sEEN EXAMINED AND THE AR
GUMENTS WILL BEGIN TODAY.

The state concluded its testimony
in the A. Washmood murder case

The defendant placed number OF
witnesses upon the stand, who ties
titled that they had had business
with the defendant during the month
of July, Immediately preceding the
killing, with reference 10 insurance
policies.
Defense also proved that Wash
mood did not break Jail when he
had an opportunity a few months
ago.
The defendant himself took the
stand at 10 O'Clock today and when
court re-convened at two O'Clock This
afternoon he was still on the stand.
The defendant is making a most eX.
cellcnt witness in his own behalf. He
is man of about Go years of age

pears 10 be well read and well edu-
Gated. He admits being at Collins
house several times before the kill
ing: admits being there about one
hour before the killing. inquiring for
Mr. Collins; says he met Collins in
the town of Emet and that witness
reached the hotel and was in bed
before nine O'Clock. He says that
Mr. Collins had promised to give
him an application for life insur-
ance policy, and was to be examined
for the policy the next day.
Defendant denies ever seeing Mil
Ter until he was placed in the Ard
more Jail; denies ever seeing or hear
ing of the Pruitt boys, and claims
generally total ignorance of the

timony by three o'clock this after
noon; then the prosecution has a
few witnesses in rebuttal; all the
testimony will be in by four o'clock
this afternoon, and the argument will
begin Immediately.

already prepared, having done this
last night and today. and they are
ready TO be read to the jury,

and both sides seem to be well
pleased at the fairness OF the court s
ruling on all questions.
County Attorney Mathers will open
the states case this afternoon; Rep
resentative Anderson, of McCurtain
county. will probably open for the
defense; Hon. Bob Steel, ex.county

ton.

HARRY PEARLE BRIDE, BOTH ARE CLOWNS WITH BAR
MUM & BAIIEYs CIRCUS IN ARDMORE MONDAY

As the circus was being placed
aboard the trains at Philadelphia
for a night jump TO Washington
one of the herd of 3S camels gave
birth to a longlegged youngster
which required the attention of two
animal men and a veterinary sur
geon throughout the journey, and
has now become as sturdy as his
elders. Strange to say, the same
night and on the same train, Juno,
the largest of the tigresses with
the circus, bore -four little cubs
which are correctly described as the
cutest things in the whole circus.
Since then two other camels nave
been born and two young leopards
bringing the total of births during
the first two and a half months OF
the present season TO is.
Some weeks ago the Barnum &
Bailey people dispatched an eXpe-
dition to British East Africa which
was to procure live animals for eX-
hibition purposes. No sooner had
these agents left the port Of New
York bound for Mombassa, than
the deluge o" geological infants be
gan. When it became necessary to
build two more cages and add an
other car to the IS railway cars al

About the time the Big Show was
being hauled from winter quarters
at Bridgeport, Conn, and placed
aboard the trains which were to
bear It to its first exhibition place
the Madison Square Garden in New
York, Mary, the only female giraffe
in the Zoo, gave birth to a healthy
youngster who was the first giraffe
to be born in captivity since 1854,
when one was foaled in the London
Geological Garden. The latter died
one week later but the Barnum &
Bailey giraffe grew stronger and
larger and when the circus began
it's eight months tour OF the coun-
try, Baby Bumbeeno went with It,.
He is today the most valuable and
in many ways the most interesting
wild animal being exhibited in any
part of the world. No other giraffe
has ever been bred born and
brought to anything like healthy ma
turity outside of Africa.
Bumbeeno was christened during
the New York run of the circus by
by Mile Jane Noria, one of the
stars of the Metropolitan Grand
Opera Company, who presented to
her "god-child" big gold heart,
on which is engraved their two

"This cat lived IN a farm. The farmer had an old hen which had only
