But Darling Threatened oIson's Life

St. Paul, Mimi, April S.-Testifying
Monday in the trial of her husband,
Prof. Oscar Olson, charged with the
murder of Clyde N. Darling, Mrs.
Olson declared that she had warned
Darling to remain away from her
home. When Mrs. Olson threatened to
tell her husband of alleged relations
between herself and Darling, she testi-
fed, Darling replied: IF you tell
him, I'll fix him."
On another occasion, when Darling
insisted on talking to her when they
met on the street, she told him that he
must cease his visits to her.
'If you mean that, will tell every
driver in town what you are" was
Darling's reply, according to Mrs.
Olson. ~~'. '4...t II. :

of her 5-year-old daughter when Darl

replied that the child was at neigh
i. boris home. .-
