Zimms Acquitted of Murder Charge
Graham Banner.)

Graham Banner.)
The case of the Commonwealth
against NJ. z. Zimms was trie dat Leb-
anon last week in the Circuit court,
and after being out few minutes the
jury brought in verdict Of not gull
ty. 1t will be remembered that on
last Christmas eve Il young man by
the name of Combs was killed in the
Sutherland store at Finney. Zimms
was the telegraph operator at that
point and was in the store Mt the time
of the killing, and is said to have
fired n pitsol during the trouble. He
was arrested and had been held in
the Lebanon Jail ever since. 1t is
said that many witnesses appeared at
the trial against Zimms. He and
Mrs. Sutherland were the only wit
nesses for the defense in so far as his
part in the shooting was concercnd.
1t appears that the body of the dead
man was taken up and TIE bullet
taken from his head, and that on cx-
animation it showed the bullet was Il
32 short while the pistol used by
Zimms only used .32 long.
Zimms is we'll known in Graham
where he was formerly operator at
the tower. He arrived here last night
and met many friends who were glad
of the verdict in his favor. He left
today for Columbus.
1t seems that several were involv-
ed in the fighting and the friends of
Zimms have never thought he was
the guilty party, as he did not seem
to be one fthose taking an active
part in the ARRAY.

THE FESTIVE CUTWORM.

1t is evident from reports heard
from different sections of this county
and other counties in the State, that
poor and unsatisfactory stands of
corn have been secured this season,
due to cool, dry weather partially,
and partially to the ravage of insects
chiefly cutworms. These little pests,
during the cool, dry weather of the
past week or two have played smash
with corn. Some fields have had to
be furrowed out and planted again.
In nearly every field, large or small,
replanting has been necessary. Their
ravages are not confined to corn plant
ed on sod, though they seemed to have
been more numerous here than on 9th
er lands. On an acre where crimson
clover and vetch grew last winter,
turned down and planted May 1st,
the little worms are thick. About
per cent of the corn on this plot was
damaged or destroyed, and had to be
replanted. They seem to have flour
ished in this sod last winter. What
to do about it is the question. Var
ious schemes, none of them pactica-
BILE, except on a small scale, have
been suggested. 1t is generally agreed
that a rotation of crops, late fall and
winter plowirgy will rid the land OF
most of the larvae and eggs out OF
which the cut worm Is produced.

Prof. Sap Spradlin.

1t is with very deep pleasure that
we write to our readers about Prof,
Sap Spradlin, the Wild Onion School
teacher. Last summer, before de-
parting for the teachers institute at
Tlckville, he ate n lot of grape nuts
and other brain food, and then
reached his hair straight up, so that
prominence would be given his fore
head when the teachers had their
pictures made in a group. He had
himself placed in the program at
the institute, and delivered talk on
THE Effect the Brain Has on the
Mind" His argument was that if a
person hasn't any brains he is u fool.
His talk, which extended over an
hour, received much stomping when
he finished and sat down with a great
deal of satisfaction over himself. For
several seasons Prof. Spradlin has by
his shrewd political manipulations. got
himself elected unanimously as teach
er of the Wild Onion school. He rem
ders great assistance in the cause of
education and besides, was instrument
tai in having the school house turn
ed around so that the map would
hang north and south. Prof. Sprad-
len is a firm believer, of late years,
in the theory that the world is round
and teaches it daily to his pupils.
While Mr.. Spradlen is not candi-
date for any office at the present time
no desires to get his uncle elected
trustee AGAIN Gu TINT ba can m.
