 ''Dr. Smith, through me, desires to ask the public to withhold judgment until his side of the case is heard. '
 The physician took his arrest cool ly, four minutes after the special grand jury called by Prosecutor Lay bourne had returned it's indictment, containing four counts. He is charg- ed with having given his wife cyanide of potassium in cocoa and also hypo- dermically on the morning of her death, March 1S last. Heart trouble was given as the cause of her death at that time.
 Although rumOrs were abroad, no official investigation into Mrs Smith s death was made until the doctor mar ried Miss Mabel Claire Marchant, nurse in the Springfield city hospital, at her home in Newton Highlands, Mass, on Oct. 1.
 Mrs Smith firmly believes in her husbands innocence and said, today. she was positive he would be cleared. pr. Smiths aged mother is near death from the shock of his arrest.

SQUARE SILOS.

Ira Wampler, Carthage, Missouri,
writes as follows: 81 wish to build
square silo in one corner of my barn,
but do not know the best way to pro-
ceed Any information you can give
will be appreciated"
The square silo is fast going out of
use, because of the difficulty in con-
structing same in such a way as to
make it profitable Several years ago,
or, in other words, when silo building
was in it's infancy, good many square
silos were constructed but they were
soon abandoned for several reasons,
mainly because 1t was impossible to
prevent leaking at the sides, and sec
ond, the silage spoiled in the corners.
The next step of advancement was to
board up the corners, which made the
silo more of a round structure, and
the latest development has been the
round silo, which is considered far
superior to the square type of con-
struction.
We are sending you under separate
cover our farm barn plans, and you
will note that there is plan for a silo.
This is a concrete silo, which is sim
liar to many that are being built in
various sections of the corn belt.
When properly constructed, the con-
crete silo is more permanent than the
wooden silos, and preserves the silage
equally as we'll as the other types.
The first cost may be little bit more,
but the permanency offsets this OBJ
lection There is another type of silo
which is being built very extensively
throughout Iowa, which is known, as
the Iowa silo, and is built of hollow
tile or hollow building blocks. For
further information on this silo, we
suggest that you write to Professor
NJ. L. King, Ames, Iowa.

Beautiful Home Wedding.

The beautiful country place of Mr..
and Mrs. r. E. Kelly, two miles north
of the city, was the scene of a beauti-
full home wedding Sept. y at 8 O'Clock,
when they gave the hand of their daugh-
ter, Miss Mary Louise Kelly, in marriage
to Mr.. Park Powell. Rev. Ben Russell,
formerly pastor of the Fulton circuit,
now of Clinton, performed the cere-
mony. Miss Mary Farmer, of this city,
played Mendelssohn wedding march
for the entry and exquisitely rendered
Hearts and Flowers" during the cere-
mony. The details of the wedding were
on simple lines and witnessed by only
relatives and few close friends of the
contracting parties.
The bride wore brown travelling suit
and appeared most beautiful, while the
groom was handsomely attired in con-
ventional black.
Following the nuptials the happy
twain, after being showered with con-
CALCULATIONS, departed for their future
home, Seattle, Washington.
The bride is a splendid type of Ken
lucky womanhood, possessing indefn-
able charm and a highly cultivated
mind. Her friends in this community
are many and never did one enter upon
the pleasant sea of matrimony accom-
panied by more good wishes and happier
fluctuations.
The groom was reared in the neigh
boring town of Hickman, but left the
quietude of that peaceful village num-
Der of years ago to obtain an education.
He attended the State University at Lex
ington until his graduation with honors
in 1905. Following the completion Of
his studies at the university he went
abroad and spent some time in the study
of languages. Upon his return the
United States he matriculated inVthe
University of Chicago, taking a post
graduate course. After completing the
prescribed course there he accepted the
prdfessorship of Spanish in the Uni
veBsity Of Washington, at Seattle, which
heI Iiow holds.
I'VE join host of friends in extend
liBg heartiest congratulations and very
best wishes for future filled with bright
