Juror Crazy-New Jury.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 14.-Tired and
haggard as the result of lodging the
police for three days, Juror Waldron,
whose disappearance stopped the DR..
Hyde murder trial, reappeared at, bis
home today and asked his wife for
breakfast. He was arrested at once.
Waldron said he escaped because he
was worried over business affairs, and
homesickness. At II o'clock he was
brought to Judge Porterfield's court
and the judge began an examination
to determine whether the jury should
be discharged on account of Waldron's s
mental condition, as he is believed to
be insane.
Judge Porterfield dismissed the jury
on account of Waldron's mental inca
pacity. A retrial will probably be or
dered Immediately.

STATE ADMITS THAT
EVANS STOOD WELL

So strong was the evidence of the
good character of U. S. G. Evans in
the case against the Kendrick bank
er today that G. w. Tannahill, who is
assisting the prosecution, got up in
court and admitted that the defend
ants reputation was beyond question
until the alleged shortage in the bank S
accounts
Late last night, and until this after
noon witness after witness was put
on by the defense to prove this point.
At the same time many witnesses ad-
mitted that while they were personal
friends of Ed Atchison, the prosecut-
ing witness, his reputation in the COM
munity was generally questionable.
L. S. G. Evans, the defendant, is on
the stand under cross-examination as
the Star-Mirror goes to press. He de-
MED in toto the charges.
One striking feature of the tosti
mony was the direct contradiction by
witnesses for the defense of the testi
mony of Atchison, who declared that
he had never had access to the books
of the bank except some other re-

sponsible party was present. Emil
Russell, Henry Durbin and E. E. Alder
man all testified to seeing him alone
in the bank up to hours as late as l
o'clock in the morning, while Alder
man, fixing his testimony by his at
tendance at the Masonic lodge upon
a night when Atchison testified that
he was not in the bank, declared that
he had seen Atchison pay out $500 to
an unknown man that night, and fixed
the sum of money in question by a
quarrel over the sum between the two
parties.
One feature of Evans testimony was
to the effect that Atchison, who was
vice president of the bank, and was
also the manager of the Vollmer-
Clearwater Grain Co., had as such
manager, at one time borrowed 40 per
cent of the banks deposits. This, he
said, was not shown by the banks
books, but by the reports made to the
Vollmer bank at Lewiston. Evans
also showed by the bank books where
Atchison's account with the Kendrck
bank was overdrawn.

spection serious matter, and advis-
ed compulsory inspection of all meats
offered for sale. He said that it
should be either government or state
inspected, and wanted such action ta-
ken as would compel inspection. He
said that the matter was so serious
that it should arose the people.
"We welcome all inspection that will
give better protection to both the
butchers and the people" said Carl
Anderson today. eff the city can af-
ford it we should have an inspector
to look at every farm killed piece of
meat that is offered for sale in the
city. We applied for government in
srection a year ago, and an eXemp-
tion order was issued since tha: time
We are subject to government inspec-
ton, and handle all our meats unler
the government regulations, just as
though a man was stationed here, for
we are liable to be visited by gov
ernment inspector any day"

MAYOR CLARKE WANTS
ALL MEAT INSPECTED

At the meeting of the city council
this week Mayor Clarke took occasion
to call attention to a matter that he
believes is of vital Importance to
Moscow. He said he had been look
ing into the matter OF meat inspec-
tion, and recited that he had just ac-
companied the government inspector
through the Hagan & Gushing plan
where he saw twelve head of hogs that
had just been purchased from Elmer
Paulson, farmer living south of
town. OF these twelve head four
we're so infected with tuberculosis
that they were destroyed entirely;
four others were unfit for food, other
than the lard, while the last four
were but partly fit for food, the heads
and necks being affected, and de-
stroyed.

Mayor Clarke confirmed this state
ment, saying he considered meat in

CARLYLE SAYS HOGS
PAY FARMERS RENT

LEWISTON, Dec. Is. = Professor
Carlyle, dean of the agricultural col
lege Of the University of Idaho, was
introduced to the assemblage at the
stock show yesterday by President
Clagstone as being a man who had
been recognized by the United States
government as the greatest authority
on the horse in America Mr.. Carlyle
declined, however, to take as the sab
ject for his discourse "The Horse"
saying that he hesitated to discuss this
subject in the presence Of G.. H. Nc
MILAN, of Sioux Falls, visitor at the
show, and who he said was Perhaps the
greatest breeder of Perch eron horses
in the United States, and who had left
the International at Chicago prior to
assist in the show in progress. Mr..
Carlyle, speaking lof the show, said
it should have a permanent home so
that exhibitors would know to what
point they would have to ship before
preparing stock for exhibition and sale
and that next year he hoped to see a
show ten times the size of the pres
ent one.
Professor Carlyle said he would
sneak on the subject Of the "Hcg" for
regardless of the views of some peo-
pie ne was inclined to the view held
of the Irishman: Amy how he's the
gsntleman that pays the rint."
, Professor Carlyle said in part:
Many farmers believe that it is i'm
possible to raise hogs, and produce
pork in the Intermountain country at

jority of them. believe that hogs can
not be grown and fattened at a profi
in any country where corn cannot be
abundantly and cheaply grown; il
fact, they are not backward in ex-
pressing their conviction that hogs
cannot be grown and fattened without
corn After some years experience in
hog growing and fattening in this
western country l am convinced that
these men are not only greatly mis-
taken but l believe that this section
offers many advantages for pork pro-
duction that are not found in any other
section of the United States.
In closing his address, Professor
Carlyle stated that in January the uni
versity experiment station would be in
charge of a demonstration train that
would visit the prairie and Clearwater
country and that with the exhibits he
would bring along the grand cham
pionship steer, recently bought by him
at Chicago, the steer to be used for
demonstration purposes on the lecture
tour.
With the close of the afternoons
discourses, the aisles in the hall were
cleared and minute later strings Of
great horses were brought in II be
passed upon by Professor Carlyle.

that the crowd would move back,
