For some days an absolute silence pre-

hands clasped and held face high. then
a fash. a puff OF smoke and the report
of a revolver broke the stiffness Of the
morning.
Hazleton was the most important wit
ness placed on the stand by the defense,
and the efforts Of the prosecutor to shake
his brief but vital testimony ended in
failure.
Then the defendant herself went to
the witness chair and told the whole
story OF her relations with Young. IL

crowd in the courtroom-as she repeat

This. in brief. is the story Of the life
OF Nan Patterson, or that pert Of it that
had an ultimate bearing on the death
OF Caesar Young, and the trial that has
been q three times nine-days talk in
New York and probably throughout The
country.
Little did she suspect when she en-
barked upon her theatrical career and
her life Of pleasure and gaiety of the trag-
ic ending and the accompanying sorrow
and pain in store for her, or she would
have undoubtedly reconsidered the mat

alton was too strong or his Will power
too weak, for he never succeeded, and
she was his friend and companion TO the
day OF his death
Young began his career on the Pacific
coast as a foot racer. and was said to
have been one Of the fastest runners that
the world has ever known. From the
cinder path he drifted to the race track,
and his luck from the beginning was
phenomenal
Her Fatal Beauty.
Nan Patterson's beauty has been the
cause Of other troubles in which lives
have been forfeited. An actor in another
who had proposed to her became insane
over her refusal and committed suicide
IN her presence. Another admirer Of
hers killed himself on the coast.
Nan Patterson remained in the west
with Young until last spring They Wis
tied The tracks at Los Angeles. Oakland
and other prominent racing centers on
the coast. and returned east IN March
for the first time since their meeting.
Young returned 10 the coast the fol-
lowing month, and it was but few days
before she was speeding westward in re-

All this was brought out in the testi-
mony at the celebrated trial. Seldom
were they separated by a very great dis
lance, and then only when it was IN
avO.dable
During all this time he tried to hide
his relations with the Patterson girl
from his wife. His friends and relatives
pleaded with him to give up the show
girl, and finally induced him TO agree to
take a trip to Europe. where they hoped
she could orwould not follow, and where
he might forget her.
The Fatal Shooting.

that the tragedy occurred. He had seen
her the evening previous, told her Of his
proposed trip and. according to her
story. had asked her TO follow and meet
him in London. She had given him an
indefinite answer, but had agreed to meet
him the next morning and see him Of.

eand the praise called forth by her good
looks, as she grew older. turned her
thoughts ia d,reccors wholly opposed
to that inteBded for her by her parents
and before she was many years in her
teens she went TO New York and OBJ
taiied a place in the chorus.
Stage life caused her to forget the re-
ligious training she had received. The
glitter Of the spangles and the gay life
of the actor folk appealed TO her, and she
decided to become a great actress.
Surely there was nothing harmful
behind the footlights. she thought
Fine clothes and good time" were
to her liking.
She was handsome in fare and form
and it was not long before young scions
of wealthy families and elderly men OF
means who haunt the bald head" row
began TO haunt the stage door and make
her acquaintance.
The flowers and champaign suppers
they furnished were also not amiss.
Jewels and gems were showered on her
and more than one, smitten With her
beauty. laid their hearts at her feet
and begged her hand in marriage
But she refused them all, and finally
married young man in the profession
named Martin.
Her Meeting with Young.
The combining bonds of matrimony
were evidently not to her liking, and
when "Floradora,' a musical comedy
which had gained great popularity in
London mainly through the famous
sextette, was imported. she applied for
and obtained a position in the front row.
The company was organized 10 tour
the country, and was to extend t. the
Pacific coast. This gave her an oppor-
tunity to visit California, something she
had always longed for.
II was on this trip that she met YoGng,
whose tragic death has caused her so
much misery and sorrow.
Young was a prominent and success
full hoTseman and bookmaker. He had
horses running on nearly all Of the prom
inent tracks of the country, and was re-
puted TO be worth half a million dollars.
Although a married man. he INN edi-
ately fell a victim to the charms Of the
beautiful and vivacious show girl On
their arrival in San Francisco he in
stalled her in a handsome fat in Oak
land. across the bay. and for some
months led a dual existence. Anything
she wished for was at her command.
During the trial it was shown that dur
ing their acquaintance he had given her
thousands of dollars.
Leaves Stage for Young.
While on the coast she sued for di-
vorce from her husband at his sugges-
ton, and also deserted the stage.
With all his faults, Young maintained
an outward show Of responsibility, liv-
ing in a pretentious home in an exclu-
sive section of San Francisco. He had
i. a certain respect for his wife. and when
she discovered the double existence he
had been leading. he was driven almost
crazy by the exposure. With the reck-
lessness of a man insane, he entered up
on a long debauch, and lost a fortune on
the block before he recovered himself.
According to his racing partner, he re-
peatedly tried to sever HIS unholy rela-
lions with the chorus girl, but his infatu-
