IT'S THE TIME TO PAINT.

The fall is the season when all CON
ditions are ideal for painting. The
experience of all mechanics and
house builders is that fall painting
proves more satisfactory than at any
other season of the year. The rea-
sons are very apparent for this state
ment in this climate. Very few paints
stand the best of the summer sun,
which as a rule blisters and discolors
when exposed to great heat. This
condition makes it necessary to use
a paint that is absolutely sunproof
which as matter of fact, would give
even better results if used in the
fan instead of the spring of the year
Patton Sunproof Paint, sold by Cclson
Hardware Co. is very highly endorsed
| by expert painters who have used it
This paint Is sold under an absolute
guarantee to be sunproof and will
stand the test of all climatic condi-
tions.

PROSECUTION RUNS
AGAINST SNAG IN
ADAMS CASE
SEIZURE BY POLICE OF FAKE
MARRIAGE LICENSE AND GER
TIFicATE-coURT MAY BAR
THEM AS EVIDENCE.

The prosecution struck a snag Tues
day morning in the trial OF John A.
Adams, alias DR.. Anton Weichers,
charged with drawing pretty Rosa
Rentz. OF Louisville, KY, into a fake
marriage. when Attorneys Navin and
Sneehan. for the defense. objected to
the introduction OF the fake marriage
license and take certificates on con-
stitutional grounds. The case prac-
tically hinges on these exhibits. and
If they are ruled out II may seriously
cripple the prosecution, though the
jury has already seen them.
And here arises another interest
ing situation. When introduced by the
prosecution. Monday afternoon, Judge

and they were passed around for the
individual inspection OF the jurors and
made a part of the record. Tuesday
morning, when Prosecutor Van Zile
again sought 10 introduce them, i'll
connection with the testimony OF for
mer Marriage License Clerk Walter
Malotte, the defense again objected,
and in support Of his~Position Attor-
ney Navin cited two federal cases in
which IL was held that, TO deprive a
person charged with crime of his pri-
vate papers without due process OF
law Is a violation OF the fourth and
fifth amendments to the federal con-
stitutiOn.
In the long arguments that follow
ed Judge Connolly was inclined to re-
cede from the position he first took
and finally ordered an adjournment
until Wednesday morning so that he
might read up on the question fully.
The main question now in issue. how
ever. is not so much the right OF the
police TO take the papers from Adams
as the prosecutions right to introduce
them, now that they are in It's posses
sion and are really part of the case.
Should the judge rule against the
prosecution on this point he would
have to instruct the jury, which al
ready knows the contents of the pa
pers. to disregard them. But in the
event OF conviction. In spite OF rul-
ing adverse to the prosecution, the de-
Tense would have ground for an ap-
peal on the ground OF error by vir.

Prosecutor Van Zile argued that
the papers could not be construed as
Adams private property. From the
very nature of them, he contended.
they were as much the property Of
Rosa Rentz, as they were of Adams,
and the mere fact that he locked them
in trunk. which the police later broke
into. did not make them private. He
made the point that they ewere. In fact,
