THAW TRIAL JUDGE

Victor j. Dowing justice of the supreme court
of New York, who is sitting trial judge in the
Thaw murder case, is of those judges who be-
lieve in deciding every question it arises,
promptly and definitely. and allowing criticism
of his ruling afterwards. At the last Thaw trial
Justice Fitzgerald allowed the lawyers the
fullest latitude in arguing every little point of
law, and after he had decided the point would
permit them to carry another long drawn-out
debate. This is thing that Justice Bowling has
never been known to tolerate. He holds the
record for the shortest murder trial in New York.
By holding the attorneys down to the case and
excluding all extraneous matters he had verdict
in 40 minutes from the time the was started.

SEEKS SOUTH POLE

Lieut. e. H. Shackleton NJ. v. o. the young
British officer, introduced several Innovations
when he started for the south pole with an Eng

he went practically without vegetables, It being
found that they do not keep well and carried only
the best of meats. He will use a specially built
automobile for the earlier stages of the journey
and, instead of relying on dogs for the final dash
over the snow and ice. he will rely mainly on the
hardy little Siberian pony.
