has come to the surface. Fred is an
inventor He has just invented an

the authorities put an end TO such
scenes? 1t seems wrong that such a
condition Of things be allowed in the
face of the expressed will of the people
as shown by the vote on the question

The following is what the Detroit
Evening Ne,cS says regarding the plea
of one of Alma's prominent attorney 5
Jas. l.. Clark. who was engaged 10y the
citizens of Ithaca to defend Ella Clark.
in Detroit's police court: james l..
! Clark, the attorney sent by the citizens
of Ithaca, made an eloquent appeal in
behalf of the girl. In fact there have
been few attorneys in the police court
who made so good an impression as he
did. In order to sustain charge of
murder it must be proven that the act
was done with deliberation. That, he
said, had not been shown i'm Elias case.
