Cieroyman's Pun,

A clergyman who had worked for
many years in a certain wild section
OF the country, was being queried
by brother as to the church which
made most appeal to the people in
that region. He answered that the
Baptists had been most successful in
making converts. The questioner made
some objection to the practice of total
submersioh, which was, the only bap-
ttsmsl ceremony recognized in the
country. 1t seemed to him supereroga.

Crosby ruling that the record Of tcle-

the American Wooden company S pri-
vate switchboard was not sufficient as
evidence that some individual III the
company 5 office had held telephone
conversation with some other person on
,pecifed date.
Through this record the state had
hoped to prove that William NJ Wood.
president of the company, and Freder-
lex T.. Atteaux, held conversation
about Jan. Is, 1912. about the time tho
two men are alleged to have conspired
with Dennis j. Collins and John J,

dynamite in Lawrence, where the strike
was then in progress.
The switchboard Operator had no
positive knowledge of the identity of
the person speaking from the Wood
office or of the person at the other end
