Madison, Neb., Feb. 39-From a
staff correspondent: Herman Boche's
testimony in his own murder trial was
set down on the informal program of
the defense for yesterday afternoon
but when the proper time came for
BOche to step into the witness stand
the afternoon was so far advanced that
the clock on the court room wall
swung past the o'clock hour.
Boche's story went over till this
morning. 1t was the judgement of
the defense that Herman Boche, nat
urally under a terrible strain, should
have a nights rest to refresh him
for the ordeal of the witness stand
there TO come under the fire of the
prosecuting attorneys. The court was
asked to adjourn until 8 o'clock this
morning.
When the final recess was taken yes
terday the way had been pretty well
prepared for the story of the man who
shot Frank farmer last May. His
wife, his only sister and his son had
testified. They followed a long list
of witnesses called under the direct
ion of Senator Allen, with NJ. ID. Tyler
and Burt Mapes, attorney in court for
the defendant.

Had Threatened Suicide
In the course of the testimony by the
witnesses before the commission at
J the court house this morning, it was
found that the young woman harbored
the intention of committing suicide. A
party at whose home she had worked
as domestic, stated that she had at
different times spoken of suicide while
at their home and was dissuaded from
it by being advised as to the wicked
ness and folly of such an act.
For sometime past she has been un-

queer actions and her melancholy dis
position. On recent Sunday she was
caught in the act of attempting self
destruction, having broken coal oil

DISCRETION CHARGE
Infants Maternal Grandfather
Files Information.

Abba, Feb. 1S.-There is trouble in
an Abba home as the result of a
young couple leaving their Is months
old baby boy at the home of the moth
ers parents. The couple referred to
are Mr.. and Mrs Henry Griffin and
they are charged with desertion in an
information that was issued late yes
terday afternoon. A peculiar condi-
ton has arisen in connection with the
case. Mr. Koontz, father Of Mrs Grit
fin, had the information issued and
when the officers went to the Koontz
home they found Mrs. Koontz with
the cooling babe and she told them
that she had absolute charge of the
child and her husband had gone too
far in having the information issued
The father and mother cannot be
found and the divided Koontz house
hold makes it almost impossible for
the officers to take any steps in the
matter
