The county attorney replied that he would be glad to ao put his queatlons that the witness would not be compelled to treapasa on around which Mr. Qurley wanted to renerve fur argument. "Ca'.l Abble nice." aald Mr. English, when A. W. Larson, atreet car foreman, had given some Information about the time certain cara passed Fortieth and Famam streets. "How old are you?" "I u 19 last November the 30th." Then the 19-year-old girl, with worldly experience of a woman twice her age and the face of one older, told of her early life, being born In Allerton, la , the daughter of a constable, of moving with the family to Dea Molnea and her mar riage to Irving Rice, a private In the tailed States army, in 1906. She said they were married by a United Brethren minis ter, but she did not remember his name. Then ehe told of going to Cuba when her husband's regiment wae ordered there, of bar return to the United States and that ha) did not know the whereabouts of her husband. Gives Datee Directly. Almost every date aaked for by the prose cutor was given with directness by the woman. "When did you leave Des Molnea for Omaha?'' "December 2, 1907." "When did you meet Dr. Rustin?" "December 23, 1907." She told how she lived at Grace Walton's resort at 911 Douglas street and the land lady called Dr. Rustin to take care of her when it became apparent she was going to reed an operation. 8he aald Dr. Rustin performed two operations on her at the Clarkson hospital, one in January and the elber In February of the present year. "When you left the hospital where did enna acts gentAyyet prompt ly ontke bou els, cleanses he system effectually, assisfe one m overcoming habitual consignation permanently.

Mis. Kice said she lived at Walton's until May 1, when she went to Council Bluffs and lived at the Grand hotel for two months. She swore that there she saw Dr. Rustin every day and that he spent almost all of his time with her to the neglect of his prwtice. After Mrs. Rice left the Grand hotel she saya she secured two rooms at 714 North Sixteenth street with a woman named Mrs. Manning and there she was with the phy sician dally, going from the Manning board ing house to the Loyal hotel the latter part of August, where she stayed a week. She said she saw Dr. Rustin dally, and they left the hotel because the proprietor re quested them to leave. Closing of Rnstln Career. This testimony brought the story to the dates comprising the closing chapters of Dr. Rustln's life, and the woman told In reply to questions of how the physician told her of his business affairs; that he had no money and no practice; many debts and some notes at the First National bank. "As to his Insurance I understood he had almost 100,0X), which was all payable to his wife," said the woman. "Did he ever take up the question of taking his life to secure this Insurance?" "He did." "When?" "About a month before his death." "How did he come to do It?" "He wanted to end his life." "How?" "He wanted me to kill him." "Why?" "So It would not be suicide?" "Did he explain?" "Yes, he said the family could not got the insurance if It was suicide and the only arguments he used to get me to kill him were that I must do it for the sake of his wife and children so they could live comfortably." "Did yuu aceeed to his demands?" "I did." "What preparations were made?" "He bought a gun." Mrs. Rice then related the incidents con nected with the first gun secured by Dr. Rustin for her to shout him. It whs se cured at a pawnshop in Omaha, taken to he Loyal hotel, where she was sent for artrldges. She bought the shells and took them to the hotel. While trying to load It she took out n screw which put the ham mer to the bad and he went to Council Bluffs with Dr. Rustin to tset it repaired. English Produces (isa. Attorney English produced a .32-caliber revolver and gave it to the witners. "Is that the gun?" he asked. "It looks like the one I can see scratches on the side near thls screw, which 1 believe to be the one I took out with a silver knife at the Hotel Loyal." Mrs. Hire said this Incident was two weeks and three days previous to the morning Dr. Rustin was shot, and it was then planned for her to go with the phy sician to his office 8unday evening. Au gust 15, where she was to shoot Dr. Rus tin and escape from the building. "The shooting was' to take place quite late," she said In an unconcerned sort of way. "We wanted to wait until people were off the street, but not until the street ran topped, as we expected them to make noise enough to deaden the sound of the hot." But the un waa broken and the couple could not fix it. They had to postpone the "job," aa Mr. Rice called It County Attorney English had the woman deKcribf where she was to Htand with re lation to the, physician and where she waa to shoot him. "Far enough away so there wouid be no powder burns, and I was going to shoot him in the abdomen so he could live a few days." she said. "Did he ever say anything about taking his own life?" "Never." "Did he ever talk of being killed by someone else?" "Yes." Traded for Another IMstol. The gun was taen to Council Bluffs and traded for another pistol the following Thursday, August 20, and the couple re turned to Omaha, meeting by appointment at Seventeenth and Webster streets. They went to the physician's office In the Fax ton building about 8:30 o'clock, but the physician looked out of the window and saw that too many people were abroad. Mrs.' Rice said he was afraid she could not get out of the building without getting caught and he suggested that they go out to his home and that she shoot, him In his own barn, where It would appear he had been shot by footpads. "Was this satisfactory to you?" asked the county attorney. "This was all right with me and we took the car to Thirty-ninth and Famam streets, yalked over to Forty-first and Harney streets where we made the final arrangements for the shooting: in the barn, Dr. Rustin handing me the gun at that point." Mrs. Rice said she had been In the barn before and knew the way, so she started to go In the hack way; saw someone drive by; lost her nerve and walked east on Farnam street, wnltlng for a street car. When a car came Roing east Dr. Rustin irnt off. and she did not pet on. "He was nngry with me for leaving him and scolded me," she said. " 'You must shoot me for my children's sake and for the sake of my wife.' is what he said." rirturn to the Barn. Then the woman told of their return to the barn ami the most dramatic incident in her life of being alone for two hours In a barn three miles from the city with a m.in who was begging her to shoot him nnd alternately threatening to kill her If ho did not. Of Dr. Rustin calmly step ping back a f.'W feet from her, with his hands behind him and his coat back, say ing. "Shoot me now shoot me now." Without emotion the woman declared she did not raise the gun to shoot, but re plied. "I cannot do It, doctor I cannot do It." Then the physician arappled with her, wrenched the gun from her hand and strug gled In the darkness of the barn. "t begged him not to kill me," she Bald, "and we stayed there about two hours until after the cars stopped, and we took a carriage for Omaha.' the doctor going Into Ills own home and calling one. He told me if I did not shoot him that evening I woul.t have to do It some time anvway." Between this dramatic and tragic seen in the barn, the woman told of the laps of time until Tuesday evening, September 1. the evening before Dr. Rustin was shot. She tohl of Seeing him almost dally at the Millard hotel and the place of the Gleason woman on Twelfth and Douglas atresia. She said he stayed with her at the Gleason place almost all day September 1, going to his orfiee about t 30 or 4 o'clock In the afternoon. "When you went to the office In the aft ernoon did ynu see a man there?" "Yts " "Had the phslclan abandoned the Idea of your killing him?" "Yes "Did he do this before he saw anyone else?" "No." "He left you to go out and s?e some one?" "Yes. " ' Did you know who he went out to see?" "No." "Did you afterward ascertain who It was?" ! "Yes." "Who?" "Some one called Charley." "Do you know who It was now?" 'Ye, Charles E. Davi." All of this testimony came without an objection from the defense, but Attorney Gurley kept warning the woman and the county attorney that they were getting about as far as he proposed to have them without objection and argument and that they must go slowly. When County Attor ney English asked this question the climax with Mr. Gurley was reached. "When Dr. Rustin returned to you In the private room after being out to consult this person, was there anything then said by him with reference to any change in his plane with reference to his death?" Mr. Gurley announced that he was ready for the argument right then and that Mr. Woodrough would present the arguments for Vn Ucfense against admitting hearsay testimony. Mr. Woodrough had a big pile of law books and argued for an hour, after which adjournment was taken until 2 o'clock. County Attorney English began arguing when the hearing was called at 2 o'clock. Kvldenr-e on HriolTer. The court and attorneys agreed to ad journ until 9:9) Saturday morning, but at the' request of Mr. English the principals were called back and the testimony of Samuel Friedman, the Council Bluffs pawn broker was taken. Friedman, who con ducta a pawn shop at 63 Broadway, Coun cil Bluffs, testified that a man answering to the description of Dr. Rustin had en tered his store with a revolver which he de sired repaired Immediately. Friedman in formed Rustin that it would be Impossible to repair the gun at once, and offered to trade a similar revolver for the broken one, providing Rustin would pay one dol lar in addition, which was done and Rua tln left the store, with the gun which Is believed to have caused his death, but which has not yet been found.

BOYS' SCHEME FAILSTO WORK Juveniles Start In on Little Graft nd Police Officer Gets Them. Carnival graft, conducted in a most viru lent form, considering the age of Its pro moters, seems to have come to light in the arrest of three Juveniles who are said to be the owners of a thriving shoe shine holdup game. It Is said that the young sters, who are only about 12 year of age, agree with some "E. Z. Mark" to shine their vlctlm" hoes for a dime, and then refuse to finish the Job after polishing one boot unless another dime Is forthcoming. Patrolmen Bitter arrested Roy Elrod of 414 Hickory street, Ed Skellenger of ill Hickory street, and Sanders Wheeler of Sixth and Cass streets late Thursday after noon on charges of incorrigibility In con nection with the bootblack game, and the lads were turned over to Juvenile Officer Mogy Bernstein.

Months and months ago certain eminent member of the British Society for Psychi cal Research made with more than thur usual solemnity the portentous announce ment that at last they had received from the dead communications of a character so ronvlr.clng that even the most skeptical of scientists would have to give up his doubts as to the possibility of such mes sages. Recently a special cable dlnpatcli from London presented what It Ih fair to assume were fair specimens of these nt w "proofs," and It must be confessed that the were about the sorriest chicks ever hatched bv prolonged Incubation. 8omo of the communications, presumably typical ,.f the great mass printed in the latest volume of the society's Journal, were prose and some were verse, and It would be hard to tell which were the most likely to convict the author, whether dead or alive, of drooling Idiocy.

In deed, was rather worse km poetry than the prose aa prose, but the latter was about as bad It could be, eo far aa Its evidential value went, for It gave not even one vaguest hint of a auper or extra terrestrial origin.
