but they were not audible.
Nye Speaks.
Mr.. Nye, for the prisoner, said that
there was some merit in what the de-
fendant' had said. AS to the penalty
there was nothing to say, the law FIX :
ed that. Closing Mr. Nye briefly
called the attention OF the court that
he and mis- associate had worked con
scientiousIy in the interests OF the
defendant, that they had not, nor had
they attempted to introduce any fic-
titious evidence to bolster up q line
of defense He had strong doubts as
to the guilt Of the defendant, but as
long as there exists, such institutions
as we nave among us we shall have
more of these cases.
No "Third Degree" Efforts.
County Attorney Johnson said that
every effort had been made to give
the defendant the fairest trial pos
sible. The state had in, not one in
stance attempted to obtain incrirni-
mating evidence, there had been no
third degree" efforts such as are
used in large centers and in no way
nave the constitutional rights of the
DEFENDANT been invaded.
Law Fixes Penalty.
Judge Taylor said the defendant
had been given fair trial and that
he had been ably defended and in
no particular mad anything been done
in the conduct of the trial, but what
all could honestly do. Under the YER
dict, the law fixes the penalty, the
A.
nouncing the penalty for murder in
the second degree, and 1t is that you
Frank Kethman. be confined at hard
labor in the state penitentiary at
Saltwater for the period of your nat
ural life
Kethman Shows Nerve.
Rethman did not exhibit a culver.
All through the ordeal he maintained
the same degree and composure which
has been conspicuous since the begin
ming of the trial, Nov. 10. He looked
puzzled for a, second or two and turn
ing said to the guards: II want to
speak to my wife"
An Affecting Scene.
He moved to her chair and stroked
her cheek and at that there was
scream and then the poor woman
plunged herself into the bitterest cry
ing and sohbing and despite all efforts
of her grief stricken father at her side
she would not be comforted and finally
she fell to the floor with mournful
scream. In the meantime Kethman was
taken. back to his cell and after a lit
tie while Mrs. Kethman recovered her
composure sufficiently so that she was
led away to the street car and with
her friends left for her home in Fargo.
Wanted to See Children.
Going across to the Jail Kethn1an
said, my. wife did nor realize the
worst of this, told her not to be too
hopeful. Wonder why she did not
bring the children for me to seer
Sheriff Whaley says he will allow
Kethman and his family reasonable
time TO arrange their affairs before
taking him to Saltwater, but he
thought that possibly he would leave
tomorrow night.
The examination of veniremen for
the jury began Nov. 19. The jury was
at noon Monday, Nov. %.
and the taking of the testimony began
in the afternoon. and the case was sub
mitted to the jury yesterday afternoon
at 4:45.

Nicaraguans Rejoicing.
Washington, Dec. 2.-Theret Is re-
jofcing today in the ranks of the
Nicaraguan insurgentionary party and
corresponding gloom among those who
have been friends Of President Zelaya
The cause is an .ultiinatum handed
down yesterday by the United states
to the Nicaraguan government, and is
contained insa note which accompanied
the. passports delivered by Secretary
of States Knox to Felipe Rodriguez
charge affairs of the Nicaraguan
legation.
The strength of the note and Its
personal tone are subjects OF comment
in diplomatic circles. 1t lis generally
recognized that the United States has
decided the time has come to put an
end TO further attacks on American
life and interest in Central America.
Calls Zeiaya cuIprit.
The far reaching effect of the note
is matter of especial comment. The
fact that President Zelaya Is, appar-
emily to be held responsible for the
murder, so-called, of the two Anieri
cans, Groce and Cannon, and that the
note intimates that Zelaya / the Gull
prit, put sting to the situation AL
most feverish interest in the next step
of this government Is manifest.
Marks an Epoch.
Concealed in the vigorous but care
fully prepared note dictated by Secre-
tary Knox, is seen a warning to Cen
trail American republics that they r1ust
behave and conduct themselves. This
and the direct announcement that the
United States intends to see that the
family of western republics live har-
moniously is believed by diplomats to
be epochal.
The Monroe doctrine has attained in
the eyes of the diplomats, r. w dig
nifty. The letter is seemingly mere
protest against existing conditions and.
while it bristlas with declarations, it
smacks of so-called American shirt
sleeve" diplomacy.
That this view of the documen. is
incorrect Is plainly shown by careful
reading. The note is generally re-
garded as one OF the most scathing
documents issued from the state de-
partment in many years.
U. s. Marines Leave Today.
The troop ship Prairie, with a de-
tachment of about 700 marines aboard
for Panama and possible for service in
Nicaragua have received orders to sail
from Philadelphia this afternoon.

day. and the score board had to be
enlarged to stick up the numbers. Fiji
teen to was what the spectators car
red away from the ball grounds to tell
their neighbors the result of the fray.
The Gary players are not adopts at the
national game from any angle you look
at it, and the spectators were hardly
presented with their moneys worth.
The Crown Points ambled around the
bases at will and twas more like a
Marathon run than a frst-claSb ball
game, every Crown Point player going
the four sacks. one, two and three DIFF
ferent times during the game. Gary may
have had a ball team in the year 1909,
but the remnants she sent down the
beginning of this week gave Crown
Point no opportunity to prove the fact.
