She is a | brunette, is 21 years of age and weighed at the time of the allezed attack by Mr. Clark, she testified, only ninety-eight { pounds. | “1 do not want my plcture taken " she |declared. “I do not want it in the mews- | papers, and 1T do not like to have pcople stare at me." Frequent attempts of photographers to sccure a likeness which plainly shows her features have falled. She keeps a nand- kerchief before her face in walking to and from the court house and in the court room is shielded by those who' are associated with her. Explains Her Testimony. Mre.

Mr. Gunther testified that he accom- | panied Mrs. Hicks to Mr. Clark's home |in Council Bluffe on Sunday, and that |she showed him the sleeping porch on the second floor, where the kiss is al- |leged to have taken place while the de- fendant was attempting to embrace her The defense by this testimony sought |to impeach Mrs. Hicks' testimony con- |cerning Mr. Clark's alleged attack on her on Monday. It is understood that the defense will attempt to refute many of her statements concerning the alleged attack on her at the time the kiss is asserted to have been imparted to her by Mr. Clark. | © n American Beauty and Rose Bush sale takes place Killarney Rose Bush Sale Our American Beauty and Killarney next =t — 0 ————————— 1 ——— § — (] Our Dry Air Cold Storage for furs, winter apparel, rugs, etc, keeps them perfectly and in~ sures them against loss by BrandeisStores Saturday.
