the increase would not be granted, and strike

dered, a year ago, Pat Graves, a careless,
good natured street-car driver. was arrested for
the cri me- He easily proved his innocense, and
was discharged. Then WHEELER, rich, old
and queer, was charged with the murder.
He, too, was discharged. Graves then
sued Whellere for 1925 900 damages. The case
attracted widespread attention and several of
the best known lawyers in Ohio became inter
ested in it. When the day of trial came the
lawyers for WHEELER surprised the lawyers for
Graves by presenting a receipt signed by
Graves, showing that he had settled the case
for ST, 500. There wild time then among
sthe lawyers whose hope of fee
seemed blasted. To-day the attorneys
mat to enter settlement the court
records. In the midst Of proceedings Gravess
lawyerepresentsd affidavit declaring that he
had no recollection of settlement being made
and asserting that If there was a settlement ne

Wheller's attorneys surprised, and the
Judge put the case until he could look into
it. The affair has caused genuine sensation,
and there is a rumor that the Cleveland bar will
investigate the matter.

Dat sowing is the topic of the day.
There seems be more farmers than
usual sowing oats this spring. Oats
have been better paying crop than
wheat for the last few years, owing
to the very low price of wheat. II
farmers don't get better price for
wheat in the future than they have
been getting in the past they will
have to quit sowing wheat and turn
their attention to something there is
more money in.
