/ In the Phagan case to date
The public must remember. how
ever. that not all the things II has
read in the newspapers, not yet one
half the things, ever will go before the
jury trying Leo Frank as competent
evidence.
And fl is upon the COMPETENT
evidence alone that the court Will
permit Leo Frank to be Judged.
For instance, nothing that Mrs.
Frank has said in the public prints
viii go before the jury. A wife is
estopped in law from testifying either
for or against her husband.
Fomby Woman Rejected.
The Fomby woman already has
been rejected as a possible witness
against Frank. Her story admitted
~ is too preposterous even for the
State to bother with II further.
How much OF Conley's story the
jury viii hear is entirely problemati-

He will be warned that he need not
testify to anything calculated TO in
Criminate himself and even II he
elects to disregard this warning there

The ponderous assurances OF
Franks guilt, so frequently Numbered
from police headquarters by Detective
Lanford, Will so far as the jury is
concerned, not be there. Detective
Lanford will not be on the jury-and

guilt Of Frank win not he immediate

Franks own statement, IL must be
rendered, will be delivered to the
jury, not under oath.
The jury viii be instructed by the
court that Il may accept the defend
ants statement as the truth in its en-
tlrety, and to the exclusion of ALL
the sworn testimony, II II sees fit; or
Il may accept IL in part and reject II
I'm part; or II may reject the state
ment as a whole.
The Jury, and the jury ALONE, will
be the Judge Of the facts.

The Robinson Thermal or Turkish
bath, taken at home, Is becoming
rage. Those who have used the bath
have been completely carried away with
enthusiasm because Of the astonishing
results obtained.
Well known physicians say that the

exaggeration. Any man or woman can
prove its results inside Of "a hours, In
some cases 80 minutes.
In cases of rheumatism, especially
the uric acid poison Is extracted from
the system through the pores. almost
as liquids are sucked up through a
straw Drugs merely smother the poison
or ease the pain They do not extract
the poison from the body.

Q. FEWER BEEF CATTLE

Chicago. Dec. 2s.-Fewer cattle -
2s1. .29s have been received at the Chi
cago stockyards this year than in 1911.
according to figures given out yester-
day. Despite this fact. more money
was paid for beef during 1912 than la
1911 by ss.2s2.7 The total paid on.
this year was s1ss. s.sos.
Three reasons are given for the m
creased price OF beef. The Western
states did not raise as many cattle as
usual because OF droughts. many
farmers are turning their pastures III
to wheatfields. and the demand for
beef has increased. II was explained
that the population in the United
States has increased In the last TWEEN
ty years 20 per cent. while the in
crease in cattle production has been
only per cent.
Beef exports fell on this year be-
cause OF the big home demand. In
1911 there were $1,000 cattle export ii
from the Chicago yards. compared
with $4,000 this year.

In eight pound boxes. The parcels

and New York in zone No. /.
Determined by all questions to re-
tain the prune traffic the express com

The government cannot meet II. for

MY opinion is that the express

ultimately will be largely confined %

him that in Denver the assessed val

value. Griffith then said that when
