Leesburg, Ca, Nov. 8, 1911.-De>
void Of spectacular features and with
public interest much less pronounced
than at the preliminary hearings. the
trial of the case of Maud Childers,
charged with the murder of his wife
was taken up in to-day's session of
Lee Superior Court before Judge Lit
tlejohn.
Much of the time during the first
part of the session was taken up in
the filing of demurrers by the coun-
sci for the defense, all of which were
overruled by Judge Littlejohn. The
selection of the jury also occupied
great part of the time, the last juror
of the twelve not having been selected
until the court had reconvened after
the dinner hour. Between that time
+. and the conclusion of the days ses-
sion seven witnesses for the state
were heard, though but very little
new testimony was introduced.
A plea in abatement was filed by the
counsel for the defense on the ground
that the bill of Indictment returned
by the grand jury against the defen-
dant had been agreed upon by only
II of the grand jury present when
the investigation was made, the law
providing that no fewer than Is grand
jurors should be present when such
action is taken. OF the % grand
jurors only 20 were present when the
bill of indictment was returned.
Judge Littlejohn overruled the plea.
A demurrer was entered by the de-
fense on the ground that the word
strychnine was misspelled in the in
dictment. This also was oyerruled.
The next move of the counsel for
the defense was to have served
subpoena, by which it was made nee
essary that the counsel for the state
produce a list of the names of those
residents of Smithville and vicinity
who had subscribed for fund, Wlnch,
il was alleged, had been originally
intended to be used for the appre-
hension of the person or persons
guilty of the murder Of Mrs. Chllders
while It had later been turned to the
purpose of specifically prosecuting
Childers. The names signed to the
subscription list, which includes
MANY of the most prominent citizens
of Smithville. were produced by the
state.
Using this list of names as a oasl3
defense then proceeded to strike inc
name of every talesman who was re-
lated to any one of the persons whose
names appeared on the list. In thls
way a jury list of more than 1Vo
names was exhausted before the jury
of twelve men was finally selected
The remaining talesmen were dis
missed, when the jury had oeeh
chosen. with instructions to report
again on Friday morning TO ascei
tain IL their services should be needed
at that time.
DR.. w. T. Simpson, of SmithVliie
was the first witness called by inc
state. The testimony given by the
witness was substantially that given
at the preliminary hearings eAcep
that he admitted that the certificate o.
analysis received by him from th'
state chemist had been recoVele'
since he testified in the first hearings
DR.. Simpson testified previously Una
the certificate had disappeared IRON

COTTON AT THE NICKLE
BECAUSE OF QUALITY.
Several Bales Sold Recently Here at
1-2 Cents.

Fiveand a half cents was the price
at which seventeen bales cotton sold
in Americus yesterday, because of
the poor quality. There is a great
deal of storm-statned cotton on the
market. but it costs just as much to
grow it, to pick and market this kind
as it does the fancy grades that sold
two months ago at IL IL cents, and
the farmer is the heavy loser there
by.
