.Passing from this visit, Mrs. Way
mire said the mayor had asked her to
call again on Thursday night. She said
aha went as requested and then went
into the-detail of the visit as alleged by
her. She said she had been in a hurry,
but that the mayor had urged her to
atay, as ha had plenty of tlma to talk
to ner. ,
She had insisted that she must go nnd
had arisen from where she was sitting.
The mayor then stepped in front of her
and took hold of her arm. The witness
then told of her struggle, or her threat
ening to scream and at last of her out
cries ana Kaaaings preaning in tna
glass' door of the office.
One little slip waa made by the wit
ness In her relation of the struggle
she had with the mayor. Whether or
not It will play an Important part in
the trial remains yet to be seen. In
describing the struggle she said aha had
fought with the mayor. Then In telling
of tha Interruption she said: "Than the
f;ias was broken and several p6uv
ooked In and I stopped, picked up
my comb which had fallen to the floor
and after fixing my hair put on my
hat and went down the elevator and
to my room." What she meant by say
ing she stopped will perhaps come In
for a good deal of comment during
tho argument of the cane.
In general Mrs. Waymire contradict
ed tha mayor in every essential detail
of the atory.
Continuing under tha guidance of her
attorney, Mrs. Waymire told f hvlng
met Hadding soon after her arrival in
Portland. She became a very good
friend of his and he proposed marri
age which proposal she could not ac
cept owing to the fact that aha waa
not divorced from her husband. Rad-
illnir went to Seattle, tho witness aald.
and then she became good friends with
C. A. Hull. Ho also proposed and was
inint.il conditionally. the witness
cuM, the condition feeing that her hus
band should gat a divorce.
Letters were Introduced that had been
written bv Itaddln while ha waa in
Seattle and in which Kaddlng referred
to her aa "dearest angel girl." He
said ha waa crasy about her. but ad'
mltted that Bell was a gentleman,
though he pleaded with Mrs. Waymire
to make Hell keep away. Ha also wrote
her telling her ha would "paint tha
town if she did not write." and cioaea
many of hla epistles with tha touching
admonition of '.'Kiss me, honey."
It was brought out on cross-examina
tion that tha husband had secured nia
divorce soma tlma ago. though Mrs.
Waymire denied that aha had aver oeen
served with notice of the ault or that
she knew of the suit having been com
menced. She said that aha nad made no
further effort to secure the child and
that neither she nor Bell had made an
effort to find out what her husband
was doing in order that they might get
married aa soon as the decree had been
given.

Just before noon the witness and At
torney Malarkey locked horns In a
pretty verbal fencing bout. Mrs. Way
mire had admitted that she had klgned
an agreement with her husband regard
inff the custodv of the child and Ma
larkey asked for the document, which
she said she had in her possession. Tha
witness said she could bring It tomor

afternoon.
Malarkey asked where aha lived and

stated to the court that she was living
with people who for political and busi
ness reasons did not want it known that
they were harboring her. The witness
afterward said she lived on the corner
of Twenty-third and Bherman streets on
tne east side.
Just before noon Thomas Q. Oreena
was put on the stand for a few minutes
by the defense to Identify tha complaint
Issued for the preliminary hearing in
tha municipal court. Mr. Greene iden
tltled the complaint which had been
signed bv him and then told of the

between the different parts of tha body.
This is Just what occurs in dyspepsia.
War is declared between the stomach
and the rest of the members of the body

assimilate food, heaviness, disinclina
tion to work, and in a word, all the at
tendant eviis or imperrect -digestion.
What you need is an ally.-. An ally Who
will not only help but will absolutely
insure you the victory. In other words,
