Dodgen made this declaration Wednesday afternoon while on trial In Justice Klngsherry's court.

Jordan, who sat onjy a few feet away, and who was proeocutlng Judge Dodgen on the charge of pointing a pistol at him. As the justice made the charge from the witness stand that Jordan had either killed his son or knew who com mitted the crime, the former bailiff never winced. After hearing the evidence, Judge Ktngsberry dismissed the case. Judge Dodgen Is still under the peace bond, required under a warrant sworn out by Jordan.

Jordan was In the house at the time the fatal shot was fired at Dodgen thrqugh a closed door, and was arrest ed, together with several women. lie and the women, however, were later released and the tragedy has remained a mystery. Judge Dodgen hod ordered Jordan to stny out of his private office, he says, and a few days ago, when Jordan en tered the office, the justice made an attempt to get hold of a pistol and shoot him. He declares he will not harm Jordan so long at he keeps out of his office, but says he must not come In there and tantalise him with his presence, — amners renres I represented Lot 479 $4.00 Stylish Footwear Here’s a Ladies’ Shoe, that has style to burn—made of light soft dull calf-skin with flexible welt soles—pointed toes —Cuban heels — short vamps—it will wear better and easier than most shoes, and protect your feet from the cold, wet ground. • if you live out of town write fori Come and try on a pair.
