NOVEMBER 87, 1911. t' ii il f 7 V f f i : Mon OF SIAIN 1M MIS STATE PKCUIE Patterson's Aged Parent One of Most Determined Prose cutors of Wife Who Slew Son; Prisoner Pale, Worn. & (Unlt.d Pre.. IswiS Wlr Denver, Nov. 27. In Mrs. Gertrude Gibson Patterson's trial on the charge of murdering hrr husband, one of the most determined prosecutors Is her mother-tn-law. The aged woman, re lentless and grim, sits back of the State prosecutor's chnlr, .assisting: and advising him. And her appearance and attitude have had a harrowing effect upon the defendant. Mrs. Patterson Is pale and worn to day. The strain she underwent Sattir day and Sunday Is obvious. There Is marked contract between her, on trial for her life, and the elder woman, who la making every effort to avenge her son s death. Prosecutor on Stand. District Attorney Elliott, who dls qualified himself in the present prose cution, testified that he was the de fendant's personal attorney; that It was he who drew up the prisoner's papers In preparation for her divorce suit gainst the victim of the tragedy. El liott declared Mrs. Patterson had shown him bruises which she said she bore the result of her husband's abuse. Several witnesses called to the stand testified that they had seen Patterson knock his wife down during a street Quarrel. Saw Patterson Buy Revolver. Robert Farnham of Chicago, a broth r-ln-law of the defendant, testified that he saw Patterson buy a revolver In 1J09. Farnham admitted that before he came to Denver he had discussed the testimony he was to give with Detective Hopper, who is employed by Emil Strouse. Just before the noon recess Attorney Hilton played his trump card when he produced three letters written by Pat terson. They admitted charges of per versions and cruelties he inflicted upon his wife. Woman Almost Hysterical. Gertrude Patterson was in a state of complete physical collapse all day yes terday and Saturday night, and It was necessary to call physicians to attend her. .. Prosecutor Benson's grilling riddled her story as to why she had shot Pat terson, during the arraignment Satur day and she returned to her cell In a frensy . of terror, clinging hysterically to Matron Normlle, and crying "Please don i leave me. Don't let them hang me Don't let them hang me!" Then she began a mad denunciation gainst Emll Strouse, the Chicago mer chant to whom she claims her murdered husband sold her for $1500. She partly blames him for her present trouble and declares he should be at her side now to help her. "Strouse should be here with me In stead of letting me face this trouble alone," she sobbed. "When he took me to Europe I was so young I didn't un derstand. I didn't know much about men. If I had I wouldn't be in this trouble. I had no Idea that I would oe compelled to enducf this trial. "When Benson was questioning me my brain became so muddled toward the last that I didn't know what I was doing. I don't remember what I said. I didn't know then what I was saying. Mrs. Patterson also declared that her hair was turning- gray. nr roe mfjen white show spots are citizens bombard LAND GRANT SUIT TO WEST SHARPLY, SWEPT BY BLAZE NEW PISGAH HOME WESe TWINE I Special Aide to Attorney Gen eral Back From Washing ton in 0. & C.

Dallas, Or., Nov. 27. In an swer to an application of this city to Andrew Carnegie for a J6000 donation for a public -library buildlny ln Dallas, Mr. Car negie suggested that th amount was too small for th growing needs of a town the slse of Dal las and suggested 17600 as a bet ter amount. At th last meet ing of the city council It waa decided to accept the recommen dation and Increase the amount to, $10,000, and the mayor and the city auditor yere Instructed to make the formal application for that amount. The move for a Carnegie library in the city was started and carried out by Mrs. George Qerllnger, R. E. Wll- . liams and ethers who have helped to make the present pub lic library a success.

The oounctl la about to pass a vagrancy ordinance which will enable the authorities to reach all who are without means of support and who appear to be engaged ln occupations that do not come strictly within the scope of the law. The ordi nance provides that any one convicted of vagrancy Is to be placed at hard labor on the streets and la to wear an Oregon boot. Klamath Falls, like other arowlna- towns, has been infested with a class that has long been a source of annoy ance to the municipal authorities. When action was taken a few weeks ago to rid the city of the restricted district there were many who thought the au thorities were merely making a bluff to keep from being brought before the grand Jury which convenes the first week ln December. Just before the or der was issued to the inmates of th district to leave, the officers caught' sev eral iooai young men who have been living ln the district most of the time and yet maintaining enough of a reputa tion to exercise the privileges accorded reputable citizens.
