TAKE UP EVIDENCE
First Witness in the Gotelaere
Manslaughter Case Placed
on the Stand.
TEsTlFIES FOR THE STATE
Prosecution Tries to Show thai De-
PENDANT Assaulted Van Hecke-
Trouble Getting Jurors.

The taking of testimony in the Go
telsere case in he circuit court COM
menced late yesterday afternoon when
the first witness was put on the stand.
The state will produce a number Oh
the men who were in the saloon on
Fifth avenue between Twenty-nfth
and Twenty-siXth streets at the time
the ARRAY between Getelaere and the
deceased, Levon Van Hecke, took
place. and will endeavor to prove by
their testimony that Gotelaere was the
aggressor in the fight, and that he
kicked Van Hecke in the head when
the latter was upon the floor.
1t is alleged by the prosecution that
the injuries inflicted by those kicks
resulted in the death of Van Hecke at
st. Anthony's hospital eight days la
ter. The arrest of Gotelaere on the
charge of manslaughter followed soon
afterwards, and the state holds that
Gotelaere's attempt to get away,
which led him to go from here to De-
troit, is evidence of his own feeling of
guilt in the matter.
Those on the Jury.
Considerable difficulty was expert
enced in getting IL men to try the
case, as most of the men making up
the venire of jurors admitted having
already partly formed conclusions as
to the guilt or innocence of the &C
cused. The panel was exhausted be-
fore a full jury was secured. The
jury selected is composed as follows:

woodlands and heavy swamps that
constituted the virgin wilderness.
These settlers of the Pennsylvania
woods were believers in the creed of
Memo Simon, the founder of the Men
MONTE church, and were driven step
by step from Europe by the religious
intolerance Of the time. Under the
leadership of their pastor, Hans Herr.
they sailed for America and became
the pioneer settlers Of Pennsylvania.
Since the first breaking of the soil
the county has felt the influence OF
many newcomers. There were the
Scotch-Irish in the south and the
Quakers. who pushed over from Ches-
ter county, and the Welsh in the
northeast, among their iron furnaces;
so that Lancaster, in its radical and
religious aspect. Is as cosmopolitan

is well for Lancaster county that the
spirit of the first comers is still the
spirit OF the community. The wealth
