 such an enormous business as this could be carried on without the knowledge of the railroads and do not doubt that By water, who is known to be a close per sonal friend of Knight, was in collision with him in carrying on the fraud.'
 The district attorney discredited the character witnesses, saying that their friends hired for the defense had influ- enced their judgment of his character. Tho district attorneys effort was regard ed as an able summary of the govern- ment's view of the case and if Knight is not convicted it will not be due to lack of zeal on the part of his prose- cutor.
 Defense Opens
 Attorney E. w. Godby followel for the defense He proceeded to analize the case and said that irrespective of Knights consumate ability SIS a busi- ness man and whatever discredit he may be charged with bringing upon the country or the number of bills of lading he had forged, the whole prose- cution rested on whether or not two little slips of paper had been sent through the malls. lie contended that the evidence not only failed to show that they had, but proved that they had not He claimed that the prosecu- tion had raked through the files of the cotton men throughout the civilized world in the effort to fasten some crime upon Knight and the sum total of their harvest has been two pieces of paper, one of which Knight has never heard of before MT. Godby also fired broad side at the railroads, and asserted that it was not possible for Knight to con- duct his business without acquainting the authorities with his plans.
 Granting that there is any fraud" he said, Knight could not have carried it on alone, and the government has set out to make a victim of him with out interfering with the man hi9H- CT up."
 MT. Godby maintained there is noth- ing to show that there was anw fraud intended because the accounts all show beyond doubt that all of the bills of lading issued in previous years had been made good with cotton and when the crash came Knight, Yancey & Co. were filling bills of lading as rapidly as possible.

A Lighting Value

Practically any street directly tribu- tary to business thoroughfare can be fully doubled in value by installa- tion of spectacular lighting" said he. Lighting the entire business section of a city increases values by increasing traffic, not only from the city itself but from the surrounding country and towns. Good light increases the value of residential streets. Good street light ing more than any other thing gives to city an air of progressiveness and prosperity" a4g rAs
 MT. Eshelman condemned the system of not lighting city streets after mid- night or on nights when there is moon as a fallacy. He described many systems of ornamental lightisg which are now in use in Indianapolis, Pueblo and other cities with success.

of heavy traffic when private enter prise provided the Illumination.
 Modern lighting on city streets, MT. Eshelman said, was sure to enhance the value of property because the value of business property was fixed only by the amount and kind of traffic which passes it. He explained the common condition of one side of a street being deserted and another side busy as being due to the superior illum- nations on the busy side.

An example Of Silrs nne nature

a few of the exquisitely finished stan
zas' Of the last five years of Sits
life--his best poetic years by the way
said to have been inspired by
the notes Of B~eeth oven and Bach ana
Chopin. During those five years, a
MUSICAL first night in Cleveland was
not complete without the presence OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Sill. and more than a
few were the special trips which the
poet and his wife made to New York
and Boston, for the sole purpose of
hearing the best operas and Phil
harmonic concerts.
In considering the other aspects of
| SilIs verse, it is perhaps Well that we
should examine first the structure. In
| veStigatiOn shows that Sill was a YER
satile artist; for in a til thoroughly rep
resentative collection Of his work, we
find thirteen distinct forms of verSi-
fication in but sixteen poems. Fur
thermOre. that his work was marked
by extreme care and polish is evil
denced by the fact that a llmping
line is, with him. an almost unknown
occurrence; while even such mildly
dissonant 10 as "cOme-hOme.'

ceedingly rare, Moreover, Sill used

and handled them with consummate
! Skill. as is evidenced by the follow
