morning session.
Congressman Byrnes first addressed
the jury for the defense. He contend
ed that the prosecution had failed to
produce any evidence to connect Beach
with the assault. AS he spoke, Mrs.
Beach appeared weary for the first
time during the trial Resting her
chin upon a gloved hand, she gazed at
the lawyer through tired eyes.
ELOQUENT PLEA TO JURY.
Mr.. Brynes spoke for half an hour
and then yielded the remainder of his
time to Judge w. C. Davis, of defense
counsel, who made an eloquent appeal
to the jury in behalf of Beach. Col D.
S. Henderson closed for the defense.
He began by reading to the court
the instructions he asked to be includ-
ed in the judges charge to the jury.
What motive did Beach have for
cutting his wife," asked Col. Hender-
son, addressing the jury. mot only
has the prosecution failed to prove that
Beach committed the assault, it was
unable to show any reason for his do
ing it. He didn't do it and the one who
was assaulted has told you that he
didn't do 1t. Would you convict a yell
low dog of anything on the evidence
that has been offered here?'
Col Henderson concluded shortly be-
fore noon and after a short recess
Prosecutor Gunter began his closing
argument.
SOME THINGS NOT TOLD
The prosecutor attacked the story
told by Mrs. Beach. terming 1t a mere
fabrication, no more and no less" He
said it was absurd fer her to claim
that the alleged negro assailant had
forced her to the ground with his
two hands and afterwards hit her il
the head with a stick that she said he
was carrying when he entered the
yard.
Mrs. Beach never told how she got
around the corner of the house where
her earrings and comb were found,
declared the solicitor. "She claims to
have been forced to her knees on the
front walk. Then again Mrs. Beach
says she did not scream until after
the negro had cut her. Don't you
know that she screamed and kept
screaming the minute her assailant,
whoever 1t was, touched her? All thai

There may be some force to the
militants argument At least it is a
matter of history that every important
extension of the suffrage in England
from the days of the Magma Charta
down to the present has been brought
about either by force or by show of
force. Back in the eighties when the
