ORPET is SET FREE
JURY REACHES VERDICT OF
ACQUITTAL ON Sd BALLOT.
Stupor When Finding Was
Announced.

Waukegan, ILL.,. July 1S.-Will Orpet
is Free
The jury reached a verdict of acquit-
tai after four hours and thirty-nine
minutes deIiberation and three ball
lots. The verdict means the young col
lege student was not responsible, in
the eyes of the law, at least, for the
death of Marian Lambert, his one-time
sweetheart, February 8.
Judge DonneIly received the verdict
from James c. O'Shea, the foreman
of the jury. The stuffy little court
room was crowded. The verdict was
read. The words Not guilty" were
heard.
Orpet sat unmoved in his chair as
though he was in a stupor. He was
not the same win Orpet who had sat
in the courtroom for the past two
mOnths-calm, cynical, sneering. Be
side the defendant were his mother,
Mrs. Edward Orpet, and Mrs, Edwin
Taylor, his landlady in Madison, Wis.
The mother of the boy burst into
tears when she realized he was free.
From the very first day of his impris-
onment she had stood by him.

BAD ROADS CAUSE Sig LOSS
Dairy and Food Commissioner WeiaIe
Estimates Badger Farmers Lost
$4,000 In May and June.

Madison-Bad roads cost almost
5000, 600 to the dairy farmers of Wis
consin in the months of May and June.
This does not refer to all the loss
caused by bad roads. but merely to
that one feature of loss, the delay in
delivery to the creameries.
Such is the statement issued by the
Good Roads association of Wisconsin
in its campaign for better and more
continuous highways, 1t is issued on
the authority of State Dairy and Food
Commissioner George Weigle, based
on the prices and information re-
ceived from throughout the state dur
ing these two months.
May and June were exceedingly
rC&ny months. This resulted in slow
and infrequent deliveries of cream -
weekly or twice weekly instead of Oft
ener. 1t is conservatively figured that
because of delay in delivery there was
loss of one-half cent per pound in
the price of butter The approximate
of the output last year was 100000
pounds. One-quarter of the output is
in the months of May and June, which
would mean approximately S4,00o,000
pounds. One-half cent a pound means
loss of $4,000.
