Girls Mother Breaks Down

Under the piti1ess exposure Of the

in court today and wept bitterly.
The mysterious disappearance of two
empty cartridge shells, which were
supposed to have been in the chamber
of the revolver with which Joe Arme4
was killed, was the chief point consid-
cred in the cross examination of Sheriff
McAulay by Attorney Chamberlain.
Chamberlain took up that phase of the
case when court convened this morn

lively. He possibly weakened the effect
of McAulay's impression on the jury,
which was strong when he testified in

MADE THREAT TO DOCTORS
During the preceding afternoon DR..
A B. Shields, superintendent of the
hospital, accompanied by Rev. j. A.
Hansen of Fresno. was on Valencia
street car when Saunders boarded it.
He had been drinking and was in an
ugly mood. He engaged Doctor Shields
in conversation.
He sidled up to me-" said Doctor
Shields "and indulged in considerable
maudlin talk I distinctly remember
that he made the remark, Well, I'm
sorry to do it. but I'm going to do 1T
tonight You'll read about it in the
papers in the morning."
When arrested about IL o'clock yes
terday morning in a Valencia street sa-
loon by Policemen Furman and Nc
Grath, Saunders offered some resist
ance but was finally landed at the
central station. Fire Marshal Towe has
taken the case under consideration. He
put Saunders through "the third de-
gree" yesterday afternoon and last
night. He declined to make state
ment a. to the result of his sweating
of the accused man. but will probably
charge him with the crime this MORN
ing. Officials at police and fire head
quarters do not concur with the hos
pital attaches in the insanity theory,
but incline TO the belief that it is
simply a case of too much liquor and
a desire to get revenge. Detectives
Walsh and Gallagher are assigned to
the case.

time steps will be taken to replace the

Make All-the-Year-Round Roads.

Roads should be so constructed that
they will be passable during all sea-
sons of the year, condition of af-
fairs that would add an element Of
stability and regularity to the trade
of the country. AS matters stand
now it often happens that the wet sea-
son transforms roads into quagmires,
causing produce to accumulate until
drier weather permits its being haul
ed to the nearest station, which thus
brings about congestion of traffic be-
cause the railway authorities are un-
able to meet the extraordinary de-
mand for cars. In this way some Of
1t perishes and part is damaged, and,
taken all in all, the value of the whole
is materially decreased before 1t
reaches the consumer, though the
price to the consumer under such con-
ditions is abnormally high. The farm
er should not overlook the point that
it is to his great advantage to be able
to draw produce to the shipping point
at a time when regular farm duties
are least absorbing, and to have the
advantage also of marketing produce
whenever the price is highest.
