DDS of influencing the men chosen. The

our knowledge OF the man. Thomas A.
Kirby may differ with us in his opinions
as to how to accomplish results, but he
will certainly discharge the duties of
High Sheriff of Kent County with fidelity
to the public interests, as well as his
own. In Sussex county the men chosen
are all capable men; they had to be to

Office of them all in county affairs who
has had twelve years experience, and

This was the dramatic juncture in
the evidence Of Jacob Bergen. In the
John Krafchenko murder trial, this
morning.
Bergen, who is typical Mennonite
In appearance, gave his evidence
without the aid Of an interpreter. and
seems to possess fair working
knowledge OF English. He told Of
standing in his yard about 1e0 feot
from where the shooting occurred,
and Of seeing the two fellows" run
out of the bank. and around the side
of 1t towards the rear.
The man in black was leading. and
Arnold. the banker, was following.
The man In black wheeled just be-
fore the banker reached the ash pile,
in the rear Of the bank. and shot
down his pursuer.
At the instance Of Mr.. Hastings. the
witness gave an exemplication of the
gun play. and his effort, to produce
the motions of the gunman were
somewhat awkward and stiff.
The prisoner smiled as the scene
was being enacted. and on catching
the eye of some person in the court.
he grinned broadly.
The men were walking rapidly,
and. according to Bergen's evidence.
they were not at any time In contact,
as far as he could see.
It is expected. according to Hast
ings. crown prosecutor. that the trial
will proceed with greater celebrity
once the German speaking witnesses
have finished. Hastings, however.
has come to Morden prepared, IL nec-
essary. for four weeks stay.
