"I had been troubled with rheu

In the latter was particularly
erere. I, of court, took med

permanent relief. One day about
three years ago whllo reading a
newspaper, I uw an advertise

FREMONT, 'Neb., Feb. 12. (Special Tele

torno time before court convened yesterday
afternoon with crowds who came to bear the
trial of tbo case against William Ilhca,
charged with tho murder of Herman Zahn.
The defendant was brought Into court hand
cuffed to Deputy Sheriff Stiles. Ho wore a
black sack suit, whlto shirt and high turn
over whllo collar and a dark blue necktie.
Ills faco was palo and ho wore an anxious
look. Ho appeared to pay no attention
whatever to the crowd, taking his seat In
tho chair near his attorneys as unconcerned
ss nny person present. He sits most of the
tlmo erect, his thin lips closely pressed to
gether, listening Intently to the examination
of tho Jurors, his eyes at times betraying
an Intense eagerness, especially when the
question Is nsked, "Have you any conscien
tious scruples against tho Infliction of the
death penalty?"
When court adjourned yesterday after
noon ihd-rc$ular panel- of twenty-four hart
been exhausted and the eleven Jurors then
In the box had been passed for cause. L..

bailiffs and took the Jury to the Windsor
hotel, whero they will be kept during tho

Grriiinn Vn re well to Jury.
A tnnidwhat amusing Incident happened
Just ns court was about to adjourn. As the
crowd was waiting for the Jurors to pass
out, no onu being allowed to leave until
after the Jury, someone standing In the
rear of tho room called out with n decided
German accent, "Veil, good-bye." A bailiff
escorted the surprised offender to the front
of the bench, where he was reprimanded by
Judge Urlmlson for contempt of court. Tho
defendant was allowod sixteen peremptory
challenges and the stato six. E. F. Gray,
senior counsel for the defonse, Btrongly
objected to tho order of tho challenges,
which Is, defendant six, state three, de
fendant six. stato two, defendant four,
Hiatn one, but his objections wcro over
ruled. '
This morning tho Judge Instructed tho
sheriff to All the Jury by calling talesmen.
Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon forty talesmen-
had been called. The dofendant had
exhausted nlno peremptory challenges and
tho state three. Dwlght Daker, a Wyoming
mine owner, who Ilvos here, has been the
only man who had decided conscientious
scruples against tho Infliction of the death
penalty. Of the men now In tho Jury box
all but ,two have read newspaper roports
of tho caso and heard It talked of, hut
disclaim any fixed opinions such as would
requlro evidence to remove.

County Attorney Stlnsou has by leave of
the court endorsed seven additional names

ono witnesses for the state. O. 0. Mar

tho questions nsked by Attorney Oray of
the defense, indicate that tbo defendant
may Bet up tho defense of Justifiable homi

largo as yesterday. Snyder, Hooper, Scrlb

closo attention to the tedious repetition of
questions to prospective Jurymen, nnd

sits In his chair apparently oblivious to
tho prcsenco of nnyono except tho attor
neys, court nnd tho men In the box, with
pale faco and cold clenr eyes fixed on tho

fractured In several places from the effects
ot n blow received from some blunt Instru
ment. The witness had gono to the Full

Fullhart's horses for trespass on his hay.
They found tho doors closod and fastened
,wlth n rope. On tho door ,was written:
"Half mllo east, building fence; como
out."
They found tho body near a sled, on
which were thrco colls of wire. A ham

the evidence, relatlvo to tbo condition of the
body, and described minutely tho firearms
of Fullhart, especially n largo 44-raliber
Colt's revolver of cap and bullet make,
which tho state will try to prove was used
to strlko tho fatal blow In the hands of
Oxley.
Dr. R. C. Talbot and Dr. Clinton Day, who
made post-mortem examinations of th

LINCOLN, Feb. 12. (To tho Editor of The
Bee.) Walt Mason says that one way a
small man can gain notoriety Is by ripping
a largo ono up tho back. Walt says a good
many things that sound ridiculous and a
good many that republicans, who aro proud
to havo him classed among us, would rather
he would not say. Mason has nhard tlmo
digging up enough from his old "think
tank" to supply tho funds necessnry to
keep him In the bosom ot his family, nnd
he assumes tho rolo of a pessimist nnd
rips largo men up tho bnck nd makes
himself uotorlous every time ho does It.
His attacks on Hon. E. Rosuwatcr add
Id his notoriety, but people arc tired of
Walt Mason, "Hot Tnmales" nnd columns
of "Household Hints." His remarks are
nbsurd an.t fall short of being the senti
ments of thoso for whom he poses ns n
mouthpiece.
It has been my fortune to bo around a
little over this old stato, of ours perhaps
I may say I have seen moro of It recently
than Brother Mason and I can't see n
single republican, not oven from our
"tower," who says amen to Walt Mason b
breaks.
Mason now thinks that If tho legislature
would quit fooling nnd elect D. E, Thomp
son to the senate, or anybody but Rosewntor,
It would glvo general satisfaction. Mason
Is tho only man In tho stnto who would
hazard his reputation by expressing such
a wild opinion and when ho says "general
satisfaction" tho absurdity becomes stupen
dous. With n9 llttlo right to express the
general" opinion ns Brother Mason, allow
mo to say that I met In tho Lincoln lobby
the other evening several "old lino" re
publicans tho good old gang who sup
ported Thomas Majors In days gono by, tho
henchmen who brought the republican party
Into disrepute In tho state, tho old "ring
leaders whom Edward Rosewatcr fought In

not appear as such to thoso who squirm
out ot their dens once or twice during tho

regarded very favorably by the republican
press ns a eandldato for tho senate."
can send Mr. Mason seVcral good proofs
of this assertion of Brother Brown's nnd
furthermore, If tho willy tnmale man will
tako n cold, bleak ride through the Ico and
snow of tho rural districts, I can show
him tho "general" opinion. We would go
over Into Cass county, hack to Seward,
down Into Saline any place on God's earth
whero thero nre republicans.
People can tolerate a good bit of "hot
air" before they get tired, but Walt Mason
Is tho poorest newspaper man In Nebraska
Ho can go on all bo pleases about people
and things away over Yit) ocean wave, but
when ho makes funny remarks about people
wo know It Is tlmo for him to "cheese It."
Ho can call King Edward an ass or a clam
that Is tight wo don't know Edward; he
can kick about tho fclldw tho queen of
Holland has espoused, wo don't know him;
but If ho Isn't a better man than the hot
tamale vender the queen Is sad tonight
But if Walt labors under the Impression
that wa don't know, Edward Rosewatcr nnd
