bringing, her home from the last
dance they had played for. while her
husband looked on from an upstairs
window. She said she didn't know
how many drives she and Robart had
taken together or how many dances
they had played for. He drove her
home from every dance, she testified,
but she was unable to say just what
time they would reach the house.
"The dances usually let out at IL
o'clock, and it took an hour or so to
drive home" she said.
Mrs. Elder said her husband not
only accused her of being intimate
with Robart, but also with Canton
man. She said that at one time he
sharpened pocket knife, which he
told her was to be used to cut out
young Robart's heart At the same
time, she testified, he vowed he would
disgrace her before he died.
Young Robart is the last witness
to be called by the defence, and 1t Is
expected the jury will get the case
by Friday evening.

Washington, Oct. 26-The British
navy Is equipped with torpedo said
to be effective at 10000 yards, or near
ly three times the range of the most
powerful projeotile now used in the
United States navy. This informa-
ton was brought to Washington by
an American navy expert who recently
discussed developments in gunnery,
torpedo craft and the relative method
of target practice in the British and
American navies with some British
naval expert.
The existence of this torpedo has

Proposition To Favor Ships

Likely To Be Opposed By

Washington, Oct. 25-While it is
proposed to place the Panama canal
tolls at a figure which will divert traf-
fic from the Suez canal, the report
reaches here that the Chicago & AL
ton and Kansas City, Mexico & Orient
railroad systems have formed an al
lance whereby the will be able to
handle coast-to-coast freight cheaper
and in less time than it will take for
steamer to cover the 5000 miles Of
the canal route. According to Off
cials here there will therefore be no
lack of competition when the canal
Is opened.

American vessels, while in the pres
ent treaty this provision is omitted
The prohibition against fortifying the
canal being omitted in the present
treaty, the right to fortify was as
serted by the American government
and conceded by Great Britain with
out question. By similar reasoning,
1t is argued, since the provision i'm
posing like terms" on foreign and
American vessels is omitted, 1t is con-
tended that the right to pass Ameri-
can vessels through the canal with
out cost may be conceded, so long as
the vessels of foreign nations are all
treated alike in the matter of charges.

every man residing in rural sections
throughout the country: The man who,
expanding his energies wholly on pri-

about public affairs, pluming himself
on his wisdom in minding his own
business, is blind to the fact that his
own business is made possible only by
maintenance Of a healthy social state
and that he loses all around by de-
fective governmental arrangements.

THE BILLBOARD EVIL.
MontcIair IN. J.) Society Fighting to
Eliminate Advertising Posters.


The Mountain society, devoted to
lettering conditions in the northern
portion Of the town of Montclair, n.
j., is making it known. to the mer-
chants thereabout that If they want
the custom of its members they must
advertise in a seemly way. And this,
they say, is not via the billboard. The
society has issued this statement:
There is no legal way to prevent
the erection of such signs on private
property or to cause their removal
after they are erected, but the COM
munity has in its hands an effective
method of making them worthless by
refusing to buy goods so advertised.
No advertiser will spend his money on
such displays when it is well under
stood that the community which he
seeks to interest in his goods is averse
to that kind Of advertising"
And these reformers go further
still. They are sending out cards
with the statement, Il am opposed to
the erection Of signs for advertising
purposes in Upper Montclair, and the
policy of my family is not to buy
goods advertised in that manner"
This statement the society requests its
members to sign and return.
