more like this, I Ween: An auto in a

THE democratic party is still ort the
hunt for a "willin' Barkis" to lead their
oft vanquished banner to oblivion dur
ing the next campaign. Judge Parker
has been tried and found wanting; Mr.
Bryan Is too busy making money to
make the race again; Grover finds fish

gies, notably Willie Randolph Hearst,
the boy wonder of yellow journalism.
General Miles has not yet been heard
from officially on the subject

money taken In the course of a fight
was not stolen, and could be recovered
only In the manner in which it was
taken. It is not known whether the
victorious logger has proceeded to as-

of the court, but this is doubtful as the

in a position to tell whether the Injury
was of recent occurrence or not nt the
time, as the iwtlent did not remain in
the city long enough to give him op
portunity to ascertain.
Sheriff Linville testified, but his tes
timony had little or no bearing on the
case. Depositions were Introduced In
evidence- by the defense, from Smith's
wife saying she was suffering from can
cer and unable to attend, and In which
she attacked the character of E. L.
Perkins, one of the witnesses for the
State. The other depositions were from
residents of Contra Costa county testi
fying to the good reputation always
borne by by the defendant to their
knowledge. Information and belief.
Delbert Smith also took the stand In
defense of his father, and the jury was
Uken in a body to inspect the place on
Duane( street where the alleged acci
dent occured and Lane sustained the
injury.
The court room was crowded all day.
and the trial was freely discussed on
the streets last night.
