Wis, Another Girl
(By Associated Press.)

WAUKEGAN, Ill, June 1.-THE state
today brought eighteen eighteen-year-old
girls to court to impeach the testimony
of Josephine DAVIS in the trial of Will
H. Orpet for the murder of Marion
Lambert. The girls had attended Mar
ions eighteenth birthday party on Feb
ruary 8, three days before ner death.
Beatrice Wells testified that Marion
seemed happy. She did not see her cry,
as Miss Davis testified, and did not see
Miss Davis and Marion alone.
On cross-examination Attorney Potter
asked:
Did Marion always appear gay-gay-
er than others-as if she were trying to
hide her troubles behind a mask OF
gaiety?'
II wouldn't say that-she just seemed
happy"
Did you see Josephine Davis take
Marion aside into a ROOM" asked Mr.
Dady.
NO, sir" she said.
On cross-examination Attorney Potter
asked
Did Marion ever tell you of intimacy
with any ooy?"

Yes, Marion said she had heard that

Waits in Union Station for
Friend Who Promised to Go
With Him to Give "GreaSerS.
HI"

little old man hobbled creakily into
the waiting room at the Union station
early Friday afternoon and asked the
travellers aid agent If she had seen
another little ola man. She told him
that she hadn't. We'll. he'll meet me
here some time today" went on the
stranger. We're going to Mexico to
fight"
This declaration brought forth an ex-
clamation Of surprise from several per-
sons who happened 10 be close to the
little old man Yes" he continued, I'm
on my way to Mexico. If Uncle Sam
doesn't take me. we're going to Aght
the greasers on our own hook"
The stranger wore a dark gray suit
and medals covered his vest. His hair
was white. he was a little stopped bu.
his eyes were singularly clear and
bright He gives the impression of a
man who has taken good care of him
self.
People flocked around the stranger
when he mentioned Mexico. This is his
story:
MY names George Davis Roberts,
I'm seventy-five years old. 1 just got IN
from Nashville. and I'm waitin' at this
depot for an old friend who says he's
going with me TO New Orleans Al
New Orleans we're going to meet our
other fellows who fought with me in the
Civil war and our crowds goin' to give
them greasers hell"
Roberts says he struggled with the
Twentieth Tennessee regiment from the
beginning to the end of the war be-
tween the states and says he enlisted
in the Spanish-American war, but failed
TO get any farther than Tampa
The old soldier grumbled a bit when
he recalled this incident but positively
declares that they're not going to keep
him from the front during the present
trouble with Mexico. They cheated me
IN that scrap with SPAIN ruefully dee
clared Roberts. but they're not going
TO be able to keep me from taking a
shot at some OF those derned greas,
ers."
Can you shoot?" a reporter asked
Roberts.
You bet I can" he replied confident
". Il knew I was going all the time
and I've been practicing for six months
in Nashville"
The little old man made several per-
sons gasp when he drew from his pock-
ct a large roll of bills TO pay for a two
cent newspaper. He said he hadn't read
any war news for several hours, and
had TO see how things were getting
along.

Sta1d Old Mule
PROBES Big Factor
, In European w or

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ITALIAN
ARMY. June 1.-THE black line OF
loaded pack mules, each led by an Al
pine soldier, is one of the strangest
sights to be met in the mountain war
zone. On busy days this line may some
times be seen winding its way from a
valley five miles distant up the noun
tain passes to peaks ten thousand feet
high.
The mule is at once the glory and the
backbone Of the mountain transporta-
ton system Of the Italian army. 1t is
particularly useful because IL is I'M
afraid. Itself bred in the mountains,
often growing under the very noses of
volcanoes and used to grazing while
earthquakes threaten, at the front IL
hardly bricks its ears at artillery noises.
II is estimated that upward of $780,
600 mules are in service in the war
zone. The most of them come from
the Abruzzi mountains in the central
part of Italy, but they have been re-
QUESTIONED from every part of The king
dom, even from Sicily and SARDINIA, to-
gether with their two-wheeled carts
painted with scenes of provincial his
tory.
To this mule in the early part of the
war Italy hitched much of her hauling
and carrying and today. with plenty
of fine roads and new bridges in the
war zone, the mule still keeps pace with
the automobile, the narrow gauge rail-
way and the airline railways OF the high
mountains
This little mule, eleven to thirteen
hands high. often hardly as large as A
Texas pony, is different from other
mules, burros. and evil-tempered beasts.
For one thing. it isn't stubborn. 1t
doesn't flop back it's ears, and lunge
out with both heels. like its American
brother. IL is a patient, willing, hardy,
affectionate animal that climbs a snowy
mountain pass as surely as a cat on a
fence. It is used for carrying up the
mountains every article from a plank
of soft pine to a cannon shell. If the
Italians ever get over the mountains.
they promise to remember the mule that
helped on the job.

MODERN CINDERELLA
MUST FACE TRIAL ON
CHARGE Of MURDER
Ella Monroe Is Accused of
Killing Eva Gregory After
Examination of Footprints in
Mud

LEXINGTON, Ky, June 1S.-The
sharp imprint of high-heeled shoe is
the only answer authorities have been
able to find to the question: Who killed
Eva Gregory? which has stirred the
Blue Glass state from the Ohio river,
the northern boundary, into the heart of
the blue grass region!
In an effort to solve the question, au-
thorities have filed charges against Ella
Monroe. former schoolmate of the dead
girl, and a rival belle in Hardin county
society.
Soon Ella Monroe VIII face the grand
jury in the first case in the history of
historic Kentucky, hotbed of feuds in
other days, in which one girl is ac-
cused of taking the life of another.
In the grand jury room at Elizabeth
town the state will try to show that the
heel imprints found near where Miss
Gregory was shot to death were made

The case is a grim parody on Gin
derella in which the ownership of A
dainty shoe does not lead a prince to
his sweetheart, but leads girl to trial
for murder.

Germans ETpect
Big Gr01n Crops

. BERLIN, June 17.-Everything indi-
Gates that Germany will have unusually
good grain crops this year. From all
parts of the country the reports are
most satisfactory. The winter was
mild, and thus far the spring weather
has been well-nigh ideal.
The rainfall has continued satisfac-
tory in nearly all parts of the country;
hence grain and meadow grass have been
making fine progress. Live stock has
been turned out to grass, and thus the
scarcity of feedstuffs has been relieved.
The greater danger just now for the
grain crops is that there may be re-
lapse of cold weather, which may injure
the we'll advanced plants. Another fac
tor that is expected to increase Ger
many's production of grain and other
crops is that much more land has been
reclaimed and will now come into cult
walton for the first time. The prospects
for an excellent fruit crop are also

WEST POINT WELCOMES
HON. JOSEPH {. POTTLE
Candidate for Governor Is
Given Splendid Reception
Speech Draws Applause
cspecial Dispatch to The Journal)

WEST POINT, Ga. June 17.-Hon.
Joseph E. Pottle. of Milledgeville, came
to West Point a comparative stranger
Friday, yet when he left Saturday
morning he carried with him the prom
Use Of many votes.
Despite the Indictment weather Of Fri
day night and Notwithstanding the
steady rain which fell until half an
hour after the time designated for Colo
mel Pottle to begin his speech at the
auditorium, there was representative
crowd of men present and a number of
ladies'.
Mr.. Pottle had no unkind remarks to
make of his opponents. He expressed
himself as strong for prohibition and
said he had always been a prohibitionist
and would see that the law was en-
forced if governor. He thinks that the
enforcement of the law means protec-
ton to the home.
IF there was a church in every fence
corner and the bells rang all day, a
failure to enforce the law for sixty days
would make a man uneasy about leaving
his loved ones unless the law stood
guardian with the sword for its enforce
ment, if necessary" he asserted.
Mr., Pottle paid a glowing tribute to
President woodrow wilson, arnrmlng
that he was the greatest president that
we had ever known, and the stamp Of
approval would be given him at the
polls in November. He hoped that Mr..
Dorsey would continue to hold the office
of solicitor general for many years to
come; that DIR. Hardeman would con-
tinue 20 minister to the sick and the
afiicted, and that Governor Harris
would retire from office at the expiration
of his present term satisfied with the
great honor that the people had con-
ferred on him for two years, and that
he would, as chief executive of the state,
give the people of Georgia an admins
tratiop that would be satisfactory to all
who believed in the enforcement of the
law.
Colonel Pottle was introduced by
Mayor John T. Johnson. The applause
which frequently greeted the gentleman
from Baldwin was evidence that the
crowd approved of his platform and his
eloquence as a speaker. He denied en-
phatically that any corporation or or
ganization had contributed to his cam
paign fund and said no contributions
would be accepted by him except from
personal friends who believed in his
candidacy and wanted him to win the
race because they thought he was the
man for governor
Many Of his audience remained after
the speaking to congratulate him on his
able speech and assured him they would
be glad to see his ambition gratifed.
On Tuesday night DIR. Hardeman will
address the citizens of West Point in
his candidacy for governor.
