she could. l then saw that l didn't have

A strong point made by the State was
the fact that Beattie could not have
driven his car from the roadway over
the g. curve leading into the Owen
place while holding his dead wife with
his left arm.

Il don't say that did this. he said.
Il don't remember just how I got in
Did you later find out about your
coat?"
Yes; DR.. Mercer told me he found it
in the front of the car, hanging over
the running board"
The prosecutor brought out from the
witness on cross-eXamination that the
point to which he took his wife auto
riding and at which the murder was
committed was by far the highest point
in that vicinity and a point from which
an auto or any person on foot could
be seen approaching at a distance of
about 200 yards although. he stated that
the highwayman was but a few feet
away when he first saw him.
Judge Watson adjourned the court at
6:36 o'clock
Court will resume at 9:15 o'clock to-
morrow morning, and the cross-examina-
tion will be resumed.

Beattie then gave a detailed descrip-
tion of fixing the tire, stating that 1t
probably took him nearly an hour.
Asked II DR.. Mercer was at the Thomas
Owen home where his wife was stopping
when he got there. he said no. He
first saw Thomas owen, his wife's uncle,
who told him Louise. his wife, was up
stairs nursing the baby.
Your mOther-in-law has stated that
your wife was unhappy about you. Was
it true?'
No sir"
He and his wife. he said. went out Of
the house together the night of the fatal
ride. He told his wife's uncle to get
her rain coat for her. Then get pre-

ON the way back to the ONenes, Louise

Midlothian turnpike"
Three cars passed on the road. The
first was going so fast-ffty or sixty
miles an hour-that 1 could not tell much
about IT, Then came the second car,
also running fast as also was the third" 4"
We were running along at eighteen
or twenty miles an hour when I saw a
man at the left-hand side of the road.
l braked my car because he was so near
me and he said. What in the hell are you
trying to do. run over me?'
L reached over to fix the brake and he
pointed the gun at me. l did not say
anything because l didn't want to ag-
gravate him. He fired and Louise fell

How did she faIl?'
Il could not say exactly

"On the spur of the moment I jumped
out of the car and grappel with the man.
He raised the gun to hit me. l grabbed
1t and broke the blow. but it cut my
nose. The first person that l said any
thing to as to where the man went was
Tom Owen. to whom l said he went up
the road and got into the woods. Tom
Owen told a fair and accurate story of
the murder, just as l told it to him.
After wrestling the gun from the man
/ threw it into the back of the car"
"Why didn't you follow the man."
Because my next thought was for
my wife. She was lying across the
footboard. I picked her up and put her

not tell whether she was dead OF alive,

final questions about the lack of blood

Though most of his replies quoted
here sound bad for the young defend
ant, there were hundreds of others that
made his narrative appear reasonable
at least reasonable enough to cause a
possible belief in the minds of one or
more jurors that he may be telling the
truth. He and his lawyers were well
pleased with the way the day went.

time In studying the nature of the
weed while growing. and have found
the way TO tell the better dates from
the poorer ones.
To explain, I'll say that there Is a
sap In tobacco as In a tree; when the
sap (water) rises in tobacco II runs
the oil out through the pores OF the
leaves and that Is why tobacco is so
|"gummy" at times. This sap and oil
exchanges at intervals during the life

when In this state II Is practically
worthless; It will cYrs up mean, will
be ''chaffy" and light. But II tobacco
Is cut when full OF oil II will cure we'll
