told of having been instructed by Dr.
Roberts to follow Mrs. Roberts on the
afternoon of the tragedy with view
of learning where she was going. he
returned. stating she had gone to the
Mills home Attorney Lockney, Tor
the defense, sought to learn the nature
of MANY conversations said to have
taken place between the witness ana
DIR. and Mrs. Roberts, but Blot proved
a reluctant witness. He related the
details of what transpired at the NILS
home following the discovery OF Mrs.

Sheriff Morris produced exhibits for
the defense comprising thirteen docu-
ments and letters, some OF them

COLLAR BONE BROKEN.

John Garner is considered fairly
expert horse wrangler, and he can
generally stick to any mount he hap
pens to straddle. Occasionally he meets
up with gan animal that outclasses him
and he had the bad luck to tackle one
of that kind SATURDAY morning at Mrs.
e. X. Stanton's place in the south
part of town. Mr.. Garner had hardly
hit the saddle before the horse entered
a protest in the usual way and the
rider was unceremoniously shot OF
into the surrounding atmosphere.
When he landed he suffered fracture
of the collar bone on the left side. DR..
Lewis put the sufferer under the X
rays, and by that means discovered
that the break was an unusual one. A
piece of the bone was broken off, and
the cracks ran on the bias, showing
that the young man had not hit very

was wholly accidental.

the saw mills southeast of Oroville has
been having a hard run of luck recent

broken from fall, and Sunday evening
he was thrown from hack in which he

right foot. DR.. Lewis patched him up,
and II he meets with no more accidents
he will be around in few weeks.
