/ hue. There was no moon that night,
| but it was a bright starlight night
! There was no light in the house
Answering q question OF Attorney
Perkins, witness said Donohue stood
about two feet from the glass panel.
Ronderio Emorenzo, one of the ac-
cused, was the next witness. He tes-
tilted that he had lived in Norwich
since he came to the country, nine
We RS ago. He roon1ed at No. 20 Ward
street, and was employed at the power
house of the Norwich and Westerly
Traction company. He had known
Charley Crandall for a long while and
had known Larsen and Don0hue about
four months.
On Dec. is, just after noon, he saw
CrandaI, Donohue and Larsen in a
trolley car at the power. station, but
no arrangement was made at that time
for a visit to the Rathbun house. About
4 o'clock Crandall suggested going
somewhere where there was money,
and 1t was arranged to see him that
evening at o'clock. Donohue said
that Crandan must have some money.
and in fact that all were in need of
money. Donohue did the talking and
Crandall stood near. They didn't say
he told them they better not bother
and abandon the project. Witness
went to Norwich at SIS and met DON
ohue and Larsen.
They said that Charley crandaII had
the whole thing planned out, and that
there would be no trouble getting the
money Witness got on the car bound
to Westerly in Franklin square at Z
o'clock, and Donohue and Larsen join
ed him at Preston bridge. They got
off the car at the station above Mains
crossing. Crandan was not with Them
for he said his presence would be
dead give-away.
Witness carried a bundle that con-
tanned a pair of overalls that was
handed him by Donohue. The first he
saw OF pistols was when at the Rath-
bun home. Donovan and Larsen had
pistols, but witness had none. He did
not know who gave them the pistols.
Witness told his associates to come
a way and quit the job and save trou-
bic, but Donoh1e said: mo, the money
is here. and We must get it"
Witness, Donohue and Larsen were
at the front door when Mr.. Rathbun
first responded to the knock. Witness
asked for a cup of coffee. and Dono-
hue asked for a lantern. They stood
close to each other.
Witness said he felt scared and |
again pleaded with his associates: |
Come away home and leave the old |
man alone. Donohue again said no. |
Witness said he kicked the front /
door and shattered the glass, and Don
ivan called Mr.. Rathbun an old cuss,
and warned him to give up the money.
Donovan said we were going to burn
he house and barn, but there was no
such intention. He said he would fix
he old man, but did not hear him
make any reference to Mrs. Ratf1bun.

CARUSO is BITTER.
Singer Says lie Has Lost Heayily-NC
Money for Shop Girl.

Rome.-Caruso tells the Milan cor
respondent of Rome newspaper that
he is better and hopes his throat will
be completely cured. He estimates
his losses at 100000, in addition to
$4,000 spent for treatment, and
spoke bitterly about the reports that
his career is finished.
Referring to the Milan shop girls
breach of promise suit, Caruso smiled
scornfully at her claim of $4,000.
He gave a detailed account Of their
meeting in Milan, and declared that
his attentions to her never exceeded
mild filtration. He said he only
grasped the situation when the girl,
Sicilian beauty named Pauline Cd-
reti, visited him in Berlin, accOmpan-
led by her father, though he confess
ed that he paid the expenses Of their
journey. He sent her back to Milan,
clearly intimating that he wanted
complete freedom.
Caruso closed the interview by de-
| claring that he does not care a rap
what the girls family may do; he VIII
hot give her another cent.

NORMANDY LIVES OVER
1000 YEARS OF HISTORY

Rouen, France.-When Rollo, the
bold, bad buccaneer of the North
land, after years spent in ravaging
the coasts of England and France,
was at last brought before the sue
cessor Of Charlemagne who ruled
over France, he was told that he
must manifest his servility by kissing
the royal foot. The pirate, brought
before that Charles who was called
The Simple, instead Of groveling to
earth to imprint a chaste salute upon
the toe Of the imbecile monarch,
grasped the pedal extremity and,
standing the unfortunate king upon
his head, brought the toe TO his lips.
This is but one Of a myriad of
strange events that are being re-en-
acted in Normandy in celebration Of
its 1000 tn birthday. The clock has
been turned back a thousand years
and all the history of that long period
will, between now and September,
be unrolled in panoramic pageantry
for the delectation of Frenchmen and
the great crowds of tourists from all
over the world who have come to
Rouen to witness the spectacle.
Today's repetition or the Rollo
pleasantly was witnessed by thou
sands of Americans and was but a
part of the mimicry of a day usher
ed in by the ringing of the far-fam-
ed chimes of Normandy. From an
artistic viewpoint, the Rouen celebra-
tion far surpasses in beauty and mag
nificence the more pretentious pa
geantry which attracted hundreds of
thousands to London. Whereas the
British decorations and pageants were
garish and brazen, those of Normandy
are in excellent taste and pleasing to
the eye of the most critical artist. In
stead Of cheap bunting, gay old tap
estries fly from the windows of Rou-
en-, lighting UP the streets with gra-
cious color as calacades Of armored
knights and magnificent corteges pas;
by.
Americans and Englishmen have an
interest in the celebration because OF
the fact that it was in Normandy ir
| the village of st. Clair-sur-Epte on
the road toward Paris, that the yer!
foundations of the English language
were laid a thousand years ago
Charles the Simple, finding himsel
unable to cope with the pirates from
the Northland, secured a peace b,
ceding to the invaders all of the pres
ent province of Normandy. But 70
this momentous event, England woul,
have remained purely Saxon.
The Normans who were later to in
wade England came originally fror
Norway, Sweden or Denmark. Whic
of these three countries may right
claim the honor is unknown and mus
ever remain so. Rollo, the leadin
man of the Vikings. was given Gisel'
the daughter of Charles the Simpl'
in marriage.

some sort of harvest in the northern
section where previous to the rainfall
tx is doubtful whether it would have
paid to turn the wheels Of the ma
chimes.
There are stretches of ground even
in that gloomy section of Gillian
county, along the line of the Oregon
Washington Railroad G. Navigation
company, that will harvest this year,
If no damage results from this time
forward, fully 10 bushels an acre.
Considering conditions prior to the
late rainfall this Is scarcely believe
able except by those who have wit
messed the contrast between before
and after.
1t would not be right even to in
innate that this Is the general condi-
tion of the wheat crop in northern
Gillian, but as stated there are ex-
ceptions to the generally poor situa-
tion there.
There are many fields in northern
Gillian that will produce scarcely
enough wheat to feed a canary bird,
let alone pay harvesting expense
However, only n small percentage of
the acreage there is sown TO wheat
this year, most of 1t being in sum-
uter fallow
one of the conditions most noted
in northern Gillian is the fact that
those who have a respectable yield
this season are the ones who conserv-
ed the small amount OF moisture in
the ground. For instance, Dell Price
g,f a,.f. nl fxu-A
miles north of Condor. has the best
of prospects for a harvest of 20
bushels TO the acre. Leo Shelly,
whose place adjoins, has barley that
will go 80 bushels.
Conditions in the Mayville and Fer
ry canyon sections are materially
better than year ago. The yields
in the Ferry canyon fields will aver
age close to 15 bushels per acre.
William Brown has 400 acres Of blue
! stem and fortyfold that promise a
yield of 90 bushels. This is fall
grain.
George b. Durbek, one of the big
farmers of this section, having one
/ better crop than year ago. How
ever, he always has a good yield. His
promise is a 80 bushel yield.
J Andy Greiner with several thous-
and acres in wheat will likewise have
better yield than in 1910.
w. A. Campbell with 500 acres will
harvest close to 80 bushels per acre
this season.
The condition of the barley crop is
the best in years, there seemingly
. having been little damage to this
grain from the protracted dry wea-
ther.
Alfalfa hay crop is excellent.
