(Snecial TO The Herald.l

Washington, d. c., Nov. 1S.-The
opening testimony offered in defense
of Mrs. Bradley was without sensa-
tional features, although some of it was
of such a character. as should be con-
fined wholly within the covers of medI-
cal treatises. Despite the unprintable
nature of this testimony nearly 100 wo-
men in the audience listened to it with
evident eagerness and laundering for
more.
Condition After Shooting.
Newspaper Reporter Louis A. McMa-
hon, in an effort to sustain defense's
theory of insanity, testified that When
he interviewed Mrs. Bradley after the
shooting she appeared to him as per-
son whose brain had been shaken at
its base" This description being OBJ
jected to, he described Mrs. Bradley
as being on the verge of a mental and
physical collapse, and that only puff
of wind would have been required to
blow her into mental oblivion. Other
newspaper men told of Mrs. Bradley'S
dazed condition after the shooting of
Brown.
Treatment in Salt Lake.
DR.. E. w. Whitney was permitted to
testify only to such incidents connected
with his long treatment of Mrs. Brad
ley as would show her physical condi-
ton, and was not allowed to go into
details concerning the character of the
trouble for which treatment was neces-
sary While DIR. Whitney was on the
stand Mrs. Bradley seemed deeply af-
fected, especially when he told of her
delirium during one of her periods of
illness. The testimony of DR.. Whit
ney was apparently introduced to cor
Toborate the story which Mrs. Bradley
alone can tell
Drs. Shut and Johnson, local sur
geons, testified concerning Mrs. Brad
leys condition after she was taken TO
fail, and of the surgical treatment made
necessary because of criminal Oper-
alton to which their patient had been
subjected before coming to Washing
ton.
Colonel Kaighn Shut Off.
Colonel M NJ. Kaighn attempted to
tell of converse tons with Mrs. Bradley
in which she urged him to use his in
fiuence with Brown to marry her, but
District Attorney Baker objected and
the testimony was not admitted. 1t is
expected, however, that the defense will
be permitted to introduce testimony
which will enable Colonel Kaighn's ev-
idence TO be admitted in confederation.
Mrs. Bradley's mother, Mrs. Maddi-
son, testified briefly concerning an in
jury her daughter had received when
years old, which apparently had affect
ed her mental condition for many years
afterward.
The strain of the trial apparently is
having telling effect upon the defendant
and her distressed appearance eXcites
much pity and sympathy

COOPER
SCORCHED HIN
Senator Hopkins of Illinois Ran
Into a Community of Re-
organized Saints.

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-The Tribune says:
United States Senator Hopkins will
try to forget the last time he discussed
the Reed Smoot case in a Mormon
community. This was last Friday
night at a dinner he attended at Plano,
Ill, an old stamping ground of the Lat
ter-day Saints.
Some time ago Postmaster George
Faxon invited the senator to address
the members and guests of the Mara
mess club on the United States Senator
Smoot charge of pOiygamy. The sem
ator, who opposed the expulsion, ac-
cepted with alacrity. Plano, with its
old stone Mormon church, seemed to
offer safe proposition as could be de-
sired.
Spoke at Great Length.
The dinner was attended by rs per-
sons. Senator Hopkins made a lengthy
address, reviewing the part he took in
the successful opposition TO the expul-
sion of Smoot. At its close DR.. 1. E.
Bennett, president Of the club, called
on Elder Cooper, leader of the local
church of the Latter-day Saints for a
few remarks.
In the course of an hours talk Elder
Cooper made it apparent that the posi-
ton of Senator Hopkins in defending
Smoot was disapprOved by the Plano
Mormons, who disavOw pOlygamy. He
pitched into the senator so acrimoni-
ously that the latter lost his temper
and called the elder a 'bigot."
After a heated cOllOquy the senator
was induced to withdraw this appella-
ton

While Life Lasted.
Watering the Oyster.

No doubt many readers who are I'M
familiar with the habits and ways of
oysters were surprised and panied to
read that some Chicago dealers had
been arrested for watering their oys-
ters
No doubt they pictured the humane
dealer leading the thirsty bivalve to
the water tank and inviting 1t to
drink heartily. Perhaps they wonder
ed if the authorities expected them to
treat the shellfsh to champagne.
Such opinions, however. could only
be held by people who were laboring
under a misapprehension. The foxy
dealers were only pouring a few ex-
ira gallons of water into the barrel
SO that it would measure out more
quarts when the purchaser came with
a little tin pail and his money for q
Sunday feed. The customers do not
want that. 1t Is too much like buying
church stews with no religion thrown
in.

Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 1.-THE one hun
dsred and fifty men who, under the
name of the Sixty fifth general assem-
bly. decide what the laws of Indiana
shall be, for the next two years at
least, met and organized preparatory
to taking up the work There was
full representation of every county Of
the state at the opening, with the ex
ceptions of Marshall and Kosciusko,
whose senator, John w. Parks, is too
I'll to attend. Fully one hundred an
swered to roll call in the house.
Republican House Majority Small.
The Sixty-fifth is expected to be both
important and interesting; important
for the reforms pledged by the plat
forms on which men of both parties
reached their seats in the body, and
interesting because of the smallness of
the Republican majority in the house,
which assures anything but a sleepy
session In the senate the Republic
ans are to the Democrats as 81 is to
10, but III the house the difference is
only that between 90 and AZ, and the
AZ are about as active and wide awake
as ever occupied the west side Of the
house chamber.
Caucus Nominees Elected.
Both senate and house organized,
electing the officers selected at the Re
publican caucuses. Representative
Branch, the newly e1ected speaker Of
the house, presided throughout the
greater part Of the session. Both houses
adjourned shortly before noon to meet
in Joint session at p. m. to hear Gov
ernor Hanly personally read his mes
sage. a document Of some $4,000
words.
Lobby We Have Always with Us.
Crowded galleries of men and wo-
mon saw the opening, and politicians
and amateur statesmen from miles
around were about the side-lines. No
ticeable too, was the always-to-be-
found lobby. of various sorts and sizes
of influence The lawmakers. in their
best Sunday clothes, had no reason
to doubt that the eyes of the state
were upon them.
