liquor in his saloon at 5o1-S South Eleventh

wear her husband has by reason of excessive
Indulgence in liquor been totally inca
pacitated for business of any kind and that
prior to being so dragged down by drink
he earned $1,000 per year and supported his
family nicely.
1t is set forth that Richardson was for
many months a frequenter of Bons' saloon
and that for some time before he became
unable to work he squandered all OF his
money for liquor, giving Bons a monopoly
of his trade. Mrs. Richardson further says
that by reason of her husbands drinking the
family has been reduced to absolute want
and that it has been forced to accept charity

cations except that Bons conducts saloon

A stranger dropping into Judge Bakers
court room might easily be impressed that
he had struck a medical convention for
the atmosphere is laden with anatomical
names seldom heard outside OF a doctors
concave This is due to the fact that nu-
merous medical men are witnesses in the
case of Charles Moore, who is on trial for
killing John DeMollins.
Among those who have testified are Drs.
Summers Ralph, Borglund and Wilson, and
others are to come. 1t is alleged that Moore
killed DeMollns by beating him over the
head with his fists or by knocking him down
so that his head came in contact with the
curbstone. The doctors are giving minute
descriptions of the injury as they viewed 1t
when the dying victim was taken to Clark
son hospital. Regardless Of what part
Moore played in the tragedy, it is admit

the defense is attempting to show that the
rupture may have been caused by disease
of long standing rather than by the blows
