Mrs. Funk was present, occupy.

under escort Of deputy sheriff
and accompanied by his wife,
seemed somewhat refreshed from
the ordeal through which he had

Anderson had exclaimed, my
God, they can't suspect me-"
It was when the Attorney for
the defense painted to the jury
the story Of how if the jury
brought in a verdict Of guilty, on
guesses, as he termed them, they
might lead the young defendent
to the gallows, and how his moth
er, his sisters and his wife would
be waiting outside to receive his
body cold and stiff, with his
face distorted by the effects Of
the hangman's moose that Ander-
son and his relatives wept the
: most. H.
Before closing he recalled how
certain testimony had touched on
the fact that Anderson and his
wife had had trouble and that
a few days before the murder
she had left him and gone to
= Fargo. What better reason said
the attorney, could she have had
for securing a divorce and never
coming back to him if she had
thought him guilty when she
heard Of him being arrested. Blu
she Immediately came back to hin
and has taken his part. You
have seen her, gentlemen beside
him every day since the trial
started" continued Mr.. Bangs.
"She has known better than you
or | whether or not he is guilty,
because she is closer to him
than any Of us and has informa-
ton that none Of us can ever ex-
pect to get"
It was not till he had analys-
ed every piece Of testimony Of
fered by the state and the de-
tense as well that the great lawy-
err thanked the jury and said he
was through.
He demonstrated to the jury
that there were pieces Of red flan
mel lint in two cleaning rods IN
stead of one as Atates Attorney
Maennel had testified.he had toun
in one with a magnifying glass.
He discovered the lint in the
two rods before the jury and con-
WINGED them that they could see
it with the naked eye. He dis
sected the testimony Of Herb Han
son and his wife, and Of Tom
Madden and his wife. He term
ed them the four star witnesses
for the state called attention to
the remark that Hanson had
made when he admitted on the
stand that it made no difference
to him eff they cut Anderson in
to inch pieces and threw him into
the river" He believed that ex-
cmplified the spirit and venom
Of Hanson and the Hansons and
Maddens were cronies and were
together when they heard the
shot fired.
He again admonished the jury
as to that bibeical expression,
'.Thou Shalt Not KILL" and told
the jury it would not be helping
society to punish the wrong man:
IL asked the jury to consider all
the testimony and evidence of
this case with the utmost caution
and when he had finished, it
could not be again said that he
had probably made the greatest
effort that had ever been made
in the state of North Dakota in
the behalf Of any mans life:

Canon City postoffice. having an as-
gregaie weight of between two and
three tons. There originated at this

CONSIDERABLE BUIL0InG
G0ING ON At PRESENT

buildings OF a semi-pubiic cha-ac-
ter are in course OF erection In Can
on City. or have resently been COM
pleted. costing fully one hundred and
seventy thousand dollars; which is a
better showing than can be made by
most towns OF like population in this
state. The outlay alluded to will go
into four structures; the Odd Fellows
hom. costing 100000; the Santa re
station. costing $4,000: the Y. NJ. 9.
A. building. costing $4,000. and the
addition to the Graves hospital. cost
ing $4,000. The two latter structures
have been finished for some time and
the hospital extension is being used;
the Y. NJ. c. A. will be in the course
OF few weeks.
Besides there has been a good deal
OF money put into the construction of
cottages and IN improvements TO res
idenoe property. which would swell
the amount of cash that has gone IN
to the building trades here during the
last few months. The new admins
tration building at the penitentiary

will cost the state $4,000. but could
not be duplicated outside the walls
OF the prison for less than four times
