STRAIN TELLS ON
O0R0TH OLSEN.

OAKLAND, Oct. 36.-Overcome by the
continued strain OF direct and crossex-
animation to which she has been sub
Jected, Dorothy Olsen, the accuser of
Lester @. McNulty. for the first time
broke down on the witness stand to-
day while under crosse amination by
Attorney A. L. Friek. Weeping bitterly
she was led from the courtroom to the
District Attorneys office. where for
some time she struggled to regain her
composure.
1t was while being questioned about
having accepted money from the father
and brother of McNulty that Miss Olsen
broke down. but it was not so much
the questions of Attorney Frick as the
result of the long strain on the witness
stand that caused her to give way to
her feelings. As soon as she was suf-
ficiently recovered she resumed her tes-
timony.
McNulty's attorney today succeeded
in leading the prosecuting witness to
contradict some details of the testi-
mony given by her at the previous
trials of the case regarding the ac-
ceptance by her of the money paid by
McNulty. But her testimony on the
salient features of the case was un-
shaken She readily identified the pa
per signed by her, declaring that the
accused was not the man who had as
saulted her, and also a receipt for $500,
signed by her, for money paid to her by
MeNulty Sr- to prevent the prosecution
of his son.
Late this afternoon Attorney Frick
announced that he could not finish with
the witness today and adjournment
was taken to 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning.

hold the record for novelty in the mat

that the young woman maintains ner-
self as student by the income de-
rived from selling queen bees, which she
raised herself. a an apiary in Ventura

The bee raising industry is no new
thing to her. as she is rated as an ex-

her for rank with the entomologists of
the university although her interests

partment She is paid 81 each for her
