Cooper trial was devoted to rebuttal
evidence of witnesses on minor points
The jury is anxious to have the case
finished and while Il is unlikely that
Judge Hart will order night sessions
as they request, he probably will ask
attorneys to cut out arguments over
points of law. 1t is expected that the
closing arguments will be brief and
the case possibly will go to the Jury
Wednesday night.
The state Is expected to finish is
rebuttal testimony today and all the
evidence Is likely to be in by tomor-

be submitted to the jury for observa-

ing the place where the killing
occurred.
Charles Hayden, one of the de-

examined when he testified, was re-
called by the state for that purpose
Hayden was in Judge Bradford's Of
flee when the conference between
Col. Cooper, Robin. Bradford and
Gen. Tully Brown took place Just be-
fore the shooting. Hayden stated
that the door was closed during the
conference, contrary to the testimony
of Col. Cooper and Judge Bradford.
He denied, too, that anyone called
Col. Cooper to the telephone. Gen.
Brown swore he called Col. Cooper to
talk to the governor, and that the
governor asked Cooper to come to the
mansion. II Hayden's testimony is

ly dark when he reached the crest be-
tween the hills. At this point the
southern grade of the pass winds
sharply, whence its name, the Elbow;
but from the head of the pass the
grade may be commanded at intervals
for half mile. Trotting down this
road with his head in whirl of ex-
element, McCloud heard the crack OF
rifle; at the same instant he felt a
sharp slap at his hat. Instinct works
on all brave men very much alike.
McCloud dropped forward In his sad
die, and, seeking no explanation, laid

horse, quite amazed, bolted and
swerved down the grade like snipe,
with his rider crouching close for a
second shot. But no second shot
came, and after another mile McCloud
ventured to take off his hat and put
his finger through the holes in 1t,
though he did not stop his horse to
make the examination. When they
reached the open country the horse
had settled into a fast, long stride
that not only redeemed his reputation
but relieved his riders nerves.
When McCloud entered his office It
was half past nine o'clock, and the
first thing he did before turning on
the lights was to draw the window.

with sensations that were new to him
fear, resentment, and hearty
hatred Of his enemies. But all the
while the picture of Dicksie remained.
He thought of her nodding to him as
they parted In the saddle. and her pic.

Two nights later Whispering Smith
rode into Medicine Bend. I've been
up around Williams Cache" he said
answering McCloud's greeting as he
entered the upstairs ONCE. How goes
it?' He was in his riding rig. Just as
he had come from a late supper.
When he asked for news McCloud
told him the story of the trouble with
Lance Dunning over the survey, and
added that he had referred the matter
to Glover. He told then OF his I'm.
pleasant surprise when riding home
afterward.
Yes" assented Smith, looking with
feverish interest at McCloud's head
Il heard about It,"

McCloud produced IT, II was a

bullet hole cut clearly through the
front and the back OF the crown.
Smith made McCloud put the hat on
and describe his position when the
shot was fired. McCloud stood rp,
and Whispering Smith eyed him and
put questions.
What do you think OF IT," asked
Mccioud when he had done.
Smith leaned forward on the table
and pushed McCloud's hat toward him
as If the incident were closed. There
is no question in my mind. and there
never has been. but that Stetson puts
up the best hat worn on the range"
McCloud raised his eyebrows. why,
