HUSBAND OF DEAD WOMAN
On the Stand - Brought to Tears
When Picture of Wife and
Child is Shown.

Newcastle, Ind, November "a
! Wednesday was the second day OF
the trial of Haley Gipe on the charge
of numbering Mrs. Mollie Starbucb
and daughter, and the court room
was crowded to the doors. Prosecu-
tor jackson opened the case for the
State explaining that the State be-
lieves it will be able to show that
Gipe, was responsible for, Or had
connection with, the death of Mrs.
Starbuck. During the talk of the
prosecutor Gipe listened intently.
The first of a large number of wit
nesses for the State was William
Starbuck, husband of the dead wom-
an. For three hours he was ques-
toned by Attorney Mark L. Fork
ner and vividly described the circum-
stances of his going to town on the
night of July 8, to leave his oldest
daughter with her grandparents so
that she could attend Sunday school
the next day, that on arriving home
near 10 o'clock he found his wife
missing. His subsequent recital of
securing help and taking his wife
from the well and Of later fishing
out the body Of his child, was most
impressive.
Starbuck also said he had sold
some hogs few days before, but
that the money had been deposited
in the bank,and how later Haley Gipe
had been seen passing his house fire.
quently. The cross examination was
very strict, but the witness never
departed from his original story.
During the morning session at ev-
cry opportunity Miss Shepherd,
Gipe's sweetheart, spoke a few
words of encouragement to him and
she was answered with a smile by
the prisoner. At 4 O'Clock Attorney
Brown completed the cross examin-
alton of Starbuck.
At the conclusion there was a most
pathetic incident. The photographs
lad been taken Of his wife and child
IS they lay side by side in their cof-
in and this was given to him to iden-
;ify. One glance, and the bereaved
broke down and wept bit
erly. Tears glistened in the eyes Of |
many in the audience.
John Hutson, who was the nearest |
lelghbor to the Starbucks, and was
'alled to assist the woman from the
veil, was the next witness. DIR. Pat
on gave testimony Of professional
lature mostly. Court adjourned at
o'clock.
The defense is attempting to do
way with the murder theory and al
o to prove that the bruises on Mrs.
tarbuck's face and body were caus-
d by the Jagged edges of boards in

REID FIELD
RIOTERS MUCH IN EVIDENCE

Yesterday afternoon on Reid field
the Richmond volunteer team went
down to defeat before the Earlham
College eleven.
There has long been a strong spir-
it of rivalry existing between the
two teams SO that yesterdays con-
test was Of great interest to the peo-
pie in general.
The weather was ideal and the
field, though a bit dry, was in very
good shape.
While the town boys were perhaps
bit heavier, this was more than
onset by Earlham's superior team
work. In considering the results of
the game it must be remembered that
the Richmond boys had never until
yesterday morning been on the field
together, while Earlham has played
since September and for the past two
weeks has had nothing to do but
practice for the Thanksgiving game.
The dope on the game was about 40
to 0 in favor of Earlham and the
small score Of 16 to 0 was a surprise
to everyone.
Neither side played particularly
good football The city men showed
their lack Of training and the Earl
ham men seemed to be afraid of
them.
Peacock, who played full back for
the city team played a star game and
though he had no support went
through Earlham's s line time after
time for gains. Ed Welson, quarter,
and Morgan, left end, also played
well. R. Wilson, quarter back and
Laurence, left end, were . the stars
for Earlham.
There was good crowd present
and throughout the game the root

MARRIED FOR TWELVE YEARS
When They Discovered They Were

was made they came from their homt

Twenty-three years ago Mary E.
Hoover was married to DR.. George
N. Lowe, of Cambridge City, known
throughout this section of the coun-

prominent in the social life of CAM
bridge City, and for few years liv-
ed happily together. Then adversity
overlook them. They became pen
niless and were ostracised socially,
and domestic unhappiness resulted.
Notifying his wife that their paths
must hereafter be apart, DR.. Lowe,
taking nothing but his medicine cases
with him, departed, and his wife
never saw his face again. No letters
passed between them and for many
years neither knew whether the. 9TH
er was alive or dead.
After years had passed and Mrs.
Lowe had heard nothing Of her hus-
band, she received and encouraged
the attentions of anothed. For sew
eral years she refused to consent to
become the wife of John Albertson,
not knowing whether or not she was
the wife Of DR.. Lowe.
Almost accidentally Mrs. Lowe
heard that DR.. Lowe had located in
Jewell county, Kansas, had regained
his fortune and was married again.
Putting aside her sorrow she con-
sented to become the wife Of Mr..
Albertson, and they were married in
1892. For twelve years they lived
happily together and nothing mar
red their contented life until few
lays ago, when the executor of the
will of DR.. Lowe came to Wayne
county and told the story of the ply
'ician's death.
The investigation made by the ex-
.cutor revealed the fact that DR..

In the Pocahontas coal fields the managers and owners are nearly all from the north, many coming from Pennsylvania and Ohio. and there could hardly be one word of dispute between them and the greatest south erner of them all in regard to the worth of the negro, writes George U. Fowler in the Engineering Magazine. First of all, they reiterate Miss Ophelia's opinion of his shiftlessness, adding thereto the belief that he be- longs to an inferior race-that he or dinarily natures in early manhood and does not grow after that time. In short, that he is a child in his actions and ways of thinking, and Is an adult in physical strength only, and should therefore be treated as child as far as it is possible to do so. At the same time he is keenly alive to his rights and promptly quits work the moment he feels that he is being imposed upon. This condition of undeveloped mentality or childiShness displays it self especially in the uneasy desire to be on the move and to seek for diff fereht environment, though it may be but temporary. It is especially dis played by the desire to ride on the cars, ands though there is no reason on earth for it, he is everlastingly on the move. This is most curiously ex- emplifed by the fact that the one place in the region where it is possible and easy to hold the negro laborer, is the work train.
