C, Oct, 0,-In the trlal cf Ernost Hnywood for tho kllllng of Ludlow Sklnner, three Important wlt¬ nesses for the defense.R. N. Slms, well known lawyer; Wlllls O. Briggs, young newppeper man, and Bernard B, Schmltz, of Baltlraore--were examined, the testl¬ mony of thc.a-, together wlth a largo number ot character wltnesses, con- .umed the eotlre day's session. 81ms testlfled to havlng seen a dlffl- culty between Haywood and Bklnner. He Bald he saw Haywood nnd Sklnner at the- southern steps to tho poBtofDce. Saw Sklnner strike Haywood, knocklng hlm partly over. Haywood steadled him- eelf, came up wlth hls revolver, and flred when Sklnner was noar the curb, havlng sprung away whon he struck the hlow. Tho second shot waa flred ¦when Sklnner had passed behlnd a car- rlage ln the street. He could not say whether Sklnner trled to draw hls plstol or not, owlng to his positlon, right side belng to Slms (Sklnner was loft-handed). WHEM SHOT XVAH FIRED. Wlllls G, Brlggs testlfled that he was talklng wlth Slms at the tlme the shoot¬ lng occurred, hls back belng toward the ecene of the _hootin_, so he saw nothing untll nfter the first shot, Ho sald the plstol shot caused me to look around. As I turned to south tho flrst thlng at- traeted my attentlon was Mr Sklnner leav- Ing the sldewalk. He was on the grass plet. Sklnner's back was rather towards mo as ho was leavlng the sldowalk. Ho turned hls head towards mo. At that tlme Haywood was a short dlstancc from the parapet, about on a llne wlth me. I saw the plstol extended and the flash of the second shot. When I looked back Sklnner was near tho street car track, about two-thlrds the diatance to curb to track. He was golng ln northea'st dlrectlon. He passed over the wagon between mo and Sklnner when he crossed the track. 1 saw him when he fell, first on bls knoes, then hls face; fell on the rall. Sllghtly turnlng of Sklnner's head caused me to look back to Haywood. l STRUCK HAYWOOD. Bernard S. Schmltz, ot Baltlmore, tes¬ tlfled that whlle at the Cltizens' Bank corner wlth C. B. Hocutt he saw Skvnncr have Haywood by the lapel of hls coat. Then Sklnner struck Haywood, who fell back toward the postoffice. Sklnner then sprang back about elght feet. Hls loft hand was td hls hlp pocket. He took two or throe steps toward Haywood as though to renew the attack.' Then ,.the flrst shot was flred by Haywood and Sklnner stnggered. He was about where tho flaggijig and the grass plot Jolns. The cross examination of Schmltz was very rlgl3, effort bemg made to break down hls character. Later the defense introduced affldavlts from Governor Smlth, of Maryland; Mayor McLane, of Baltlmore; Judgo Hlnsler. Congressman Denny, Wachtov, and a large number of other prominent Marylanders. all te.tlfylng to the hlgh character of Schmltz. The characters of R. N- Slms and Wll¬ lls G.

Green was chosen vlce-presldent, Z. T. Bynum was re-elected secretary and troasurer and supervlsor of sales. In hls annual report, President Cole¬ man says last year's crop "Is conceded to have been tbe best grown in ton years, and that tho average prlce pald for lt ehoujd be n sufflclent guarantee to the farmers that n crop of tobacco of good quality wlll always pay them a proflt over cost of productlon. There has been a very decldod lncrease, "A rag. a bone and a bank of halr; The fool, he calle her Iils lady falr." This Conception of Lovely Woman we do not cndorse. To us she seems not the rude skcleton of the modern poet of materialism, but rather "a thing of beauty and a joy forever." At this season, when even nature is radiant in autumnal tints, the rich, mellow blend- ings of rare color combiriations surely "add a perfutne to the rose." A season richcr in tone and tint we have never seen. Entire suits of the same material is the rule, and the fabrics in mode vary like the seasons.brown, green and blue seem the favorite shadings, and rough and smooth faces each has its advocate. New and smart effects come all the way from 50c. to $2.50 the yard. Sllk and Tytice Bands are in voguo for dressy garnlture. Even¬ ing use gives wldo latltude for taste and frugallty allke. Volleu, Etamlnes, Albatross, and even tbe homely Cotton Crepona form flttlng adjuncts for the witchery of home. Thus you have Uie entlre gnmut of color tone wlthln easy range of l_J-.c. to *M,-0 the yard. Sllk and Wool OlorUts and the famoua Lansdownes appear in all the wanted shades.?1.00 and *l,_B. Street service affords scope for scrcne as well as savage riot in colors. The Corded Velvets are about the most wcar-resisting surfaces, and they come in all shad¬ ings. Smooth surface nonpareil effects in Velveteen are very modish and correct. Black is easily prime favorite. Any article YOU want and WE haven't we cheerfully summon by those subtle servitors.telegraph and express. Suits of correct cut are coming in daily now. These Suits and Separate Coats have the endorsement of the New York mode. lr. the o-utput of our manufacturles, and all of our factorlos are runnlng on full time wlth orders ahead. Thero should be some ray of comfort In this to leaf dealer and farmers, who have been ln the dumps slnce tho deellne ln leaf as a contlnued. good trado to the manufac- turers will eventually mean a more ac¬ tlve demand for the raw materlal. As to tho new crop, tho reports aro not so favorable as they were before lt began to rlpen, and lt does not seem to be curlng as well as the growth In the field would lndlcate. There seems to.be a lack of body, and the yleld per acreo is Bald to be far below that of last year.
