NOJ guilty!
This was the verdict returned at
1914 p. m. today in the court of Fed
eral Judge Carpenter against the ten
beef packers who have been on trial
for several months on the charge Of
violating the Sherman antitrust law
The decision is considered by some
lawyers as a damaging blow for that
statute. As the words mot guilty
We're uttered those Of the defendants
who have been under a terrible sus-
pense and who were in court jumped
to their feet and impulsiveIy rushed
to the jury box and shook the hand
Of each Of the men who gave the de.
cision.
First Hint Comes Suddenly.
The first hint that the jury had
reached a verdict in the case came to
those outside the courtroom in a uni
cue manner A great crowd had as.
sembled in the corridors Of the sixth
floor of the federal building, for,
through the frosted glass doors lead
ing to Judge Carpenters court the
forms of the jurymen could be vague
ly distinguished in outline.
Suddenly there came three sharp
clicks on the glass of the door, as
though some one were rapping with
a silver dollar.
Crowd Surges Toward Doors.
Impulsively the crowd surged to-
ward the doors and a shout went up
in the corridors. Judge Carpenter
came from his chambers and in a few
seconds he was joined by District
Attorney Wilkerson and his assistant
Elwood G. Goldman. Then the attor-
neys for the defendants stepped out
of the elevator and it could be seen
that there was something doing"
After hardly moment Of red tape
the doors to the court were opened
and the crowd filed in. The verdict
was read within five minutes after
the doors to the courtroom were
thrown OPEN
First. Ballot Taken Today.
Few of the jurors would discuss
any phase of the deliberations in thc
jury room, but it was learned from
those who could be induced to taIs
that no ballots were taken last even
ing and that it was not until aIte,
breakfast today that the voting be-
gan. The first ballot stood for ac
quittal and 4 against. The second
ballot, taken about an hour later
stood II for acquittal, one juror hold
ing out for conviction. On the third
ballot the jurors agreed upon acquit

Scene in Court Dramatic.
The scene in the courtroom as the
jury filed into the box was intensely
dramatic, The room was so qulel
that the ticking Of the clock at the
rear of the chamber was distinctly
audible Judge Carpenter had taken
his seat and the defendants had
Just settled themselves in their chairs
when the jurors, headed by Foreman
JUdson e. Harvey, a grocer of vii
ton Center, came out of the jury
chamber and took their places.
Gentlemen" asked Judge Carpen-
ter, have you reached your verdict.
I'VE have" came the impressive re-
ply.
The defendants stirred uneasily in
their chairs and a nervous hush fell
over the room. Spectators waited.
1--WE, the jury, find the defendants
not guilty." came the dictum.

WRONG BRIDE AT THE ALTAR

The story OF a bridegroom finding
the wrong bride at his side for the
wedding ceremony was told in Bonn
bay high court short time ago. A
member of the religious sect known as
the Jains, being forbidden by Jain
custom to seek for a bride for him
self, commissioned another man to
find one After a selected bride had
been viewed" by the Jain at rail
way station he agreed to pay the
prospective brides father $1,000, and
$50 to an intermediary, and part of.
the money was paid in advance. At
the ceremony the bride wore a
heavy veil, and when the Jain asked
her to remove it he found that some;
one had been trying to pass off a sub.
stitute for his bride. These adven-
lures are not uncommon In India.
Sometimes very ugly girl is passed
off on a bridegroom.

wherewith, If any one of the congre-
cation were observed to be asleep he
was instantly awakened by tap on
the head.
In Warwickshire a similar custom
prevailed. A warden bearing stout
wand shaped like hayfork at the
end stepped stealthily up and down
the nave and the aisles and whenever
he saw an individual asleep he
touched him SO effectively that the
nap was broken-this being some
times accomplished by the applica-
ton of the fork Ito the nape of the
neck.

FORTUNE IN THE PUNCTURE


A puncture In an automobile tire
isn't always misfortune, according
to the recent experience of an autoist
at Grass Valley, New. The reason
for his philosophy may be explained
in the fact that while driving he sud
denly heard a report, and, leaving his
seat, he looked upon the spectacle of
a punctured tire and proceeded to
fix it. During the course of his labors
he had occasion to step near the lit
tie stream Of water that was close
by. His eyes were caught by a sud
den CLINT between the rocks, and.
STOPPING over, he picked up gold
nugget that proved to be worth $70
The nugget exactly fitted the cut in
the tire and caused the puncture

DR.. CALDWELL's GUIDE
TO GOOD HEALTH

The natural tendency of people in
this busy age to demand OF the di-
gestive organs more than nature in
tended they should perform, frequent
ly results in throwing the entire di-
gestive system into disorder. When
the stomach fails to freely digest aad
distribute that which is eaten, the
bowels become clogged with mass
Of waste and refuse which ferments
and generates poisonous gases that
are gradually forced into the blood,
causing distress and often serious i'll
ness.
DR.. W. B. Caldwell says that If the
bowels are kept regular there will be
much less sickness, and prescribes a
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that is most effective in
relieving any congestion of matter in
the bowels. This compound can be
bought in any drug store under the
name Of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
and costs only SO cents q bottle. It is
mild in its action, pleasant to the
taste and positive in effect, a dose at
night bringing relief next morning,
naturally and without gripping or 9th
er discomfort. A bottle Of Dr.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in the house will
save many times its cost In doctor
bills. Your name and address on a
postal to DR.. W. B. Caldwell, 203 West
ST., Monticello, H., will bring a free
trial bottle by return mail. Adv.
