STERNBERG MURDER CASE

The jury in the case of State VS..
Theodore Sternberg, was secured so
the case was commenced on Wednes-
day morning.
Jury-Charles Schmirler, Frankfort;
A. C. Chellis, Wausau; Leonard Guen-
Their, Knowlton; H. Fiebig, Hull; An
ton NUNS, Athens; Lawrence Doyle,
Wausau; o. H. Briese, Wausau; Math.
Berries, Rib Falls; Henry Hackbarth,
Maine; Chas. Brinkman, Day; Carl
Hank, Frankfort; NJ. NJ. Schaetzel,
Reitbrock.
Theodore SternbeTg, a farmer of the
town Of Easton, on the 18th day OF
May, 1916, came home in the evening;
his wife and two daughters had gone
to Wausau to stay the night, leaving
at a home a daughter, Emma, Fred
erick Jacks, Mrs. Sternberg's father,
aged so years, and hired man by the
name Of Rafeldt While the daugh-
ter was out of the house at work and
the hired man attending to work in
the barn, Sternberg pounded up his
father-in-law so that he died on the
following evening. Sternberg at the
time claimed to have no recollection
of what happened. Sternberg was ar
rested and placed in jail and after
wards released on bail. The defense
is that Sternberg was temporarily in
sane when he committed the crime.
On Wednesday the day was taken up
with the testimony of D. S. Burnett
and Miss Emma Sternberg.
The prosecution and defense both
had expert testimony introduced as to
the sanity Of Sternberg. His previous
history was gone into and it is said
he was greatly worried sld talked
much to himself the last year before
the crime. The whole matter of the
evening was threshed out. How, af-
ter the pounding given the aged man,
Sternberg went to the barn and said
to Rafeldt and his daughter that
there was a soldier killed" Going to
the house they found Jacks lying on
the floor, covered with blood and bad
ly injured. They then ran to a neigh
boring farmhouse, told what had hap
pened and soon officers were on the
ground and arrested Sternberg. Many
witnesses testified.
The state rested on Thursday fore
noon and the defense was commenced.
On Saturday many witnesses were
called to testify as to the sanity of the
defendant, and the preponderance of
evidence was that he was not insane.
DR.. Sherman, superintendent of the
state hospital at Winnebago, testified
that he found nothing to indicate in
sanity.

Christmas Trees No Loss

Persistent endeavor on the part of
the advocates of conservation of the
timber supply. says the Providence
Journal, has greatly reduced the loss
es reported during the holiday season
in the northern forests.
In the Adirondacks, for example, it
is stated that the cutting of Christ
mas trees valued at 100000 has
caused no damage, because judgment
was exercised in the selection of the
evergreens to be marketed. Instead
Of denuding large areas, as in pre-
vious years, only the young growth
that interfered with the development
of the largest and best trees was re-
moved. The systematic selection of
Christmas trees thus benefited the for
ests by giving more light and air -
the more valua BILE timber.
1t is regretted that the simple and
sensible rules now being followed in
the Adirondacks were not observed
many years ago. Millions of good
trees have been lost through ignorance
and careieSsness of the owners Of
woodland. At Christmas time the Gus
tom was to strip the ground-there
was no thought of the future. The
Iumbermen were no less destructive
the mature trees were sent to the
sawmlll, while the smaller growth
was cut down and burned lust to
get it out of the way" The reform
was late in coming. but it is fortunate
that at last there is appreciation of
the practical benefits of conservation
in the woods.

Three years ago when we decided to
organize a Christmas Savings Club, we
believed it would be a very acceptable
service.
We believed that the people would like
the plan and find it real solution for their
Christmas problems.
The results have more than justified the
effort we have made.
The Club has grown rapidly and become
an important part of our Service.
The Club Savings idea is capital plan
easy = safe attractive sure.
No wonder it has become SO popular.
1t has solved the Christmas money pro-
blem most beautifully for everyone who
has tried the plan.
Several Million people now belong to these
clubs and MANY MILLIONS OF DOL
LARS are being paid to the Club members
this month-much more than they will
need for their Holiday expenses.
