 Automobile accidents which are be-
 ing chronicied almost daily in every
 section of the country detail injuries
 to motorists who caused the accident,
 because they do not take the ordinary
 precaution of -prooflng their cars with tire chains, and also detail in | juries to innocent bystanders who are ! so unfortunate as to be in the path of | the sRidding automobiles. The skid | ding accidents which have occurred recently in this state are only a few of many which happen in every part of
 the country. If every driver and | owner of an automobile would take [ | tire chains in their car and attach them when the roads and streets are i In a wet, slippery condition, nine | tenths of all automobile accidents
 would be eliminated.

 Atlanta. Ga, March While police the burglar whom Mrs. Eugene H Grace says shot her husband, Tues day afternoon, the wife shut hersel, up. in her home and refused to dis cuss the case beyond reiterating her innocence of he crime.
 T love my husband,'' she said. "He is dearer to me than life. How could 1 have shot him7"
 Physicians tat St. Joseph's tospi' tai declared, today. that Grace has but slender chances of recovering from the bullet, which penetrated his left side and lodged close to the spin al cord. If he survives. he will be paralyzed.
 From evidence so fark gathered by the police, they believe Grace was shot early in the morning, while ly' ing in bed. No physician was called nor were the police notified until late in the afternoon. Mrs. Grace was then out of the city. She returned at once and, protesting that bur- glar must have done the shooting was arrested because Grace himself first accused her. Later, he said he was mistaken. ed on $7,500 bond. The wounded man himself te1ephoned from his room that he was shot and police found the door to his bedroom locked from the out side. Mrs. Grace had left the room in the morning.

HOT WORDS PASS 'TWIXT LAWYERS
 IN CITY COURT
Atty. Geenstein Calls States Witness a "Bum," and Alt t0rney Delaney Replies in Kind

Prosecuting Attorney Alexander De- Laney and Attorney Henry Greenstein had an exceedingly sharp tilt in the city court this morning and it might have been sharper had not Judge Wilder interfered, for both lawyers had their batting gloves on and were ready for a wordy tussle or any other kind, apparently.
 ''That witness is nothing more than a bum," exclaimed Lawyer Green witness in a case in which he was counsel for the defense. Attorney Delaney, who had been yisibly grow ing hotter while the other lawyer was denouncing all the states witnesses, at this point grew tired of listening and jumped up.
 ''I object to that" he declared, that man no more resembles bum than you yourself do sometimes" he hurled at Attorney Greenstein.
 The counsel for the defense turned 8 delicate shade of scarlet and was about 2,000 fahrenheit when Judge Wilder warned the attorneys to keep further personalities out of the case.
 The trouble arose during the trial of Edward Messiena ard Angelo Spa rano for assault upon Frank, Griffin in Jacques saloon several days ago. Attorney Greenstein was counsel for the accused men and in summing up in their behalf he issued scathing denunciation of the witnesses for the complainant. This brought about the interference of Prosecutor Delaney and the exchange of compliments as above quoted.
 Judge Wilder found Sparano guilty and fined him $25 and costs. but dis charged the other man. An appeal was taken in Sparano's behalf under bonds of $75. ,''.~ '-.t s9t- --i>

| indeed, the only problem sewage dis
 posal presents to municipality is the l avoidance of a nuisance. Under cer-
 tain conditions this may be accom-; pllshed by diluting the sewage with :, a sufficiently large valurne of oxygen
 containing water The discharge Of sewage into the water Of large lake. | or river is hence often sufficient to prevent a nuisance; on the other hand,
 such a practice may be fraught with
 great danger to the public health II a public water-supply is derived from the lake or river in the neighbofhood of the point of sewage discharge!
 During the past few years many special processes for the direct or in- 1 direct oxidation of sewage impurities 1 have been experimented with anos 1 have been used under practical con ditions Intermittent sand-htters, con-. 1 tact beds, sprnkling-f filters and nu- merous other devices have each been l thought to possess special advantages 1 and to lead to avoidance or at. least to intimidation of a. nuisance; Look ling at the results so far obtained 1t cannot be said that actual certainty l in this field of experimentation has yet been reached. At the same time it
 may reasonably be asserted that it is possible today to treat large volumes of sewage much more expeditiously and with much less offense than 1t was a few years ago.
 Several methods are now available. ! says The Journal of the American
 Medical Association, by which sewage can be disposed of on large or small, scale without the production sof op- 1 jectionable odors, and also that the choice of method must be determined by study of local conditions It IS not possible to settle sewage as posal problem offhand with any uni versally applicable formula Each case should be studied by an expert or body of experts with regard to To- cal conditions and local requirements. Only in this way can mortifying ana costly mistakes be avoided

 Another audience of fashionably the testimony. While Mrs. Taft did not appear, her niece, Miss Anderson, was present.
 Rev. Carter discussed with the com mittee conditions existing at the mills. He defended the mill owners, saying that they had never encouraged the employment of children under age.
 The legal status of the Lawrence strike and possible grounds for. fed eral interference, occupied the House Rules Committee, today.
 The basis for a federal investigation, if one is ordered, will be laid in the interference of the Lawrence authori- ties with the strike children who at tempted to leave the city. The conn mitte has cross-examined closely everyone connected with the arrest of women and children at the Lawrence Railway station, and City SolocltOr Murphy, who prosecuted the women and children, was question as to the grounds for the actions.
 Murphy declared that, under the neglected children law of Massachu- setts, he believed the police had a right to arrest the children.
 Under severe crosS-examination by Stanley, Murphy was confused in his efforts to fit the neglected children law to the cases of the children ac- companied by their parents who were at the station
