 Goes to Jury.

Columbus, O., Nov. 25-The first Farley, the pretty state house stenog- rapher charged with shooting Alvin E. Zollinger, went to the jury.
 Attorneys for the defense completed their arguments and Prosecuting At torney Turner sumed up for the state.
 Several times during the speech for the defense by Attorney Emmet M. Tompkins handkerchiefs went to the eyes of the crowd in the courtroom, and at one time, when the story of how the young stenographer was first wronged by the man she is charged with having killed was told several of the jurors were in tears.
 Attorney Tompkins, in closing his plea, announced that if Miss Farley is acquitted she and Jerome Quigley will be married and go with the girls par ents to California, as had been planned before the tragedy. He plead, ed with the jurors to allow the mar. riage.
 Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Price declared impossible the manner in which the defense claims that Zol- finger was accidentally shot"
 The best evidence that he was not accidentally shot" said Price, was that the wound was in the back of his head, that he fell forward on his face. and that when he was first fou,,d o raincoat was over his left arm, while his right hand was grasping an um. brella'
 Attorney James A. Allen, for the de. fense, in his plea argued that Zo'Nug. CT had met accidental death while at- tempting to commit murder and then suicide

WEDDING GLOVE FOR BRIDE
Third Finger ls Lett unstitched 60
That the Ring Can BE slipped
On.

A happy era has dawned for the
bride at the fateful moment when the
ring ID about to be placed on her I'M
ger.
Instead Of the usual struggle TO re-
move her left hand glove she viii
now be able to uncover the third I'm
ger without effort and without losing
her composure
This delightful result is to be OBJ
tanned by an ingenious wedding
glove" device. The inside seam on
the third finger of the left glove is un-
stitched. so that all that the bride
need do Is to slip her finger through
the slit. to receive the ring The I'm.
ger can just as easily be slipped back
into the glove after the ceremony.
The device will be greatly appre-
ciated not only by the bride. but also
by the nervous bridegroom.
The story OF the origin OF the we'd
ding glove has come to light. Some.
time ago a girl who had lost her right
arm In the hunting leid asked for
single wedding glove.
She remarked on the awkwardnesa
OF having to remove her glove with
the help Of her teeth. and 1t was then
seen that matters would be greatly
facilitated for the bride II she only
had to uncover the ring finger.
The experiment was so successful
that It aroused the interest Of othei
prospective brides, who saw In 1t Z

the usual difficulties OF removing
