Picking Flowers out of sea.

A recent trip on Chesapeake bay
made by the Fish Hawk of the United
States bureau of fisheries was fruitful
of unusual results By the invitation of
the bureau. Baltimore manufacturer
of artificial flowers accompanied the
party aboard the vessel in order to
ascertain the sources of supply of
form of hydroid which had been dis
covered on previous trips, and had
been found to be of special value for
decorative purposes.
The manufacturer was reported az
very enthusiastic regarding the quality
of the material and the opportunity
of establishing the industry. The ma
terial appears to be abundant, but
patience and persistent effort will I'M
doubtedly be required to induce the
fishermen to develop new form of
fishery. The raw material is valued
at $3.50 a ton.
The bureau is informed that steps
are already being taken preliminary
to the formation of a stock company

M'DANIEL SCORES
NeighbOr Testifies He Saw Mrs.
Mcdaniel at 1885 p. M.
,Upsets Prosecutions Theory
She Was Slain at 1880.

ST Joseph, Mo-, Oct. 6.-Important
testimony in confederation of Prose
cutor McDaniel'S story of the killing
of his wife, was offered the grand jury
today by E. E. Gard, business college
head His testimony tended to upset
the theory of the state that Mrs. Nc
Daniel was killed about 1920 p M.
by her husband before he left home
supposedly to hunt his brother
Gard is understood to have told the
grand jury that Mrs. Mcdaniel walk
ed across her bedroom five minutes
after McDani1e left home, shortly after
IL O'Clock to answer what turned out
to be fake telephone call. McDan-
iel said that he left home at 11:15 to
get his brother who was reported in
the saloon, he failed to find him and
returned home about midnight. Gard
who lived almost opposite the McDan-
iel house, said he arrived home about
IL O'Clock the night of the murder
Saw Mcdaniel Leave in Auto.
He sat on the front porch while his
wife and mother prepared for bed.
About 1880 p. M, Gard said, he saw
Mcdaniel come from the mouse and
hurry away in his automobile. Five
minutes later he saw the shadow of
Mrs Mcdaniel across the bedroom
window. The shades were up, Gard
said, but heavy lace curtains par
TALLY ODSCured the view SIdfO rec
ognized Mrs. Mcdaniel by her profile.
She wore a light colored. fitting
gown, he said.
Gard went tc bed at 11:40 or II As.
and to that time had noticed nothing
unusual in the Mcdaniel home Nc
Daniel returned at midnight or pos
sibly a little later.
The defense will insist that this
shows the murder must have been
committed between 11:45 AID Il mid
night. bearing out McDaniels story.
Gard was asleep when Mcdaniel re-
turned home, at least he dili not hear
the exchange of shots between Nc
Daniel and a supposed assailant. and
knew nothing of the murder until next
morning he testified.

Evidence Completed and Jury
Out at 1:30.

Beginning at a revival meeting, the
Hamilton-Azlein white slave case
closed in the district court today with
a spirited discussion among attorneys
over contents of the Bible.
IF l had known" declared W. E.
Atchison. county attorney. that the
attorney for Mr.. Hamilton was going
to pull the Bible on me, l would have
familiarized myself with it sufficiently
to place my finger on that passage
which reads: Thou shalt not covet thy
neighbours wife -
The discussion took place while the
attorneys were making their closing
arguments today just before the case
went to the jury. Ed Rooney, attorney
for H d. Hamilton. Oakland, retired
farmer, Iikened Mrs. Stella Azlein to
the woman in the Proverbs of Solo
mon.
He quoted from the Scriptures as
follows:
Il beheld among the simple ones
a man void of understanding pass
ing thru the street near her corner.
and he went the way to her house,
in the twilight. in the evening of
the day and the darkness of the
night. And behold there met him a
woman. Her feet abide not
in her house: Now she is in the
streets, now in the broad places and
lieth in wait at every corner. So
she caught him up and kissed him
and with impudent face said unto
him: Come let us take our
fill of love unto the morning. for the
man is not at home. He is gone
long journey. he will come home at
the full moon. With her much fair

JUSTICES EX.SERVANT
ACCUSED OF FORGERY
Wed Reservist When Paroled
from JaiI-On WAY Here.

A nineteen-year-old bride of four
days. wife Of an Austrian army officer
and rcservist and heroine Of a social
investigation, is speeding from Muske.
gon, Mich, to New York 20 stand trial
on a forgery charge. Events have
crowded themselves in the life Of Mary
Zelnik, now Mrs. Teofl Ostradickey, in
the last two weeks.
Two weeks ago the girl was a ser
want in the home of Justice Benjamin
Hoffman. at 271 Seventh Street. She
disappeared. simultaneously Bill Wild
fire, shoemaker, appeared az the Hof
man home with a check for $50, con-
tanning the signature of Hoffman. which
he said he had cashed for the girl.
Investigation revealed that several
stubs from Hoffman's checkbook were
missing. The police were notified that
the signature on the $50 check was
forged. The girl was found in Muske-
gon and arrested.
Social workers investigating condi-
tons in Muskegon's jails found the girl
suffering from her jail environment,
which they said was disgraceful.
Through newspaper publicity they Oh
tanned her parole in custody OF an in
vestigator. On Saturday she married
Ostradickey, employed in a munitions
factory. Last night Detective Davis
left Muskegon with the girl Her hus-
band stayed behind, but paid the ex-
penses Of an Investigator to accom-
pany his wife. She will be arraigned
to-day.
