Busy Term Of Circuit Court

manner. A plea of not guilty
was entered for him. The case
was then continued on motion of
the defendant as much to give
the court an opportunity to in
qulre as to his sanity as for any
other reason.
The general impression among
those in the courtroom was that
Truman is only feigning insani-
ty, but however that may be, it
is one of the most serious cases
that has come before the pnblic
in the history of the county. If
Truman is insane he should be
placed where he may be given
good care and attention and
where he will do no further
harm. If on the other hand he
is pretending insanity no punish
ment severe enough can be meted
out to fit his horrible crime. 1t
ought to be the duty of the au-
thorities to see that he is exam
ined by capable and competent
alienists In order that justice to
both Truman and the public may
be accomplished.
Smith Case
The case of the State VS. Gerge
Smith, who has been confined in
the Jail here for over one year on
a charge of burglarizing the
store of R. j. Knots at Frozen,
was continued on account of the
obscure of the absence of two of
the States witnesses.
At the same time that Smith
was indicted for breaking into
the store an Indictment was
found for carrying a razor, and
at the recent term Smith confess
ed and was sentenced to six
months in Jail and fined $50 and
costs. 1t was also the decree of
the court that the prisoner should
work on the roads of the county
under direction and guard of the
county court. This is the first
sentence of this kind to be i'm
posed by the court in the county.
and while it may not amount to
much good in the present case on
account of the advanced age OF
the prisoner, it undoubtedly will
be the means of accomplishing
much work in the future.
Bootlegger Escapes
For the first time in several
years a conviction in an unlawful
retailing case was secured. Sam
Kelley, who stood indicted for
selling rhubarb wine, was found
guilty after jury trial lasting
several hours. Court adjourned
for the day Tuesday evening
with the jury out and unable to
agree. The jury was held over
and Wednesday morning il
brought in a verdict of guilty.
But during the time between
sessions Kelley left town, he not
being under bond or in custody
of the sheriff. When the Judge
called for Kelley to stand up for
sentence it was found that he
was gone evidently fearing an adj
verse decision. The offence was
committed at the Farmers Insti-
tute at Mt. Zion last year and
the only witness for the state was
Isaac Hersman, of Jesse's Run.
1t was shown that the rhubarh
wine had a powerful kick and
would bring the results.
A capias was issued but the
sheriff was unable to locate Kel.
ley before the adjournment OF
court.

Of the sharks whose fins for a week
had been cutting the waters of Rar-

to the line in short order and then
a pull that sent the cord burning
through their hands. Then sent their
boat about, cut out the engine
and fixed the line to cleat near the
bow.
Away off they caught sight of the
shark making for the high sea. The
boat followed, speeding through the
water with more power and at a fast
er clip than the engine had ever
driven It. They ran for half mile
with the big fish doing the pulling.
