Scheunenberg gave him a bunch of
keys, and told him to go to the place"
and look after the stuff" This he
said he did, and that he took the cards
and poker chips. He denied that he
had taken bank. or that he had ever
seen a bank.
Prosecuting Attorney Mckee then
went after" the witness. bringing up
instances where Wells had been, or
was supposed to have been In trouble
In other counties. Attorney Honecker
objected, saying that there was a way
10 impeach a witness. and that was to
have the man who made the accusa-
tons on the stand. Squire Hobbs
ruled that the line OF questioning was
alright, and the prosecutor continued.
Evidently seeing that IL was useless
Mr.. Honecker did not object any more
Wells said that he had been employed
by the state prohibition commissioner
TO run down clues. and that he Ioafed
around the Davis place to get evi-
dence of the existence OF a speakeasy
He insisted that he had other keys to
the place besides the ones that Scheu-
enberger gave him.
Davis was place on the stand in re-
direct examination and said that there
were no other keys. A young mill
man by the name of Wetzel, who said
he lived at No. n Alley IL, appeared
as a witness in behalf OF Wells. He
said that he saw Sheunenberger give
Wells bunch of keys, that they sep
arated at Sixteenth and Market street
and that they met there. He said he
saw Wells give back to Scheunen-
berger what he supposed to be the

Davis affirmed that his place was
broken into. that his money bank was
stolen, and that his cards and poker
chips were taken. He said that about
two weeks after that. Wells gave him
back his poker chips and cards but
the money bank was still missing. The
witness testified that there was no
Key for the door except the one which
he had. and that after Wells gave him
back the poker chips and cards he
came TO the conclusion that Wells
TOOK the money. so swore out a war
rant.
On cross examination he told in
answer to Mr.. Honecker's questions
mat he took the loss OF his bank as a
JOKE Tor some time. He admitted that
tney played cards in the place, that
the rear room of his shop was a club

The witness further said that there

The Belts on Jupiter.

It has been suggested by Lau that the reason Jupiter has belts instead of zones of spots is to be found in it's rapid rotation. The material forced upward from the lower strata of the planet, bringing with it a smaller lin ear velocity than that of the surface, streams eastward and assumes the ap- pearance of elongated streaks. If the centres of eruption are sufficiently numerous, belts are formed; and it is suggested that, were the suns rotation much more rapid than 1t is, the solar surface at spot maxinrum would also present dark streaks of belts. In ac- cordance with this theory of belt for nation, the Scientific American notes that the great revival of Jupiter'S north equatorial belt in 1912-1913 be- gan with the outbreak which quickly spread out around the planet. -Ex-- change
