MURDERER OF 3
YOUNG CHILDREN
TO Sc PRODUCED
Counsel For the Defense
Springs Sensation In
Wakelin Trial.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. civilian
r. Scharton, counsel for Joseph and
Sarah Ann Wakelin, on trial here for
manslaughter in connection with the
death of their seven year old daugh-
ter Loretta, declared in his opening
today that he would produce wit
ness who would reveal the name OF
the murderer and relate in detail the
mans confession as to how the child
was killed.
This statement, made Immediately
after the court had denied motion
by the defense to order a verdict Of
acquittal as to Mrs. Wakelin, thrilled
the court room crowd with the ex-
pectation Of hearing the most sensa-
tional, testimony presented since the
opening of the case 10 days ago.
Wakelin and his wife, Mr.. Scharton
said; would go on the stand to make
vehement denial of the charge.
"a witness will go on the stand in
this court the lawyer said, land
give you the name Of the man who
confessed to him that he killed Lo-
retta Wakelin in the woods near
Melrose while she was on her way to
school. This witness will show
through the murderer's confession
that he committed similar crimes in
Chicopee and Ho1yoke, an innocent
child in each case being his victim. -
The only recent known case of child
murder in Chicopee was that for
which Francis Ducharme was con-
victed and electrocuted in the state
prison on Sept II.
It was inti1nated that this testi-
mony might not be offered until the
| Wakelins had been heard.
In denying the motion for the &C
quittal Of Mrs. Wake1in. Judge Keat.
| ing told the jury that as the defenss
had rested its case SO far as she wa:
concerned, no other evidence was tt

MiIIsis' "Trust Me-

A lady and gentleman were standing
before a picture by Millais called
Trust Me-" in which an elderly squire
confronts his daughter, who holds q
letter behind her back
The picture admits OF more explana-
lions than one, for Mr.. MiIlais had
that rare faculty of putting blended
expressions into his faces which puz-
zle us, as the expressions Of real
faces do.
But the one this gentleman was over
heard giving his companion is as new,
we are bound to say, to the painter
as to our readers. "You see," he said,
"she has got a letter In her hand
which she is keeping back from the
man in the red coat. Well, he is the
postman and has just given her the
letter. 1 suppose it's from abroad
She hasn't the money to pay the post
age, SO she says, Trust me-"
The explanation was given with per
feet gravity and in apparent good
faith.-London Mail.

Animals In Fire.

Most animals are afraid of fire and
win flee from 1t in terror. To others
there is a fascination about a flame,
and they will walk into it even though
tortured by the heat.
A horse in a burning stable goes mad
with fear, but dog is as cool In a
fire as at any time. He keeps his nose
down to the floor, where the air is pur-
est, and sets himself calmly to finding
his way out. Cats in fire cry piteous-
ly. They hide their faces from the
light and crouch in corners. When
their rescuer lifts them they are, as a
rule, quite docile and subdued, never
biting or scratching.
Birds seem to be hypnotized by fire
and keep perfectly still. Even the 10
quacious parrot in a fire has nothing to
say. Cows, like dogs. do not show
alarm. They are easy to lead forth
and often find their way out them
selves.-London Answers.

Graphite as a Lubricant.

Graphite, says the Scientific Ameri-
can, is not a lubricant, but an aid to
keeping a bearing in good working or
der by filling up the minute IRREGULAR
ties of the shaft and bearing and pro-
ducing a beautiful polished surface
and in this way reduces friction. To
get this result only very small guam
tity of graphite is necessary, and il
too much is applied it simply collects
in wads and defeats the purpose In
tended. It follows that the proper way
to use graphite successfully is to mix
thoroughly a small quantity with the
lubricating oil at suitable intervals and
not to apply it continuously, for when
the above mentioned polished surface
is formed it will last quite lolng time
before requiring renewal.
