Good Reading for Sunday

Abou Ben Film Fan
apologies to Leigh Hunt)
Abou Ben Film Fan (may his family
grow!)
Awoke n night after a movie show.
And saw. beside the window OF his
room, zzaz8te
In bright spotlight that threw all else
In gloom,
A vision writing in q book Of jade;
The nightly thrills made Adam un-
afraid,
So to the vision in the room he said.
You writin' q scenario?" The
vision raised its head
And solemnly replied. NAY, nay,
bold man;
l here jot down each model movie
fan"
"Of course I'm there" said Abou.
NAY, not So"
Write, then, when on the SCREEN -
said Abou, low,
"A lover fond saluteth his fair miss,
| never make a noise like a kiss"
The vision wrote and vanished. The
next night
1t came again in the selfsame spot
light,
And on the list of those who behaved
best
Abou Ben Film Fans name led all
the rest.

Three defense chemists tes- tified that the. poison was taken in powder form and that the important and accusatory cyanide in the green house was not cyanide of potassium at all, but cyanide of sodium, with only a faint trace of potassium. Dr. McNally, having made further experiments, vol untarily appeared for the defense and corrected his previous testimony to agree with that of the defense, and Dr. Webster, recalled by the state. did so in reply to a hypothetical question on cross examination.
 1t was shown further without contra : diction by every chemist who had a hand in the examination of Marion's stomach content that cyanide of potas- sium caused her death. Only an in consequent trace of sodium appeared. When it was shown in addition that to have taken in the amount of cyanide of potassium found in her stomach

Marion would have to have eaten two pounds of the substance in the green l house, or to have drunk two quarts of a solution made from it. it was ad-
 mitted generally that this substance as the instrument of death had disap- peared from the case.
 The fact that young Orpet might have obtained the greenhouse cyanide had it's parallel in the laboratory of the Deerfield high school attended by Marion The instrument of murder and the instrument of suicide were equally available. The laboratory substance
 was 97 per cent pure cyanide of potas- sium. Marion. on the day before her death, was along in the laboratory out of hours in violation of a school rule.
 The parallel of knowledge of cya-
 hide did not run so straight. Orpet, according to his testimony, had not
 looked at a chemistry text book for two years, while Marion's next lesson which she was preparing included the subject of cyanide of potassium. Or
 pet. however, knew of it's use in the greenhouse as a fumigator. and had read an article on its use in horticul- ture.

ROBERT RUBLE DIES
 IF HEART FAILURE
IRepublican A. p. Leased wirel

DENVER. July l5.-Robert s. Ruble, assistant general passenger agent of the Union Pacific railroad here, died this afternoon from an attack of heart failure. According to his physicians he had suffered three similar attacks in the last month.
 He had been with the Union Pacific for twenty years. MT. Ruble was sta- tioned in Denver before his transfer to San Francisco and New York a num- Der of years ago. Six years ago he was returned to Denver as assistant general passenger agent.
 Mir. Ruble had not been in good health for some time. Thursday he returned from fishing trip in the mountains, and complained of not feel ing we'll A physician was called and today stated he appeared to show some improvement.

His manner was nervous, and he rarely looked at his inquisitor, Att torney Joslyn.
 Early in the case the state developed the theory that Orpet purchased a two ounce bottle from Charles Hassnger. a friend employed in a drug store at Madison, obtained cyanide of potas- sium from an alleged supply in the greenhouse on the Mccormick estate, and made solution of it before re- tiring to bed in the garage. It was charged that he either forced Marion to take it, or deceived her with the explanation that it was medicine.
 The state was unable to persuade any witness to come from Wisconsin, and repeatedly hinted that sinister influence of the defense was at the bottom of it. Hassnger, wanted with reference to the bottle was among those who declined to testify, and no bottle or other container for the poi son was even found. Otto Peterson likewise became persistent absentee, despite the need for his testimony re- garding the alibi letters and as having seen Orpet, according to the latter,

According to these accounts, four small boats were dashed to pieces as fast as they were lowered. Every moment. it was said. 1t appeared as if the tug either would be carried far away from the collier and the line broken.
 As many men from the Hector as could safely enter, tumbled into the boat and the crew of the Wellington pulled at the line to drag the small boat back. Time and again the sur NiVors said the men on the Yelling ton were thrown violently to the deck as the tug tossed in the heavy seas. and it seemed as if each sue ceeding wave would be the one that would swamp the small boat
 The first trip of the rescue boat 10 the Hector and back to the tug with it's lead of men was made again and again during the afternoon until
 
 Captain Newell and 20 of his crew remained aboard the Hector. The members of the colliers crew who had been injured were on the Vel lington where their wounds were bandaged by Annie and Johanna Nelson, daughters of the tug captain who were making a trip down the coast. The two yourg women re- mafned on deck all the time to give first aid to those of the marines and crew of the collier who had received minor cuts and bruises.
 Believing fl impossible to. get more men off the collier. the Wellington steamed for Charleston harbor. having notified other vessels of the collier's position.
 Four hours 0fter dark the Cypress worked her way to the collier and Cartain Johnson called for volun- teers to man life boat.

WOMAN HAD TRUE CHARITY
Proves Possession of the Highest
Christian Character.

There died a short time ago wom-
an who never occupied, or aspired to
occupy, conspicuous position in the
world but who was beloved by all who
knew her. The secret Of her charm
lay In her charity-not the charity of
almsgiving, although she was always
openhanded to those in need-but tbs
broader charity that consists in LEM
ency toward the frailties of others.
When gossip, even gossip not unduly
harsh, assailed man or woman she in
variably met it with the one response:
"Well, now, maybe If you knew all
about the case you'd find the poor man
(or woman) wasn't so much to blame
after all"
What an insight into a Christian
character that remark conveys. Ana
what a lesson in Christian charity II
teaches. 1t is the Ten Commandments
In single sentence. Philosopher or
theologian never uttered a more beau
tiful thought for mankind to ponder
over. Epigram maker never directed
