IN BLOODY DETAIL
Story of the Murder of Mrs. Laguariia
Is Told by a Witness.

Golden, Colo, Dec. 20.-StelIa For
gione, who with her mother claimed to
have witnessed the murder of Mrs. Ma
ria Laguardia near here last August,
for which Mrs. Angelina Garromone is
being tried, took the stand to offer tes-
timony for the state today The girl
reiterated her story of how she held
Mrs. Garromone's infant while the wo-
man drew a butcher knife across the
throat Of Mrs. I4aguardia, not neglect
ing in detail how Mrs. Garramone ap-
preached the elderly woman from be-
hind, and called to her that there was
q bug on her neck, and as the Laguar-
dia woman jerked Off her fascinator to
remove the supposed bug, seized her
head, drew il back and cut her throat.
She further explained that the Cara
none woman took from the dead wo-
mans dress a sum of money amount
ing to, she thought, about $3.50.
Stella Forgione speaks English flu
emily. An interpreter was necessary in
the case of the girls mother, another
of the star witnesses of the state, Who
was also scheduled to take the witness
stand today
Both of the Forgione women told of
how Mrs. GaTramone had inviegled
Mrs. Lacsuardia tC the lonely place in
the mountains where she was murdered
by telling her that she could take her
to a mine at which Mrs. Laguardia's
husband worked. The knife with which
the murder was committed. both wo-
men say. was carried in a lunch basket
Today Mrs Garramone seemed TO
take her situation in a more serious
manner. She smiled less frequently
and some think her hopes have been
considerably lessened by a refusal of
the court to dismiss the case on the
grounds that the identity of the re-
mains had not been determined as was
held by her attorney

LEGISLATION SOUGHT
anti tuberculosis Associae
tfon has Solid Backing
Of Public

Convinced by the magnificent
sale of Christmas seals that the
people of Wisconsin are as a
unit demanding that the crusade
against tuberculosis progress
without hindrance, the Wiscon-
SIN nti-Tuberculosis associa-
tion is now seeking legislation
intended to hasten the day when
Wisconsin shall be free from the
dread disease. The legislation
committee is preparing to
definitely draw a bill to be pre-.
sented to the Legislature, pro-
viding for numerous reforms of
immediate need.
Approximately 8, $50, 900
Christmas seals were sold at a
penny each during the campaign
last month, adding a large sum
to the working fund of the state
society. The work which was
begnn in 1909 and brought to a
high state of efficiency in 1910
will now be carried on with even
greater energy. The people
have shown that they want the
great movement to go on by pur.
chasing Christmas seals. The
seal campaign virtually was a
great voting contest on the ques.
tion, "Shall consumption be wip-
ed out of Wisconsin," Every
person was given an opportunity
to cast an affirmative ballot by
buying a Christmas seal. The
result wasa magnificent affirma-
tive vote of 3,25O,000. In pro-
portion to population, this
means that more than one affir-
native vote was cast by every
man, woman and child in the
state. It is a unanimous verdict.
The result of the prize compe-
titions based on the high
est sale in proportion,
to population will be
made known shortly after Jan.
14th, on which day all returns
must be in the hands of the asso-
citation. Sales reported after
that day will not be counted in
determining winners.

Won the First Case
First Indian Liquor Case De-
cided in Favor of the
nefendent.

District Attorney e. G. Alvord
who represents the Washburn
saloon men who were arrested
last summer by federal authori.
ties charged with selling fire
water" to the Indians. returned
from Madison last week where
he went for the purpose Of fight
ing the cases. Nj. Alvord ar.
gued for q test case to be made
and that the balance should be
decided in accordance with this
case. The United States Dis.
trict Attorney who was prose-
cutting the cases refnsed to do
this but instead wanted all Of the
men to be brought TO Madison
where they couln be tried. On
account of the amount work be.
fore the court this could not be
done and the Judge ordered that
one of the Washburn men be Sc
lected and the case against
Louis Wardner was brought for
trial. The case was tried before
a jury after the. hearing of the
evidence q verdict of acquittal
was returned after the jury had
been out little over five minutes.
The contention of the defend
ing attorney in this case was
thss the Indian was citizen of
the United States and therefore
no action could be brought
against the saloon man for sell
ing him liquor. The balance of
the cases against the saloon men
of this city will not be tried un-
til some time later.
