NEW YORK, May 27-When the
trial OF Theo 5. Whitmore. accused
OF the murder OF his wife. Lena, was
resumed today in Jersey City, Joseph
Quinn, who was called 10 swear
that he saw Whitmore alight
from a Newark train in Jersey City at
1915 on the morning after the muir
der, said that he had identified the de-
fendaut first when he was 50 feet away
and that later he was within five
feet OF Whitmore. and heard him
make use OF the expression. You are
a cheap skate
On cross-examination. however,
Quinn admitted that, although he had
known Whitmore for three years-had
met him daily and talked with him
he didn't speak 10 him on this occa-
sion, or even nod; and then, prodded
by Simpson, counsel for the man &C
cused OF the swamp murder, he con-
fessed that his eyesight was bad, and
that he had failed TO qualify as a mo-
torman in the service OF the Inter.
borough Rapid Transit Co. because he
failed 10 pass the eye tests.
Two detectives, whom Quinn had
said were present on the occasion
mentioned. said they had never seen
Whltmore before.
The prosecution has maintained
that the defendants failure TO
identify his wifes dead body the
first time he was taken to the Harri-
son morgue points 20 purpose on his
part to allow the body 10 go uniden

told Whitmore not TO identify the

KIICHLI-DEVITT
Well Known Young People OF TOkna
Welded on Monday.

At the Catholic Church on Monday
morning, Father Pauwelyn performed
the ceremony which united the lives
and fortunes of Joseph H. Kiichli and
Miss Rose Dewitt, both of Tokna, and
among the most prominent residents
of the Lower Valley city. Ed. O'Neil
Jr., acted as best man, with Miss Dol
lie Burdick as bridesmaid, only the
Immediate relatives of the contracting
parties being present.
At 5 o'clock p. m. an elegant we'd
ding repast was served for the young
couple at the palatial home Of Harry
Helms, Mrs. Helms being sister of
the bride. Covers were laid for ff-
teen, and the tables and rooms were
handsomely decorated with profus-
ion of cut flowers.
Mr.. Kiichli is a Minneapolis boy,
but has been located at Tokna for
some eight years, having been engag-
ed in ranching and also connected with
the wholesale meat vending firm OF
Kiichli & Dewitt. The bride has spent
practically her entire life at Tokna.
Mrs. John Dewitt of Tokna and Mrs.
]. L. Kiichli of Minneapolis, mothers
of the bride and groom, were here to
attend the wedding. The young couple
received many and valuable presents
from their friends. In the evening
they were treated to a reminder in the
form of an Alpine chivari.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kiichli left Tuesday
for an eastern trip, and upon their re-
turn will be at home to their friends
at Tokna

The regular term of district court
was set to convene last Tuesday, but
owing to the general proclamation re-
garding Arbor Day, the session was ad-
journed until Wednesday by Judge
Loud.
The first important case heard was
that of the desperadoes connected with
the holdup of the Japs recently and the
burglary of the Rivenes- -Wester Hard
ware Store. Each of these culprits
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to
five years in the penitentiary at hard
labor. Henry LeBeau, implicated in
the same case by receiving some of the
stolen goods, received a Jail sentence
of six months.
The trial Of Frank Smith for second
degree assault drew a good deal of at
tention. 1t will be remembered that in
November last he knocked down Joe
Carroll in saloon, badly fracturing
the leg of the latter. Many witnesses
were called for both sides. 1t was
claimed by the defense that, as the de-
fendant had previously been acquitted
in a justice court, he could not again be
placed in jeopardy. The jury it seems,
however, relied good deal on the de-
fAndant's previous bad reputation and
gave hima a year in the pen.

THURSDAY. APRIL 80, 1908.

Sheriff Larson returned from his
Southern trip Monday morning, hav-
ing in charge B. S. Katsura and
Frank Ito, the two Japs whom
he arrested for grand larceny from
D. H. Freeman & Company last fall.
Katsura had been held at FL Paso,
Texas and Ito atTombstone, Arizona,
where Mr.. Larson received them
from the authorities. This case is
anotable example Of the good work
the local sheriff's office has been do
ing Of late. Circulars were sent
broadcast over the country End the
men were finally located as above
stated. From the time the sheriff
started north with his men, he was
a week on the road, and only in bed
once, and as may be imagined he
was nearly played . The men,
however, are now safely lodged in
the county bastile, and another
mark is placed to the credit of the
local officers.
It will be remembered that Sheriff
Larson had long trip when he went
after Kelley, tried at this term of
court. On the last trip to Ell Paso,
Tombstone coming and going, he
travelled a distance of nearly 5000
miles.
