Adams and Douglas ap peared for the prosecution and Col. John A. Barrlnger represented the de fendants. The prosecution put four witnesses on the stand, and from the evidence it was learned that the crime was committed on Tuesday afternoou, July 23th, during the absence of the parents of the little girl. The father was at work at the steel and iron fur nace and the mother was attending the summer school at the colored Ag ricultural and Mechanical College, From the testimony it seemed that there was a conspiracy on the part of the three boys, as Rankin and Clapp watched the house while Austin com- mlted the ci!me. The defense put no witnesses on the stand, and after the hearing, which consumed about one m hour, Esquire Pritchett committed the , defendants to jail to await the action of the grand jury at the August term of court. r' ! 4 1 1 V;
