dramatic story of Marian's suicide
under the Three Oaks.
To the chain of human interest
details linked with Orpet's trial had
been added today the story of two
small town telephone operators who
listened in"
Those operators, Miss Mary Dunn
and Mrs. Edith Kennedy, as wit
nesses for the state, declared they
had heard Orpet telephone Marian
the night before she met her death.
Orpet asked Marian to come out
and meet him. the phone girls said,
but Marian told him she couldn't
risk 1t, for her mother was wise
when she was sick.
''Oh I've got something that will
fix It," Orpet replied, according to
the testimony.

Considerable complaint has been
made to the police department over
the premature shooting Of firecrack-
ers and other Fourth OF July COM
bustibles and noise makers. The city
and state ordinances cover this at
tense and II the practice continues
the police department will make ar
rests. Reports come from Main
street and practically all OF the resi-
dence sections of the city, where peO-
pie are violating the laws. The po-
lice will pick up offenders who are
celebrating before the Fourth.
The law provides that no one shall
buy. sell or give away cap pistols,
blank-cartridges caps containing dyna-
mite, and firecrackers more than five
inches long and three quarters OF an
inch in diameter. The law also pro-
vides that there shall be no shooting
of these previous to July Fourth. PEN
alties are provided for violations of
these provisions.
Reports reached the police q night
or two ago that some one in the
Eeighborhood had stayed up until
three o'clock in the morning shooting
firecrackers. Other reports told OF

will pick up offenders and file infor-

is continued. 1t is reported to the
department that men going to and
from work are as persistent violators
of this law, as are boys. The depart
ment expects to make arrests Of the
bicycle riders who do not learn that
the sidewalks are for pedestrians and
the streets for bicycles.
Most Of those who break this law
run along the sidewalks without any

much they knew about it he was
asking them the French for
various English nouns. Turning
to'the smallest boy in the class,
he said:
'Now, tell me, Johnnie, what
do you say for bread and butter?
The little boys eyes frightened
'Thank you, sir.' he replied,
and looked 'expectantly at the
master.
