ESPECIAL cosRsspospsHce TO MORNING. JOURNAL
Clovis. ~ NJ, Feb l9.~-1'he Jury in
the Taylor murder case brought I'm a
verdict Yesterday morning of not
guilty. and with IL they brought In a
recommendation for the court To rep
rimand the defendant and admonish
| him TO lead a better life. The court
was SO incensed over the findings OF
| the jury and their recommendation
that he unloOsed the breach and
turned the fire on the Jury His rep
rimand to them was short but very
scathing. lie stressed upon the fact
that all the evidence In the case. even
the admission of the defendant him
self was sufficient for verdict OF
murder even in the first degree
Judge Mcclure said:
"The court has tried no case since
he has been on the bench for more
than three years that has created the
surprise in the mind Of the court that
this recommendation and this verdict
carries TO the court The court rs Of
the impression and the opinion that
the testimony In this case would sup
port d verdict OF murder In the first
degree or guilty Of murder in the first
degree.
"The defendants own testimony
would warrant the return of verdict
of guilty of murder in the second de-
gree. and the question OF manslaugh-
ter has very slight bearing In the
matter. This is n serious matter,
gentlemen; the court hasn't had time
To think over the matter. but as stated
10 you II Is much of surprise TO him.
The court. however, Is satisfied that
/ il would be a waste of The taxpayers
money of Curry county TO retniit this
jury longer in an attempt TO prosecute

There Is no question In the courts
mind as TO this, and the court while
he would prefer to take little time
to consider the matter. yet his inn
pressions are so forcible ana so ac-
curate touching this matter under all
the evidence in this case and the in
stuctions of this court that the court
feels now and can not escape from
the conclusion that II is his duty to
discharge this jury from further SER
vice, and in the future, for that mat

here discharges this Jury from further

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?

This question and "How to Prevent
Colds" is asked thousand times
every day. A cold is really a fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and SO render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in SCOTS Emu sion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more senous sick
ness. : 1t contains natures medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
