j. W. Conn. the Cedar Rapids travelling
man under trial in the district court for
a felony. was told by Conn on the wit

day. Not only did Conn recount his own
history. but also a good deal of the
history of his married life. and espe-
cially that part of it that resulted in
ne and his wife. Mrs. Elizabeth Conn,
separating. This separation later led
10 Mrs. Conn bringing suit for separate
maintenance. and Conn fling cross
petition for divorce.
Conn was called 10 the witness stand
in his own defense early Tuesday after
noon. He was still being cross exam
med when court took a recess at noon

said his wife accused him OF being too
intimate with. were dragged into the
record. Likewise the names OF Belle
PLANE woman and a Cedar Rapids
man, who ha. figured as causes for
trouble between Conn and his wife.
We're injected into the case. In fact
enough OF this testimony was brought
out at this hearing To furnish q very
material part of the evidence for the
separate maintenance and divorce case
when it is heard in Linn county
Conn described his wife as having
tine silarpest tongue that was ever put
on woman
At noon the indications were that the
trial would not be finished until after
