WOLTER TRIAL

Prospects Are That 1t May Go Into
Next Week-state May Conclude
It's Side Today.
(Ry Associated Press.A

New York, April 22.-It was prom
ised when the trial for Albert Wolter
for attacking Ruth Wheeler and
strangling and burning her to death
was resumed yesterday, that the prose
cution would complete it's case by to-
morrow at the latest.
VOTERS defense could then hardly
be put in before adjournment over
to next week, and the probability is
that the case can be finished before
Tuesday But even in that case, the
trial would go on record as the speed
lest of any notable criminal hearing
in New York in many years. Almost
the entire gamut of sensation was
run at yesterdays session of the trial

The smallest musical instruments in
the world are the pigeon whistles of
Pekin. They are made of thinnest
bamboo and tiny gourds scraped to pa
per-like delicacy and fastened beneath
the tail feathers of the carrier pi-
geons. AS the birds fly through the
air these Instruments emit a weird
aeolian melody Ike the harps of fairy
land. Every morning and afternoon
the vault of Pekin's sky is swept by
these sweet. mournfu notes as the
birds fly to and fro. carrying messages
to the bankers, the merchants. the law
yers, invitations. letters, stock quota
tons, a system older than the teie-
graph or telephone or the oldest letter
service, as old as time itself. There
are some twenty different kinds of
pigeon whistles. some of them simple
bamboo tubes with but one top and
some as deliberately constructed as
miniature organ pipes. They are all
of featherweight lightness and when
held in the hand and swept through
the air emit the same delicate whis-
Ting notes as when borne through the
upper atmosphere by the carrier pi-
geonS.

Cemeteries Where Women Gossip.

anecdote:
''In my frequent quarrels with my

Ito to judge between us. One day
when we had had more than usually
violent dispute at Chigasaki the prince
came in unexpectedly, and asked
him to decide the question. But he
declined, while proposing the follow
