Levitation, the most delusive and
daring diversion ever devised to de
light and disturb the comprehension
of man. This latest of Ritchie’s illu
sions is pronounced by scientists and
all who have ever witnessed it, to be
the most incomprehensible, the most
astounding and marvelous effect ever
conceived in the wide scope of
necromancy. The human body sus
pended in mid-air with no visible or
invisible means of support, which is
proven by passing a solid hoop several
times around the suspended body.

(Continued from first page.)
edly statements quoted from his t es
timony in hearing of application for
bail, that he had not thrown his coat
down because it would be a near
route home, that ne had stated then
that Ball and Cole remained in the
house six or eight minutes, that he
had placed himself in the thicket to
await their coming out, all of which
formed a part of the defendant’s tes
timony in the hearing of the applica
tion for bail.
Defendant stated that Mrs. Cole was
formerly a Mrs. Gans, that he had
stayed at the hotel of Jno. Cook, but
denied that he had there had improp
er relations with the woman. Witness
denied Cole had sent a messenger to
him, isking to arbitrate differences.
Upon redirect examination, defend
ant denied that Floyd Thomas had
told him that he could find Cole at the
Thomas home, stated that he had
tried to compromise matters with
Cole, but Cole had sent word that he
did not want an agreement but want
ed to kill him. When excused m
further testimony the defendant had
occupied the wdtness stand just one
hnur anrl n half
BEN THOMAS.
Ben Thomas, of Riehwoods, stated
that with Newt Vance, he tried to
arbitrate difference between Cole and
Johnson but could do nothing because
Cole refused to sign same unless he
could name the terms, Cole didn’t
want a settlement because he was
going to kill Johnson anyway, this
took place two days before the killing.
On cross examination, witness stated
that Cole wanted Johnson to put up
all he had as a guarantee that he

to the small attentions showh his wife
by Johnson.

Frank Mills, of Riehwoods, told of a
conversation in store, in which John
son told Cole if he didn’t fix the
fence he would have to move off his
place. Cole said he had moved on
the place to make a crop and would
stay if he had to kill Johnson.
The defense then rested its case,
except for evidence to be brought out
in rebuttal and the court being anx
ious to push the case through as
speedily as possible, thought a night
session advisable and took a recess
to 7:15 p. m.
HARTWELL HOWARD.
When court reconvened at 7:40, an
examination of the witnesses of the
state in rebuttal of the testimony
offered by the defense, Hartwell
Howard was first called. Upon being
asked what he had heard Johnson say
to Cole prier to the killing, he hesi
tated in his reply. At this point
Attorney Jones objected to the per
sistent questioning of Attorney Camp
bell and stated that the witness had
told the attorney in question he knew
nothing. To this Mr. Campbell re
plied in cnarging that Mr. Jones had
sought to take the witness away from
them in the ante-room. This Mr.
Jones denied and the controversy
became quite heated, the judge taking
a hand, overruling the objection of
the defense. Witness stated that
Johnson had said improper relations
existed between himself and the
woman in question while the wife
of Cans.
JNO. D. COOK.

in question and improper relations

intimate relations with a former
woman friend.
WM. NEWTON NANCE.
Newton Nance, of Eight Mile, who
had served as an arbitrator between
Cole and Johnson, testified that
Johnson had written him a letter.
Mr. Campbell here took the
stand in regard to this letter, which
he stated had been lost together with
the original minutes of the examin
ing trial. Nance was again recalled
and gave conversation of Cole,
Thomas and himself. Cole had said
he would forfeit all he had if Johnson
would leave his wife alone, provided
Johnson would give a like guarantee,
On cross examination, witness denied
that Cole had said he wanted to go to
the post ofllce, for that would give
him a chance to kill Johnson, also de
nied that he had said he (Nance) kept
Cole from killing Johnson. Witness
testified that he had advised Cole
against marrying Mrs. Gans, because
her reputation was bad. Denied that
he had ever had it in for Johnson or
that he ever heard Cole say he ought
to have killed Johnson ten years ago.
LAFAYETTE NANCE.
Esquire L. Nance, of Richwoods,
testified that Johnson in the prelimi
nary trial stated that he had waited tc
kill Cole and not hurt Ball and aflirm
ed other statements from that record,
denied by Johnson in his testimony.
G. L. GRANT.
G. L. Grant, stenographer of New
port, testified that he took down tes
timony before Judge Fulkerson in the
application for bail. From original
notes, witness refreshed his memory
and testified that Johnson had said
Cole and Ball were in the house 6 or 8
minutes, while he stayed there tc
watch them pass, further that John
son had said he wanted to see which
way they went. Witness further re
lated testimony of defendant in this
