Browning ScOwls
In front of Peaches" sat the
man whose career has kept in the
newspapers for years, Edward West
Browning. He sat erect, dressed in
grey, with brilliant necktie-they
say he has $50 ties in his wardrobe
a scowl occasionally passing over
his face. His skin is dull except for
a shiny chin. Sometimes he seems
nervous and sometimes not. But he
is the man who gave his bride a
woolly dog that sings, a French
doll and offered to buy her Japan
ese princess when she wanted a
baby.
He also is the man who made
funny noises" perhaps even saying
"woof, woof," as he cavorted in
wierd pajamas on the bedroom floor.
He is the man whose wife says had
a mania for pictures of nude wom-
en-; who wanted her to eat breakfast
with him unslad, and who she
charges tried oforce upon her un.
speakable indignities.
But despite al 1.-The honlking. geese

Wonderland" the good old fairy
tales and Rabelais, that the fairy
tales and Alice gather none of the
slime of Rabelafs.

Peaches Love Dream Turned Into
a Nightmare"
A sheaf of letters, many in
Peaches handwriting, numerous
newspapers and other printed and
typewriter papers, were offered in
evidence, and some identified.
In one instance Mrs. Browning
objected that dates on two letters
were incorrect. That closed the
cross eXamination.
81 have a duty to perform as an
officer Of the court" announced
Henry Epstein, Mrs. Browning's at
torney. II wish to say that after
court adjourned yesterday Mrs.
Browning said to me in the presence
Of her mother that the diary intro
duced in court yesterday was not
the diary which she had kept up to
the time of her marriage"
Epstein then offered to permit re-
sumption of cross examination on
the point.
Why did you revise the diary?"
she was asked.
II was advised to by Mr.. Joseph
Morris when he realized that the
diary might become public property
at the trial" she answered. Morris
was the youth who introduced her
to Browning.
Did this diary contain names of
men you had made love to and who
had made love to your"
Yes"
Did the parts omitted in re-writ-
ing have reference to these men?'
Yes, they did"
Yesterday when your first diary
was introduced in court, did you see
Mr.. Dale lone of Browring's attor-
neys) examine it?"
Yes"
did you see he was taking the
number Of it so he could see when it
was purchased?"
Il certainly did not" she an
swered. as her voice seemed about
to break.
Deleted Diary
Mrs. Browning then said that she
had torn pages out of the original
diary, which was then offered in evil
dence.
Why did you do that?" she was
asked.
We'll. when I became a married
lady 1 decided not to keep diary
any more. and I tore out the blank
pages, she answered.
You were sure they were blank
pages?"
Yes, positively"
Mack offered both diaries to be
marked for Identification, but coun-
sci for Mrs. Browning objected.
II want to show, said Mack,
that the defendant was a woman OF
the world at the time of her mar
riage and was not innocent of the
marriage act. I believe that her
real diary shows here we'll acquaint-
ed with sexual matters and'she could
not possibly have been as shocked as
she testified on the witness stand"
Justice Seeger ruled out both
diaries temporarily.
Then Mrs. Browning left the wit
ness stand she had occupied for four
hours and forty minutes. She
breathed deeply with relief as she
walked to her seat by her counsel.
Browning. who had smiled when the
subject of the diaries was intro
duced, watched his wife intently, but
she did not return his gaze.
The next witness was Mrs. Cath
crime Mayer, a friend Of Mrs. Hee-
nan, who spent several evenings as
the guest of the millionaire realty
dealer and Peaches" after their
marriage.
