was said in my room. Mr.. Owen asked
If I worked in drug store in February,
1911 and I said I thought I did. He
said he wanted me to come and testify
in the Orner case to the effect that a
man named J. D. Lee came and bought
some arsenic of me, telling me he
wanted to poison a dog and that sold
him the arsenic, and that shortly
thereafter Lee came back to me and
said for me not to tell anybody I had
sold him the arsenic, as L might get
into trouble.
Says He Was Given SO.
Mr. Owen told me to describe the
man Lee as man about my height and
that he was dressed IN oYerallS when
he came in. He told me he would give
me $50 for doing this and he gave me
a nice cigar and SO. As he left me. he
said he would send for me to come to

The statement Of the witness. Maese

Maese,s Statement.
The statement Of the witness, Maese,
to the grand jury was as follows:
about 10 days ago a Mexican came
to me and told me If I would testify
in the Orner case to the effect that
while I was employed in a drug store
during February, 1911, a man named
J. D Lee came to me and purchased
some arsenic, that I would be paid 500
for it told my employer, Mr.. Peak,
and he reported the matter to the au-
thorities Immediately. The authorities
came to see me and instructed me to go
through with the matter. 1 was later
telephoned by a lawyer, who said he
wanted to see me. I made an engage
ment to meet the lawyer in my room. in
the rear of the Peak undertaking es-
adjustment which meeting was to be
Saturday night, October 4 The lawyer
phOned me on Saturday night, saying
he would call on me Sunday morning.
81 reported all this to the authorities,
who came to my room and installed
some kind Of a machine. On Sunday
morning at $3.50 o'clock Charles Owen
called on me and brought him back
to my room. At that time the cellar
below my room was full Of sheriffs and
other officers and they had an operator

Orner Trials Cost $4,000.
So far at least $4,000 have been ex-
pended by the state and county in try
ing Mrs. Orner- While the case has
been tried away from FL Paso four
times, Ell Paso county is still paying
all the bills. for the reason that the
alleged homicide occurred in Ell Paso
county.
Testimony of Grand Jurors.
Court convened at o'clock Friday
morning. The state offered the tes-
timony Of the grand Jurors before
whom Tom Delaney was said to have
testified with regard to his relations
with Mrs. Orner. The defendants at
tOrneys objected to the testimony for
the reason that the state could not
imDeach witness on an immaterial
issue and whether or not Delaney had
had such improper relations with Mrs.
Orner was immateriad to the case.
Defence Objection Sustained.
The states theory was that it was
material to show the animus of the
witness Delaney in testifying for Mrs.
Orner. but the court sustained the OBJ
lection. so neither James A. Dick. Put
nam or Care were put on the stand.
Both Sides Close
closed. and defendant closed. Under
the new law the jury must be charged
before argument of counsel and the
charge of the court must be submitted
to counsel for the defendant to file
their objections to it. The courts
charge was already prepared and was
submitted to counsel for defendant and
they asked for time in which to file
their objections and exceptions to the
charge. The court granted them IN
til 1870 D. m.
Defence Raises Point.
Counsel for the defendant raised the
point that the SD legislature repealed
all laws with relation to murder in the
first degree and therefore that the de-
fendant cannot be found guilty of any
thing. The charge of the court merely
submits to the jury the question of
whether or not the defendant is guilty
of murder. The Indictment charges
murder in the first degree.
The penalty for murder under the
law passed at the last session of the
legislature is death or confinement in
the penitentiary for any term Of years.
not less than five. while the penalty
under the old statute for murder in the

STORY Of FAMOUS
CIVIL WAR FIGHT
Battle of Gettysburg Which
Brought Credit to Both
Blue and Gray.
TURNING POINT OF CONFLICT
Total Losses on Both Sides In Three
Days Fighting Over 5o,ooo-Sev-
eral Generals Killed and
Wounded.
By EDWARD 3, CLARK.

~ DASHlNGTON.-It Is posi-
BILE, some people would say
probable, that the Battle of
Gettysburg changed utterly
the course of American his
tory. 1t was a great fight between
armies of Americans, for probably
fully ninety per cent of the men who
fought on the two sides were born
natives to the American soil. The
bravery shown at Gettysburg was Of
the order which Americans have
shown on every field and which re-
fleets credit upon the hardy and
heroic ancestry Of the men engaged,
no matter from what race they may
have sprung.
At Gettysburg there was nothing to
choose between the valor of the North
and the South. The South lost the
fight, but 1t lost 1t honorably and
with the prestige Of it's soldiery I'M
dimmed. The charges made on that
field have gone down into history as
assaults made under conditions which
every man felt might mean death at
the end. The defenses made at Gettys-
burg were Of the kind which 1t takes
Iron in the blood to make perfect. At
Gettysburg Northerners and South
erners replenished their store of re-
spect for their antagonists. The bat
tie marked the high tide of the war
between the states. After it the
e South largely was on the defensive,
but its defense was maintained with
fortitude'and in the face of prvations
which could not chill the blood of
men fighting for what they thought
was the right.
The Northern armies were perss-
tent In their attacks through the cam
paigns which after a few months were
started aginst the objective point,
Richmond. Brave men here and brave
men there. and after the end came it
was the qualities which keep COM
pany with bravery which made the
soldiers of the North and South SO
ready to forget and to forgive and to
work again for the good of a COM
mon country.
The great battle Of Charlottesville
was fought not long before the oppos-
ing Union and Confederate forces met
on the field of Gettysburg. Chancel-
louisville was a Confederate victory.
The Southern government believed
that the victory should be followed up
by an invasion of the North for, ac-
cording to its reasoning, if an import
ant engagement could be won upon

land from invasion. a condition which
military men say always adds a sub
tie something to the fighting quality
which Is in any man. Some authori-
ties have said that there were 100 900
men in the Confederate forces at Get
tysburg to be confronted by 10000
Union troops. Another authority SAYS
that the Confederate force was 81 900
and the Union force $4,000 AS it was
the armies were pretty nearly equally
divided in strength.
In June. 1868. General Robert E.
Lee began to move northward. Lee
concentrated his army at Winchester,
Va, and then started for the Potomac
river. which he crossed to reach the
state of Maryland. He fully expected
to be followed by General Hooker's
army and SO General Stuart with a
large force of cavalry was ordered by
Lee to keep in front of Hookers army
and. to check his pursuit of the Con-
federates If 1t was attempted
Late In June the Confederate force
reached Hagerstown, in the state of
Maryland. 1t was General Lees in
tention to strike Harrisburg, Pa,
which was great railroad center
and city where Union armies were
recruited and from which all kinds of
supplies were sent out to the soldiers
in the field. While the Southern com
mander was on his way with a large

their destination had a short hand-to-
hand encounter with the northern sol
diers. 1t was soon over and Picketts
charge, glorious for all time in his
tory, was a failure in that which 1t
attempted to do, but was a success as
helping to show the heroism of Amer
lean soldiers.
The losses at Gettysburg on both
sides were enormous. The Union
army lost Generals Zook, Farnsworth,
Weed and Reynolds. killed; while Ora
ham, Barnes, Gibbon, Warren, Double
day, Barlow. Sickles. Butterfield and
Hancock were wounded. The total
casualties killed wounded, captured
or missing on the Union side num-
bered nearly "a 900 men. On the Con-
federate side Generals Semmes, Pen
der, Garnet, Armistead, and Banks
dale were killed, and Generals Kemp
er, Kimbal, Hood, Heth, Johnson and
Trimble were wounded. The entire
Confederate loss is estimated to have
been nearly 10000 men.
The third days fight at Gettysburg
was a victory for northern arms, but
it was a hard won fight and the con
iiict reflects luster today upon the
north and the south. Lee led his
army back southword, later to con
front Grant in the campaigns which
finally ended at Appomattox.
