Norm King to the
penitentiary. At the request of Victor
J. Welch the jury was polled, each man
stating that the verdict returned was his.
Mr.. Welch then gave notice that he would
make formal motion for new trial,
and stay of ten days was granted.

sNoRM, KINGS SENTENCE
A Question as to. What Law Is Eff

Detective N. W. King, who was con-
yicted Saturday of being accessory to a
felony after the fact, will come before
Judge Simpson at 10 a. m. Tomorrow Tor
sentence. Sentence was to have been i'm
posed this morning, but a continuance
was granted at the request or victor
Welch, attorney for the defendant. Mr..
Welcn explained that there was still
doubt in his mind as to the penalty pro-
yided by law in. such cases. AS yet he
had not had opportunity to inquire deeply
into the question of penalty, with regard
to which the statutes apepar to differ.
Mr.. Welch is OF the opinion that the
proper penalty for his clients offense IS
jail sentence not to exceed year. The
state holds, on the other hand, that the
old law prescribing such penalty was
superseded by the penal code enacted IN
1885, which fixes the maximum penalty
at five years in the state penitentiary.
1T may be- he said, that we will have
no motion to make at that time. Inc
Inference from this remark was that If
the courts uphold the 'old law, which pro-
vides only for Jail sentence, his cllent
will be content to serve the short jail
term rather than attempt an appeal 70
the supreme court. If the court holds
that the old statute is repealed by impli-
cation and sentences the detective to q
term in the penitentiary, there VIII
doubtless be such an appeal. The higher
court, il it should differ in its-view of the
matter from the trial court, would not be
likely to grant new trial because OF the
error In sentence, but would remand the
case for resentence. For this reason most
lawyers who have looked into the matter.
believe the judge tomorrow will. give
King term at Saltwater.
Notwithstanding reports to. the con-
trary, Detective King has the appearance
of one who had put in two sleepless
nights since his last appearance In court.
He looked like badly worried man, and
his expression as that Of a man who had
given UP hope of escaping prison and was
resigned to the worst. King has the
reputation of being philosophical enough
with an over abundance Of nerve, and
no one doubts but that he will take his
medicine without grimace.
His constant companion now is his son,
who introduced testimony to prove an
alibi for his father during the trial. The
boy feels his fathers position sorely and
is. perhaps, even more disturbed thereat
than King senior.

A Hostile Faction.
It is pretty well understood that there
is a sentiment among the delegates which
favors indorsing the president strongly,
regardless of the delegation and of so
phrasing the Endorsement as to convey
the impression that the delegation is con-
demned. 80
Another element is in favor of keeping
the words "Cuba" and 'ereciprocity' out
of the platform, and making the indorse-
ment of the president general instead Of
specified The friends Of the delegation
are standing for the latter policy.
Will Criticize. Neither Side.
The compromise planks, which may be
adopted by general consent as the result
of to-day's harmony work, will recog-
nize both sides and criticize neither.
They will say that the president is right
in standing by reciprocity for Cuba, and
that the delegation is entitled to the
thanks of the party and of the state be-
cause of it's faithful and successful york
cause Of the prominent position which 1t
and through it the state occupies before
