Test Of Spruce Gum.

The test Of good chew of spruce
gum is first in the taste, then in the
color. If there is no trace of turpen-
tine in the taste-not more than an
agreeable bitterness as the lump is
first crushed in the mouth, then 1t is
good gum. If, after few minutes
chewing the cud shows pinkish Law
ender shade, then it is perfect gum.

Code of Beauty.

Our code and schedule of beauty is,
I often feel, very formal affair.
Either we are afraid or ashamed to
differ from received opinions, or we
have never thought of revising the
code we adopted in our youth or we
do not really look at things. or we
do not care about beauty at ALA. G.

Cut Glass More frauile.

Cut glass probably would break
more easily than uncut glass. The
pattern in cut glass is cut by means
of grinding wheels. Uncut glass pat
terms are usually nodded. The angles
in cut glass are better defined and
sharper. The cutter also may, In
some places, drive his wheel a little
deeper than in other spots. Obvious
", the glass at such points would be
thinner and more fragile.

ROBBER ESCAPES WITH $3.50

A clever theft escaped with hand
bag at Glenn Springs Tuesday night
after the picnic containing over
$3.50 in silver and currency. The
money belonged to w. H. Starnes,
of Munford, who had been in charge
of a soft drink and confectionery
stand at the picnic. The money was
concealed in cigar box and then
locked in a hand bag and placed on
an inside counter of the soft drink
stand The theft was made in less
than two minutes after Mr.. Stames
had checked his cash and placed the
money on the counter, when his at
tention was called to the opposite
end of the stand. When he return
ed he found his hand bag containing
the money missing, and realized at
once that it had been stolen, and the
thief had escaped unobserved in the
darkness.
Thus far no clue leading to the
guilty party has been suspected, but
officers have been busy, and there
is hope of uncovering evidence as to
who committed the theft.

Real Life Scenario VIII Be
Staged Thursday at Detroit

those in which the portions of Miss
Mlllman's body were found, to a
bridge over Ecorse Greek, not far
from the spot where the dismembered
body was discovered
Despite the convincing proof in the
hands of the authorities it was found
most difficulty matter convict the
accused physician and make him pay
the legal penalty for his alleged
crimes. With the wealth and influ-
ence 1T his command he took advan-
tage of every twist and turn of the
law in an effort to escape going to
trial. When, after having exhausted
every legal resource, he finally faced
the bar he was defended by the best
legal talent that money could procure.
The trial was bitterly fought on both
sides. In the end the physician was
convicted and sentenced to the peni-
Tertiary.
Appeals were taken and other
well-known methods adopted to delay
the beginning of the sentence. But
in the course of time the physician
was taken to State prison to begin his
long sentence.
Before he had been many days be-
hind the bars, however, the verdict of
the trial court was reversed on
technicality by the higher tribunal
ana new trial of the case was or
dered. Thereupon DIR. Fritch. as
dapper and self-confident as before
his conviction, was returned to De-
troit to be tried again
The second trial, as is often the
case, resulted in an acouittaI of the
accused. That night, following the
conclusion of the trial, DR.. Fritch, in
spirit of jubilation following the re-
gaining of his freedom, entertained
the members of the jury at sumptu-
Gus dinner at one of the prominent
downtown hotels.
And now comes the denouement,
and the strangest part of the story.
The foreman of the jury, who sat at
the head of the table that night and
enjoyed the hospitality of DR.. Fritch
is the father of Mrs. Christine Cor
don, for whose death under circum-
stances similar to the Millman case,
DR.. Fritch is now to answer to the
law.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 12-Elements
seldom found outside the pages of
fiction are presented in the case of
DR.. George A. Fritch, well known
Detroit physician, who is TO have a
preliminary examination in court to-
morrow on a charge of manslaughter
in connection with the death of Mrs.
Christine Gordon, following an illegal
operation
The story has it's beginning in
1909, just eight years ago this month.
when a pretty little college widow,
Mabel Millman, of well-known
Michigan family, reared amid the in
fluences of highest culture, met death
in an effort to prevent her family and
acquaintance from learning of her
indiscretion. The grewsone method
to which the illegal practitioner to
whom she had gone IN her trouble re-
sorted in an attempt to hide his part
in her death caused her name to be
banded all over the world.
DR.. Fritch was arrested on a charge
of manslaughter in connection with
the crime. He was arrested shortly
after the dismembered body of the
girl, whose nome was at Ann Arbor,
was taken from a deep creek near
this city. His original arrest was or
dered on charge of suspected muir
der. The facts in the case had been
so carefully hidden that even circum-
stantial evidence sufficient to hold
him without bail was lacking. After a
few days Incarceration he was re-
leased on bonds signed by some of the
most influential men of his home
city.
Meanwhile the police set to work
to uncover positive proof of the ply
sician's guilt. Mabel Millman was
traced to the office of DIR. Fritch.
where she went in company with her
girl chum, the night before she disap-
peared on Aug. 27, 1909. She was
also traced to the same physicians of
flee on the afternoon of the day she
is supposed to have died.
The missing link in the evidence
was furnished by a chauffeur, who
confessed that he had assisted DR..
