cision said that all the evidence was
in favor of Mrs. Gould, and that the
conduct of Mrs. Gould when she was
alleged to have been intoxicated,
might have been caused by excitement.
Defiant and more than ready to fight
back Mrs. Katherine Clemmons Gould,
gowned in rich black silk dress and
wearing her costly pearls, faced De-
lancey Nicoll, her husbands counsel,
in her suit for separation from Howard
Gould.
ST said then and say now, that I
was never drunk in all my life,'' she
replied to Nicoll's opening questions
as to. her testimony on that point.
"Then every witness who testified to
your drunkenness swore falsely?"
asked Nicoll.
"Absolutely and in every DETAIL"
she snapped.
Nicol] tried 60 force Mrs. Gould to
admit that the affdavits she signed in
her plea for alimony was faulty in
that she forgot to mention several
meetings with Dustin Farnum, the ac-
tor. She parried these questions
skillfully. Nicoll read from the afi-
davit the part in which she had told
the ''entire EXTENT of her meetings
with Farnum, and then recalled sever
al meetings not recorded and asked
why she omitted them.
Atty. Nicoll was unsuccessful in
his efforts to have Mrs. Gould tell
him the color of Farnum's eyes, his
hair; how broad are his shoulders;
whether he was clean shaven or wore
a mustache, and whether or not his
hair is long and curly.

Mr.. Farnum's personality as you
seem to Think" she said to his ques-
tioning. -...
She said that on the occasion of her
10 meetings with Farnum the purpose
was to talk of matters theatrical and
have lunch. .
Mrs. Gould declared she met Far
num in Lynchburg, Va, for the pur-
pose Of apologizing for repeating her
various invitations that he should
visit her at Blue Gap farm. .-....
"Well, on your 10 hour automobile
trip with Farnum, when you went to
Castle Gould, didn't you exhaust your.
talks of business
"The theatrical business is practi-
cally inexhaustible.
VIM. Hummel of Seattle, w ash. has
arrived in the city Sunday and is
visiting with his sons. He has made
extensive trips through Southern
states and spent several months in

1t is difficult to understand why and
for what reasons some brutes broke
into the kitchen of the Herman's
monument on Hermans heights, tear
ing off the blinds, smashing two large
window panes and otherwise display
ing beastly sense of obstruction.
There was nothing of value in the
kitchen, all it contained were dishes
and other cooking utensils.
The Lutheran church at CORTLAND
was struck by lightning during the
severe thunder storm, Saturday night.
The bolt tore down the steeple and did
