WITNESS BOUGHT IN COURT
Dr.. Glasgow Testifies for the Defense
in the Cooper Trial.

The spectacle OF counsel on one side
not only selling a witness to the OPP
position, but haggling over the terms,
was one of the incidents in the trial at
Nashville, Tenn, of Colonel Cooper,
his son, and John Sharp for the STAY
ing or former United States Senator
e. w Carmack.
The subject of the commercial trans
action was Dr. McPheeters Glasgow,
who had been employed by the prose
cution to perform an autopsy on Car
macks body. He was subpoenaed by
the state but not used. The defense
then summoned the doctor.
Attorney General McCarn made this
propositions That if the defense would
pay the state the costs of the autopsy,
including DR.. Glasgow's fee, the state
would waive it's rights.
AS Judge Hart said, "the defense
wanted to see the goods before they
bought" and they offered to confer
with DR.. Glasgow. To this the prose
cutors entered an emphatic Veto.
PAY whether you use him or not"
they said.
Finally DR.. Glasgow became wit
ness for the defense. The significance
of his testimony was that any one of
the three wounds was necessarily and
instantly fatal and. that if the senator
did not fire the first shots he could
not have fired at all.
Major Vertrees, who loaned Senator
Carmack the revolver, identified the
one found near his body, with two dis
charged shells, as the one ne had loan
ed the senator. Next, Police Commits
sioner Tom Hutchinson, identified the
revolver which had not been fired, as
the one he loaned Colonel Cooper.
Governor Patterson was called as a
witness in the Carmack trial and
proved a star attraction: He told of
his efforts to avert the tragedy.

Hunting With Lighted Crabs.

A group of clubmen seated about an
odorous cedar fire talked of hunting.
"Once | hunted with lighted crabs, "
said an ex-consul SIT was in the des-
olate region of France called La Ven
dee. There Is no hunting there but
sea gulls (Which the French adore to
shoot and rabbits. 1t was to get the
rabbits that we used the crabs. We
caught some dozens Of small, lively
fellows. fastened on their backs light
ed candles and showed them down
into rabbit holes. The rabbits, scared
to death by those strange moving

HEARST MAN SCORES VICTORY

to Be Returned.
Scott MacReynolds, the representa-
tive of William r. Hearst, in the SUI
preme court in Oklahoma gained a VIC
tory over Governor Charles n. Haskell
in the suit to compel the governor to
return TO him papers seized at the in
stance of the executive
Judge Strang held that the writ of
seizure issued under an affidavit signed
by Haskell, alleging that MacReynolds
had in his possession papers which he
INTENDED to publish and thereby libel
the governor, was without sufficient
fact to justify the taking and holding
of the documents.
Owing to an agreement reached sew
eral weeks ago the papers of Mac
Reynolds will remain in the custody
of the court until the attorneys for the
governor have decided just what action
will be taken to continue the case in
the higher courts.

came unnatural in appearance. He tried
several remedies but did not succeed in
finding relief. until Dosns Kidney Pills

cured at w. G. Atwell's drug store. After
taking this remedy strictly as directed

DEFEAT EXCLUSION ACT
Undesirabies by Thousands Enter the
United States.

Undesirabies by Thousands Enter the
United States.
Some facts showing the far-reaching
character of the work of the joint COM
mission on immigration, appointed by
congress Feb. 20, 1907, were presented
to congress through the publication of
a preliminary report by the commits
sion.
The report was printed and circu-
lated to show the necessity for an ap-
preparation of $250,0OO to carry on and
complete the work. The expenses of
the commission from April 1, 1907, to
Feb. 81, 1909, have been $344,796.
The commission says it is generally
admitted by those acquainted with the
subject that, Notwithstanding that the
present law proposes to provide for
the exclusion of every undesirable i'm
migrant, thousands of undeniably un-
desirable persons are admitted each
year. 1t has been found that the law
in theory, so far as its exclusion pro-
visions are concerned, is exceptionally
strong, but in effect it is in some re-
spects weak and Intellectual.
One of the most important features
of the work is connected with evasions
of the law resulting in the importation
of excluded classes. Notwithstanding
the expenditure of about 100000 an
nually to enforce this law the commits
sion finds that it does not prevent the
coming of Chinese labOrerS in consid-
cradle numbers.

one, w. P. Hepburn, Iowa, has served

Teller the Senatorial Nestor.
In years of service. Senator Teller
of Colorado is the Nestor of the retir-
ing statesmen, having been elected
senator upon the admission of his state
to the union, taking his seat Dec. a.,
1876, since which time he has been
continuously and prominently in the
public eye. He resigned from the
senate in 1882 to enter the cabinet of
President Arthur as secretary of the
interior, re-entering the senate March
4, 1885. A Republican in politics, he
withdrew from the Republican nation
al convention at st. Louis in June,
1896, because of the financial plank
adopted by that party which he has
never since approved. He was re-
elected to the senate as an independ.
ent silver Republican and, in 1903, was
reelected as a Democrat, with which
party he has been affiliated since he
withdrew from the Republican conven-
ton. He declined reelection. He is
a member of the national monetary
commission and will continue his pub
lie service in that connection.
Williams to Become Senator.
Senator Plat of New York, served
in the forty-third and forty-fourth
congresses as member of the house,
entering the senate in 1881. On May
10Th of that year, when Senator Ros-
coe Conkling resigned his seat because
Of his difficulties with President Gar
field, his colleague, Plat, joined him,
thereby gaining the designation of "me
too Platt. 1t was always understood
that Plat disliked this nickname and
determined to return to the senate as
a vindication of his act which he did
March 4, 1897.
Representative Hepburn of Iowa has
been conspicuously interested in all
matters relating to interstate COM
merce, his connection with public af.
fairs going back to antebellum days,
he having been a delegate to the Re-
publican national convention of 1862
