Kemp, marshal of Antelope, took the stand next, fand testified tbat be saw Brogan and Forreeter near Mc Beth't saloon, and Brogan was talking loud and that Forrestei was very quiet and did not do anything.

Also, that Forrester said he was going south and on bia way to get out of tbe country. Tbe attorneys engaged in numerous dsccossions during the time Cowne was on the stand. 'The state claimed that Forrester was fleeing and trying to get out of the reach of the law and away from justice, while the defense contend ed that Forrester's statements to Cowne as to the reason for fleeing were part of the rngertae. Trie state then claimed that the declarations concerning his flight were self convicting declarations. Cowne al so testified that Forrester stayed at bia place about a day, leaving about sun op the day after bis arrival. Cbas. Huffman was an important wit nest as regards tbe knife. He testified that be was hired by Forrester to herd sheep for Brogan in the vicinity of Sum mit Prairie, and began working on the 7th of September last, and continued for three months. At this time Cooper and Forrester were both packing for the dif ferent sheep camps of Brogan's. Wit ness stated that he got the knife from a ! man named Mulky in Mitchell whom be loaned one dollar and took the knife as security. Forther, that it was a com mon butcher knife with a blade about six inches or over, while the whole knife was ten inches. The knife was used around camp to cut meat with, and when tt e location waa to be changed Huffman told Forrester to take care cl the knife for him and wheu he went to Mitchell to give it to Mulky, providing he paid bim the dollar due on it.

Said he was in Silvertooth's saloon when Brogan was killed, and had just came from Dial's saloon with Chevis and saw Forrester in there. Asked several to have a drink with him, among them Bro gan, who said, "You I won't drink with you." WitneeB said to Bro gan, "There is no use abusing me. - I never did you any barm." Gumm then started toward the door. Forrester wr.s down by tbe front door. He (Aubin) grabbed Gamm who jerked away from bim and Aubin fell to the floor against a chnir. He caught hold of the chair and tried to raise himBelf when Farquer McRae pushed him over the chair. He next saw Biogan on the bed. Also that someone went out tbe front door but did not know who it was. Witness stated he did not remember of saving "This is bell," but did recall having asked for some sheep-herders lemonade.

Brogan and Gumm refused to drink, but do not remember what was said, bat Brogan made some remark." He looked around and saw Forrester down and Brogan was coming toward the door near where Forreeter was. Witness caught bim and said "Mr. Brogan, you don't want to have any troable." He jerked away from bim and the next be knew he (Brogan) was on tbe bed. Witness teard somebody say he was dead. E. J. Glisan was then put upon tbe stand, and testified that after tbe trouble with Gumm and Forrester near the blacksmith shop he and Fortester sat on the running gear of a Wagon and had a talk, after which they went to Dial's sa loon, where witness leit Forrester. He remembered seeing Slim in Dial's, but was not positive as to whether the Spaniard was there or not. He also testified as to the bloodstains in Silver tooth's saloon, and in what part of the building they were. Chas. Clarno was then Cilled, and tes tified that he had been working on Sil vertooth's building and ciaicg into the saloon saw Slim and Brogan. Mini asked Broiran to have a drink, and be said "I won't drink with you, - ." Slim then said, "Dou't abuse a poor sheep herder."- Then some one spoke up and said ' Go for it !" Gumm went for Forrester and knocked him down. Witness then looked away, and when he turned around he saw For rester havea knife in his hand. Sil "'toolb the- out from behind tbbr and Clarno said, "Look out, Jim. he has got a knife." Silvertooth then said, "For God sake put that up." Brogan then grabbed a chair and start ed toward the front door, when witness tcok it away from him. He got another, rushed forward and struck For rester on the head with it. Forrester bad bis bands np as if to ward off the blow. After being struck Forrester got up and shoved Brogan back and then struck him with tbe kniie. Brogan then pot his hand to his side, slipped down and fell on tbe bed. Witness did not notice which way Forrester went out. In the difficulty between Brogan and Forrester, Clarno stated that Brogan struck the first blow, in fact, hit him twice.

On cross examination the witness stated tbat when he went into Silver tooth's be met Brogan and asked him to have a drink, and he did. He did not remember whether anyone else drank with him. Clarno then stepped back and Brogan walked to the end of bar, when Slim asked all to have a drink. Brogan said "I won't drink with you ." The witness did not hear Slim make tho remark "This is hell." "I refused to take a drink but do not know whether Gumm did or not. Somebody said '3o to it,' but I do not know who it was. Did not hear anyone make the -remark, 'Hurrah for Slim !" When they said 'Go for it' Gumm ran down and struck Forrester, and tbe next time I saw Forreeter he had gotten up and had a knife in his hand. Did not see Brogan just then, but said to Silvertooth "Look out Jim, he has got a knife.' Silvertooth cried out 'For God's sake put it up,' and started out from behind the bar, and in the row was bit or cut in some way." Witness said he grabbed chair from Bro gan, but be got another one and struck Forrester, who was in a squatting position. "Some one else must have knocked Forreeter down a second time, but not Brogan." Witness did not know whether Brogan saw the knife or not. When Brogan waa strik ing bim with tbe chair he appeared to be warding off tbe blows with his bands. Clarno waa asked if be had made the statement to Mrs Kemp, Mrs. Gamble and Mrs. Glisan tbat he saw Forrester come into the saloon with the knife in bis hand and his hand behind bim. Witness denied the fact. The next witness was Geo. Fagg, who testified he was at Dial's saloon when someone said, "They are fighting at Sil vertooth's."

After some one else went Into the taloon witness followed. On cross examination witness stated he was sure it was Forrester who came oat of the sa loon, and that he had no knife or weapon in bis hands.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH A Pleasant, Simple: but Safe and Ef fecual Cure for It. Catarrh of tbe stomach ha long been considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat ing sensation after eat in, accompanied sometimes with sour and watery rising, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing; headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness and a general played out languid feeling. There is often a foal taste In the mouth coated tongue and if the interior of the stomach could he seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condition. Tiie cure of this common and obsti nate trouble is fonnd in a treatment which causes the food to be readil v. thor oughly digested before it can to ferment and irritate the delicate mucus surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do, and when normal digestion is secured the-catarrhal condition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet.composed of Diatase.Asep- tic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and truit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drugstores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a patent medicine can be nsed with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will certainly follow their regular use af ter meals, Mr. N. .1. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn Street, Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting rom a neglected cold in the head, wbereby the lining membranes of the nose become inflamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward luto the throat reaches the stomach, thus nro- ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of the stomach without care, but today I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Smart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find an- propriate words to express my good fil ing. I have fonnd flesh, appetite and tonnd rest from their use." Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is tbe safest preparation as well as the simplest and most convenient remedv for an r.,rm i indigestion, catarrh of the stomach, billionsness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after meals.
