TESTIMONY OF
JOB HARTMAN
FAVORS BARROW

Los Angeles, Cal, July 10,-Fol-
lowing up his testimony of yesterday
when he denied that he called on
Clarence DarrOw November 2S last
and handed him $4,000, Job Harri-
man resumed the witness stand in
the Darrow trial today and traced
his actions on the day in question.
Hartman admitted that he visited the
vaults of the German-American Saw
ings bank, the depository of the Nc
Namara defense fund, November 28.
He explained that his visit was to
secure $500 to deposit in the Cali
fornia Savings bank to provide bal
ance against which he might draw
his check for $3.50 in payment of a
promissory note against him held by
Mrs. Laura Dubyns.
On the following day, Hartman
testified, he returned to the German
American bank and took away 500
more, which he found was necessary
to insure his balance at the Califor-
MIA bank.
The note, Harriman's bank books
and the check with which he paid
the note will be introduced as evi-
dence. The check is in possession Of
the district attorney. 1t was used, 1t
is claimed, during the recent county
grand jury investigation.

Astonished Husband.
always i.

DE Wolfe Hopper tells a good story
about the domestic unhappiness OF an
other actor. The hero OF the joke was
a man who had married because the
woman had much money, although no
beauty. Naturally after the wedding
ceremony and the acquisition OF the
brides financial resources, the hus-
band was never very attentive TO her.
Another member of the company in
which the couple were appearing was,
however. far more appreciative OF the
lady's charms, and proceeded TO make
love TO her in an ardent but stealthy
manner. The grand finale came one
evening when the actor discovered
the other man kissing his wife. The
fond lover stood petritied with fear,
and expected TO be shot down the
next moment.
No such thing happened. The out
ragged husband only lifted his hands
toward the ceiling with a gesture OF
intense surprise, and exclaimed:
"Merciful heavens! And he didn't
even have to-"
