Cowles Says He Was Threatened.

That DIR. Robnett threatened to go with
a companion to Dr. Cowles' home IN
Dartmouth street and forcibly recover
the photograph Of Miss Dorothy Hester
if it were not returned at once was the
Dr. Robnett in his testimony, given as
the first witness of the day.
PaymaSter Aud, who appeared as
witness for DR.. Robnett, shouldered the
blame for all that occurred at the dance.
DR.. Howard E. Ames, director of the
Naval Hospital at Chelsea. testified that
Dr. and Mrs. Cowles were regularly in
vited guests at the dance. He said he
summoned DIR. Robnett and told him that
he had been informed that DR.. Robnett
had used insulting language to DIR. CoWles
over the telephone.
He asked Robnett what he meant by US
ing the Naval Hospital telephone for such
a purpose to one of his guests. Dr. Rob
nett replied that it was private affair
While Dr. Cowles was testifying he was
Robnett applied to him. There were many
women OF the naval set and of the Back
Bay social set in the courtroom. Before
DR.. Cowles could answer Capt. Helm,
president OF the court, said:
1T may be that the ladies or others
among the spectators would prefer not
to hear it. If there are any persons pres
ent who feel that the testimony is apt to
be offensive to them they are now given
the privilege of retiring.
The women spectators nudged each
other and some of them glggled, but no
one left the court chamber.
1T appears that everybody is anxious
to hear it ALL, said Capt. Helm. 1.-The

inently in the court-martial proceedins,
revealed to the court yesterday during the
trial of P. A. Surgeon Ansey II. Robnett
the heart secret, the romance that caused
all the trouble.
The murmurs of the courtroom were
hushed when Miss Hester was asked by
Mai Henry Leonard, counsel for DR..
Robnett:
why did DIR. Robnett take up what
you considered was grievance against
DR.. Cowles?"
Spectators and the grim sea dogs in
their gold braid. who sat in Judgment
upon DIR. Robnett, seemed to scent what
was coming. All bent forward as if in
fear of losing single word. Then came
the revelation. -
Il am his fiancee,r replied Miss Hesler.
The secret suspected for weeks was out
at last
Stylishly dressed women who occupied
the greater part of the seating space,
nodded their heads approvingly. AS Miss
Hester made the announcement she cast
a tender glance at DIR. Robnett. who sat
Just across the table with Maj. Leonard
and Capt. Hirschinger.
Gets Kiss and Congratulations.
AS soon as the court adjourned DIR.
Robnett FASTENED from the courtroom to
the corridor where Miss Hesler had re-
joined her mother after completing her
testimony. With utter disregard for per-
sons, who forgot to turn their eyes away
and they were decidedly in the major
ity-Dr. Robnett clasped Miss Hester in his
arms and planted a resounding smack
upon her lips.
OF course congratulations were in order.
One of the first to approach DIR. Robnett
and Miss Hesler was Maj. Catlin, who
as judge advocate has fulfilled the duties
of prosecuting officer He wished Miss
Hesler "all the happiness in the world"
and congratulated DR.. Robnett.
Maj Catlin was followed by Maj
Leonard and Capt. Hirschinger, the men
who have fought to save DIR. Robnett
from the charges of conduct unbecoming
an officer and making threats. Then
came swarm Of we'll Wishers, led by

appeared and was replaced by a
feeling of intense affection which
warmed me from the top of my

Divine teaching to which my life

Rustlina Of Leaves.

Until few years ago Hampshire
rustics used to sit up till ~ o'clock
on old Christmas night, and as soon
as they heard the leaves rustling they
went to the nearest comstall to watch
the animals get up and lie down on
the other side. The idea of watching
the animals arose from the belief that
at ~ o'clock on the night Of the Ma
tiviy oxen knelt in their stalls in honor
of the event; that the rustling of the
leaves refers to the tradition that
thorn trees blossom at midnight to
commemorate the Saviour's birth.
Cornish folk believe that sheep turn
to the east and bow their heads on
old Christmas night in memory of the
sheep belonging to the shepherds at
Bethlehem, and in Yorkshire bees
hum in their hives on the same occa-
sion.
