During the examination OF the tales
men Mrs. Carman sat with a search
Ing eye upon each as the District
Attorney placed his questions. The
feathers upon her hat bobbed and

her heartbeats. One was tempted to
count them by the watch, and the
result was count OF ninety-two beats

Of tho feathers, Mrs. Carman was a.
sti!l as "a statue. She sat rather stiny
In her chair.
