With the lips OF the principals clos

Il am confident OF being acquitted

| am very much impressed with the
jury and think tnat when they weigi
the evidence in the case that they
will render verdict Of not guilty.
This was the statement made at
the close Of yesterdays trial by John
Holpp on trial for killing william
Roberts. his brother-in.law, to lis at
ternoy. The hTtsouer seems to be the
most unconcerned person at tae trial
as to the verdict the Jury will render,
but ne keeps in close touch with all
the evidence submitted by both sides
and talks great portion Of the time
with his attorneys.
The defense is basIng Its ~ Sc on
the evidence Of the prominent citizens
of Middlebourne. and TYLER ;sountv.
who are testifying to Holpp's good
character and to the dangerous char.
acter of the murdered man and to tie
threats that Roberts made against
Holpp. on the plea OF self defense
the defense hopes to secure a verdict
of "1ot guilty"
r, w. Wilson was placed c, the
stand by the defense yesterday after.
noon and ststed that he found the ra.
zor that Holpp said he tnrew over the
hill at Minnie. Wilson produced the
razor with which Holpp alleged that
Roberts attempted to kill. 1t was
offered in evidence by the defendants
attorneys.
Several witnesses were examined by
the defense during the day, all being
prominent residents of this county by
which the defense proved the good
character Of tne accused and the bad
and dangerous character of the dead
man.

Every mother of sons ought to keep
an accident box containing a spool
of adhesive plaster, a package of car
bolated cotton, bottle of boracic acid
and some soft old linen. A fresh cut
should be carefully bathed immediate
ly and bandaged to keep out the dirt,
which so often contains germs of lock-
jaw If there is much bleeding, first
close the wound with the plaster, then
cover it with the cotton. An applica-
ton OF alcohol will easily remove the

DIFFERENCE IN THEIR VIEWS

difference between farmin' out west an

Uncle 81 Eggmann to the cronies
around the stove at the Crossroads
store, on his return from a visit to
his brother in Dakota. Now, out thar
in the west they don't think they've
really got farm unless it totals about
three or four thousand acres; an if
they air raisin' stock they speak o.
5000 head as bein' 1eetle bunch O.
cattle An takes 'em bout half a
day to hoe one row O. corn, the rows
air SO long, an they harvest corn an
wheat enough on one farm to fill our
town hall. Now, that's a leetle diff
trent from what it is here in New
England, where we call 20 acres O.
ground-a fourth of it graveyard-a
couple O. dozen hens an rooster, six
or eight keows, an ROBBERY patch,

Few Changes in Sanitary CON-
Few changes will be made in the rules
and regulations of the livestock sani-
tary commission this year. J. H. Mer-
Ger, commissioner, is now drawing up
the rules and regulations and states
that all of the changes to be made
will be of a minor nature. He states
that there will be a few changes in
the regulations regarding Texas fever
and a few changes in the quarantine
regulations for mango, in the western
part of the state. He will attempt to
formulate rules which will aid in
cleaning up the mango in western
Kansas, the only section in which 1t
exists. He is trying to take all the
counties out of the quarantine dis
trict. Four or five have already been
taken out this year and several more
will be removed the first of the year.
Mr.. Mercer believes that in two
years there will be no quarantine dis
trict in the state, so far as mango is
concerned.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great
er strength than other makes.

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much of
their attractiveness to the way they
are Numbered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory if proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the

about the same age.

when he had hauled them on, attack

treatment?'

thought what would happen to him
