went before the Grand Jury at Mineola
to-day and told a story that will prob
ably result IN the indictment for muir
der tomorrow Of Mrs. Florence Car
man.
He said he was turning into the Car
man grounds on the night when Mrs
Louise Bailey was killed. He saw n
woman running along the side of the
house from the rear She stopped at
the window to Or. Carmans office and
smashed ii in at one blow. apparently
using her fist.
The tramp was man OF middle age
with gaunt expression about his face
that didn't conceal a merry twinkle in
his eye. His hair was dark. slightly
shot with gray. He was OF medium
height and slender. The clothes he wore
were the clothes Of lucky tramp. not
an unlucky one. His name e. Frank
j. Farrell usually, but sometimes just
Collins for convenience.
Farrell's testimony came as thunder
bolt to Mrs. Carmans defence It was
absolutely unlocked for by her attor-
ney, George NJ. Levy In fact as il is
pretty well understood here, the Car
mans thought that District Attorney
Smith had shot his best arrow when
Celia Coleman, the negro maid. told the
Grand Jury yesterday what she knew.
That was as District Attorney Smith
meant 1t to be. Mr. Levy had had no
time 10 look up Farrells record, as he
had done in the case of Elwood r.
Bardes whom il was generally thought
the prosecution would make one of it's
chief witnesses. In fact Mr.. Levy
thought, and the impression was pretty
we'll ventilated about these parts, that
Farrell had tripped himself up and
might not he called before the Grand
Jury at all. Farrell's whereabouts were
even an uncertainty.

Commissioner Kuolt first denied the

DELLS DAM CASE is ENDED
Judge Reid Gives Decision Against
Eau Claire and in Favor of Inn
provement Company.

Eau Claire.-By the decision hand
ed down by Judge A. H. Reid of Wau-
sau, before whom the case was tried
here last February, the city of Eau
Claire is the loser in the famous Dells
dam case, while the Dells Improve
ment company and the Dells Paper &
Pulp Co. of this city are victors. The
city will appeal.
The litigation, which had been hang
ing fire in the courts since 1906, in
volyed rights and privileges to the
Dells dam in this city, which was built
by the city in 1877 and leased to the
plaintiffs for a term of ninety-nine
years for the consideration of 81 per
year.
The city assailed the ninety-nine
year contract, holding it invalid, con-
tending among other things that such
contract was in abuse of discretion
airy power of the city and contrary to
no power to make such contract.
The court denied these contentious.
The city also contended that the
Dells people had violated certain pro-
visions of the contract and hence had
forfeited their rights, giving the city
right to seize dam; but the court
ruled that aI.-ough such violations
had occurred, that the city had waived
its forfeiture rights by certain acts of
it's common council, since the contract
was entered into. 1t is said 5000 to
10000 horsepower is developed by the

adopted. 1t was invented and is used
by the French military authorities, and
already nearly one hundred have been
purchased by the United States. The

be carried by a soldier. Two men are
required to operate it, both of whom

small mark to the enemy. Ane man

the gun in clips of 25 each, while the
other aims the weapon and directs the

Sound Beyond Machines.


There is one sound Of the human
speech which it is practically impossi-
BILE to perfectly reproduce by mechan-
ical means 1t is the sound OF the
letter IS" Neither the telephone nor
the phonograph renders it properly.
Lord Rayleigh, an English physicist,
was the first to observe this and to
subject the phenomenon to scientific
investigation.
He found that to produce the sound
50 the muscles Of the mouth must
exert only a slight pressure upon the
air. but at the same time the breath
must be projected with such force as
to produce not less than 1000 vibra-
lions of the air waves per second.
This is a higher number than in
the case of any other sound of the
human speech.
