general assembly is expected to AT Least
review the results OF the first two years
operation of the non partisan judiciary
law. Ii the predictions of some poll
tical students are realized. il VIII make
important changes in the law.
There have been plenty of indica-

that the trial will be one of the most
interesting ever held in the state.

ions were much divided as TO wheth-
err it was case Of murder. or OF muir
der and suicide. Detectives We're emf
ployed and the arrest OF Brooks oc-
Cured few weeks ago. He denies any
connection with the crime.

Construction COMPANY has unloaded n
large dredging nachine at this place.
and as soon as the weather conditions
permit will begin laying water pipe:

miles south. to the Winner reservoir.
The contract for this work was let 80

quality hard. which led to the decision
of the city council to- pipe the soft wa
ter from the Shoemaker springs for
both municipal and private purposes.

The Bustle Comes Back

The hustle is coming back again.
In fact, some have already arrived,
and everyone in awhile we see Two
man going about with an assumed
deformity that she would give great
deal to be without if it were there
for keeps.
The hustle is difficult subject to
handle-either literally or hterarily.
1t is one of those things that refuse
to be downed. Even when sat upon
a hustle is not downed for sure. A
short time ago we saw a woman and
a hustle sink gracefully into chair.
The woman wore, among other things,
look of absolute confidence. But
presently the hustle began to work
its way out. Just then another wo-
man came up and asked the hustled
woman whatever had happened to
her back. And right there friend
ship ceased. We walked away.
