FAILS TO REACH VERDICT.
Jury Deliberates Four Hours in Non
Support Case.

After celebrating four hours a jury in
Criminal Court No. l failed to reach a
verdict in the non-support case brought
against William Hilton, an ironworker,
whose wife. Annie Hilton, alleged that he
had failed to support her.
Hilton had disagreement with his
wife, and offered evidence tending to
prove that he had just cause for re-
fusing further support. The law leaves
to the jury the determination Of the ques-
ton Of what Ii Just cause.
The case Is Of special interest, owing
to the number Of indictments recently re-
turned by the grand jury against al
legged recreant husbands. Heretofore
most OF the men brought In have pleaded
guilty. and been placed on parole on their
promise to support their wives in the
future. In view Of this disagreement, 1t
Is considered probable that other hus-
bands may stand trial and take their
chances with the jury.

Tennis in Japan,

The Japanese have displayed a Pc
culiar aptitude for lawn tennis. To
many Indianapolis players the sight
Of an expert Japanese on the park
courts is not uncommon. Among the
best amateur players in the city are
Japanese house servants. What they
lack in height they more than make
up in agility. They seem to be indie
fatigable. Tennis, like baseball, is
steadily growing in popularity in ia
pan. The former has become IA
vorite among Japanese high school
and college students. Intercollegiate
games have also become popular
among the students and their friends.
Among the well-known institutions
that have a large number Of enthusi-
astic tennis players are the following:
Toxic Higher Normal school. Toxic
Commercial school (higher), Waseda
university, Toxic Kyoto university,
Kyoto; Third high school, Kyoto.
The foreign communities in the vari-
Gus ports, Yokohama, Kobe and Ma
gasaki, have tennis clubs. The lead
ing foreign club at Yokohama is
known as the Ladies' Lawn Tennis
club. Tennis rackets are already be-
ing manufactured in Japan, there be-
ing fix factories in Toxic alone.

do than he would have liked.
But what hurt worst was that, hav

He was sorry for the disappoint-

went to the lad, manly little chap,

HBIack and Blue" Bruises Explained.

The color Of blood is due chiefly to
iron in the little blood cells. When
the iron is kept in these little blood
cells, which are living and travelling
around in the blood vessels. the color
is red. Hit the skin hard enough to
break some of the little blood vessels
beneath the surface and the little red
cells escape from the injured blood
vessels, wander around for while
in the tissues, and die.
When they die the iron that made
them red before then changes to
black-and-blue coloring. After a while
this iron is taken up by the glands
called the lymphatics and made over
again into nice red cells. The iron
is taken up very much more quickly
by the lymphatics if the black-and-
blue spot is rubbed and massaged.
