The foreign coins, he sald, were very valuable, and would bring a good price from any col- ector. Jones admits that he took this security, but not unti! he had questioned *“Chariie” closely regarding the original owner of the trinkets. All his answers being seem- gly stralghtforward, Jones put the things in his pocket, handed over the money to “Charlie” and started for his home in Oa Wi £ and crossing the bay, Jones says, he e two men whom he heard dis- cussing the murder of Dutil. They spoke of the remarkable mystery surrounding the case. nd wondered why it was that the detectives had not been able to make more progress with the case. He heard them go into the detalls—even listened to a description of the very articles which were missing from the dead man's pock- ets. These remarks greatly puzzied and worrled the old man, for the description of the missing jewelry tallled most un- i ) 1 1 LT 200 g 148 (e TRICHINA muscle—this time In the leg-prepared the slides as before, and here you may see for yourself how the Japanese, Amanoma, Is riddled with the boring parasites.

Jones paced the lower deck of the boat, turning over in his mind the many strange things that had come into his life since he started from home that eventful morn- ing, and each time, as he covered the length of the deck, he was obliged to pass the little screen door behind which they see such nice things to drink. And what is more natural. when a man s worried than to get on the other side of that door? Well, Jones did, and he got there more frequently than was really good for him: #0 that by the time he had reached the Oakland side his wit was out and the drink was in. Of course he proceeded to do exactly what he should have avoided, namely, develop the more than inciplent jag he had started on the boat. This was a fatal mistake on the part of Jones, for the more he thought over the strange fatality that had given him possession of the now thoroughly trouble- some ‘‘collateral,” the more he drank, and, consequently, the more indiscreet he became. The story of the prosecution tells the reader the result of his indiscre- tion. Mr. Hale, who has since served the BState as Warden of San Quentin prison, was at that time Sheriff of Alameda County. This gentleman took a great in- terest in the case and questioned Jones repeatedly about the mythical *‘Charlie mortem examination shows the trouble “By discovering the case promptly emetics and purgatives can be used to rid the system of the terribie parasites that belch” forth like little volcanoes their myriads of destructive progeny.” When pork Is but slightly infected there are but few of the specimens, and their effect on the human system shows itsclf more slowl In the case of the patient, Joy, he was taken with symptoms all at AMANOMA (THEJAPANESED ¢ Worm That Meanr , & violent pain as acute as pol e causes as | works are that the larvae form ir the stomach and n.

But the man proved of no use as a witness for either side, for he stubbornuly insisted that he knew nothing about Jones, or the alleged transaction. Although the man could not give anything ltke a satisfac- tory account of his movements on that particular day, still, the defense found It impossible to prove anything against him. Mr. Hale tried one experiment which convineed him that there was some foun- dation in the statement of Jones. He borrowed “Charlle’s” clothes and put them on one of his trusties and then paraded the trusty, accompanied by sev- eral others, past the cell where Jones was confined. Jones at onee recognized the clethes, and called to the man, although his face was kept purposely turned away from the prisoner. ‘“Charlfe!” he ex- claimed, “you are the very man I want to see.” He was told that he was mis- taken, that the man he had called to was not “Charlie,” but one of the sen In the jail. Still Jones insisted that it was “Charlie,”” and that he knew and recog- nized every rag worn by the person who had just passed his cell. On this point, the old man's bellef remains unshaken to this day. All this made the Sheriff more positive of the old man’s innocence. He summed up the case in thig wa How was it possible for a man of Jones' age; a man of slight physique—for he never could have weighed more chan 130 pounds —to have struggled for half an hour with a man of haif his age and finally succeed in killing his victim? All this does seem unreasonable, and there were still other points that were never satisfactorlly explained. If, for in- stance, Jones did the deed, why did Dutil address him in ths French language, and more particularly, use the endearing ex- pression (thou) which all agreed would only be used between old friends? It was certainly proved that Jones had ne con- ception of the French language, and that he had never been a customer of Dutil's, Then how could he have known there wus anything worth stealing about the place, especially that murder was necessary be. fore the property could be secured? These are all hard questions to answer, and leave a very fair margin for reasonable doubt, which the law says must always be given to the prisoner. One man, In his desire to help Jones out of his trouble, made the journey all the way from his Eastern home, that he might testify to Jones' good character, Another man left a hospital bed In Los Angeles to tell the court what Jones had done for him. He sald that while visit- ing Southern California he was taken ili and sent to the hospital out m course He was with- ns and, being bed-ridden, was of unable to earn money. Jones heard of his case, drew some money and hurried to the sick man He pald the Invaii for him a much-needed overcoat and gave him suf- ficlent m S to send for his wife, who was at that time a resident of Oakland. All this evidence was produced to prove that Jones was not in any way given to avariciousness, and that he was well pro- vided with money at the time he was accused of murdering a fellow creature for a paitry sum The old man has little to say about him- self. He says he was born in New York State, on the banks of the Hudson, in the year of our 1 1510. Poor oid man! Never again will esh his gaze w a view of the beautiful Highlands, for is doomed to finish his days stretch upon a prison cot in a cell where glorious sunshine never by any c finds its way, and there must he lie till the great Judge In his court above sees fit in his infinite mercy to call for a soul plea of guilty or innocent. And whal- ever vour soul's answer may be, long suffering George Jones, rest assured you will never again listen to that monoto- nous order, “Let the case be continuec till the next term of court.” W.
