pulled off.
Witness stated that he is thirty
six years OF age, and that he had
been married twelve years. He had
been talked to about the case since
he d been here, but h d not
talked of it. He had read a good
deal of the case in the newspapers
since he had heen here. Was IN
Memphis few days ago, where he
met two young men from Union
City; didn't meet them by appoint
ment. Asked if expenses OF his
trip from Asheville we're not paid
by Edwards, said they probably
would be. Denied that Edwards
furnished him money. His expen-
ses of coming here last May had
been refunded. He had been paid
hundred and fifty dollars for COM
ing here last May. He had rela.
tives here, so his hotel bill cost him
nothing. He expected hundred
and fifty dollars for the January
trip here, and hundred and fifty
for this trip. making four hundred
and fifty dollars for the three trips.
Denied that he was to get ten dol
lars day.
Witness said that if he ever met

Edwards was introduced to Miss
Walker, Weaver and Miss kellogg
and Colonel Edwards and Miss
Walker went riding in surrey.
Weaver denied talking to Mrs. Gull
len over the phone when he called
up the girl and told her that he
wished to introduce her to Ed
wards. They drove to Sulphur
Springs, and then to Battery Park
Hotel, where they had supper.
They carried along a dozen bottles
of beer on the trip, and the ladies
drank of it. Witness said that he
saw lot of hugging and kissing
on the trip.
Before supper at Battery Park
they had cocktails, which with the
beer they had drank, made them
jolly. Then Roy Martin came into
the dining room and they had a
round of drinks with him. After
supper they went to the Log Cab
in, and had champagne, the women
joining in all the drinking. A man
named Howard joined them, and
the crowd got home about eleven
or twelve o'clock.
That night they planned tally
ho ride for the following day, on
which Mrs. Cullen and Weaver oc-
cupied one seat, Miss NeH and
Howard another, and Edwards,
Roy Martin and Miss Walker an
other seat. There was also a me-
gro boy bugler along. They left
Lynn Oak abouteight or nine O'Clock
and picked up Miss Neff at her
boarding house. A lot Of wine and
beer were stored in the tallyho, and
cocktails. One of the horses had
fit, and they all got out of the tally
ho. This was several miles from
Asheville. Roy Martin went off
with Mrs. Cullen, Weaver with
Miss Neff. and Colonel Edwards
and Lola went off in another direc-
ton. Witness said the crowd was
what he would call free and easy,
and that most everything went.
Weaver said there was a lot of
hugging and kissing, and easy
talk. Didn't know that Edwards |
gave Lola a drink out of a bottle,
but there was bottle of sweet
wine along, and of this Miss Walk
er drank quite freely, and this he
believed was what made her sick.
They got home that night about
twelve o'clock. The following
night man named Evans,
whom the witness characterized as
! fine looking old gentleman, Mrs.
Cullen, Edwards and Lola, Weaver
md another lady, whose name was
never mentioned, went out in tai.

boarders leaving Lynn Oak" or
account of the reputation of the
house.
While a boarder in the house
never saw Mrs. Cullen or Lola dc
anything wrong. w. N. Cooper
was a visitor to the house, as were
two lumbermen from Chicago,
friends of the landlady.
This deposition afforded some
amusement to the court and jurors
by the witty answers. about the
first thing in the way of levity that
has crept into the case, and was
like a ray of sunshine to the tired
jurors.
The deposition of Mrs. Hum
phreys, wife of Jno. D., was then
introduced. She knew Miss Maui
dina Lewis while she boarded at
Mrs. Cullen's. Had never been to
the theater but once with Mrs.
Cullen. Mrs. Cullen and Miss
Maudina Lewis were friends.
Miss Lewis came into her room
frequently, but unlimited, and
they sometimes locked their door
to keep her out. w. n. Cooper
and H. C. Allen called on Mrs. Gull
ZEN, as did two travelling men. She
conducted the boarding house for
Mrs. Cullen, while the latter was
attending Mardi Gras iu New Or
lesns. Mrs. Cullen never refused
TO take a drink of whiskey with
Mr.. Humphreys when she was in
their room and Mr.. Humphreys
was taking a drink, according to
doctors orders.
WEAVER FOR DEFENSE.
Dick Weaver, the liveryman of
Asheville, N. c., aud Colonel Ed

stand Saturday morning, and his
cross-examination began the 6rst
thing after dinner.
Weaver stated that he was rear

teen years, and has been in the liv-
cry business about thirteen. He
has partner named e. G. Cham

is Chambers d. Weaver.
Weaver became acquainted with
Mrs. Cullen and Miss Walker in
1908, and got acquainted
with Edwards about August 9 of
that year. He was introduced to
by friend of the latter.
He considered the reputation Of Mrs
Cullen and Miss Walker bad, as to
and virture. Asked as TO
the character of Miss Walker, he
said that he considered her gay
girl, objected to and overruled.
She was free and gay with men.
He introduced Colonel Edwards to
Miss Walker at the suggestion of
/ friend of Edwards.
On first meeting the Colonel he
.ook lunch with him, and after the

to the women: couldn't name any
one whom he heard speak detri-

things. One or two other depo-
sitions OF about the same words
and statements were introduced.
The weather has been very warm
the past two days, making martyrs
of all compelled to sit throughout
the day in the hot courtroom.
FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
The deposition of Hiram Lind
sey, one the star witnesses in the
Walker Ed wards case, was taken
nP this afternoon on the reassem-
bling of court and caused a legal
battle of an hour or more between
opposing counsel, the trouble aris-

was taken, by COUNSEL for the
plaintiff. 1t is wanted to prove
by the latter deposition the cbarac-

reserved his decision until IN the
morning as to whether or not the
should be read.
Jno. D. Humphreys testified that
he and his wife boarded at Mrs.
Cullen's about three years ago. He
did not consider the character of
Mrs. Cullen very good, nor her rep

strip off each of the back edges Of the
cover and then lay the covers on the
piece of cloth, each one-eighth inch
away from the space equal to the thick

dotted lines, Fig. /.
Cut the cloth around the covers, leav-

Paste the cloth to the covers In this
position and then turn them over the

smoothly. Cut third piece Of card

when all parts are thoroughly dry glue

II the paper cover of the book still

paste it on the front side of the bind

done with the paper title back, both

OUR NATIONAL FLAG.
The stars. the Stripes and the Red
White and blue.

The stars, the Stripes and the Red,
White and blue.
The name Of Mrs. Betsy Ross is so
intimately associated with our national
flag that the belief that she designed II
has become common. 1t seems to be
true, however, that she made the first
one ever floated. Briefly stated the
facts are as follows: Washington was
called to Philadelphia from York in
June, 1916, to advise with congress on
the state of affairs, and during that Wis
1t he was requested to make sugges-
tions as to the design for flag. Accom-
panied by Colonel George Ross and
Robert Morris as committee Of con-
gress, Washington called on Mrs. Betsy
Ross and asked her to make flag
from drawing that they showed her.
The drawing was rough one, and
Washington, at Mrs. Ross suggestion,
remade 1t. One of her suggestions was
that the stars should be five pointed
instead of six pointed. as they were In
the original drawing. The flag thus
designed and made was adopted by
congress. The thirteen stripes symbol,
ized the thirteen colonies. As to the
colors red, and white, 1t is likely that
they were used because the army flag
had been red and the navy flag white,
The blue field with white stars repre-
sented the sky, with a new constella-
ton.

You have all heard stories about live
toads that were found lmbedded In
rocks, where, 1t was said, they might
have been for years. Naturalists say
that these stories are either myths or
exaggeratlons, for the tOads could not
possibly exist for an indefinite time
under such conditions. They have,
however, considered the stories of suf-
ficient interest to warrant them In test
Ing their truth. 1t Is said, for example,
that a French naturalist lmbedded a
toad In plaster of paris and found 1t
alive at the end of twenty eight
months. We all dislike to hear Of such
experiments with living things, for
they are not without an element of
cruelty, but the cause Of science some
times requires that they should be

There comes time when every boy

with only paper cover 1t is a hard
