Jury Hears Story Of Fatal
Attack From Lips Of
Aged Man.

Fl~jiy taking the stand, Gabriel
Garcia. 40. told the jury in the Nine
ty-fourth district court. Tuesday how
his aged wife was slain by bandits,
while he peered miserably about the
court room with eyes almost blinded
from the effects of the same robbery
in which the bandits beat him I'M
mcrcifully. For some time after the
robbery it was not thought he would
live.
He positively identified Anastacio
Vargas, the defendant, as one Of the
three men who broke into his little
home, IL miles south of the city, beat
Soth he and his wife into unconscious
ness. and sole $40-their lifetime saw
ings.
The testimony was given in Span
ish and repeated sentence by sentence
by an interpreter.
The trial of Vargas for the murder
of Louisa Garcia began Monday. The
entire first day was spent i'll the Sc
lection of n jury.
That the death penalty will be asked
by the state was indicated in the ex'
animation of the jurors, when the
states attorneys asked each prospect
i've juror il he had any conscientious
scruples against giving verdict car
rying the supreme penalty. When the
question is not asked the death pen
atty is waived.
Mrs. Garcia was killed near Elmen'
dorf, August 81, 1925. Her husband
Gabriel Garcia, was badly beaten al
the same time. They are alleged to
have been beaten with some blunt
instrument" A trunk. said to have
contained $40, was taken from theil
house and looted.
The aged woman died several days
after the attack. but her husband re-
covered and will be witness in the
trial.
Vargas is one of three men charged
with the murder. They are also
charged with assault to murder or
