have since resided there, making
them pioneers of that section.
Besides her husband, four chill
drcn, NJ. J. Burton and Mrs. J.
II. Smilly of Ft. Collins, Mrs.
James Smiley of Seymour, Miss
ouri. and Mrs. G.. N. Baxter of
Nenango, are left to mourn the

Ninety young men and women

Of this fact by no means conveys
the complete Significance of this

portance to the state.
The graduation of these Young
people does not simply mean that
80 young men and women have
completed IA college course and
prepared themselves to Ike self

significance than that. 1t means
that Colorado has Just 80 more
efficient, loyal and capable citi-
zens, it means that some of them
have been converted into real,
scientific farmers. some of them
into experts who will take the
lead in the development Of the
states resources, some of them
into teachers equipped to incul-
cate into the minds of the coming
generatiors the principles Of al,
agricultural education. some of
them int" capable. scientific

MENDON. June 2.-Robbers. be-
lieved to be experts, forced entrance
into the First state bank here. blew
two doors off the vault and secured
loot amounting to over 5000 and
many valuable papers.
The plumber consisted of $500 -
two-cent stamps and $500 in nickels
and pennies.
A large quantity of currency in
the interior of the vault was un-
touched and it is thought that the
men were frightened away by pass

the job
The robbery. which is one of the
most daring ever attempted in St
Joe county, occurred about mid
night Several residents of the VIII
lage heard a muffled explosion about
11:45, but thought nothing of it.
Charles Rogge. assistant cashier

wide open and the interior in con-

Of the vault were blown from their
hinges and papers were strewn

Rogge notified Sheriff Eli Cupp at

THINK WILLIAMS SENT
LETTERS TO JURYMEN
New Angles Develop in Trial
of Accused MunCie
Prosecutor.

News Times Special Service:
MUNCIE, Ind, June 2.-On May
g. when the special venire of men
reported for jury service for the trial
Of Gene Williams. deputy prose-
cutting attorney, who is being tried
en- charge of having conspired
with Mayor Rollin r. Bunch, and
police officials, TO solicit and accept
brides. il developed that many OF
the veniremen had received a letter
purporting 10 be from the Civic
league, a dry organization which
was active in the prosecution of the
city officials. The letter asked them,
if selected as jurors. TO vote for VIII
liams' conviction. Today the grand
jury. il is reported. received almost
positive evidence that Williams him
self was the instigator of the letters.
Lloyd w. Yount, the states star
witness, on the stand in the trial,
said that Clarence W. Wiley, a
close personal friend of Mayor
Bunch. had offered him IS. 900 TO
leave the city and fail to testify be-
fore the grand jury that returned
the indictments. Yount said he re-
ported the matter to the grand jury
and they advised him TO seeming
ly'' accept the money. Then it was
planned, he said. TO arrest the man
who gave the money. Yount said
one of the grand jurors leaked and
Wiley never showed up with the
money.
Judge Fred Cause said today there
had been an attempt TO tamper with
the jury sworn 70 try Williams case.
on the day the jury was finally Sc
cured. Judge Cause permitted the
jurors to separate for the night.
During the separation. one of the
jurors told Judge Cause, an attempt
had been made TO influence the
jurors action. 1t is expected that an
arrest will be made soon
When the grand jury received evil
6ence pointing to Deputy Pros. Will

Mann promptly agreed To withdraw
from the grand jury room and Judge
Frank Ellis of the circuit court APP
POINTED Wilbur Ryman, who is spe-
cial deputy prosecutor in the Will
hams case. as special prosecutor
before the grand jury.
Robert h. Crabbs, formerly a
cigar merchant, and a lifelong friend
of Mayor Bunch. took the witness
stand this afternoon and told the
jury that he and Mayor Bunch. with
Tim Littleheld. had been in the blind
tiger and gambling business to-
gether and that he frequently paid
the mayor the sum Of $50 a week as
his share of the business.
Clyde Morton. now serving a SEN

for the state. II was learned today.
Morton and Frank Cantwell of In
