K .9 ft I r- Tribute to the Phonograph Even John Philip Sousa, the great bandmaster, who has no use for Phonographs, has been forced to recognize the Phonograph as a for midable competitor. The two-step king says that people will no longer go to concerts if they can have music in their own homes so easily and so cheaply as they can with the Phonograph. This is an unwilling tribute, but it is nevertheless a tribute. The man who has a Phonograph has a concert in his own house. Even a king could not have more. At our store you can hear them any time.

Protest from Defense. Hawley spoke for nearly an hour and a halt to a court room crowded, but silent, to a jury which, sitting 1 bolt upright, watched for every word, , to a prisoner who, with his family around him, was several times moved to deep emotion as the prosecutor pro nounced the charges. Counsel for tho defense opened ilro before the state ment had proceeded ten minutes, and the repetitious of objections from them led to threo or four sharp ex changes. They protested against tho chargo that tho federation was guilty of "scores of murders'' and tho asser tion that tho conspiracy extended back to tho first trouble In northern Idaho, which was years boforo tho ac cused was ti member of tho organiza tion, and they accused Hawley of ar guing tho case in an opening state ment.
