Youn; Qulnn was In the crowd and both ho and Gallagher drank their full shure of this half-gallon and half-pint and another half-gallon and half-pint which Gallagher helped pay for. Gal lagher was on his way back from Mrs. McIIale's saloon, where he went to get ft glass of beer after dinner, when he came up with Qulnn, who had gone to the same place for n pall of beer.

The defendants' eislon of the affair as given In Attorney Kelly's opening was altogether dlffeient to that told by the Qtiinns. Joe Gallagher was being held about the knees by young Qulnn, while old man Qulnn belabored him over thi head vlth his cane. Mrs. Gal lagher lescued her boy nnd told him to run for his life. He did, and was heading down the railroad track, pur sued by the Qulnns, when old man Qulnn was felled bv a stone which his sin who brought up the tear, threw at the lleelng Gallagher. Mis Nellie Qulnn was the flist wit ness called by the commonwealth She told that her husband. James Qulnn, J. went down to Mcllale's to get a pall of beer foi Thomas Cummlngs, who was w 01 king n Sunday shift on the gravity Hacks, opposite their homp. Tho witness happened by the Gallagher house and heard Tom Gallagher, his mother and giandmother talking to gethet and Tom Gallagher was beaid to sav "The bald-headed . I'll follow him I owe him a grudge and 1 11 get it out of him." The witness then started to McIIalo' ) to bring her husband home. Tom Gal lagher stalled In the sirac dliectlon, but had gone only a shoit distance when Ills mother called him back and gave him some blight shining article! which he put In his hip pocket. Gal lagher then hurried on to the hotel, reaching It before Mis Qulnn, but not until aftei Mr. Qulnn had departed. Tom Gallagher saw the wltnes out side of Mcllale's nnd began to abue her ind to make threats to blow her brains out. Joseph Gallagher ap peared about this time and Joined with his brother In calling her nam.s. He also remarked to the witness that It would be a sorry day for her. GVMAGHER STARTED FOR IIIM. Tho witness' husband had left Mc llale's and gone across the commons to a clump of tiees, wbeie he and Cummlngs weie engaged In drinking the pall of beer when the othns went down the mad to Mcllale's. When ho came from behind the trees and took to the rond Joe Gallagher saw him and shouted to his younger lu other. "Thne goes the . m catch him," at the same time starting up the hill, followed by Tom Gallagher. The witness thought in pass them and leach her husband, but Tom Gal lagher threatened to kill her If she fol lowed and In her fear she lemulned standing She heard tho lie exchangod between her husband and Joe Galli gher and saw the latter fell her hus band with n blow. Thev weie all beat ing Qulnn when old man Qulnn ran over and besought them not to kill hlj boy Mrs. Gallagher said something to her sons and thev turned upon old man Qulnn. Thomas Gallagher t-tiuck him on the side of the head with a stone and as he was uttering Joseph Gallagher hit him with another stonu on tho foichead Vheu he was dono Joe Gallagher kicked him. The wit ness approached the scene of the fight but was kept ftom partli Ipatlng In it by Tom Gallagher's tin eats to blow her heart out. Thomas Cummlnps was the second witness He said he saw the. bWllgci ents bunched together and could not tell who threw the stones that struck tho old man. He was working bn the railroad when the lighting was on. In answer to a question by Judgo Gorden the witness said that tho two Qulnns were about thirty feet apart when the old man received tho blow. Ho did not see Mrs. Jnmes Qulnn, Jr., unywhero In tho vicinity of the fight ing, he said. Neither did he tee old man Qulnn using his cane on the Gal lagher's.

He went away and later 1 saw him talking with John McDonald from a lot which we own. nnd which Is close to the Gravity road. I saw my son coming up the road and I saw Joe Gallagher running after him and yelling. James did not pny any at tention to him nt first, but finally h" turned and asked- 'Is It me you want?' Joe Gallagher said It was nnd my son asked: 'What do you want?' Galla gher said- 'There's trouble between me and you and It must be settled ' My son suld: ' We will settle It, here and now,' and he took something out of his pocket nnd struck my son, say ing: ' You scoundrel, take that.' My son fell. Mis. Gallagher' and Mrs. Dempsey came limning up the rall toad to the scene nnd threw stones at my son. He was getting up. I think he had regained his feet nnd they knocked him down again. My hus band came actoss the railroad. Ho stood a minute as If some one had spoken to him. Then I saw Thomas Gallagher strike him with a stone. He stnggered, but befoio he fell Joe Gal lagher hit him In the forehead." On cioss-examlnatlon Mrs. Qulnn ad mitted that when her husband fell nnd she inn to his side she said to her sou: 'James you ate the cause of your fath er's death" She denied that he ic torted: "Shut up, or I'll give you .t thump In the mouth " Whnt ho did say was- "That Tom Gallagher killed him." She testified that her husband was CO years old. M'DONALD'S TESTIMONY. John McDonald, the man with whom the elder Qulnn wns talking befoin he ran over to the light, was the next witness. He did not see the fatal blow struik He saw Mis. Gallagher hit old man Qulnn and he saw the latter hit Joe Gallagher with his cane. He could not tell, though, who thiew the stone with which old man Qulnn was felled. Martin Rattle and Thomas Carden, who witnessed the affray from a dis tance of 300 feet, were also called, but did not throw any light on the case. They saw old man Qulnn fall, but could not tell by whom the blow was struck. James Qulnn, Jr. whom the defense charges w lth the death of his father, was next subjected to a lengthy ex amination. He first recounted the In cident at the school house In the morn ing, when he and Tom Gallagher got Into a quarrel and which ended In his striking Gallagher and knocking him to the giound. Then he went on to tell of the Incidents of the afternoon. The first he saw of the Gallaghers was when he was starting home after coming from behind the tree, where he and Cummlngs went to dilnk beer. Uoth the Gallagher bojs and their mother were at Mcllale's nnd when they saw him they came after him. Joe called after him several times and finally taught up with him. Joe referred to tho trouble the two fami lies weie having and said "We'll set tle it now." The witness nnsweied that he wouldn't have anything to do with him that day. Cummlngs offered to Intel efere and Joe told lUm 'keep away. This will bo man against man. ' WAS SHOVED AWAY. Joe caught hold of Qulnn nnd was shoved away. He caught hold of him again and was again pushed back. Qulnn's attention was attracted by Tom Gallagher and his mother com ing up and while his head was turned partially aside Joe Gallagher drew some lnstiument from his back pocket and hit him In the breast, sending him to tho ground. Then the three G.allagheis and Mrs. Dempsey assaulted him, the bojs pounding and kicking him and the women pelting him with stones. This wns going on for several minutes when Qulnn's father came rushing over and begged of them not to Kill his boy The assailants turned their attention to the father, all of them pelting him w lth stones. Thomas Gallagher hit the old man on the side of the head with a big stone and as he was tottering Joe Gallagher hit him with another stone on the forehead. The witness got up and chased Tom Gallagher, but did not overtake him. When he re turned the tumult had subsided and his father was being carried to the house. On cross-examination he denied hav ing seen his father use his cane on the Gallaghers and positively swoie that he not only did not thiow a stone at Joe Gallagher which struck his fath er, but that he did not thiow or at tempt to throw a stone during all the melee. He also denied that his mother said: "You are the cause of your fath er's death." What she did say, ho averred, was that "You are the cause of the trouble that brought on jour father's death." He admitted that he whipped Tom Gallagher at the school house In the morning and that he would have given him a worse beating If the crowd had not restrained him. COMMONWEALTH RESTED. With his testimony the common wealth rested nnd Mr. Kelly opened for the defense. Ills veislon of the affair was, as told above, that young Qulnn killed his father In attempting to strike Joe Gallagher Tom Gallagher came home to din ner under the Influence of dilnk and with blood on his face nnd clothing, Mr. Kelly went on to say. Ills mother learned fiom him of the encounter at the school house nnd when ho started out to go to Mcllale's In the afternoon Mis Gallagher feated he would get Into more tiouble and sent her mother to the chutes, wheie Joo Gallagher was working, to tell him that Joe was drinking nnd to have him go to Mc llale's and bring him home. Mrs. Gallagher said that Qulnn was down at Mcllale's and as this height ened her fear for her son, she herself went down. Mrs. Qulnn was there and she heard her say to Tom: "You'll aw allow -our own blood before this dav Is over." Mis. Gallagher and Joo were taking the younger brother home and when they approached the crossing where Qulnn and Cummlngs were standing. Cummlngs called out to Qulnn: "There's vour man." Qulnn turned to Joe Gallagher and said: "I licked your brother this morning und 1 can lick you, too " At this ho struck out with his right hand at Joe, but missed him, and then swung the beer barrel at him. Joe then struck back nnd knocked him down Qulnn caught Joo by the knees ai'd was trying to pull him down when old man Qulnn appeared and com menced to pound Joe over the head with his cane. STRUCK HIS FATHER. Mrs. Gallagher Jumped In to save her boy and succeeded In getting him away. Joe ran down the track with tho old man In pursuit. Young Qulnn followed the old man, a few feet be hind. They had gone only a short dis tance when young Qulnn hurled a stone at Joe Gallagher, It struck the old man, who was between them, and Outing flannel skirt patterns Extraordinary offer for Friday of five hundred good quality outing flannel pat terns, with crochet edge, never sold for less than 25c in any other store in the United States.
