The officer took him to a restaurant
and gave him a meal and when he
brought him back they gave him some
tobacco
He slept in a cell that night and
about eight days thereafter. as he said,
he was taken upstairs to court. Being
asked if he would plead guilty lie said,
Il am not guilty" Then he was taken
down and after that taken over to the
Jail.
ROSS-EXAMINED.
Mr. Fleming, coached by Sheriff
Brown. subjected the defendant to a
rigorous discrimination. AS to his
statement of pleading in the police
court he was asked if he had not,
instead, consented to be tried in the
higher court. His answer was that he.
did not understand English then as
we'll as now, but understood they ask
ed him through the Interpreter if he
was guilty. Someone read a paper and
the judge asked him if he had done so
and he said no.
Defendant denied that on the night
of the 18th, in Vidas office. he had
conversation with a Korean from
Eva
Asked if he did not upbraid his &C
quaintance from Eva for having pro-
duced that revolver in evidence against
him (Mr. Fleming showing the
weapon), Kong SAID:
The only Korean I saw in the sta
ton was ChOy and he is spy at the
station"
He denied that he saw the Korean
from Eva since March II when he
went down to his place and slept with
him. until he saw him in court on
Tuesday
Defendant would admit nothing
about those present at the station or
deals other than as he had testified
on direct examination. He asserted
that he had asked all the guards on the
three watches for water and food and
often asked. and each one had said he
couldn't give the necessaries. He
couldn't get any food until ne was
taken to the Chinese restaurant.

POETRY BY G.. A. HICKS

There is a higher law than human Will
A force omnipotent-perhapS Devine
which all the Universe doth fill
Wherever sun or moon doth shine
Il holds the PLANETS in their places
And lends the stars their shining faces.
Whence came this rolling mass OF matter
We call our common matter earth
with seas and streams OF living water
Did It at sometime have birth?
And shall we call its mother sun
Or springs it from some other one!
whence comes our lives by nature given!
Came we as grass grows on the sodE
Did life originate in distant Heaven
A gift unmasked boon from God
And shall we have a life eternal
Or will it be death Internal
Is there place Of peace and rest
Where sin and sorrow never come
Where small and great alike are blessed
And wandering souls may find home
Where "knee must bow" and tongue
confess?
My longing spirit answers yes
