who for some time has been house
keeper for her brother Matt Tuor, a
farmer living southwest of here IN
Lake county, became violently insane
and died as the result of running a
silver under the nail of n of her
fingers. The young woman was scrub

not convince her that there was nc
danger from the injury. She became
frantic with terror and finally lost hel
mind entirely. Her condition finally
became such that the county authori

was taken before the county board Of

hospital for the insane at Yanktor,
| Before she could be taken to that in
stitution she became i'll, death finally

1t seems as though a presiding
judge should have the power to throw
a case out of court or to compel the
litigants to compromise where the
issues involved are trivial and easy of
settlement. We have in mind a case
in this county that has dragged
through the courts for four or five
years and has already cost the tax
payers and the litigants much more
than the original amount in dispute.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Announce-
ment that the war department had
asked American manufacturers of
war munitions for data as to their
facilities for furnishing supplies, par
ticularly in an emergency, led to
some speculation here today, although
officials explained that it was in keep
ing with the usual practice of the de-
partment 1t was declared that no
purchases of war supplies was con-
templated at present.
The step, it is said, was made ne
cessary because of the fact that prac-
tically all private plants are taxed
to their limit in filling big orders
from the warning nations of Europe.
1t is expected that congress will
enact legislation to strengthen the ma
tional defense, necessitating increased
demands for supplies.
