Bassvtt had aworn ttt ah was In Llttl Rock alon. , Yesterday Hunt could not remember the name of the hotel at which he stopped In Little Rock and denied he had son under any but his own name. When the testi mony bad gone thla far. Attorney Stout ordered the ballllt to bring In a package ' from an adjoining room. When unwrapped It prqved to b the register of the Qleaaon hotel m Little Rock, Under data of Oc tober 30,' 1904. appeared the name. "M. C. Jamison. St. Louis," and "Mra. Basse tt and family. Washington, D, C." . Mrs. Baaaett s nam la Immediately under that of Jamison and those who looked at them agreed rh two wer written by the same person and that the handwriting of both la that of Mr. Bassett Th court refused to receive the ook In evidence, tor technical reason. Rev. Mr. Hunt was much agitated when the signature was shown him, but declared h did not write It nor see anyone else write It. ' Not for a Million Doll., "I could not write that handwriting, not If you gave m a million dollars," he de clared. i The data when Mr. Bassett and Mr. Hunt went to th horn of Michael Sullivan and rented th house waa October SI, 1904, the day following theTeglstratlon. Mrs. Baaaett swore yesterday that ah Introduced Hunt only by hi right name. Regarding other points during her stay In Llttl Rock she could not retnembr much. Rev. Mr. Hunt did not remember whether he had reg istered at all. H did not remember on what floor of tk hotel he stayed, though, according to th register, th room of "M. C. Jamison" 'was on tfe same floor a that f Mrs. Baaaett - Mr.. Stout' persistence In getting thla matter before th court resulted In bringing forth a rebuke. He had asked a number of questions on a line Into which the court did aot wish to go. "Art you going to persist In going Into (hi branch of th subject," demanded Judg Redlck at last "I am only making my record," replied Mr. Stout. "Well, ther will be another record made Unless you- desist," replied th court de cisively, and Inatructed the reporter to nte all that paused between the court and the attorneys. Th court left it with the attorney whether ther should b an argument or a conference, and the latter was chosen. IwiMt Sees Children. Charles C Baaaett waa given an op portunity at noon Friday to see bis two sons. Cheater and Rice, for the first tlmaJ sine Mr. Bassett took them from their horn In Washington more than two yeara ago. Court adjourned early In order to give him thin opportunity. Th children wer In Judg Redlck' offlc, and there behind th closed door, th father waa allowed to em brace them.

Mrs. Bassett, when the children were first brought over, had taken up her station at the door leading from Judge Redlck' 8 office Into the hall which la the only means of egress from that office except through Judge Redlck'a - court When the bailiff locked thla door, Mrs. Bassett came Into the court room. , Mr. Bassett waa In a pleasant frame of mind and smiled prequently during the cross-examination by Mr. Van Dusen dur ing the morning. Mrs. Bassett was not present until the children were brought over. The ordeal of Thursday, when she faced her husband and beard th contra diction of allegations of cruelty, and also was confronted with the testimony of the landlord from. Little Rock, had , had a erloua effect on her nerves. -' Wife Bpnrna th BusTCeatlon. Mr. Bassett testified that when he sug gested to his wife they ask 'the opinion of some of, their friend on the propriety of Dr. Hunt giving her expensive presents, she aid tljat would not do at alL When asked whether he knew when Mra Baaaett came to Omaha. Mr. Bassett said he did not know, but that he learned she had left Denver on July SO, 1905. for "a ix months state." meaning a atate where only lx months' residence la required to enter a suit for divorce. He .testified he sent considerable money to Mrs. Baaaett slater, Mr. Riddell, In Denver with Wh(ch to buy for hsj chil dren whatever they needed. He denied he had ever asked hi wife to return to him after Jun 30, th date on which he learned of the birth of Lawreno. When he found bla wife In Atlantic City in July, 1906,. h ald h akd her what wer her plana. - He also Inquired whether Mr. Hunt would marry her If h was di vorced, to which she replied, "Yes, he's a gentleman." A letter written by Bassett to hia son. Cheater, July I, 1903, said th beginning of th and waa at hand and told th boy al ways to try to honor hla mother. Bassett admitted they had lived at Ave different . addresses named In Washington auuKhat he owea rent at all of them. He alao admitted that many of his wife's doc tor have not been paid. Ho said h turned over nearly all hla salary to her and slie waa expected to lotk after thrs bill. A rumor -circulated regarding th alleged cause of Basaett's continued absence from the court room during the trial was Indlg nantly denied by Mr.. Bassett. To a re porter for The Bee he said: - "The statement that I waa afraid to come Into court because the resemblance between myself and the child' called Lawrence would be noted I' rldlculou and only at tributable to some sensational paper It Is a physiological fact, physicians have told me, that the first child cf a woman by her second husband, often bi-ar a resemblance to her first husband. That, of course, had nothing to do with my absence from the court roam, which was always against my wllL" . Matts aay of her married life In her pe tition for separation from James Matts.

We are glad that there bids fair to be a healthy agitation of It. We opmmend the December grand Jury of King county for making a care ful examination of the method of the that the course of study In the higher Brooklyn high schools, and for demanding grade be thoroughly revised and that home study by th pupil be not required. They found that the course of study now required of a 16-year-old pupil waa much more exacting than It was , a few year ago, and that many pupil had to study from eighteen to twenty hours a week at home, and even then failed In their ex aminations. . In his recent address before the meeting of Associated Academic princi pal, at Syracuse, President Hadley, with characteristic clearanes and force, em phasised the' need of courses of study In cluding' only a few subject, which should be thoroughly mastered by the student. Superficial smattering 1 not liberal cul ture, and It Is a poor preparation for either citizenship or busineea. The essential need I such chancre In high school course that pupils of ordinary ability can acquire them thoroughly without having to study In hour that should be devoted to rest and recreation. These change will Inspire teacher to better work, for they will feel that they are really accomplishing some thing. Leslie's Weekly.

The course of study Irs our high schoil Includes so many subjects that they cannot be thoroughly taught, and so much that ir. beedleaa I required of the pupils that to the hour of confinement In school thoy have to add hours of study at homo. A radical change la Imperatively needed. No pupil should have so many studies that thoy cannot be thoroughly mastered. - No pupil should have to imperil health by hours of study daily at home. The high school should not aim to teach everything. The course of study Is loaded up with Imprac ticable nonessentials unfitted to either do-J velep or Inform the m.lnd.

That ttiw- town t still flush 1s ap parent from the ease with which less than clever impostors are securing money with hardly more bravado than I required by the laborer who walk up to the cashier' window for his weekly stipend. To cash a worthless check anywhere be tween th Ferry building and San Mateo requires no effrontery and hardly the me dium of good clothes, in witness whereof the following example! A bright vermilion colored auto galloped up to the Diamond Jewelry company's place at 63 Van Ness avenue, and a young man turned off the aparker, turned on the hot air and landed at the counter out of breath with a check In his hand. Ha said Mrs. Fred J. Lin wanted 110 and that she was In a hurry. Samuel Crutcher wa the clerk who enabled the plausible young man to recover hi breath and th $10. The signature wa not of the plainest, but Mr. Crutcher wa not worried about that until the bank returned the paper with a request to know who 'Toot Toot" wear After deciding that the .check wa really so signed Mr. Crutcher found that "Toot Toot" waa not on hi visiting list, and h notified th police. Out In the Jungle somewhere th humorous, forger may still be tooting, but the police have not found him. The rest of the list reads like a roll call at the Down and Out club.
