Points Made by Defense.

AS the prosecution failed to connect
Mrs. Eaton with administering the ar
senic which is alleged to have caused the
admirals death and failed to establish
where tho death poison was bought, the
establishing of this point by the defense
will materially aid Mrs. Eaton. The
widow Is expected TO take the stand
tomorrow and tell her story OF her life
with the admiral
Brown testified that he prescribed the
arsenic OF gold tablets for e disease with
which the admiral WAS suffering, The
Witness said he cautioned his patient
about the use OF the tablets on several
occasions and once the admiral replied:
Threat of Suicide.
II don't care what happens 70 me II
don't get well. I had Just as soon take
too many and probably will. II I am
found dead somebody will be accused of
my death
On another occasion the witness said
he saw the admiral have bottle with
sixty grains of arsenic IN II. A short
time after this Admiral Eaton called on
the physician and told him he did not
want any more Of the tablets, "for a
little child had swallowed two and died
q few hours later"
The witness said the former naval Of

None The Less Offensive
(Editorial.)


The interview given out in
Washington by one or more of
the Tazewell visitors. to Wash
ington last week, is published
on another page of this paper.
This same interview was pub
lished in the Roanoke Times in
its issue of last Tuesday. The
statement in the original inter-
view about Mr.. Whitley says:
Their objection to Whitleys's
appointment is the fact that he
was postmaster at North Taze-
well some years ago and was i'm
peached.". The publication in
the Times of this interview
says: Their objection to Whit
ley's appointment is the fact
that he was postmaster at North
Tazewell some years ago., and
leaves off the statement that he
was "impeached". If there was
any offcnse in the first publica.
ton it is not lessened in the
other publications, but leaves
the people to imagine anything
they please.

Dear Mr.. Editor:-Please allow
me space in your paper, along
with other citizens and tax-pay-
ers. to thank the supervisors
and road commissioner, ETC.,
of Jeffersonville district, for
assisting us in opening the road
on Rays Fork, which was i'm
passible, but now in a fair con-
dition, under the supervision
of G. G.. Payne. | worked along
with Chas. and he made a good
hand every day, although he did
not have to work. We would be
glad for the supervisors, and
road officers of Maiden Spring
district to inspect this road and
see what $500 has done, had
we had a part of the $527. 25,
which we were entitled too,
wasted on the Mcclure Valley,
we could have fixed our road in
good shape. | do hope that those
road officers in general will look
to the interest of the taxpayers
this year, and not try to take
care of so many pets. We are
getting tired
Yours truly,
A neighbor and taxpayer.

What's Wrong With Jack.

This postoffice scramble re-
minds me of the condition that
existed at Jerusalem. There
were a great many waiting for
the waters to be troubled, so
they could step in. Evidently
the angel has been down to
Washington. Whether the
waters have been troubled is a
question. But the fact remains
that the man who has done most
in quiet way has no angel to
put him in Our prayer is that
the powers that be will have
compassion on our Jack and say.
Take up thy bed and walk"
Everything that is messing
around Washington is not an
angel and a great deal depends
on who it is that troubles the
waters. If all the selfish motives
were uncovered that prompts
some people to oppose Jack May,
Jack would take up his bed and
walk in. | have no axe to grind,
but Jack May is deserving of as
much or more than any of them.
