COURT AFFIRMS
 CEO.DAL.E CASE

The supreme court yesterday affirmed the case of the state against Geo. Dale, who was convicted in the Faulkner circuit court of sell ing whiskey in this county. Dale claimed that he did not own or sell the whiskey nor have any in terest therein; that one Starrett de- sired to purchase some whlskey from a party called Shortie, who was in Dale's employ, and, not having the money, he (Dale) agreed to stand good to Shortie for it.
 The court held it is we'll settled that where there IS no statuet against the purchase of whiskey, one who assists the purchaser Ill buying the whiskey and co1hres his participation in the transaction exclusively to the buying and not to the selling, is not guilty ot any offense. But the state does not tolerate any devise whatsoever. There ore where one rrocures or assists in procuring a purchaser, or stands by and assists the seller i'll making a sale or assists both seller and buyer to make a sale that could not be made without his aid, then he is a particeps criminis, and may be punished as a principal offender.

lCARL BADER SHOWS HIS PRO- GRESSIVENESS.

In walking through Carl Bader's grocery and meat market, the other day, we were very much impressed by a new machine, which he has just received. It is an American Slicing Machine and seemed to us to work with more than human accur- acy and speed and almost human in telligence. The machine-a very handsomely nickeled and enameled affair-is designed for cutting ham, bacon, dried heef, sausage, pork loin, etc., automatically. It does away with almost all handling of the meat. It was almost fascinating to stand by and watch the machine cutting off even slices as fast as a boy could turn the handle on the power wheel, all the slices of just the same thick
