The description or tne aesperaao
lying dead at Banta Ana and of Joe
Matlock were found to coincide this
morning, except for a peouliar scar close
to the groin. This scar at first was
taken for an appendicitis wound by
physicians, but more careful examina
tion showed it to be from a bullet
wound. That Matlock received a "bullet
wound is declared by Dr. L. L. Whltson
of Banta Ana, who said today the young
Oregonlan had been shot, near the groin
In Gfobe, Ariz., a year or two ago, since
his departure from his Oregon haunts.
It was Whltson who first gave the Mat

Anna Kurtzmann, Federal Wit
. ness in Whiteslave, Case,
Unconscious for 15 Minutes
Anna Kurtimann, principal witness
for the government in the white slave
case against Harry Bchloss in the
United States district court, fainted in
the witness chair again, this morning
and was unconscious for 18 minutes.
The woman had been subjected to, a
rierce grilling at the hands of Assistant
District Attorney Walter II. Evans and
Attorney Vanderveer of Seattle for, the
defendant almost the entire tnornlhg
and she had apparently . not reoovered
rrom a similar fainting spell In the -witness
chair at the beginning of her tes
timony yesterday afternoon.
Starting the case Yesterday morning,
the KurUmann woman was summoned
t, the witness stand, but not permitted
to testify, as the attorney for the de
fendant maintained, by the old com
mon law rule, that a wife should not be
forced to testify against her husband.
But Judgo Wolverton ruled that her
evidence was admlssable, and the worn-
an, who had apparently been prepared
ror an opposite decision, was greatly
taken back when told to answer the
questions of the prosecuting attorney.
vvnen Mr. Evans began examining her
on points that bore directly on the Im
plication of, Bchloss, she refused to an
swer, saying that she was a sick woman
and had forgotten everything. Suspect
ing that she had been tampered with,
Mr. Evans asked the permission of the
court to lead In the questioning, and
when he began to ask her about the
things she had told 'before the grand
Jury about her personal life in Chicago,
she broke down and a minute later col
lapsed. This morning she Insisted on knowing
nothing about the grand Jury examina
tion, and was almost constantly in a
state of hysteria. Half an hour before
noon, when Attorney Vanderveer was
questioning her, she again became un
conscious. There Is much talk of witness tam
pering in the court room, and the con
clusion of this trial may bring forth
an Interesting expression from the
bench, and posBlbly an Investigation of
the matter from the office of the United

If you are suffering from rupture come and see him. - Let him explain and
show you the new Anatomical Truss. This truss is made of the only hy
eenic material.ever used for this purpose. It has no springs, behs, harness
or leg straps and therefore does not squeeze, pinch or bind the wearer.
The new Anatomical Truss comes with 78 different styles of holding pad3
and each truss is assembled to meet the individual requirements of the user.
The new Anatomical Truss is guaranteed to avoid all pressure on the
pubic bone and spine, and will retain even the severest hernia with more
comfort than any spring or elastic truss. It brings pressure only where the
true hernial opening is and not where the lump shows. This truss will
close the opening perfectly in every case that is curable by mechanical means,
thus avoiding the necessity of a surgical operation. v t i v k " v
