Cleavenger
is Confused
as Witness
Goes Through Details of Mullen
Murder and Grows Greatly Ex-
cited at Cross Examination.

MULLEN, Neb.. June 1S.-(Special Tele-
gram. THE case of the state against
Harry q. Mcintyre, charged with the muir
der OF Q. #, Hamilton Is progressing rap
idly, although the testimony OF the prose
cutton is not yet more than half in. There
win probably be twenty witnesses yet to
examine for the state, and 1t is estimated
that about seventy will testify IN behalf of
Mcintyre. The line OF McIntyre's defense Is
an abb.
F. M. Cleevenger, who made the confess
sion OF this crime. completely broke down
on the wttneSs-stand, contradioting himself
many times. and It is not thought that his
story wall prove especially damaging toward
the conviction OF Mcintyre.
The story Of the killing of o. h. Hamil-
ton and the secret burial of his body In a
sandptt near the town OF Mullen was told
by Cleavenger
On the night of the crime, Cleavenger de-
clared, he went into a saloon where he had
previously been a bartender. There wert
present Hamilton, whom he said was In.
toxtcated and was sitting half asleep on a
chair In a back room; Charles Rector
Bob" Mcbride, Mcintyre and himself
McIhtyre, he testified. approached the
sleeping Hamilton and. with heavy re-
volver. struck the victim three times OF
the head. Hamilton, said the witness, sanl
TO the floor with moan, lapsed into un
Consciousness and soon died. Mcintyre
said Cleavenger, turned to the witnesses o.
the killing and threatened them with dealt
II they ever revealed the murder.
Cleavenger testified he then left the sa,
loon, returning some hours later, when Nc
Intyre, Rector and himself took the bod!
away and buried H.
On cross-examination Cleavenger becam.
confused, made contradictory statement
and became 80 vehement In his Language
toward Judge Sullivan that he was admon
ished by the court. During his examina
tion he was granted permission TO retire
and once outside he ran away from IN
sheriff and was with difficulty persuade
to return % the court room.
Charles Rector, who followed Cleavenge
on the stand. partly contradicted Cleaven
gers story. His examination was not con
| cluded.
The two other witnesses today were tn
men who were instrumental In finding IN
body and Its Identification. Thus far moth
ing has been brought out indicating a con
splracy to put Hamilton out OF the way 10
his alleged actavity In the land fraud prose
cuttons.

Superintendent Of the schools OF Chicago,
MIS-. Ella .FlAgg Young, continues to put
her finger on the weak joints Of the public
school system and quite recently has
called attention to widespread fslllng-ths
defects in the teaching Of English. She
says that much of the inadeduacy of the
schools comes from this defect and sug-
gests that more time be given to more
competent teaching OF this important sub
Ject. the language Of the country. Fur
thermore this superintendent says that she
does not believe in much home work by
pupils. She believes. however, that school
work should be so interesting and concern
itself 80 much with the daily life Of the
child that II will want to talk 1t over at
home. The fact that children do not con-
slider the work interesting enough to talk
about it out Of school Is, she says, a criti-
cism OF the schools.

HARDY'S NOVEL is
ALCAzAR'S DRAMA
Tess of D'Urbervilles" to Be
Given an Excellent Pro-
ductiOn

Tess Of the D'Urbervilles" dra-
matizatfon of Thomas Hardy's famous
novel. will be the Alcazar's next at
traction. commencing Monday evening
1t was first produced by Mrs. Fiske
and after serving her as a starring
vehicle two seasons was adopted by
Florence Roberts, who last played it
in San Francisco about eight years
ago at the old California theater. As
a medium of emotional expression the
title role is one of the best ever con-
structed. 1t affords opportunity for the
presenta ton of almost every phase of
human passion. In the keeping of Eve
lyn Vaughan it will surely be made
impressive at the Alcazar.
Tess is an English country girl of
humble parentage, who, while a mere
child, is betrayed. When her woman
hood begins to assert itself she falls
in love with a good man, and with the
dawning of her affection comes the
realization Of her unworthtness to be
his wife. He urges her to marry him.
She confesses her downfall in a letter
which she sends to him. The communi-
of her past, leads her to the altar,
while she imagines that he knows and
has forgiven. On their nuptial night
he tells her how he had erred and re-
pented. and she freely forgives him and
tells her own story. Horrified, he casts
her off. although he is convinced that
she loves him and is unsullied of mind.
Then comes a long struggle for her.
Goaded to desperation by the poverty
and sordid selfshness of her mother
and the pitiable plight of her younger
brother and sister, she sells her soul
that they may live-consigns herself
as a chattel to the human brute whose
passion was her undoing. Much of the
goodness within her has been smoth-
cred when her husband returns with
forgiveness and pleading. Realization
of what she has become impels her to
slay the author of her ruin. She is
tried, found guilty OF murder and is
sentenced to death.
In the cast will be the full strength
of the Alcazar company.
