Six college chums at Harvard ten
years ago formed themselves into a
matrimonial trust, agreeing with one
another that as each man was mar
rfed he would deposit with the presi-
dent of the club $50. The last man to
fall a victim to Cupid's dart was to
receive the total contributed by the
other five, with the interest accumlat-
ed. Recently the announcement was
made that the prize would go to Nell
son C. Metcalf, whose engagement be-
came known few weeks ago He will
receive more than $500 as a wedding
gift. Roger Upton was the first of the
six to be married. He was graduated in
1898, and was married the next year.
Roland Hopkins, son of President Hop
kins of the Boston Ice Company, and a
member of the class of 1899, was the
second man to forSake the ranks of the
bachelors. He was married in 1901.
Then come Charles E Whiting the
third victim of the matrimonial lottery
He was a member of the class of 1897,
and was married in 1902. Ben E. Burns
then special student at Harvard. was
president of the club. He was the
fourth. Roy s. Goodrich, graduate of
the academic department in 1898 and
of the Law School in 1901, was the fifth

year will pay for the board, clothing
and tuition of a student in the lower
classes of an Oriental Christian coll
lege. If the hundreds of thousands of
Christians who could without sacrifice
educate one student year could be
induced to contribute money for this
purpose, what an impetus would be
given to the cause of Christianity
throughout the Orient!
And who will measure the beneficent
influence of money thus spent when we
remember what has been accomplished
by one trained mind directed by a high
and holy purpose? Who will set limits
to the good that may be done by these
Orientals who are preparing them
selves for larger work under the in
struction of American missionaries and
teachers?
Making due allowance for the frailty
of human nature and for the mistakes
which all are liable to make it may
be said without fear of successful con-
tradiction that the missionaries. physi-
clans and teachers who consecrate
themselves to the advancement of
Asia's millions along Christian lines are
as high minded, as heroic, as self
sacrificing, and, considering the great
destiny of the race, as useful as any
equal number of men and women to be
found in any other part of the world.

an
Evidence agains t him
was not sufficient to
warrant a conviction
--outcome very un-
popular.
Frank Guthrie is a free man.

Frank Guthrie is free man.
The case against him for killing his
brother Ed. at Overly on November
Gath, terminated suddenly Tuesday af
ternoon when Judge Goss advised the
jury to bring in verdict Of not
guilty In the opinion of the court
the evidence against Guthrie was not
sufficient to sustain a verdict of guilty
if the jury should so decide. A verdict
conforming to the courts advice was
signed by the foreman of the jury and
Frank Guthrie, who had killed his
brother few months ago, stepped out
of the court room free man.
The case lasted the greater part Of
five days. Several witnesses testified,
besides those mentioned in last week s
'Courant, but the testimony was along
the same line.
Drs. johnson of this city and Hall
dorson of ,Souris. gave expert testi-
mony in behalf of the state and Drs.
Mckay of this city and Casavaw of
Overly, were called by the defense.
Their evidence conflicted to some ex-
tent in regard to the number of blows
that caused the fracture in the skull
of the deceased, but this did not mat
.erially affect the case. There were no
eye witnesses to the crime and Guth-
rie testified himself that he did it in
self defense. There was considerable
evidence to the effect that the victim
was intoxicated to the extent that he
was not as able to take care of himself
as sober man would on the day of
the tragedy. But there was also evil
dence to the effect that Ed. Guthrie
had slept and perhaps had partially
recovered from his drunken stupor at
: the time the row took place. There
was a lot of evidence introduced which
covered the same ground as that given
by the first witnesses introduced and
the case of the state was not strength
'ened any after the first days proceed
ings.
The outcome of the case is not a
popular one-the majority believing
that some punishment should be meted
out to Guthrie. No blame is attached
to anyone. 1t is one of those cases in
which large number of people be-
lieve that there was miscarriage of
Justice through lack of evidence. If
Guthrie felt any remorse he did not
exhibit any signs of it, hearing the
evidence and viewing the skull of his
deceased brother with minor interest.
if not indeed, with utter Indifference.
The case proved to be quite an ex-
pense to the county.

THE NORWOOD CASE.

When the Guthrie case terminated
the case of the State VS.. G.. N. Nor
wood was taken up. This case has
created fully as much interest as the
Guthrie case did on account of the
prominence of the interested parties.
Grant Trimble, is the complaining
witness. Both the defendant and Mr..
Trimble own large department stores
at Westhope and both are prominent
and popular. Last September Mr..
Trimble partially completed arrange
ments to turn his store over to syn
dicate composed Of a large number Of
farmers. About this time these farm
,ers received through the mails an
anonymous circular describing the ex-
perience Of cooperative store in q
northwestern town. The scheme was
portrayed in anything but favorable
way. Trimble's deal with the farmers
fell through and he blames this cir
,cular for the failure. ALI the promi-
nent business men in Westhope and
several farmers in the vicinity have
been summoned as witnesses. About
half Of them have given testimony.
