dies. The testimony was about
the same as that brought out last
December, when VIM. Spaugh,
il, was tried and convicted for the
murder OF Sheriff Polk and sem
fenced to be hanged here February
t6 last. When the defendant was
brought into court this morning he
was pale, and seemed to be worri-
ed for the first time. His brother
! William was the first witness this
morning. He testified that he was
sitting on the front porch of his
home, May %, 1905, when Sheriff
Polk came to the gate. The sher-
iff told him he wanted to see him.
He answered, Il know what you
want: you have a warrant for me-
Sheriff Polk replied, 1T makes no
difference what l have The wit
ness said he then got up and went
into the house, followed by the
sheriff. He looked back and saw
Sheriff Polk standing in the door
pointing his pistol at him. He
threw up his hands and said, Don't
shoot" After the sheriff shot at
him he ran out of the house into
the yard, and he heard several
more shots. He was joined in a
few moments by Arthur, who had
a shot gun and Winchester. When
they made their escape to Shop
herd Mountain he did not know
that Sheriff Polk was killed until
Arthur told him. When asked
what pistol he had on him when
he was captured, he admitted that
it was Sheriff Folks, and said that
Arthur had given it to him. Ar
thur Spaugh's testimony CONTRA
dicted Bills in several particulars.
He freely admitted the killing. He
said he was standing in the kitch-
en- when Sheriff Polk came in with
his pistol pointed at Bill. He call
ed to the sheriff to stop, and when
he did not do so picked up his shot
gun and firedSat him, but missed
him. Polk then fired at Bill, bu'
only once. He (witness) fred the
second time with the shotgun, al
instant after Polk had fired at Bill
This time he hit him. Polk fel
down on his face on the floor ant
when he acted as if he would ge'
up he, witness, ran around thu
stove to where he was lying, drew
his pistol and shot him twice more
He then took Folks pistol that hac
fallen to the floor, grabbed up tn
shotgun, taking it and the Win
chester, ran out the back way ant
made his escape. Arthur denied
having told DR.. Farmhouse, VIII
dressed his wounds when he wa
captured, that he had taken on
shot with a shotgun and misse'
him, but got him the second time
He denied that he had told Sherii
Marshall or DR.. Marshall that h
had killed Sheriff Polk. His evi
dence, however, strongly corrobo
rated that of DR.. Farmhouse. AT
ter the state had introduced sever
al witnesses in rebuttal, the de
tense rested. 1t is generally con
coded that the state has made
stronger case than it made at viii
liam's trial, and that the defense i
weaker. Court adjourned at moo
to-day, and the judge is writin

of the firemen at Enola and Harris

extra four cents an hour to assist the
