ney finished direct accusation that the
appellate justices shirked their duty.
II realize the position of the appellate

work. The justices deny petitions and
writs offhand in order to have the ques-
tions taken before the supreme court
Three attorneys who were inside the
incIosure were on their feet in an in
stant anxious to reply.
If you entertain such opinions of the
higher courts Of this state" said Judge
Waste, you are unfit TO practice law
and there must be something radically
wrong in your makeup. I never heard
such an opinion passed in a courtroom" "

would make good husband for Miss
Boehmer.
In the course of his testimony Brandt
said:
ADDICTED TO DRUGS
Miss Boehmer was addicted to the
use of drugs, which she took to make
her sleep and also, I think. to relieve
her mental and physical sufferings. She
was never in strong health and occa-
sionally talked of suicide, but [ would
pay no attention to what she said
while she was in those moods, as | did
not believe that she meant what she
said. Miss Boehmer was a native of
Preston, Canada, and was "a years of
age,
Edward B. Lada testified that he had
known Miss Boehmer for three years.
She worked for me as a book keeper
for a time said Lada and appeared
to take an unusual interest in me.
My attitude toward the girl was
that of brother, friend and adviser.
| scolded her several times for persist
ing in her loving attitude toward me.
but l do not think that anything l may
then have said caused her to become
respondent. Miss Boehmer was at
times very melancholy and was, 1 un-
derstand, given to the use Of NOR
phine."
JURORS SAY SUICIDE
Henry Joyaux. an embalmer testified
