It followed the lines of the hat, being gathered into a knot at the base on each side, where a soft loop and end about seven inches long dropped languldly over the hair.

Winkler had risen to hear sentence pronounced whe over to Winkle McDowell walked ‘3 counsel and whis- ered that he was the guilty one, Mr. itehie promptly asked that the pronouncing of sentence be delayed until he could make application for a new trial for Winkler, The appil- tion was granted, ‘To-day's climax indcates strongly that Winkler was cognizant through- out his trial that the tires had been stolen by McDowell.
