say they felt marked drowsiness.
While physicians disagree as to
whether a subtle and powerful mar

injected from a needle, societies for the

whether procurers tried thus to get
girls in their power.

Both girls say they We're stuck by

Effect of Drug.
Miss Clark's experience was identical
with that of Mrs. Graft and occurred
in the same theater. Miss Clark said
that she occupied an orchestra seat
next to a box and saw a dark COM
pleXioned young man leaning over the
rail the N before she felt the
sting on her hand. Her hand became
numb and extended as in Mrs. CRAFTS
case to her entire arm. She left the
seat and hurried to the women's wait
ing room. There she was on the
verge OF collapse when an attendant
revived her.
Miss Lee said she was In a box In

ACCUSED CONVICT ACTS
AS HIS OWN ATTORNEY

Fort Madison, Ia, Dec. S.-One of the
strangest criminal cases in the history
of the local courts had It's commence
ment and ending in the district court
here. The case was that of the state
versus James Gleason, convict, charged
with escape from custody. The con-
vict pleaded his own case, used him
self as his only witness. answered the
questions which he put to himself,
made his own opening and closing
statements and sent his Ease to the
jury two hours after the jury was
drawn. The jury brought in a verdict
of guilty.
Gleason last September was employ
ed at the new cell house. One night
heeand another convict. Harry Scanlon,
hid themselves at the usual call to
mess and two nights later made an at
tempt to escape through Il sawed
window. Gleason did not deny his at
tempt to escape, but it was his plea.
that he never escaped from custody.
Scanion had descended the rope which
hung from the open window and Glea-
son stood in h window, ready to fol-
low. when the guard on the outside Of
the wall observed him and ordered him
on down.. He says he complied with
the order and was not beyond the
custody of the guard at any time while

CITY ELECTIONS NOT FIXED
BASIS FOR SALOON PETITIONS

Des Moines, Ia, Dec. Sin an opin-
ion rendered yesterday, C. A. Robins,
assistant attorney general, interpreJs
the Fort Dodge case as being without
Influence on the question of whether
q general election is a proper basis for
he circulation of a saloon consent pc
tition. AS indicating that the court
had no intention to distinguish be-
tween a city election and a general
election, Mr.. Robins introduces the
language of the statute showing that q
general election would not do. If the
court had intended TO distinguish be-
tween a city election and a general
election in the Fort Dodge case, it
would have pointed to this statute
Mr.. Robbins says.
The opinion is embodied in a letter
written by the assistant attorney gen.
eral to G. b. Hughes, county attorney
of Fayette county. Saying that he
could hardly believe that HI court
meant what it said" Mr.. Hughes had
asked for an Interpretation.
