DR.. T. E. Evans was the next wit
ness called to the stand and he testi-
! fed along the same lines as he did
at the murder trial and the insanity
inquisition. He stated that from his
observations of the defendant that
he was a victim of persecuatory para
noia, an ineurable and progressive
mental disease. He also stated that
in his opinion that Taylor was
dangerous man to be at large.
Dr. o. p Hamilton next took the
stand and he also corroborated the
testimony given by DR.. Evans on the
question of the present status of Tay-
lor's mental condition. He stated
that he was of the opinion that Tay-
lor would continue to suffer from
this arrangement as long as he lived

others, apparently became Disguised |

to leave town and had told him that

that the mail of the defendant haC
been tempered with. When caught
close by his interrogation he tried
yainly to qualify some of his state
ment. He was then questioned by
Mr.. Green relative to this notion and
Mr.. Green stated that since he had
begun to develop notions that it
might be well for the court to ex-
anime him for paranOia. He stated
to Attorney Green, 81 licked you
birds twice and it looks like you
would stay licked" He stated that
the letters were introduced at the
murder trial for the purpose of show
ing that at the time of the commits
sion of the act that Taylor could not
distinguish between right and wrong.
He also said that from his readings
on the subject that he was of the
opinion that Taylor might never
again have a re-occurrence of this
arrangement. In many of the letters
that were introduced by the defense
in the murder trial Taylor accused
Stafford of being a crook and Stat
ford stated that this was owing to
the fact that Taylor disagreed with
him on legal procedure. He said
that Taylor wanted to prove that he
was not subject to decisions and
that his attorney would not agree to
this procedure, and this was the rea-
son for the statement that Stafford
was crook. The attorney stated that
the defendant had also called his
own father crook but not in the
that is commonly taken of
The term. He stated that from what
he had seen and what he had heard
hat he believed that Taylor was the
1runt of joshing and jokes. On the
lay of the killing, he said, that Tay-
or was told in a joshing way that
was looking for him
With a gun. He stated that he was
f the opinion that this joshing drove
lim to commit the rash act that he
lid. He stated that the thought
hat the evidence adduced from the i
medical experts at the murder trial I
vas correct but that he did not be-
ieve it for he did not believe that
he medical science was correct s
cience. He said that the physicians

ion was up to and prior to the muir ]
er trial and that no evidence was v
Introduced that would prove he was c

First Cousin to Milady's Divided
Skirt Now Grapes Sheik's Limbs

Male Admirers.

Who says that old styles can't be
new? Divided skirts are being worn
again!
That is. the first cousin of divided
skirts is being worn-"Oxford bag
trousers. measuring % inches in cir
conferences at the ankle.
When the "Oxford bag" first made
its appearance in San Antonio. peo-
pie thought they must be seeing
double. 1t looked like too much
trouser to be just one pair. But the
haberdashers are real generous this
fall. Perhaps nowhere else in the
world are the young men getting as
much for their money as they are in
this country right now, unless it is
in Arabia where all the sheiks wear
yoluminous kimonas.
SHOES UNNECESSARY
Kings aren't the only ones who can
wear trains, now that the balloon
bottom trouser has received its extra
inches in width. The proper style is
to let 'em drag. Consequently it can
be truly said that our young men are
"swishing" across the streets or to the
movies, part of their oxford bags"
following them like Mary's little lamb.
Shoes are as useless to the wearer
Of the "Oxford bag" as a. necktie is

and of course sox are unnecessary.
Hence some of our prominent young
men may become barefoot boys again
that is, il they are economically in
clined.
The new extreme bell-bottom trou-
sers are being worn by the younger
men especially. and by college stu
dents and high school boys.
TWEED FAVORED
Tweed is the favored material, and
light colors are featured. Variations
of gray and lighter blues and browns
are being used. The material is usual
ly the rougher texture that is used
for sports and street wear.
With the Oxford trousers blue serge
coats are very good. During the sum-
mer for outdoor sport wear the coat
was not considered essential, but OF

WINTER GUESTS
. FILL VACANT
.s: HOUSES
Every Block Astir as New
Tenants Arouse
Curiosity.

Say, who's moved in next door,
Where they from? Any kidsl'
"What kind of ca- have they got:
''Have they borrowed anything YETI
what kind of furniture do they
have"
Heard 'em fussing yetT
These and a thousand other similar
questions are being asked among the
residents in nearly every block in San
Antonio. ,.
VISITORS COMING
The first of October finds a steady
stream of people from the northern
and eastern cities pouring into the
Alamo City to spend the winter.
Houses. which have stood vacant
during the summer months, are be-
ginning to show signs of life.
People are moving in, the lawns
are being moved and winter flowers
set out.
According to local real estate deal
ers a rent house boom, which occurs
at this period of each year, is on.
Although there is steadily increas-
ing demand, there will be homes for
everyone as new ones are going up
daily, they report.
An attractive feature about having
new neighbors, even thought they are
planning to leave again in the spring,
is that San Antonio with its semi
tropical climate enables them to keep
their temporary quarters looking well.
The grass remains green practically
all winter and flowers bloom here long
after they have been killed by frost
and ice in other cities.
BEAUTlFY LAWNS
This results in the visitors taking a
personal interest in their cottages,
identifying the yards and lawns, ac-
cording to real estate men.
In addition to the good demand for
rent houses, furnished homes and
apartments are finding an increasing
popularity.
Dealers report that prices in San
Antonio are comparatively cheap and
that comparisons will show it is much
cheaper to spend the winter here than
in numerous other places.
