For two decades it has been the connecting link of comfort, convenience and pleasure between New York, i Newark, Philadelphia and Buffalo, Rochester, Ithaca and the other thriving cities along its pathway. For twenty years it has exemplified the highest ideal of satisfactory service. . Satisfactory servico—twenty years of it! For a fifth | of a century the Black Diamond has glided along the ' banks of beautiful rivers, gone spinning up the smooth grades of picturesque mountains, speeding among beauti- ful hills and by placid lakes, It has acquainted over a million passengers with a wonderful country—‘The Switzerland of America.” The splendid train has entered on another cycle of its famous daylight ran—over the matchless Lehigh roadbed, safely guarded by automatic block signals-—using the latest word in steel equipment.

TAKES STAND AND TELLS HOW HE KILLED HER FATHER | (Continued from First Page.) stand. When Miss Hardwicke, a girl still in her teens, was on the stand, he was cynically amused. Bhe said she heard her uncle, Dr. Cornell, and, | her cousin, Mr. Swinton, talking after | Waite apartment, where. John 5. Peck lay dead. As @ result of what ‘they sald, and without consulting anybody, sho went to New York Mon- day and sent the “K. Adama’ warn- ing telegram to Perey Peck from the Grand Central Station, Waite Inughed openly, as the wit- ness, whose impulse had made a mes: of his whole plot and put bim in pert of execution as a murderer, hurried hack to her seat between Mr. and Mrs. Percy Peck. | MRS. WAITE TELLS OF FATHER'S | FATAL ILLNESS, But the smile hardened into a | frown as the slim black figure of | the woman who is suing him for a divorce slipped into the witness chair. His chin sank Into the palm of his | hand and he kept his eyes on the |table, Mrs, Walte'’s voice broke now and then and sho had a fight to con- |trol herself, She referred to Waite | indifferently as “Dr, Waite,” “the doc. tor” or “Waite.” He never once raised his eyes, | Mrs. Waite, continuing her narra- |tlve to the Saturday before her j father's death, said Mr. Peck exe- jcuted on Saturday a codicil to his | will, leaving to Warren W. Waite, | Waite's father, $2,000, Late that eve- ning, she sald, her father became very Il. Q. Did you observe the actions of Waite closely during those hours? ALN I only know what my maid | told——- (Objection by Mr. Deuel.) Q. Did you give your father any nourishment? A. I made him an egg- | nog. Q. Did you give tt to him? A. He drank a part of !t. I put the re- mainder in the icebox. Later, I found it gone from the icebox. I asked him if he wanted another egg-nog. He Said no, Finishing the remainder of the firat, he eaid, had made him sick, “The woman who understood him,” Mrs, Margaret Horton, sat among a group of relations of John EB, Peck ond his wife. Mrs. Horton has been quoted as saying she had learned to hate Waite, with hls talk of a mysterious “Man | from Egypt,” who inspired his crimes, and hts smooth assurances which led jer, “a dove among crows,” to ahare | @ studio at the Plaga with him under | an assumed name. But when Waite walked into the courtroom to-day Mrs, Horton, her bosom heaving, her eyes shining with tears, her full, red lips parted, leaned toward him, If | Waite knew she was there he didn't show it. And the “woman who under. stood him” slumped back fn her chair and dabbed at her black-lashed eyes with a tiny handkerchief. WOMEN GET ADMITTANCE TO COURT BY CARDS. The women who used their wiles in vain on the first two days of the trial had learned the secret of getting in to-day. They came bearing cards of men who sit in the seats of the mighty, high officials of the city and the courts, and the court officers couldn't turn them back. So nearly half the hundred or more spectators were women; most of them dressed and acted as though they were more familiar with the tennis courts, the motor highways and smart reatau- rants than with the court room. They were half out of their seats and braced on their tiny slippered toes —_—_———_—_—_——— “Well, | Should Say ‘Gets-It DOES Work” “Look a’ There, It You Don’t Think It’s Just Wonderful for Corn: “Bless my stars, look at tt!

Percy Peck, son of John E, Peck, youthful, square-jawed, soft-voiced, took the stand just before noon. He said he was in the wholesale drug business and was familiar as execu- tor with the estate of John E. Peck. Mr, Brothers insisted the size of the | Peck estate was essential to the case and won his point. Q. When did you first meet Arthur Warren Waite? A. I first met the de- fendant in 1913. Q. What, if any, conversation did you have with Waite just before your father left for New York, Feb. 10? A. He said my father was getting on in years and was suffering from the effect of mother’s deatn, and it need not surprise me if his life were of very short duration. Q. Did you reply? A. I saaid father was getting old, but I thought his h remarkably good and he might live for aome time. Young Peck told of recelving the warning telegram Just before the ar- rival in Grand Rapids of the Waites | with Mr, Peck's body, His conversa- tions with Waite were brief and for- mal then, Waite came to him later that day, Peck said, and asked about John B Peck’s will, “He wanted know,” sald the witness, “if there Was not some way in which my sister might not have the income from her share of my father’s properties before the wiil was probated. J told him it could not be done.” “Tne estate of which my father was | actually possessed,” said Mr. Peck “at the time of his death, was about haif a million dollars, He also had an equity of about the same amount in his brother's estate.” Mr. Deuel asked questions devel- 4s showing the cordial een Waite and the ar before the marriage lara Peck, Mr. Peck sald, “was of Waite and “My mother,” especially friendly to the defendant. My father was not so enthusiastic.” Q. Did your father express his di approval? A. He did, in private con- versation with me, Q. Did he express that disapproval to the defendant? A, Not to my knowledge. Q. Do you think he might have done so? A. No. Father would not say anything to any one which would hurt that person's feelings. Q. Do you know of any difference petween your father and the de- fendant? A. Y Once. Father was to have given him $300 a month for living expenses. The first check was for $200. The defendant return- ed it to my mother, saying hoe nted my father to know no help needed for Clara's support Father sent him another check for $300, but I know he was exasperated Cross examination by Mr. Deuel brought from Mr. Peck the statement that Waite was reluctant to give up the check for the casket containing his father's body when it arrived in Grand Rapids Mr Brothers read to the jury the letcer returning the $200, Waite said he could earn about $6,000 a year, sub- ject to $2,000 deduction for expenses. The lotter was full of affection and brave protestations of financial in dependence. -_ OSBORNE MAKES GOOD.
