left, but said he did not consider it
necessary to call him again. Soon after
Summaries death an undertaken was
sent for and preparations made 90 en-

prevented by the arrival of Dr. Larned.
who made an examination of the body
and arranged for a post mortem Had
the body been embalmcd before DR..
Larned arrived, II has been contend
ed by some, all traces of the strych-
nine might have been removed by
the formaldahyde, although two ply
sicians stated that the poison was
present in such large quantities that il
would have been discovered despite
embalming.
The Rammes girl is expected to
testify as she did at the inquest, that
Stannard exclaimed after swallowing
his first drink OF coffee at breakfast:
'"For Gods sake, what's the matter
with this coffee and that upon pour
ing the remainder of the contents OF
the cup into the kitchen sink, and find
ing a sediment in the bottom of the
cup he exclaimed: MY God. that's
poison
No hint has been dropped of what
defense will be made by counsel foI
Mrs. Stannard though the general
supposition is that an attempt will
be made to establish that Stannard
committed suicide. Since the first ac-
cusation was made against her Mrs
Stannard has not uttered a word IN
answer, and, on advice of counsel, re-
fused to testify at the inquest. The
defense is said TO count upon testiuo-
ny she will give as its strongest card.

INTEREST IN WALKING.
Effort viii Be Made to Revine Interest
For Comma Year.

There is every indication now that
there will stirring time among the
walkers next year, especially at the
olympic games. Because George
Coulding the Canadian, has beaten
Larner and Webb, the two best men in
England. this year he looked Ia be the
logical candidate for the honors at
Stockholm. While everybody admits
the superiority of the yeungster from
the Dominion it is not So very GER
tain that he will have it all his own
way, for out Of the iWids of the Trans
vail. South Africa, has emerged a new
aspirant. At n recent meet given by
the Johannesburg Harriers \. c. G.
ST. Norman won the three miles in 20
minutes 40 seconds, and as the tim
ing was reliable and the track meas
urement correct the figures will go on
the books as South African record.
1t is 20 1-5 seconds faster than the
present American outdoor record To
the credit of Frank Murray, yet IL is
23 1-5 seconds slower than the worlds
mark for the distance made by Iarner
i'm 1905. A report of the contest is
to the effect that Norman won as he
liked and had there been any one along
to push him he might have set up
new worlds figures.

last. by putting strychnine in the
coffee served him at breakfast, fol-
lowing quarrel between the two, She
was placed under arrest May 10 last
Great public interest is manifested in
the case.
The state will charge, when the trial
opens Monday, that Mrs Stannard and
her husband quarreled when Stannard
came home i'm an intoxicated condi-
tion the night of March %. and that
while assisting a domestic, Grace Ham
mes with the preparation of breakfast
on March 26, Mrs. Stannard dropped
q quantity of strychnlne into stan

ed The state depends upon the testi-
mony of the Hammes girl TO Sdbstan

the largest factor i'm convincing the

II hopes to clinch its case with the
testimony Of DR.. Victor G. Vaughn
dean of the medical department of the
University of Michigan that his exam
ination of Stannard's vi8cora revealed
enough stryehnne 90 have caused the
death of fifteen Ben.
The state ALSO counts for corrobo-
rative testimony from the two Stan

and Elaine, Is. They testified at the
inquest that their mother had been
in the habit of giving their father
powders to cure drunkenness and
that lpe had been taking them for
months i'm coffee without his knowl-
edge. The children also stated that
| their parents had not been on friend
~ terms for the two weeks proceed
had not spoken TO each other foI
several days before the quarrel inn
mediately preceding Stannard's death.
A witness around whose testimony
much interest will center is Samuel
Goard. unmarried, aged 40. an inti-
mate friend of Stannard and Mrs

created sensation. Goard was called
