T|LLMAN ON STAND
Man Who Shot Gonzales VIII
Tell Story Today.

LEXINGTON, S. c., Oct. S.-James
H. Tillman went on the stand today
as a witness in his own behalf in his
trial for the murder of N. G. Con-
zales. 1t was just one hour before ad-
journment that his counsel asked that
the defendant be called. With perfect
self composure he arose from his seat
among his attorneys and walked to the
clerks desk to take the oath. He was
on the stand an hour and will continue
his testimony tomorrow. Thirteen wit
nesses were heard today.
James Davis, the first witness for the
defense today, said he was riding on a
train with the defendant from John
ston to Columbia. His attention was
called to the testimony of Mr.. Terrell,
one of the states witnesses, relative to
a conversation the defendant was said
to have had with o. D. Black, a flag
man about Gonzales. The witness said
he did not hear Tillman make any
threats against Gonzales. On cross
examination he said he did not know
Terrell or Black.
Cole l.. Bliss, who said he had been
a member of the legislature and was
with the defendant throughout the
campaign of 1902 was asked If he was
present in the defendants room in a
hotel in Columbia on the night of Aug.
20 or 81, 1902, at the time DR.. Adams
was there. Upon answering In the af-
firmative, his attention was called to
the testimony of DR.. Adams relative to
a conversation that took place in the
room. Witness said DR.. Adams advis-
ed Tillman ito go down to the state Of
flee and fight Gonzales" and that the
defendant said he was lieutenant gov
ernor and could not afford to have a
difficulty" that he would be impeach-
ed, and, added the witness, somebody
about that time made remark about
something which Gonzales had said
about what he would do to Tillman.
Col Tillman said: you needn't be
uneasy about that-you boys needn't
be uneasy about that; if he undertakes
to attack me, 1 will snuff his light with
this"

MURDER HIM ON
TOP OF A BOX CAR
Four Tramp HoId-Up MenShoot
Leonard c. Dale, of Walker
ton, Ind.

While riding on top of a Northern
Pacific box car last night, in Minne-
apolis, Leonard C. Dale, of Walkerton.
Ind, was shot and fatally injured by
gang of tramp hold-up men. The
attack was made just as the east
bound Northern Pacific local freight
was entering Northtown Junction. Min
neapolis, shortly before 9 o'clock.
Three hours later Dale died at the
city hospital without regaining con-
sciousness.
When the train was slowing down at
the junction the train crew was star
tied by the report of a revolver. The
brakeman and several other members
of the crew ran to the rear of the
train from where the report came. Ly-
ing on top of a box car they found
an unconscious man, shot between the
eyes. His skull was also fractured,
the result of being struck with the
butt end of a revolver.
Four men jumped from the car lust
as the train crew appeared AS soon
as they landed on the ground they ran
into a woods adjoining the track. No
trace of the gang had been found up
to o'clock this morning.
1t is presumed that Dale was steal
ing ride on the incoming freight when
he was attacked by the hoId-up men.
1t is thought that he tried to fight off
the robbers and that when he showed
resistance he was struck over the head
with revolver and afterwards shot.
The train crew called a physician,
who attended Dale, and after his
wounds were temporarily dressed he
was taken to the city hospital Soon
after his arrival he grew worse and
at 1920 o'clock died without regain
ing consciousness.
The Minneapolis police think that
the men who killed Dale are tramp
hold-up men. They say that the gang
has been hanging about the outskirts
of the city for several days, and that
good description of the men has been
obtained from people who saw them
yesterday.

Have you legally adopted the
child?"
We'll, we got it from Mrs Lund, who

Comptroller Refused to Be

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.--Although pro-
Tossing his determination to contest
the right Of the Republican and Citi-
zens' union city conventions to displace
him as their nominee for comptroller,
Edward N. Grout has made no appeal
to the courts thus far. The filing Of the

ganization with the beard Of elections

Mr.. Grout or Mr.. Fornes, and thus one
step in the process of substitution has
been accomplished.

statement today in reply to the actions
of the convention last night In his
statement he charges the Citizeas'
union with being under Senator Platt's
rule and he says that he will fight his
being taken off the ticket to the end.
"All parties, all newspaL ers, agree
that 1 have been an honest and eff
cient comptroller. I shall stand for re-
election on that record, which all have
approved. Before 1 went away on my

ton of Platt and his intimates. and to
say whether this Democratic city shall
be thus turned over to Platt."

Farmer From Sabeka, Minn.,

William A. Bevans, a farmer of Sa-
beka Mimi, was somewhat staggered
on receiving the above barber bill aft
er sitting in a chair in a shop near the
depot for over an hour yesterday aft
ernoon So pleased was he with his
appearance, however, that he made no
objection. He calmly dug into his
pocket, drew out roll, ripped off a
$50 bill, and, accepting the change,
strobe from the shop a new man.
Bevans is sixty years old. He had
entered the shop gray headed, gray
bearded and grizzled, with long hair
and several days growth of beard.
An Uncle Sam goatee gave him char
acteristic appearance. But after being
for an hour under the skilled hands OF
the tOnsOrial artist, his closest friend
could not have recognized him.
His Family Didn't Know Him.
Indeed, his wife, who had waited
long and wearily in the depot for him,
did not know him when at length he
returned to her. His three daughters
and son looked askance at the stranger
who approached them with a broad
smile Illuminating his features. They
recognized the clothes, but the man
was new to them.
When Bevans entered the barber
shop he briefly stated that he wanted
to be ''Slicked up a bit" and the man

gray locks were shorn, much to the
satisfaction of Bevans. A shave was
next in order, and the shampoo and
