Purchase of strychnine.

There is druggist in Kansas city,
named Breckiein, whose store was near
the office of DR.. Hyde, and at which
the physicians obtained some of his
medicinal supplies. After Colonel and
Chrisman Swope had died and after the
rebellion Of the nurses and the cutlery
of suspicion, this drug store was
burned. How or why we do not know,
nor, perhaps, Will ii be necessary 20
investigate, but while ii burned the
books of account of Brecklein were not
burned, and these books disclosed that
on December 4 and December II Hyde
purchased cyanide Of pota in cap
sules at the store"
In closing his address, Mr.. Reed ex-
planned that Mr.. Hyde was being trleo
for the murder Of Colonel SwOpe only.
He said:
THE evidence of all these other
crimes that will be introduced will be
so introduced. not for the purpose of
proving the defendant guilty of other
crimes, but for the purpose of showing
the intents and purposes and motive
that control him in his conduct toward
Colonel Swope.
There will doubtless be proof that
typhoid incubation of the Swope FAM
ily could have occurred without the in
tervention of Hyde. If that should be
established then the question must be
determined, or may have to be deter
minde. as to whether or not it was so
introduced, or whether IL was the re-
suit of the manipulation of the typhoid
germs received by the defendant from
DR.. Stewart"

not have come from the water used, it
was said, becau the water came from
a cistern and was well filtered. 1t was
on the occasion of DR.. Hyde taking din
ner with the SWope family on November
20 that he is thought to have spread
the germs, 1t is said.
Chrisman Swope's death was touched
lightly upon and then MIR. Reed told
the story of the alleged attempt of DR..
Hyde to poison Margaret -swope. Three
indictments are pending against him
on this charge, and until today little
was known OF the testimony of wit
ness that led to the indictment. This

man was placed in charge of the pa
tient. One night, while the girl was
supposed to be almost recovered. a
nurse learned that Hyde had given the
girl a hypodermic injection.
when asked why he had made the
injection Hyde replied he had given her
only some oil of camphor for intermit-
tent pulse. Miss Swope denied that the
physician felt ner pulse, and the nurse
found no odor like oil of camphor.
"A sore has recently developed upon
the girls arm and the state believes It
is due to the physicians injecting some
of the germs he obtained from DIR.

A few days after the injection Incl
dent DR.. Hyde left a capsule among the
medicines belonging to the girl. A
nurse administered the capsule. Miss
SwOpe was seized with commissions. An
examination of the contents of her
stomach showed strychnine.
A significant feature of that section
of the statement which referred to
Hyde purchasing poison was the refer
ence to the store of the druggist from
whom the poison was bought being
burned recently.

MIR. r.. L. FENTON DISCOVERS a
CURIOSITY IN THE SHAPE OF
A SEED OR EGG THAT JUMPS
HIGHER THAN THE FAMOUS
JIM CROW.

Mr.. r. L. Fenton, who resides at
the corner of Railroad and Lee
streets, has a curiosity which is puz-
zling all to whom he shows It. While
lying In his hammock yesterday he
noticed what appeared to be Glow
er seed, a small, round, yellow OBJ
ject the size of pinhead, in the
dirt beneath him. His attention was
called to it by the fact as his eyes
rested on the ground he saw the
diminutive little object Jump" Mr.
Fenton doesn't drink or he might
perhaps have paid no more atten-
tion to it, but he was certain 1t
moved, but ascribed 1t to the air
currents. He watched it, and in n
moment It jumped again and then
again, finally jumping into a little
hole half an inch deep. This did not
bother it for in moment it jumped
out again and kept at its dancing.
The balance of the family was called
out to see the curiosity and soon
Mrs. FELTON, discovered there were
dozens of the little things playing
leapfrog and running hurdle races.
while some broke the records for
high jumping. Mr. FELTON, gathered
lot of them in saucer but they
wouldn't stay gathered, jumping the
location as soon as placed in it. He
then procured a big mouthed small
bottle and secured a hundred or
more of the little acrobats. In the
bottle they keep up a continuous
hopping, jumping half an inch or
more, high, and probably 20 times
their own diameter. He brought
them in to the horse editor, who
pronounced them the spirits of de-
ceased knockers, or else microbes Of

semblance to the latter. Whatever
they are, and they probably are that,
