Jury DisagreeS
In Rouse Trial

After a trial lasting all day Tues
day and until Wednesday noon, the
Jury in the case of Jackson county
versus Ranse Rouse, who was
charged with selling liquor, disa-
greed. Attorney Kelly conducted the
prosecution, assisted by City Attorney
Moore. Porter j. Neff of Medford
defended Mr.. Rouse.
A crowd which packed the city hall
in which the trial was held listened
breathlessly to the tangled mess of
evidence. More than half the spec
tators were women.
The jury was composed of Frank
Jordan, w. o. Dickerson, NJ. F. Syl-
vester, F. D. Wagner, w. II. Day and
H. L. White.
T. r. jefferson was the star wit
ness for the prosecution and spent
over an hour on the stand undergo
ing a grilling cross-examination. JEFF
ferson stated that he had been hired
by the city and county officials to
ferret out bootlegging and intimated
that he was also on other cases. He
claims to be a discharged soldier and
stated that he had been employed in
like work in Honolulu. He stated
that on two occasions he had bought
liquor from the defendant, the prose-
cution centering its case on an Of
fense which it was claimed occurred
on April 10. Jefferson told a story
of giving Rouse two dollars and later
in the day receiving quart of whis-
key. However, he had failed to keep
notes setting down definitely the
facts and made a muddle of his evi-
dence when called back to the stand,
giving a tangled story which contra
dicted his first story in many places
"Blackie" Lowe, young man who
came to Ashland about two months
ago and is engaged in paper hanging,
was associated with Jefferson in most
Of the events brought out. Lowe
claimed, when put on the stand, that
he did not know jefferson was a
"spotter." His evidence and Jeffer-
sons failed to coincide closely re-
garding events which had trans
pired
A quart bottle containing about a
half pint of whiskey was exhibit A
for the prosecution. Attorneys Kelly
and Neff engaged in heated battle
of words in which "pettifogger" and
other appellations were freely ex-
changed, over whether the whiskey
was bonded whiskey or not.
Jefferson's testimony received a
setback when a young man named
Prince was placed on the stand and
swore that he and the spotter had
gone to EIilt together and brought
back two quarts of whiskey of the
same brand as that contained in ex-
hibit A. Prince claimed that Jeffer-
son bought the whiskey. Jefferson
admitted giving Prince the money for
it and claimed that he had advised |
Prince against bringing it over the
line. However, he helped to drink !

univ. OF Maine
War Department Approves of
Military Unit Existing at
the College
AROMATICS AND ALIPHAT-
les IN ORIGINAL FOOTBALL

Orono, Me, Nov. 1.-THE War depart
ment has approved the unit existing here
at the university, which consists of a
regiment and a machine gun company.
Even now that the machine gun company
has been recognized by the War depart
ment, it will probably be a matter of six
months or so before the proper guns are
issued for this organization. The issuing
of the guns Is being held up on account
of the recent mobilization on the Mexican
border. Recently a committee composed
of picked citizens was given the authority
to investigate the matter of just what
class and sort of guns should be issued
to such organizations as we have here at
Maine.
Although not having the guns is going
to be serious handicap in the advance
ment of the work of the COZ pany, still
the time will be used to advantage The
members of the company are to be given
instruction tn tactical work, which will
be immnently important.

Jones will have charge of producing the
lighting effects, according to the ideas Of
the new art of the theatre. which Prof.
Daggett has introduced here this year.
Mr.. Jones and his assistants will work at
various problems of lighting by labora-
