Mike Sauber tailor and a friend
OF Reuters told Of visiting the Reuter-
home one Sunday afternoon when
IIorra Morris called to see Guy Mac
kenzie who was up stairs with Mrs.
Reuter-.
He testified as to party he held
at his house to Mr.. and Mrs. Reuter-
and said that during the evening
Mackenzie was with Mrs, Reuter- most
of the time. He said they had a keg
of beer and he and the other men
spent most of the evening drinking
beer
ibid you invite Guy Mackenzie TO
the party" he was asked.

sponded Sauber
On redirect examination the state
sprung the biggest surprise Of the day
when Sauber told of getting pair
of trousers belonging 10 Mackenzis
from the county jail on September 4
to clean and FOUND IN a pocket
piece OF paper and a piece Of copper
wire. Both were introduced as evi-
dence and passed to the jurors. The
paper bore a diagram supposed to be
of the lock in Mackenzie's cell at the
county Jail and the wire was bent to
resemble a skelton key.
Manuel Welch was recalled to the
stand as the last witness to- corrobo-
rate Joe Millers testimony. Miller
testified before that Mackenzie told
him of man to whom he owed 5000
that he would like TO have robbed
after he had paid off the debt ana
would give someone half Of the $500
TO do the Job.
Welch testified that Mackenzie
owed him $500 which fell due last fall
and only 5000 OF it had been paid.

HOW TO KILL YOUR TOWN.

Buy from peddlers as much and
as often as possible.
Denounce your merchants be-
cause they make profit on their
goods.
Glory in the downfall Of a man
who has done much to build up
your town.
If there are men and women in
the town you hate or envy, SLAM
der them.
Make your town out bad place
and stab it every chance you get.
Refuse to unite in any scheme
for the betterment of the mate
rial interests of the people.
Tell your merchants you get
goods much cheaper in some other
town and charge him with extor-
ton.
III a stranger comes to your
town, tell him everything is over
done and predict general crash
in the near future.
If YOU are a merchant, don t
advertise in the home paper, but
compel the manager to go else
where for advertisements, and
howl like a sore head because he
does. Buy a rubber stamp and
use it. 1t may save you a few
dimes and make your letterheads
look as though you were dong
business in a one-horse town.
If you are a farmer, curse the
place where you trade as the
meanest on earth. Talk this over
with your neighbors and tell the
men they are robbers and thieves.
1t will make your property much
less valuable, but DOM are.-Price

SUSPENDED MONORAIL SYS.

The success Of the overhead
monorail system in the German
cities of Elberfeld, Barmen, Yah
winkel, and at Loschwitz, near
Dresden, Saxony; and the fact
that after due study 'and consid-
Grafton, Hamburg is at present
building just such a rapid trans
portation system, has caused J.
r. Rauhut, a Chicago engineer, to
propose this system for Chicago's
consideration.
The idea, says the November
Popular Mechanics Magazine in
an illustrated article, is to adapt
the overhead or suspended mono
rail system as a combination ele-
waited and subway system for Chi
cago, the system being operated
as a subway is what is known as
the downtown or central district,
comprising an area about 172
miles wide and 21a miles long.
Outside Of this area, on the north,
west and south, the system would
be operated as an elevated road,
like that proposed for Berlin. A

DOES FEMININE CHARM
CHANGE.

The editor of Golfers in dis
eussing feminine charm, says it Is
delightfully."- embodied in the he
roines of Shakespeare. We free
ly admit the great charm Of the
Elizabethan woman as she lives IN
the pages of Shakespeare, but IS
it quite the charm of the modern
woman. The peculiar charm OF
the woman Of the spacious
days" may roughly be summed
up as beauty plus plenty of wit
and vivacity and deceptive air
of independence. We somehow
fiatter ourselves that feminine
charm is nowadays more mixed
matter. It is compounded OF
more elements, more subtly blend
ed. Perhaps it has more OF the
masculine quality than formerly,
lust as masc dlise charm evapo-
rates just in proportion to the EN-.
llSsfed activity of women would
IN sit difficult to prove their case
Forswe have begun to think OF
charms as the fine fragrance of a
rich personality, and q personal
ity can be enriched only by an IN
tense and vivid experience of life.
Such opponents of the feminist
movement as Ellen Key see no
lcpnfict between charm and the
rider extension Of woman's in
nence in society, and they do
lot hesitate to emphasize the i'm
Eportance of the development OF
charm in giving that influence its
maximum effect.-Chicago Rec
