Asked how she remembered that Nicholson was tho man, she 'she had sold him the tickets. Then Attorney Higbee ever smile, wanted to know to else she sold tickets on that evening, and from that time on there was aJlvoly scene enacted. The color of the hair, the hats worn and down to'- the color' of the oyes was asked 'her. She became visibly excited and over her examination, but the 'attorney was relentless. Mr.

Wallace Interposed and said a the 'attorney was trying to get her excited. Higbee told Wallace to 'miiid'his own he was pro- ceeding.withln the limits of the law.
