4 WALKS WITH JAUNTY STEP| Miss Morrison's Fear Leaves Hor Now That | Testimony is at End, COURT'S INSTRUCTIONS FAVOR DEFENDANT Under the Condemnation of Coansel Olin Caatle Fleea from the Court Room Awny from the Crowd. ELDORADO, Kan, Dec. § eonfident, Jessie Morrison, today sat throuzh hours of pleading, the last stage but one o her trial for the murder of Mrs. Castlo With each hour since she left the stand yesterday, the prisoner had gained strength " and sald that de- the She and every movement she made today pleted the feclings she felt—joy over Dellef that she would soon be free pinned a rose on her dress before she left her cell, and talked brightly with the allor on the way to the court room. There she listened with rapt attention to the Iawyers as they argued earnestly for one #lds or the other, but the strained look, the Ped eyes and pale contemance ¥o noticeable during the weary hours of the testimony- taking were missing® Tho knowledge that she would soon know her fate seemed to ehange her whole belug; instead of an ex pected collapse, the approach of the end stimulated her to greater effort Noither the thundering demand of Prose- euting Attorney Brumback, for a first de- gree verdict, nor his flerce declaration that Jessle Morrigon, with murder in her heart bad planned and executed murder, because the man who she had loved married another, rved to move the prisoner or drive the expression trom her face. Judge Shinn's lostructions to the jury Fatbor favored the defendant than other- wise. He told the Jury that a verdict could be rendered on any count from first de- gree murder to fourth degreo manslaughtor. 1t the defendant belleved she was in dunger of being killed by Clara Wiley Castle, hav- ing first been attacked by her, she had a right to take steps to save her own life oven to the taking of life, Continuing, he +aid the jurymen must determine for them- selves whether the declarations presented by the prosecution as the dying words of Mrs. Castlo were really her deathbed state- ment, whether or not they were fnflunced by others, and whether the wounded woman knew clearly what she was doing. Castie Fleen Before Attack. V. P. Mooney of Eldorado, opening for the dofense, attacked Olin Castle for stimu- Iating jealousy between the two women, and took occasion to say that Mrs. Castle was better off in her grave than living with such & man as he had shown himeelf to be. Castle left the court room while Mooney pleading for the prisoner. Judge Shinn placed no limit upon the arguments and as four lawyers will argue for each side, 1t Is likely that the case will ot reach the jury before the first of next week. Instructions of Court. The instructions given by Judge Shinn make It possible for the prisoner to be con- victed either of first or second degree of murder, or the first, second, third or fourth degree of mansla The lowest possi- ble sentence she could recelve under these instructions would be from six months in Jail to two years in the penitentiary. The instructions began with the recita- tlon of the two counts of the indictment against Miss Morrison. Each count of the information charged murder in the first de- gree and included in each count are the fn- ferlor offenses or degrees of felonious hom- fclde, of murder in the second degree and manslaughter in its several degrees. The instructions continue: The defendant s _presumed to be tnno- cent until the contrary is proved, innocent of the offense charged and lnnocent of each and eve: entlal element of such offense. The burden is upon the state to establish the guilt of defendant by the ovidence, to gour ‘satistaction beyond a reasonable loubt, and If, after a consideration of all the evidence ‘In the case, you entertaln a reasonable doubt whether her guilt is sat- isfactorily shown, she must bo acquitted, and if you entertaln a reasonable doubt as to which or more degrees of the offense charged whe is gullty, she may be con- victed of the lowest degree only. I any one of the jury, after having con- stdered all the evidence in the case and having consulted with his fellow jurymen, #hould entertain a reasonable doubt of the defendant’s guilt, then th X the defendant ‘IIllly‘ WISk aad Judge Shinn defined justifiable self-de- fense and sald: “It Clara Wiley Castle made an unlawful assault and attack upon tho defendant and the defendant had reas- onable grounds to belleve that she was in danger of belng killed, or of recelving great bodily harm from sald Clara Wiley Castle, she had a right to take sueh steps as to her, under the circumstances, reasonably seemed necessary in order to save her own Mfe or to save herself from great bodily Barm, even to the taking of the life of sald Clara Wiley Castle.” Judge Shinn told the Jury that if they be- Meved beyond a reasonable doubt that the statement presented by the prosecution as the dying declaration of Clara Wiley Cas- tle was made while her mind was clear and &t @ time when she knew she would die from the wounds infilcted by Jesste Morri- son, they should consider it as a deathbed statement. 4 When the judge concluded he announced that he would place no limit on the argu- ments of the attorneys. So the four law yers for the state and the four for the de- tenso have the privilege of talking as long BLEEDING PILES, And All Other Forms of Thi Common and Annoying Disense Thousands of men and women suffer from some form of piles without either knowing the exact nature of the trouble, or knowing it, carelessly allow it to run without using the simple means of & radical cure. The failure of salves and olntments to cure piles has led many sufferers to believe the only permanent cure to be a surglcal operation, but surgical operations are dan- gerous to lite and, moreover, very expen- sive and by no means always or even often succes 1. The safest and surest way to cure any case of plles, whether itching, protruding or bieeding, {8 to use the Pyramid Pile Cure, composed of healing vegetabie ofls and ab- solutely free from mineral polsons and oplates. Mr. Wm. Handschu of Pittsburg, Pa. sttor suffering severely from bleeding piles, writes as follows: “I take pleasure In writing these few lines to let you know that I did not sleep for three months, excopt for a short time each night, because of a bad case of bloed g plles. 1 was down in bed and doctors a1d mo no good. A good brother told me of tho Pyramid Plle Cure and I bought from my druggist three fifty-cent boxes. They completely cured me and I will soom be able to0 go to my work agaln." The Pyramid Plle Cure is not only the safest and surest pile remedy, but It is by far the widest known and most popular, be- cause s0 many thousands have tried it and found it exactly as represented. Every physician and druggist in the coun- try knows the Pyramid Pile Cure and what 1t will do.

Mr. Mooney was interrupted by the noon recess. Olin Castle was not present during his argument In closing Mr. Mooney dorlared that Miss Morrison was not jealous; that she did not care for Olin Castle and there was no reason for her taking the life of Mrs Castle. Mr. Leyding, who followed for the atate, recited Jessio Morrison's account of the struggle leading from the stenograph ers’ notes. “That lesson was learned well,” he continued. He spoke at longth upon the testimony of Miss Morrison, and his argument was effective. Mr. Schumaker, for the defense, was the last speaker tonight. Ho opened in o tremulous voice. He asked the jury to mother lles burfed In the hills of West Virginia. “This little woman should have sympathy,” he sald. He sald Rev. Whar- ton went to the Castle home, not as a minister, but as a detective. He vigorously attacked the testimony of Olin Castle. The arguments will be closed on Monday by Judge Redden for the defense and Cap- tain Walters for the state. A Village B ved His Lit- tle Son's Life, Mr. H. H. Black, the well known village blacksmith at Grahamsville, Sullivan Co., N. Y. says “Our little son, five years old, has always been subject to croup, and 80 bad have the attacks been that we have feared many times that he would dle. We have had the doctor and used many medi- cines, but Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Is now our solo reltance. It seems to dis- solve the tough mucus and by glving fre- quent doses wheu the croupy symptoms ap- pear we have found that the dreaded croup 18 cured before it gets settled.” There 1s no danger in giving this remedy, for it con- tains no oplum or other Injurious drug and may be given as confidontly to a babe as to an adult.

The tank was filled with a copper in- set six feet deep in which the water was three feet deep. The tank proper stood nine feot high day night and the act was at that time per- formed successtully by Harry Farrell, | Btark’s partoer. A matinee was given this | afternoon and a large crowd assembled to witness the various foats. Shortly before o'clock Stark mounted his bieycle and pedalled it rapidly up the incline. Just be- fore reaching the end of the incline at the proper place he jumped from the seat and then jumped wward the tank, the bicycle In the meantime falliog into the net. Instead of falling directly into the center of the tank Stark struck the further edge of it headfirst and then fell into the tank ap- parently lifoless. Members of the regiment jumped tn and quickly had Stark out of the water, but death had already taken place. His head had been crushed in. HILL TALKS OF SUBSIDY BILL Rallroad Magnate Thinks Me: May Be Helpful, but It 1 Liable to Abuwe. CHICAGO, 8.—President J. J. Hill of the Great Northern rallroad was the Kuest of the Bankers' club at the monthly dinner today. He was expected to speak upon the subsidy bill, now pending in con- gress, but his remarks exten- peraneous and briefer than bad been ex- pected upon this subject. The club, previous to the address of Mr. Hill, passed a resolution requesting the president to reappoint Lyman J. Gage sec- retary of the treasury. Mr. HiUll spoke at considerable lensth, discussing matters of interstate and inter- national commerce, and in the first part of his remarks he merely alluded to the sub- sidy bill by saying that ho had made some inquiry concerning the bullding of boats in this country and upon the Clyde and found that he could have them constructed In this country at a much lower figure than in Scctland. This, he declared, did not look much as though a subsidy was needed for shipping. If such a measure were passed it would, in his opinion, assist most those who needed no assistance, and he mentioned the “‘ocean greyhound as those most likely to be benefited. He then branched out into a talk on the manner of controlling railroads by le tion and declared that the matter was one which none but experts understood and that railroads could no more be properly handled in this way than a broken limb could be set by statute. In the close of his speech Mr. Hill again came to the subsidy bill and sald concern- ing it: “It is an excellent thing, if it is not abused. 1 belleve that if we could pay a tonnage on the actual commodities of a cer- taln kind based on the distance carried there would be some justice in a subsidy. I analyized the first bill that was drawn care- fully and found that out of $9,000,000 about $7,600,000 went to what is known as the ‘American line,’ a good friend of mine, and nine gentlemen. They are always very kind to mo when I am croselng. At the same time why should we as a nation pay $9,000,000 a year for thirty years and have seven-elghths of it go to ten or twelve ships? I am glad to say that when attention was called to this the bill was amended and now it Is in much better shape. The $9,000,000 is to be distributed pro rata among all the ships that sall under the American flag and they havo set apart 80 por cent of the appropria- tion for the Pacific ocean. Nb doubt some of my friends thought they were serving me and in a money sense, perhaps, they were, but 1 would much rather see them take the duty off the plates that are to go into the ships when they are built. If cangress will ap- propriate $180,000,000 for a class of shipe that will reduce the cost of carrylng our commerce we will have & right to feel that they have done well, but we do not think that they should give the bulk of it to twenty or twenty-one ships that are only compelled to run twenty-one knots once to the satisfaction of the government officer de- talled for that purpose.’” Dy Passes Good for Another Year.
