The taking of testimony in the suit
began in May, 1905 and continued over
a year. Judge Theodore Brace of Paris,
Mo, was the special commissioner ap-
pointed by the state supreme court to
take the testimony in the case. The

torney general. The testimony in the
case covered 1000 typewriter pages.

The MurderOus Hatpin

In nearly every state and in most large cities efforts have been made to pass laws against the use of long hatpins. The fatalities from these instruments have been many and serious. They have put out eyes, scratched faces, made dangerous wounds, an d added new terror to life. The inclination has been to ridicule any effrt to regulate them, because fair woman is supposed to be al- lowed to do anything or to wear anything that fashion may impose upon her. But this is a real ter TOT, and it is to be regretted that solemn reformers have not been able to handle 1t with better re- suits. In Prussia they do things more successfully. The mana gers of the railways have ordered their officials to request women wearing these weapons to remove them, and if they refuse they shall not be permitted to ride on trains, and shall be compelled to leave the station. Moreover, the hat pin wearers will be liable to fines. Those who have travelled in Prus- sia have no desire to see all their laws transferred to the United States, but it might be well to have a few Prussian officials handle the hatpin problem for us.-The World About Us," in The Ladies' World for September.
