Battle of Wits Between Attorneys.
A battle of wits ensued at times be-
tween the opposing attorneys for the
prosecution and defense over questions
asked the witnesses, and Judge Frye
was kept busy sustaining or refusing
to sustain objections made. There
were instances when in the heat OF
argument q considerable amount OF
verbal mud singing was engaged in.
When the State rested it's case At
torney Dunnett contended that the
State failed to produce all its evil
dence and was Withholding some. The
State refuted the idea that it had any
thing to hold back other than what
it was entitled to. Judge Frye ruled
that at a preliminary hearing the en-
tire evidence was needed only so fan
as to show probable cause.
The incident occurred over the
States failure, as charged by Mr.. Dun
nett, to produce evidence found at the
autopsy. Attorney General Barber dis
claimed any intention of withholding

Dunnett wished to subpoena the Stat,

BEN FALLS KILLED
AT BROWNS VALLEY
Contents of an S-Guage Shell Strikes
Him in Neck-Head Nearly
Torn Off

Browns Valley Tribune.-This
whole community was completely
stunned when the news was brought
in Yesterday morning that Ben Falls
had been accidentally shot, and was
dead. People could hardly believe
it. But close upon the news came
the body of the unfortunate man.
Yesterday morning, in company
with Merville Monroe, Mr.. Falls had
gone out to hunt for geese. They
were at what is known as Bartlett's
slough, just three or four miles east
of town. Ben had, the night before,
borrowed an 8-guage hammer shot
gun, and it was a shot from this gun
that killed him.
It seems they had gone to the
slough, and Ben had got out of the
car, slipped some shells into the gun,
and was reaching into the car for
his gloves, when in some manner the
gun was discharged, the heavy load
striking him under the chin, almost
literally blowing his head off. Death
must have been almost instantane-
GUS. Merville Monroe, almost par
alyZed with horror, procured the as
sistance of Mr.. Bartlett, and the
body was brought to town. A tele-
phone message was sent to DR.. Hayes,
who started Immediately for the
scene, but he met them on the road,
bringing the body in. Poor Ben was
beyond the assistance of any physi-
clan.
The body was taken to the NOR
tuary of Yeager & Preston, and Mrs
Falls was then told of the awful &C
cident, and the result. The body be-
ing in such a condition that it could
not be embalmed she decided to take
it Immediately to their old home neal
Charles City, Iowa, for burial, anC
the necessary preparations were hur.
riedly made, and the body, accom-
panied by Mrs. Falls, Miss Leila Jens
sen and Merville Monroe, was take1
to Peever, to the Milwaukee road.
Ben Falls had lived here for {
number of years, engaged in the bar
Der business, and his friends we're al
those who enjoyed his acquaintance
It is an extremely sad ending to tn
career of so splendid a young man
The blow is a heavy one for Mrs
Falls his aged parents. He was al
energ. ic, upright citizen, and hi
untimely death will be deepl
mourned.

ESCAPED War-Hurt in City

Minneapolis Journal, Nov. 16.-
Driving war ambulance on she'll
torn roads at black midnight
through showers of projectiles, is a
pretty dangerous business.
But as hazard it can hardly COM
pare with riding in a Minneapolis
motorcab.
This, at least, was the opinion of
Joseph C. McDermott, newspaper
man, as he lay in Hill Crest hospital
today, with a severed artery and
other injuries.
McDermott drove an ambulance on
the French front for six months last
summer and fall. He came through
unhurt, returning to Minneapolis
last Monday.
The ambulance driver took just
one motorcab ride after his return.
That was the last night when he left
the home of his sister, Mrs. T. P.
Foley, 739 Superior street S. E..
bound for the railway station to
catch a train for Clontarf, Mimi.
where his parents live.
While crossing the University OF
Minnesota campus, the machine cast
a wheel or two and somersaulted al
least once, alighting all spraddleC
out. A piece of the wreckage Gu

he was hurried to the hospital, sui
fering from loss of blood. 1t wa
said at the hospital today that h.

A GENERAL S||RVEY 0F
The War.

Thursday. May 3.-The British have
pierced the Oppy line. Sir Douglas
Ha:g's infantry smashed ahead on a
twelve mile front between the region
south of Lens and Cresolles in the
most crushing drive recorded this
wear. The Canadians were in the fore
wher they broke through the wall of
flesh and steel.
A network of formidable trenches,
field works, hills and dugouts fell to
their onslaught and late in the eve
ming the Canadians were firmly estab-
lished in the village Of Fresnoy, to the
southeast of Lens and mile beyond
Arleux, where the last British thrust
had been checked.

two and one half miles, capturing 600
prisoners in the operation.
On the eastern end of the Vaucierc

office adds, the village of Craonne has
been captured by the French. More
than $50 prisoners as well as several
points of support east and north of
Craonne also fell into the hands of
the French forces.
Saturday, May San important
French advance has been made
against powerful opposition along the
road from scissors to Laon, over an
extent of nearly four miles. French
troops have captured all the plateau
in the neighborhood of Cerny and
Craonne and the hills dominating the
valley of the Ailette river. The num-
Der of prisoners captured was 4,300
in addition to the 1000 taken Friday.
Sunday, May 6.-Heavy counter at
tacks by the Germans against the po-
sitions wrested from them by Nj
ville's thrust east of Scissors, on the

Arras, were completely repulsed.
The Allied armies have consolidated
their gains. The French report claims
6,100 prisoners captured in two days.
Monday, May 1.-THE Allied often
sive has opened in Serbia. The French

The proper food for one man may be

adopt a diet suited to his age and &C.

should eat slowly and masticate their
food thoroughly. 1t is also important
that they keep their bowels Irregular.

they should take Chamberlain Tab
