Important Legal Ruling.

J The latest ruling on the admissible
fly of dying declarations" in evidence
In criminal cases is made by the SUI
preme court of Georgia in Sewell VS..
State, in which the court states in its
syllabus:
In a murder case it was error to
charge the jury that when death is
approaching and the dying man has
lost hope of life, and his mind feels
the full consciousness of his condi-
ton. the solemnity of the scene gives
to his statement the sanctity of truth,
and such dying declaration, when
made under such circumstances, may
be given in evidence and submitted to
the jury Such charge tended to I'M
duly impress the minds of the jury
with the weight of the evidence con-
tanned in dying declarations, as to
which juries do not require any en-
phasis from the bench"

Preventing Premature euria,s.

The fear of being buried alive al
ways has been, and Is, SO widespread
that the French Academy of Science
some years ago offered a prize equal
to $500 for the discovery Of some
means by which even the inexperi-
enced might at once determine wheth-
er, in a given case, death had ensued
or not A physician obtained the
prize. He had observed the following
well-known signs: If the hand Of the
suspected dead person is held towards
a candle or other artificial light, with
the fingers extended and one touching
the other, and one looks through the
spaces between the fingers towards
the light, there appears scarlet red
color where the fingers touch each
other. due to the blood still circulat-
ing; it shows itself through the tis.
sues which have not yet congested.
When life is entirely extinct, the phe-
nomenon of scarlet spaces between
the fingers at once ceases. The most
extensive and thorough trials estab-
lished the truth of his observation.

Portable outdoor sitting room in sum-
mer. It is a typical bungalow porch
with wide steps and heavy columns,
which are fenced between with mis-
sion style of railing without spindles.
The chimney is rough stucco fin
ish, the size and design of which is
similar to the heavy porch pillars.
The similarity includes the caps on
the porch and the chimney top.
The plan of the rooms also is
worked out in true bungalow fashion,
with two bedrooms and bathroom on
one side of the house and the three
living rooms on the other side. When
ever possible, the living rooms are
laid out on the sunny side of the
house, because SO much more time is
spent in the living rooms than in the
bedrooms
Provision is made for a stairway
to the cellar going down from the
kitchen. This stair is laid out with
wide treads and easy risers, because
the housewife makes a good many
trips to the cellar and back while at
tending to the many household duties
during the day. The value of an easy
cellar stair is appreciated in bunga-
low more than in the regular two-story
house, because it is the only stair and
more use is made of it.
The rooms in this bungalow are all
good sized and carefully arranged

living room is intended to embody a
great deal of elegant comfort. It Is

Livestock Expert to Aid Denver.

lows were built close down on the
ground with caves that could almost
be reached by stretching up ones
arm.
The planting of the bungalow into
foreign territory, however, has result
ed in many characteristic changes.
For instance, all bungalows in the
North are built with cellars In fact,
a cellar under bungalow in the north
ern sections OF the country is the most
important part of the house, because
1t furnishes storage that is especially
valuable in a house that has neither
upstairs or attic.
The depth of bungalow cellars va
ries according to the climate. A uni
form height of basement or cellar cell
ing has been established, because
northern bungalows especially are
heated by warm-air furnaces and the
furnace pipes require 7lA feet Of head
room to give the proper slope for
easy heating, but the depth of cellar
wall below the lot line may vary with
the amount OF cold winter weather.
The cooler the climate the deeper the
cellar below ground.
There is modification to this rule,
however, for the necessity of carrying
out the low-down construction. For
this reason, when the cellar wall ex-
tends from two to four feet above the
level Of the lot, then considerable
grading is done in front to bring the
ground up within a foot or so of the
level of the main floor.
On the other hand deep cellar base
ments require large windows to admit
the necessary light.
The bungalow effect in front is Sc
cured by grading the lot and planting
flowers and shrubbery 30 that the
ground may slope away to the back

fall have the traditional fiat roof, but
when the rainfall exceeds 20 or "a

The sleeper roofs may be held down In

In this little fve-room bungalow
We have an artistic fascia. The peaks
Of the gables conform to bungalow
ideas by introducing an artistic effect
that is thoroughly in keeping with the
subject. The windows and window
frames also are in keeping with the
oddities of bungalow building. Also
the cellar windows are shaped in con.
formity with the larger windows, but
do not not follow too closely any one
particular pattern.
The cellar windows are set in the
siding of the house, the same as the
larger windows that light the living
rooms, which is one reason for the
window family likeness.
Another bungalow feature is the
manner in which the timbers are
reached out from the gable ends Of the
