will Make Moves in John
son Murder Case-Judge Win
chester Denies Attorneys
Insanity Board Motion.

The PRESS last week was able to
announce to all Of its country readers
the decision Of the Jury in the insbret
johnson murder case. ~ special dis
patch from Bismarck at s AS was BY
hustlins included in the country edition.
The PRESS reached the country where
there was special interest," in the case
before the dailies.
The jury brought in . verdict Of
guilty and sentence of II years last
Friday afternoon. johnson was the
principal witness for the defense. His
story was that he had no intention Of
killing Isaard. He merely wished to
frighten him and did not know he had
committed murder until 70 informed
after a night in Jail at Mott. The cross
examination was intended to show that
johnson went to the house for the gun
with intent to shoot.
The arguments were very brilliant.
especially that of Attorney R. v.
Stevens. Attorney Geo. H. Stone of
Mott made an eloquent plea. asking for
justice and Attorney l. A. Simpson
pleaded for the life of his client in
brilliant language.
Simpson, on Saturday p. m. made a
motion in arrest of judgment and asked
Judge Winchester that a jury of twelve
men be called to determine the question
of the sanity of the defendant. In sup
port of his statement that the defend
ant was insane, or that there was a
doubt as Il the insanity. Attorney Simp-
son called two witnesses, Drs. Fisher
and Smith of Dickinson. who gave
testimony that they entertained a doubt
as to the sanity of the defendant.
Both physicians testified that they had
made an examination of the defendant
Saturday and d.. Fisher stated that he
believed him to be suffering from second
airy dementia, which has existed since
the defendant was sixteen years old, or
Whereabouts. He said he believed he
had been mentally deficient from birth.
Dr.. Fisher stated that he had been nine
months in the state syalum as assistant
physician and he had observed many
cases of insanity. He was cross ex-
amined by States Attorney Stevens, as
was DR.. Smith. who also testified that
he beloved there vas a doubt as to the
sanity of the defendant, but it would be
impossible to state positively whether
or not he was insane upon so brief an
examination. He said it was frequently
necessary to keep a suspect under obser-
walton for a month or so before a posi-
tive opinion could be rendered.
Winchester then denied the motion. of
arrest of judgment and stated that no
doubt had been raised in his mind as
to the sanity of the defendant. within
the meaning of the section of the law
referred to.
Attorney Simpson then asked for an
extension of sixty days beyond the usual
ten days 10 give notice of a new trial.
and this was granted. The motion will
probably be denied and an appeal will
be taken to the supreme court, both as
to the motion denying a new trial and
as to the motion for an arrest of judy
ment and a trial by jury as to the sanity
of the defendant.
johnson will be taken to the p%eniten-
tiary at once and begin to serve his
sentence.

DE1 SGdE-l UkNek,
At the beautiful country home of Mrs.

her little neice, Adelaide Turner. who
carried the ring on a pillow of white.
while the Lohengrin wedding march was
played by Mrs. j.. E. Messersmith of
Dickinson and Mrs. Prindle of Glad
stone. Throughout the service they play
ed the soft strains of a melody from
Hauser. AS this changed to Mendelssohn's
wedding march. the happy couple were
showered with congratulations and good
wishes. Miss Eva Alcott was at her
best in '.All for You by D'Hardelot.
The brides clear brunette type was
well set off by her gown which was a
lace robe over white silk. She wore a
white picture hat and carried bride
roses. The little ring bearer was also
all in white in a frock of lawn sand
lace. NJ ~
The entire house was very deliberately
decorated. Green and white was the
color scheme and each room had decor
atoms of ferns, smilax, white roses and
carnations in profusion and other June
flowers.
A five course wedding breakfast was
served to the guests by Mrs. L. A.
Simpson and Mrs. S. L. Carroll of Dick
inson. assisted by Misses Cora Simpson
and Margaret Currie. Miss Eva Alcott
poured coffee.
No spot could have been more ideal or
no day more perfect for q June wedding.
The Turner home, with its extensive
grounds. beautiful Groves and scenery,
was q fitting background for so simple
and pretty a wedding and the guests
spent the afternoon visiting with the
bridal couple and roaming about the
grounds.
MI. and Mrs. Deitsche expect to take
a trip to Seattle later. but for the
present will remain in Gladstone, where
the groom is a leading young business
man and a member of the firm of the
Gladstone Mercantile Co, where his
Genius and ability have won him high
esteem among his business associates.
The bride is one of Stark county's
fairest daughters. She attended school
for several years Bismarck and is a
graduate Of the high school class of
1906 there. She has a LARGE acquaintance
among the young people of Bismarck,
Dickinson and Mandan with whom she
is very, popular.
Among those present from out of town
were Mrs. P. c. Remington, Miss Eliza
beth Remington and Miss Eta Hoskihs

Farm Gleanlngs.

Provide ample pasture for the
calves.
Overcrowding of the chickens Is q
strong bid for trouble.
Have a driveway right through your
barn. It will prove valuable In many
ways, especially In the matter of keep
ing it clean.
Nothing better for growing swine
than good pasturage, and there is no
more economical method Of raising
them, either.
The Connecticut Experiment Sta
tion recommends that for the best
results in Matching, eggs not over five
days old be used.
The work of raising chickens has
only begun when you get the downy
things out of the shell.
Dip the sheep right after clipping
them and then again about ten days
after to be sure and kill those that
hatch after the first dipping.
An excellent feed for all kinds of
young stock is fine cut clover hay,
cooked and stepped in boiling water
and mixed with salt. bran and corn
meal.
To have finely colored fruit 1t ia
necessary to have plenty OF light. A
dressing of wood ashes, or potash,
around the base of the trees, will also
help considerably to improve the
color.

Her Patients.
Mrs. F. Rowling, medical mission

stories about her patients and their
implicit faith In the skill and knowl-
edge of "the white medicine woman"
What she has to say on the matter is
as amusing as 1t is interesting and
instructive, and serves to illustrate a
curious trait of the savage mind that
has been commented upon by travel
ers in practically all parts Of the
world-viz., the keen delight which
natives take in sampling the white
mans drugs. 1t matters not whether
the medicine be palatable or nauseous,

Care Of Snowshoes.

Snowshoes need very little care.
You don't have to wipe them dry
with a chamois, for instance. the pre-
scribed treatment for skates. When
taking them off merely tap them
against the wall or tree to
shake free the clinging snow and
stand them up on their heels
outside. Never attempt to dry
them before a fire. When they are
put away for the summer select a dry
place where there will be no danger

A suggestion that shoe repairing,

desire to become cobblers or who
would profit by learning the trade

years following its publication in
