 This Taylor denied. He said that the money had been given him by the proseeutrix in the course of a more or less persistent pursuit of him, to be used by him as he might see fit.

 On crosse s-examination of Miss Akers it was brought out that she had no ac- count at the Valley Bank at that time to be credited with that or any other deposit, and that she had not subse- quently called at the bank to inquire as to whether her account had been fat tened.

In the course of a conversation with her she pub lished the bans and stated that as soon as Slim that is, Taylor was divorced from his wife she was going to Cali fornia with him to be married.
 The taxi driver said that he told her that nothing was doing: that Slim had kid that ne thought too much of to leave for any woman. Then he said that the complaining witness offered to bet him S5 that she would marry Slim.
