But her wits were all shanken up and her overbaluaced ( llections will settle down uln Lenout'sside of, thle fence. The way of it was this: Nellie lkes a "mill" us well as ".Ja.k" McAuliffe or "J,immy" Wakely, and when matters nme to the pass that she didn't, know which horn of the dilemma. Revier or Lenlout, to sewe, she )ropos "I a ring and wo-ounce gloves. Under the cover of' Lhe night the varty repaired to a (Imet place.

WEAVING A WEB OF CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE. StatePs Ot1cers Working Hard to Convict LIzzie as the One Who Committed the 11rutaul Murder of Her Aged Parents No Blood on Her Clothes. FA ur RiVER, Mass. Aug. 29.-The 1 >rdetn murder trial to-day was rather scnsational. Drug Clerk Be tie and two others testified that Miss Lizz4 Borden attempted to buy prussic acid of Benie the day before the murders. Mrs. Churchill, the first person on the scene after the murder, testiflel that Miss Borden had told her she was in the barn at the time of the murder looking 1or some sinkers, and Miss ltussel testified Hi it L-zzie told her she went there to get a piece ofiron or tin to lix a window. The contradictory statements caused a sesation. Witnesses said there was blood on Lizzie's dresss after the mur der. Mrs. Adelaide B. Churchill said she lived next to the Bordens on tie North. The day of the tragedy she saw Uzzie standing against the side door, apparent ly distressed about something. She opened the window and asked what was the matter, and she said: Oh. Mrs. Churchill, do come over, some body has killed Ihther. Witness went over and asked where her father was. She replied: "In the sitting room." When asked where she was when it happened, she said she was in tMe barn looklog for some sinkers. The witness asked Uzzie where her mother was and she said her mother had to go some where. but she did not know but that she had been killed too. She wished somebody would go and try to find her [or at e thought she had come in sn<.e. She said her father must have an enemy for every one in the house kad been sick. After Ltie neighbors had commenced to come in, Lizzie said again that she wished some one would go and find Mrs. Borden fIr s ic was sure she had heard her co nie in, and here the Nitness des cribed finding Mrs. Borden. The wit ness said that when ihe go( i'side the house, Lizzie was so mui agitated that. she fauned her, iparing she would faint. Alfter they saw the body they left Bdd et n 'e rooi and have no knowledge what she did there, ir anythng. The witress could no' remember that there was the least sign of blood on Liz. zie's dress, hands or face at the time she first saw her; her hair was done ud and ap)earel not to be disarranged m t he slightest and there was no indication ut anything in her appearance that any vhanges had been made since she arose. Miss Alice M. Russell sai,d she had known Lizzie about eleven years. Shec c ti, to Lthe house on hearing of the a fhir and found Jizzie leaning against the door. She remembered Lizzie telling her in answer 10 a question that she went in the barn to ge a piece of iron or tin to fix a wiudoiv with. (Sensa.inal.) It wa i wbien Lizzie was sitting on the stairs that I.zzie aiid her father nust have an eneii%. I L was when a polceman su vested that sonie farm hand had (lone t,e deed that Lizzle said it could not be so Ior one man was sick and the other had to stay on the fitrm; furthermore she would not suspect either of them. She remenibered Lizzie answered all ques tions freely. it was quite evident Miss lissell's evidence had made consider able imiression oi tihe defense, and when she had finished her diret examina tion Lizzie's coutisel put, their heads to. gether and1( allowed the witness to sit down tor a moment. (On cr>ss5-examination Miss Ruissell said she t>athed Lizzie's lace after she went in and saw no signs of blood on any of her clothing. She could see no signs of any undue exertion about ILz zie, nor was she pantimg as though ex hanusted. T1hie witness was positive thut Lizzie dhid not go up stairs before the of Ileers wenit because she remembered the oflicers go)ing up to L!zzie's room and inding it locked; of their pulling the door open and of tier requesting to be al howedl I > look in first, because she did iiot know what condit,ion it was in; she looked in and finding it all right it them in. Ehe lIenic a drug clerk, Frank Kilroy, a miedhical student, and Frederick B. 1I[art, empl>)yedl in a dIrug store, testified that the (lay b>efore tihe tragedy Miss i)lordeni caime into the store and wanted to b)uy ten cents wort,h of prussic acid but was toldl it could not be sold without a prescription. TIhiey testified that Miss IBorden saLid she wanted it to put on a seal skin sacque or coat she had with her. Benie testitiedl that tier voice was tremulous but Kihroy testified to the contrary. Thel State's oflicial says that the strongest p)oint to-day was Lizzie's re mark. sneaking of her mother to Mrs. Churchill: "I do not know but she has beeni killed, too.' Lizzie made this remark while telling that she thought she heard her mother come mn. WVhat reason, ask the ofil.:tals, (fidl Uzze have ior believing her mother was killed? On the~ oth.r !:mLd, the fact that no bloodl was on Lizzie was in her favor, Roughly Treated. .T A NOIEL, A ug. 30.-The Sultan cav aIry and infantry started on exhibition into the country of the rebelions An ghieras thuis morning.
