said: "I am sorry to be arrested on Bun

on another day. I could be taken to Jack
son, where I would be all right."
Witness said he asked Jett where he was
when the killing occurred, and Jett replied:
'None of your business."
C. H. Blanthon, who was recalled by the
prosecution, testified (nat In a conversa
tion with Captain Ewen ths day after the
shooting of Marcum, Ewen told him who
did the killing.
At 10:11 a. m., after having presented
forty-two witnesses, Commonwealth's At
torney Byrd announced that tbe common
wealth rested the case.

The defense called Curtis Jett, one of the
defendants, who said he was friendly-to
B. Marcum, and with th exception of a
few words with him some four years ago
they had always been friends. He corrob
orated Barney Schiff, called for the prose
cution, who said Jett was talking to Joe
Moore and himself before the murder.
After ths shots were fired he walked Into
the courthouse and looked about, but see
ing nothing returned by the side door and
went across the street.
He did not aid Marcum, who was then
dying. Jett said he saw. Ewen running
around the courthouse. A few minutes after
hs met Tom White on the street and went
down 4o a place near, the depot, where
they crossed the river and visited his
grandmother, Hargls, ' mother of Judge
Hdrgis, and there had dinner. .

him If he had killed her brother. He told
her he did not, but they would accuse him
of It. He and White both came back to

saloon and there called for beer.
Before he left town that morning he
bought a bottle of whisky at Goodloe
Combes' and took a part of it to his grand

cution as to his actions ot that , fateful
day,- but he, denies.! having conversations
with witnesses- who declared on the wit
ness stand he had spoken tq them about
the murder, of Marcum. , ,., .

eum:'1 Mr? Marcum Is rme of the -attorvieys
for the prosecution and Is, a brother of the
dead man.' , . . .
White said he came from a place fifteen
miles from Jackson, looking for work,
which he did not get, although he had
tried for two days. His testimony cor
roborated several witnesses for the prose-
cutlrn. Who said he had gone In the side
door of the courthouse and had come out
th front door. This was Ewen's testl
mony and agreed with Mis Clark And
Miss Rawlins, who testified on Raturday.

said Jett was not the person with him at
that time. White also corroborated Mrs.

Manawa After Reins; Appar
ently Dead.
While bsthlng In l:ske Manawa late yes
terday afternoon a young man named
Hlghstreet came very near drowning. He
was rescued with greet difficulty by the
manager of the bath house and other.
He resides at Arcadia, la,
Hlghstreet' distress was first noticed by
George Munro and Hugh Murphy and
others, who were crossing the Inks on a
steam launch. At that time only a por
tion of the man' head was visible above
the water. They called for help, but. ac
cording, to Mr. Munro, no one seemed to
comprehend that the man was drowning.
The head gradually sank and then disap
peared. After the man had teen under
water several minutes, said Mr. Munro,
the keeper of the bath house and one
other party went Into the water after him.
With much difficulty they succeeded In
bringing him to land. '
To all appearances Hlghstreet wss dead
when iaken from tho water. His face had
begun to turn black and his breath had
stopped. He was rolled over a barrel and
after an hour's hard work he was resusci
tated Several parties were in bathing
close to tho man, but none attempted to
savs him, and there wero no facilities at
the bath house for saving the man.
At the beach with Hlghstreet was a sis
ter and a Mrs. Brady, both of whom High
street asked for as soon aa he was brought
back to life. He Is about yeara of ago
and could not swim.
