when the TIMES went to press.
Mr. Griffith is nervous, hesitating,

The defense seem to be endeavoring
to prove that Griffith bought the
stolen warrants for joint account of

as yet, made no statement of their
case.
The courtroom was crowded with
spectators.

We came to this Bahia province, in which the
Oldest mines are located. with the firm intention
OF finding ouJ all about il for ourselves-of pill
grimaging to far diamond fields and even of
poking our own inqui-itiye fingers into the dirt
and pulling out precious stones. a. little Jack
Horner pulled plums from his pie. Rio de

LIVES SACRIFICED IN THE WORN

to be true-that hundreds of thousands of lives
have been sacrificed to diamond mining in
Brazil; for in This part of the world Dame

From the Detroit Free Press
When the Old Soldier Club had been called to
order by the veteran he announced that Corp.
Buckskin, whose real name was Boosgene,
would narrate one Of his experiences-that ex-
.perience, in fact, which had made him COR
poral.
The corporal blushingly pulled the soap box
he was sitting on out in The middle Of the floor
and began:

he said, lone day whom thsre wasn't much go
pleasant while 1t lasted. The enemy had punched

up twenty-pound smooth-bore gun and
thought We would have some fun dislodging
them. There was Q small frame house not
more than 200 yards away snd We tried 70
get behind 1t, but We couldn't reach 1t and
they couldn't. We got the gun in position
in some bushes, with . low heavy tree right
over it, and blazed away once without much
damage, and while We were loading the second
time, thinking We bad IL all our own way, they
made . rush, about hfty Of them, and got into
the house Then they opened on us, and though

they didn't make it % bot for us we
had to skedsddle. That d TO say, every
body did but me. and I went up the

was no hslp for IL; was freed and NOTHING

we're in the house, and our fsllows were

for night to come on or for something
