.,ttack, an Insult like other In
Stances which have occurred during
this trial."
The Insults" referred to were the
frequent Tits which have occurred
between Jellison and Schwartz.
These were of a particularly heated
and personal nature this morning.

virorously. 1t came unpaeasantly
near the face of Jellison. The as
sistant prosecutor threw It aside
and as il came ack slapped
schwartz smartly or the wrist.
Judge Cleveland was forced to
admonish the attorneys frequently.
Frank McNally who spent two
hours on the witness stand yester-
dav afternoon was the first witness
this morning. After a few aues-
lions he was passed to the defense
for cross examination.
The first question put to McNally
struck at the question of his age.
Despite his insistence that he is
but A, Mrs McNally declares he is
all OF So.
McNally reiterated that he is IA.

Jailed in South Bend on an assault

Schwartz asked.

McNally replied.
This provoked a litter in the
court room.
Cross examination then led into
a. visit McNally paid his wife at the
jail
Didn't you ask her to return and
live with your"
Il did not"
'Didn't you tell her you were sor-
ry?"
NO"
McNally appeared to be growing
angry. His foot nervously tapped
the floor.
Now, isn't it e fact that you did
no file a complaint charging Mrs
McNally with murder until she had
employed an attorney and refused
to return to live with your"
Eyes" McNally replied with some
heat. 1T is true about the attor-
ney, but did not ask her to come
back and live with me-"
Counsel for Mentally here raised
strenuous objections. He demanded
that the court not permit counse
to attack" him. defense counsel re-
piled that he was attacking only his
| practices"

threatened the prosecutor.
McNally refused to be shaken II

SCHWARTZ sprang the question: do
you recall the time MRS turner was
at your house and you took her in
to the bedroom and opened a dresser
drawer and showed her two doll
heads?"
McNally said that he did.
do you remember saying that
Hazel had been palming off dolls on
you instead of babies and you want

Il do not" he replied.
The baby carriage was brought

that the babies were getting TO,

Mrs. Lauerman said she heard the

MRS. TOUHY's AFTERNOON

Happy voices and contented play
ers could have been found in the at
tractive little bungalow at the cor
ner of Birch and Sexton streets when
Mrs. Touhy was entertaining a
limited number of her friends on
Tuesday afternoon. There were two
groups, one light hearted, with ami
mated conversation that proved en-
PERTAINING to the last minute; the
other seriously working at the game
with occasionally an ouburst of sur
prise at the temporary success of one
of their number.
The refreshments were choice, one
course, proving so delicious and elu-
sive in flavor that the hostess was
asked to whisper the name of the
dish in our ear, but it slipped away
too, so all that remains is a pleasant
memory.
Mrs. Frank Bergman carried
away mysterious little package
wrapped in tissue, the size of card
pack, that she had won at play,
while the visiting group each wore
fine rosebuds and ferns. Mrs. Teuhy
thoughtfully rem m b cred her
mother, Mrs. Adair, with luncheon
set that was nicely stitched and en-
broidered by hand.
Mrs. Backus was an out of town
guest, Miss Rogers pleased with her
violin, and Mrs. Guy Stevens was a
valued assistant to the hostess.

MRS. MALCOM BROUGHT HOME

Mrs. E. T. Malcolm, who has been
at the hospital at Pocatello in a
dangerous condition, was brought
home the first of the week without
having any operation as contem-
plated when she went there. There
was a surgical operation in October,
and while she was still very weak
from it, horrible accident occurred
at neighbours and she witnessed it
thru the window, and it had a very
disastrous affect upon her. 1t was
the case of the little daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Wright whose clothes
took fire and she ran out into the
yard and suffered the agonies of
burning alive.
This scene, sufficient to greatly
shock the strongest hearts, was such
a blow to Mrs. Malcolm in her weak
ened and sensitive condition that
it seemed no human agency could
overcome it and she has never re-
covered her strength and composure
