EXPERT WITNESS HOLDS POOLE TO BE INSANE.

Dr. Thompson, of Lafayette, on Stu 1 T a nl vt i - I uesday, Does Not Agree With EiMeim ,t Or. WettwflL * .■ Dr. Frank R. Thompson, of Lafayette, qualified as an expert witness in the Poole trial Tuesday and wai bn the stand practically during th; entire session of the day. He differed from Dr. Wetherill as to the point in the skull where the charge of shot from Poole’s gun had entered it, supporting the claim made by the defense that the gun when" discharged war lower than Kemper’s head aad tilted upward when discharged. He holds that Poole is insane, saying that in his opinion he has chronic illusion al insanity, caused by congenital defects or acquired disease of <>•« brain. The. evidence was not sensational but Dr. Thompson held firmly to the view that Poole is not sane. A number of other witnesses also examined, most of them beinz Benton county men who have known Poole for a number of years and who testified that they regarder him insane. These witnesses told of peculiar tendencies he has had covering long period of years. While this evidence 'is quite interesting, it is largely the same from each witness. All tell of his restless manner, that he went about talking to himself and that he never completed any task, but jumped from one thing to another. Attorney Barce said that evidence of that kind might require four or five days to complete. ■..:•?

- Rlha Ylzsesk filaAAiAVo I>l tIC JwCK 9IIOOWIB OuIVCTCG ~r LX. ; In Cold Bat Stayed on Job. Tuesday was about as disagreeable a day as could be figured out for a blue rock shoot and the damp, cold ground and the stinging west wind operated against good marksmanship and kept those who attended the shoot in a greater or less amount of bodily torture all the time. But the program except for the cow, and Chris who was to have supplied the bovine, had sold her a few days before the shoot, conditioned that if there was any demand thar she be put up as a prize the sale was off. But the shooters were more interested in the turkey, duck and chicken prizes and found all they could do to get the fourteen events pulled off before the shades of evening made it too dark to shoot. X Notwithstanding the r’gors of the cold, the shoot was a first-class success and it was demonstrated {bat there are a large number of able blue rock marksmen who will be ready for a shoot almost any time under favorable weather conditions.

Everett Brown was easily the best ot the shooters and he won five firsts and one second. Chris Koepkey was the only one to break ten straigh*. blue rocks. He accomplished this feat in the twelfth event Everett and Clint Brown tied in one event with nine each. The events resulted as the first prize in each event being a turkey, the second a duck and the third a. chicken: >l. Everett Brown, Ist; ’ Cleve Eger. 2nd; Harry Eger, 3rd. ■‘ 2.
