CEISTIE' STORY OF THE HUBDER. Continued from page 1. 0 rt 7 fTI hi Printing From Celluloid. Italian publishers and newspaper proprietors are seriously interesting themselves in a new process of printing, for which important claims are made, says the Roman Tribune. The Genoese firm of Bacigalupi has acquired all rights in the new process, and a few days since all the newspaper proprietors and leading printers of Milan assembled to witness a series of practical tests, which are ail described as having been perfectly satisfactory.

The invention consists in the substitution of celluloid for prep, arations of lead and antimony, and gives an admirable reproduction from all kinds of plates and blocks. 0 ED IE To Harness 'the Colorado. Arizona engineers regard the Grand Canyon of the Colorado as affording one of the greatest fields in existence for the development of electricity from water power. In addition to the immense power of the Colorado itself, large stores of energy are available in the summer streams that leap into the vast chasm. The plan by which the power of the main stream will, it is now thought, eventually be utilized is that of "picking up" the fall of the river by means of tunnels.

At a point about seventy miles north of Williams it is said that a fall of 5,000 feet can be found in a distance but little exceeding a mile. JLf il shot. I do not know what happened after that till I was in jail in Wichita. I was very excited and I don't know what I did. 1 drank two bottles of beer at Peck.

I intended killing my wife if I had got to her. I don't care what becomes of me because my life is a wreck anyway, but 1 had nothing against Pierce and did not kill him. I was not blaming him for anything and had no reason for wanting to kill him. I do not care what becomes of me, but I am getting the worst of it in the papers and I want the people to know what kind of a woman it was who has wreckedmy life." In telling the story Cristie was quite nervous and excited. He gives no evidence of having a diseased mind, and his memory is excellent.

Most of the above statements were made voluntarily and willingly. As to the killing he did not want to talk, but finally started in and told it through without hesitation. In further conversation with the reporter he said that it is his opinion that his wife was afraid that Pierce would tell what he knew about her, and was anxious to make him mad so that he would go and kill Pierce. In this way she would be rid of Cristie, as he be sent to the penitentiary, and Pierce ceuld not reveal her secret. Cristie is a very interesting man to talk to and his story is quite entertaining, although some of it may not seem rery plausible.

"I could not find her when 1 went back after her, but I found the letters and a lot of fine dresses and I cut them into ribbons.

She had tried to make me mad at her brother Ned, who has a geod deal of property. He was about to be married in the spring and she didn't want him to marry because she wanted his property. She told me that the rea-on she left me the first time was because Ned told her to, and one day she said that if I didn't have the nerve to get rid of him, if I would get her some arsenic she would get rid of the whole lot. I got it for her and it was in my coat when arrested. After her brother, Ned, was married they came to the kouse one day and she told me that if I would get the ax and hit Ned in the head, she would fix his wife.

Afterwards when I was talking to her and accusing her of intimacy with Ilines, she said that there was only one man in the world who had wronged me and he liredat Peck. Then she told me of Pierce. She said that he had come to the house one day and said that her husband wanted to see her at Peck ind he would haul her over. She went. The weather was cold and she complained.

He gave her a muffler, and she claimed that the muffler was so drugged that she became unconscious and knew nothing till she awoke in his hotel at Peck. She believed Pierce had ruined her. So when I went to Peck I went to ask him about it." THE STORY OF THE MURDER, "I told Pierce 1 wanted to go to Bishop's to see my wife. 'Oh, you're another one, are he said. I asked him what he meant by that.

He said that he had made trips for the husbands of Mrs. Cristie before. I had him drive me because I wanted to ask him about the story she had told me. He pretended to believe that I was not her husband and said that for several months a man had come to his hotel and told him that he was Mr. Cristie.

He said that his wife's folks did not like him and wanted Pierce to drive over and get her. This he would do after dark and take her home before daylight. I supposed he was her husband till the last time he was here, then he told ms different. We Revised Old Testament. We were camping at the seaside.

The older ones of the party -were much interested in the search for agates, and the children had come to feel that the finding of agates was the chief aim of our existence.
