Divers recently raised from the
Mediterranean, off Sicily, about thirty
old guns which, they say, belonged to
the Dutch and Spanish ships sunk by
the French in 1915, At any rate, nine
of the guns are adorned with the
ancient insignia of the Netherlands.
There is greater treasure in the sea
than out-of-date guns, and when sub

Today's Witnesses Disappointing to
the Prosecution.

CYNTHIANA, KY, August Ain the case
of the commonwealth against Curtis Jett
and Thomas White. on trial here for the
assassination Of j. B. Marcum. DR.. ]. NJ
Kash of Jackson testified to attending the
dying Marcum he lay in front of the
court house. He testified that few min
utes before the killing of Marcum he saw
Curtis Jett in front of Hargis Bros store.
Immediately across the street from the
court house, talking to Asbury Spier and
"Lish" Noble. This contradicted the testi-
mony Of at least fifteen witnesses who tes-
titled for the prosecution to seeing Jett go
into the side door OF the court house imme-
diately before the shooting On cross-ex-
animation he did not remember seeing any
one else at the time of the killing about the
court house. John Smith and John Abner
testified at length. contradicting Mrs Mary
Johnson and Edward Marcum who said
they had seen Smith and Abner a year be-
fore the killing Of Marcum in a stone
quarry near Marcum's home, armed and
with other armed men.
Lewis Hayes, the jackson clearinghouse
keeper, testified that Abner Smith and
Thomas White boarded with him during the
term of court in June. 1902 but he did not
remember whetherfhey were up as early in
the morning AS the hour fixed by the pros
ecution when armed men around Marcum's g
house prevented MArcum from coming out
to take a train. - is-5-
