side his tow small sons and betraying
no emotion, Ed Warning heard five
state witnesses give the testimony,
which held him for trial on charge

not guilty and the state placed five
witnesses on the stand. DR.. Il. Bevels

alton and DR.. Edwin de Barry state

sis OF the organs We're the chief wit
nesses for the state. DR.. de Barry, de-
clared there were traces Of strychnne
in both the stomach and liver.

which occurred at Loving, aroused
suspicion and the body was eXhumed
in order that an anlysis of vital or.
gans might be made.
When he was arrested, Warning was
SDiritcd from the potpau iail %
the state penitentiary at McAlestes
Feeling was running high over lie

the district court. Feeling has sub
sided and Sheriff +. G. Carter de-
clared that he thought Warning would

course. will reduce the taxes of all.
Taxes are too high. 1, as your as
