EIDOLONS FIGURE IN COURT
Continued from first page.
wALKER. EDWARDS suIT.

W Nv AhQc oO1As
The first witness put on the stand
Wednesday morning was Mrs. Annie
Bauer, of Chicago, aunt Of the plain
tiff Before the questioning began the
jury was excluded and Judge Felix
Moore, of counsel for plaintiff, made
complaint that newspapers had been
dropped in front OF the jury, but that
the same had been secured by the
Deputy Sherlffs who are guarding the
jury, and that none of the jurors had
read the papers. Judge Swiggart, Of
counsel for defendant, deprecated the
thoughtless action of the one who
dropped the papers, and Judge Maid
en-, after the jury was recalled again,
warned them against communicating
with anyone but each other, and to
read no newspapers should the oppor-
tunty present itself.
There was not much Of interest In
the testimony of Mrs. Bauer, who
told of her past life, places Of resi-
dence and other minor details, includ-
ing the school life of the plaintiff.
She stated that Mr.. Walker, father of
the plaintiff, died at the Great East
ern Hospital in Chicago; that she had
engaged in the millinery business this
year, as had Lola. Witness believed
that Mrs. Walker had married man
named Short, and that she was Mrs.
Short, but that she had always called
her Walker. Short had never lived
with her to her knowledge. Bauer
had operated saloon at 1s4S Wabash
avenue, Chicago, and was also pro-
prietor OF the Columbus Hotel, same
city. Witness emphatically denied
knowing that the houses run by her
husband were of III repute, where dis.
reputable characters congregated and
met. Witness said that at a meeting
she had with Thos. Flynn, in Chi.
cago, that Flynn had said that if the
defendant secured his deposition that
he would have TO pay for it. Witness
stated that Flynn was dlshonorably
discharged policeman. Questioned as
TO what Flynn was to testify in the
case was objected to and sustained.
Witness said that she knew Mrs. Ellis
Melvin at Beardstown, ILL.,, before
Melvin went TO Chicago and took
charge of the McCampbell Hotel,
where Lola boarded awhile. Mrs.
Walker had never worked for Mrs
Melvin. The maiden name of the
witness mother was Miss Abby Too

character sustained, witness saying
that Miss Walkers conduct was al.
ways exemplary. Witness told Of as
sisting Miss Walker in carrying her
trunk from the first TO the second
story when the latter left to join Ed.
wards n New York. Witness said
Edwards called to see Lola frequently
took her riding and driving.
Edith Fyles deposition was read.
Miss Fyles was one of the members of
that memorable tallyho ride, when
Col Edwards gave her port wine which
made her drunk. Witness went from
Columbus, Ohio. with her sister to
Asheville for TIL e latter's health

self as a lady. Said that several bot
ties of beer were drank on the tallyho
ride, and that another bottle, sup
posed to contain an intoxicant, was
given to Lola by Edwards, and that
she acted queerly after she had drank
it, and that when tn e bottle was
passed to Lola's aunt, Mrs. Cullen,
Immediately after Lola had drank.
she smelled of it and threw it into
ditch.
There were several dispositions, and
one of the main questions was as TO
w. N. Cooper's attention to Mrs. Gull
len. The. answers were that Cooper
called at the house on general visit
The witnesses had supposed Mrs. Gull
len widow, and didn't know that she
had husband living in Chicago, but
that Mrs. Cullen had always conduct
ed herself decorously, and several of
those who had made dispositions had |
never seen her receive attentions from
any young man. Miss Laura Fyle's
deposition was then read, and, like |
the others, many objections were made
by counsel for defendant, some of |
which were overruled and some were
not. Witness told about the same
tale as the others as to the respecta-
bility of Mrs. Cullen's boarding house
in Asheville.

A Strange Awakening.

Senator Bailey, of Texas, in describ-
ing a terrific fight that he had once
seen on the streets of New York, said
that the hubbub and confusion remind
ed him Of an episode that happened
on a train.
"on a certain train" he said, "a
very large, muscular man fell asleep,
and annoyed all the passengers by
snoring Tremendously. A drummer,
carrying half a lemon in his hand,
tiptoed over to a little boy who sat
behind the snorer
Son said the drummer. I am a
doctor, and if that mar doesn't stop
snoring he'll die of apoplexy. Watch
your chance, and as soon as his
mouth opens a little wider, lean over
and squeeze this lemon into it.
The boy obeyed."

FOR THE BEDROOM.
PRETTY THINGS ARE OFFERED
IN PROPULSION.

Favor-cover for the Pillows
Bolster Rolls for Furnishings

Various materials for making bed
spreads may be found in the shops
in the heavy dimities. c%retonnes. den
inns, ART tickings and linen tanetas.
Some of the newest spreads are Of
white t~affetas printed with different
flowers TO harmonic with the fur
nishings OF the room. A spread with
a border OF cretonue 70 match the
border on the curtains, and ever the

also quite the fashion. They the
beautiful as we'll as durable. There
is nothing prettier than a bed GOV
ering entirely Of white. For those
who want their bed to look dressy.
many new patterns in lace and net
coverings are shown.
With the return of o~ld-fashioned
furniture, the knitted bed-spread is
also somewhat in favor. As a rule,
the work is done in squares that are
fastened together and then finished
with a border of plain knitting or
c%rocheting. This sort of spread is
durable, but it is very heavy to laun-
der.
A small spread for the pillows is
just as necessary as the large one.
Very often the bed-spread is made
long enough to cover the pillows.
For those who do not care for the
old-style pillow sham, a is
made of an oblong strip TO match
the spread. When this sort of cover
ing is used, the pillows should be
laid fiat on the bed. If one has plenty
of room the pillows may be stored
through the day, and a bolster roll
of pasteboard covered with material
to match the spread, a be substi
tuted. These bolster rolls, however
are used rather when the bed is
dressed in cretonnes than when in
the simple white.
