Not Known Yet whether Or MOI
Bitler Will be Put on the
, Witness Staud-lury
Completed Wed
nesday After
noon.

The Bitler murder trial, which was
70 this county from Kiowa
for trial, began in the district court
here Monday morning. The arst
two days, and over half Of yesterday
was consumed in getting q jury. The
nature Of the crime is such that .
GOOD many might feel . hesitancy. i
on a Jury. in voting for q conviction
on purely circumstantial evidence.
And when a juror in such a case is
questioned on this point it is pro
babIy more than equal chances he
will grow doubtful on this question
and fail to qualify. Samuel Bitter
the young man who is on trial for
the murder Of Mrs. Rosenberger, in
Kiowa county, last May, was brought
from Hutchinson the preceding day.
In height Bitler is something OF q
giant, being about Six feet and seven !.
inches. He has q somewhat duii
appearance in general, as he sits 10
the court room, but occasionally
when something particularly interes. =
him, his appearance changes quickly
and his face takes on an expression
Of keeness. His parents sit BY hin
in the court room. and some Of tn
time his mothers hand rests upol
his shoulder. and whom she looks q
him, II is always with confidence.

STREETS OF HOLLYWOOD
RETAIN GALA DAY ATTIRE
1t Is Thought That Festivities Were
as Successful Financially as
other Ways

HOLLYWOOD, May 2.-After the
most strenuous week of its history,
Hollywood has settled down to ordinary
everyday life. The residents feel a
little the worse for wear, but are
buoyed up by the success of their
undertakings.
Few of the decorations have been
taken down, and the gala day attire
reminds the passersby of the gay time
of the previous week. Numerous deco
rated autos and vehicles were seen on
the streets today in remarkably fine
shape, considering the long time which
the flowers have been on them. Par
ticularly noticeable among the autos
were Miss Mary Mullen's electric run
about and Miss Serbia Jones pony
cart, which won the first prize in that
section. Both of these looked as well
today as when they captured the
prizes.
The auditing committee has not
checked up the receipts and expendi-
lures of the Hollywood club and the
Woman's club for the week, so that the
state of the finances is not known at
this time. This will be done tomorrow,
after which a report will be given.
From present indications it seems al
most a certainty that enough was
made to finance the show and fitting
tournament next year. The flower
show proved to be a great success,
financially, as well as in other ways. 1t
is estimated that about $2500 was taken
in at the fitting tournament.
