two hundred and forty acre farm with
in twenty-five miles of Kansas City.
He began to raise early lambs and met
with unusual success from the very first.

First, l am not dead but more alive
than l have been for two or three years.
Second, ain not aware that / have
had smallpox. The doctor who attend
cd me was an old smallpox doctor, and
pronounced it chickenpox. Whatever
the infection, it was in light form. You
would almost need magnifying glass
now TO see any marks from it at all.
Third, l was exposed to the chicken
pox at Milford central and not at Jasper
as the Lamar Democrat states, among
its several errors.
Fourth, l was never guaranteed and
OF course broke no quarantine. Others
who were quarantined were well before
that act took place. They we're the
victims OF prejudice.
Although no injury has come to me ]
am convinced that got. out too soon.

just and right. 1t should be strictly
observed. 1t is better for all oncerned

TRIAL BOARD HEARS
CASE OF PATROLMAN
Evidence Reviewed In Hearing oil
Policeman Asking for Reinstate-
ment--kern and Broadhead
Suopoenaed

William Mellon, dismissed by the old
police commission on charges preferred
by Captain e. P. Thorn, former patrol
man, who has asked reinstatement of
the new police commission, was on
trial before the commission last night.
and from some of the evidence given it
appeared the police commission might
reverse the finding of the old commits
sion and possibly reinstate the former
patrolman.
Subpoenas issued on behalf of Mellon
brought Edward Kern. former chief
of police, from his hiding place, and
also Thomas Broadhead, former police
captain, but who was suspended on
account of an indictment found against
him by the grand jury. These two were
not satisfactory witnesses because they
did not fully sustain Melons conten-
ton that they knew what he was do
ing when he committed the act for
which he was discharged Mellon Is
accused of using a young man as q
decoy to catch a low class of GRIM
inals.
Sergeant Sebastian gave Mellon a
good reputati ton with the police COM
mission for important work he had per-
formed in Chinatown in gambling
raids, and declared he had nothing
personal against Mellon, although
Mellon had said some unkind things
about him.
Prosecutor Guy Eddie was the most
important witness for Mellon. His tes-
timony was to the effect that Mellon
had done nothing that other officers
of the department had not done, and
that, in fact he was following what
has come to be a regular custom of
the department. The age of the young
man used as a decoy figures very
largely, as he was but II years old.
The case was taken under advise
ment,
