but are more hideous than Firms. In
fact, they look like German dwarfs

However, as the first Jap l came near

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Nan Patter-
son before the bar of justice is seem
ingly as sure of her innocence being
proven as she has been during all
the long weary months of her i'm
patient waiting in the Tombs.
When her big blue eyes are lifted
to the serious golden-shielded ones
of Judge Davis 1t is with the assured
expression that he could never be-
lieve her guilty of the hideous crime
with which she had SO long been
charged.
Her round, girlish face, untraced
with lines of deep emotions, pro-
claim that she knows that each tales
man believes in her and in her limo
cence.
The girl, who walks to the prison
er's dock with the air of one going
TO a marriage altar, has strong belief
In herself and In her powers. She
shows it in many ways. 1t is ex-
pressed in her voice, in the way she
holds her head, in every gesture. Her
worldly experience, despite her few
years of %, is large, and she knows
what wins men She looks at them
directly, frankly, and asserts her in
nocence in every look. She has never
feared them, and she does not now.
There is nothing of regret or hui
mility in the manner of Nan Patter-
son, and her bearing in court is the
same as 1t was when pleasing a huge
audience of pleasure seekers, instead
of a small selected one compose ed
largely of judicial minds. She be-
lieves that she was the victim of a
cruel circumstance, that Dame Fate
dealt bitterly with her on that fair
June morning when Caesar" Young

steam and to his death, and never for
one instant is her bearing other thar
