Testimony designed to establish physical abnormality with a conse- quent mental responsibility on the part of Bernice Anderson was of fered by the witnesses for the de- fense yesterday throughout the en- tire day, the third of the trial of the slayer of Jack Wilson.
 Court opened promptly at 10 o'clock, Mrs. Blanche Castle being the first witness to take the stand She stated she was the wife of Man Lel R. Castle, a soldier. She had lived with Bernice Anderson from July, 1915, to November, 1917, had associated with her as a practical lurse and as a friend. The defend Int's mind dwelt on sex relations. When not working, the defendant seemed to dislike saying indoors, wanted to be up and going, especially put of doors. Mrs. Anderson tried suicide in Phoenix at the Commercial Lotel, when the two were down to he fair. This was over a young man who was not steady con4pany," but just that one particular time with Jut-" Here the witness voice ,railed off into nothingness, not fin .Shing the sentence.
 On cross examination by the pros acution, the witness admitted she lad been asleep when the defendant came in the hotel room, and remained SO until morning Then the only thing that attracted her attention was thath the room had been arranged and the dresser, tidied, and the bath tub had water in it. The defendant later told the witness she had con templated suicide, planning to cut herself with safety razor blade while lying in tub of water to keep from making a mess i'll the sleeping room.
 The prosecution developed that the young man had kept company with the defendant before, hut the recollection of the witness was rather hazy as to how long and just when. However, the attorney for the prose cution did not press the point.
 Under cross examination, the wit ness testified that the relations of herself and the defendant from No vember, 1917 (when the two ceased to room together) to the time of the killing, were practically the same as before, namely, that of associates and friends.
 Witness admitted she and the de- fendant "bobbed" their hair and af iected the same dress, but efforts of the prosecution to get the witness to admit that they ran" the streets when not employed in actual nursing met with partial failure, the witness claiming the woods" were visited quite often i'll their out of doors itin- erary.
 C. c. Riebeling, the next witness, offered testimony designed to sub stantiate that given by Mrs. Riebel- ing, his wife), when on the stand. He offered nothing new, except that he had heard some of the feminine discussion of sex matters and that on several occasions the defendant lost her temper and acted, as he thought, insane on some subjects. She be- came angry at him once, but about what he did not state, and neither the prosecution or the defense saw fit to determine the reason.
 Mrs. Edward B. Pentland of Mayer testified that she met the de- fendant's mother about 26 years ago, Mrs. Wiley, the mother, being at that time around 30 years old. Her phys ical makeup was the same.
 An attempt on the part of the de- fense to compare the mental char acteristics of the mother with those of the defendant met with an objec- ton on the part of the prosecution, the question being withdrawn. Mrs. Pentlan testified that the father of
