es of illness were given attention dp Ing those three months
 While the Charity Committee does not expect to be able to furnish enl ployment for all who are looking for work. and apply to the assistant sec. retary. yet temporary employment has been furnished in a number of cases, and the assistan. secretary Is always glad to be notifi sd O. any who are out of employment and anxious to work
 Five children who were ia need of temporary homes are being wei cared for through the efforts of the committed, and at sm-h expense through the kindness of so1ne ladies who have been -nling to take them E.: tneir homes and care for them temporarily. In a few cases where the committee has given help the amounts have been refunded, which has enabled us to keep d balance cn hand for use in case of emergency.
 The committee appreciates the kindness of all who have assisted in the work il any way. including the country doctors who hlve always been willing to attend to any cases of sickness when called upon, also Mir Philbrook and the school board who have furnished office room free of charge, as well as the B. l. com pany for free phone. and the ladies who have helped in many ways, all of which enables us to carry on the work at much less expense
 Very few tmnsients have applied to the committee for help during the last three months. The assistant sec retary has had variety of duties to attend to. such as settling family difficulties and many other matters that the public are never aware Of so tfht the amount of money pa ] out on cases is only a small part of the work sometimes.
 The committee will soon need fur. ther supply of clothing for the fa'l and winter months.

No JURY YET
TO TRY MRS.
JOHNSON

Forty veniremen have been ex-
amined by the state attorney and
counsel for the defense in the case
of Mrs. Belle johnson, now on
trial for murder and jury has
not yet been secured.
There seems to be persistent
effort made by every prospect to
avoid the duty of sitting ON case
in which a woman is involved.
Several of the men called this
morning professed to having an
opinion of the merits of the case,
and so decided were they that i'm
their opinions, fair ard impar-
tial trial couldo not be rendered.
In each case it, appears that the
sympathy of the venireman is with
the woman.
John Oslund caused fiutter of
amusement i'm the court room
when he announced that he had
not had time to read the papers
except what runs across the top
of the page and not what runs up
and down."
1t is likely that twelve eatisfac-
tory men will have been chosen
when court adiourns tonight, and
the taking of testimony will be
started early tomorrow.

Nurse Confesses and
Doctor Is Charged
With Murder

Idence. 1t is doubly strong, they
say, because it not only charges
the physician with performing the
operating that caused the girls
death, but shows that DR.. Thomp-
son knew ten days before her
death that she could not survive
and that he made preparations for
the disposition of the body several
days before death occurred.
Miss Messerschmidt' confess
sion was obtained after 1T had
been despaired of. She broke
down when shown a photograph
of her mother, now dead, and the
confession followed. Miss Messer-
schmidt blamed Paul Parker for
the girls condition, according to
the police. Parker is kept under
surveillance.
