had not gone to the jury at noon to-
day, but probably will so this after.
noon.
Mrs Stehr was on the stand all the
morning. Yesterday afternoon Henry
Stehr, the defendant, occupied the
stand and the general impression of
those in the courtroom was that his
story weakened the case The manner
of his telling the story, answering
questions only when prompted by At
torney Barnhart, indicated his un-
truthfulness.
Stehr said he was &c years old and
had married Minnie Lucon, April g.,
1909, at Hamburg, Germany, when
Kaurt Stehr was not quite years
old. He came to America and lived
at the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs
Bankrath, seven months, until his
wife and child followed him. He stat
ed he had whipped Kaurt with a strap
taken from an old harness several
times for bedwetting. 1t was this
habit of the childs that made Stehr
want Kaurt to stay in Germany, he
said. He denied making threats
against the child in case Kaurt should
be brought to America, as Mrs. Bank.
rath had testified. He said he enter
tanned no i'll will against the child,
and denied striking him with an iron
rod Intentionally, insisting it was an
accident
Says Feet Were Diseased.
He said the childs feet were dis
eased and had been treated in Ger
many by doctor. He denied having
been arrested in Germany for ill
treating the child, but admitted he
had been called into police court on
complaint of a woman for investiga-
ton in this connection.
He explained to the jury that he
had bandaged the child for a disease,
causing marks on the stomach and
hips. He explained the mark on the
eye by stating the child had fallen

terror of the Stehr home and an exact
model of the child's bed were intro

Stehr said on Monday proceeding
the amputation he had a half bushel
of coal and $3.50 in cash and was out
of a job. Asked why he had failed to
call a physician earlier, he said he
had no money.
ChiId's Feet Frozen.
He said the child's feet were frozen
during the blizzard of Jan. |. He was
awakened in the night and found the
walls of the room white with frost
and snow, the boys bedding being
| frozen stiff. He arose, changed the
boys bedding, put a dry cover over
him, covered his feet and went back
to bed. The next morning he found
much snow in the house and the boy
complained that his feet hurt Cat an
other point Stehr had said the boy did
not complain about his feet until
about five days later
Put Feet in Hot Water.
He put the child's feet in hot wa
ter and later put vaseline on them.
Stehr said he first called DR.. Pill
ger. Later the same day he called
DR.. Verges, who administered appli-
cations and later returned with DR..
Tashjean. Then County Commission
er Burr Taft came. Next day, assist
ed by Loebus, Stehr took the boy to
the Klentz home and never saw the
little fellow afterward. Two days
later he was arrested. He was not
advised of the death or the funeral.

NO TREATY WITH LAST YANA.
Government Will Merely Look After
Last of the Nogi.

Washington, Sept. 14-No treaty will
be made between the United States
government and the only surviving
member of the Yana, or Nogi tribe Of
Indians, who was discovered near Orc
VILE. Cal. about week ago in a
starved, wild condition
Indian officials here smiled today at
reports. that as the government never
bad made a treaty with the Yanas, it
might be necessary to negotiate one
with the sole survivor. It was pointed
out that it has not been the policy for
years past to make treaties with the
Indians, this method of dealing with
them being a thing of the past and
that as congress had disapproved of
the general principle of treaty making
with the Indians it would not be like
~ to approve of one with the Yana.
He will be taken care of, however, Of
f1eials said. His present welfare, ac-
cording to their reports, is being looked
after by the University of California
anthropological department, which is
studying his language and characters
ties. An Indian who spoke some Yana
was found and in his care the Indian
bureau probably viii decide to place
the last of the Yanas.

NAVY BUILDING PROGRESSES.
Florida Nearly Finished and Other
Craft Under Way.

Washington, Sept 14-The work of
construction of the five big dread
noughts now being built for the navy
made good headway last month. The
Wyoming, at Cramps yard. advanced
from 7O8 to 77.5 per cent of compile
ton and the Newport News builders
brought the Texas along from 24.S to
80 per cent. The New York navy
yard advanced the condition Of the bat
tIeship New York from rs to As,
probably in the matter of assemblage
of material, and at the same time car
ried the battleship Florida forward
half per cent.
This comparatively slow record is
explained by the fact that very little
work remains to be done on the ship,
which now stands at 98.6 per cent The
New York Shipbuilding company
brought the percentage of the Arkan-
sas up from 71.3 to 1928.
Only seven of the fifteen torpedo
destroyers now under contract showed
any advancem ent during August. But
a good deal of progress has been made
in the construction of these seventeen
submarine boats now building. Prac-
tically no work has been done upon
the two sea-going tugs and the five
Golfers now on the stocks.

OTTAWA GIRLS MARRY YOUNG.
One of Every S5 of school Age Has
Husband.

ottawa, kan. Sept. 14.-One out of
every thirty-five young Ottawans of
school age-between 5 and 20 years
is married
This is the status as discovered by
Prof A. L. Bell in his recent canvass
of the city for school statistics. Here
are the statistics.
That girls marry at younger ages
than boys is easily apparent. Prof.
Bell found ten boys of school age mar
ried, the youngest being s years old.
For every boy of school age he found
six girls married. The youngest of
these was IA, while two IS years old
were married.

Seven Escaped.

Columbus o., Aug. 2S.--By saving
corridor cell and window bars seven
prisoners escaped from the city prisl
on today. This is the biggest Jail
delivery in the history of the city
bastle.
With one exception all of the men
who escaped were under thirty years
of age, the oldest being William
Beatty. forty, of Columbus. The
others who got away were: Max Nc

have been implicated in an attempt
ed iail delivery at Newark some time

Paul Blake. vagrancy Roy Badger,

II is believed the leader in the
escape had aid from the outside. The
manner I'm which the bar at the OUT
er window was sawed leads to the
belief that theworlS was done from
the outside OF the building.
The escapes brought to light the
fact that Fred Davis, charged with
vagrancy, escaped August 4 and his
absence was not discovered for two
days.
The police made elghty-nine ar
