And so, withersoever one goes in

clear of all Frank case discussions.
The State is sure of it's case. Frank
never intended to really kill the girl.
When he attempted to assault her
she resisted, and in the struggle that
ensued her head fell back and hit the
machine where the hair was found.
Then Frank redeemed up and found
the cord that made it appear as
though she had been strangled, tied
around her neck. When he found
himself alone with dead girl, he

never told.

Inventions And
Their Birth

The first really practical sewing
machine was invented by Elias Howe
of Cambridge, Mass, in 1871.
The electric light was first obtain
ed by Sir Humphrey Davy, 1843, but
later improvements by Edison and
Brush have made it's general use
possible.
The telegraph was invented by
Samuel F. B. Morse of Charlestown,
Mass, 1887, five years after he began
experimenting. He obtained his first
patent in 1910, and in 1S43 Congress
appropriated 100000 for its develop
ment.
The steam engine was invented by
James Watt, an instrument maker at
the University of Glasgow, 1868. In
1859 he patented his famous conden-
