District Court Judge Amazed
at Wilfull Change in
Trial Testimony
UNABLE TO FURNISH
BOND; NOW IN JAIL
Bowe and Gagnon Receive
Their Deferred Sentences;
Both Cases Considered

During the liquor trials in the dis
trict court, Frank Storey and John
Musolf, two officers from Duluth,
who had been assisting the state in
it's prosecutions of law violations,
gave testimony wholly without ac-
cord to the facts Of which they were
possessed and during the court pro-
ceedings Judge Stanton remanded
them into the custody of the sheriff.
Charges of perjury were then made
against the accused, and the judge
fixed the bond of each at $500 for
their appearance at the next term Of
court to answer to the indictments.
Changed His Mind.
In the case of John Musolf the
charge, is made that he willfully
wrongfully and unlawfully testified
falsely to the following questions,
which were part of the proceedings
against William Young, charged with
keeping place where intoxicating
liquor was sold:
%. Now, is the man sitting here,
William Young, charged in this in
dictmert, the man who showed you
the room and the man who sold yoa1
the drinks?
A. He is not.
@. And is William Young here
the man who sold the drink that Is
in that bottle that is labeled will
liam Young?"
A. He is not the man."
The above testimony was given at
ter the witness was duly sworn by
the clerk Of court to testify to the
truth under oath.
Companion Does. Also.
Frank Storey, after taking oath to
tell the truth and the whole truth,
testified in the case Of the state
against Joseph Thiebault, charged
with keeping a place. where intoxi-
eating liquor was kept for sale, as
follows:
%. Now I call your attention to
Mr.. Thiebault, the defendant in this
case, sitting behind his counsel, and
ask you whether or not that is the
man who sold you the drlnks?"
A. "No sir, it Is not
@. "That is not the man."
A. NO.
@. "Y0u are sure OF that!
A. II am sure of that"
All matters so being considered
material and corruptly false the &C
cused are committed to the county
jail to answer the indictment as may
be preferred, and the defendants are
awaiting bonds in the county bastile.

SCOUTS IN ENGINEER CORPS.

Lieutenant Gassin of the 303rd engi- neers Is in charge of a group of scouts at New Brunswick, N. J., taking up one of the most interesting features of scouting.
 This corps is designed to lay foun- dation for practical engineering work in the future. The outline of instruc- ton follows:
 Preliminary-Road sketching and reconnaissance, use of compass, pace scales, methods of recording notes, forms for traversing with compass and note book, estimating distances.
 Sketching Board-Contour maps, drainage systems, travelling by map, field work with sketching board.
 Panoramic ketching-Locating ob- jects that are visible, use of vertical and horizontal clock-face system.
 Knots and Lashings-Their use in engineering, rigging tackle, placing sheer poles, lifting weights, construc- ton of trestles.

HATS FOR SHORT AND TALL
Headgear Most Becoming to Woman Below Average Height Compared
 With Others.

Rather large hats are leaders in summer millinery, and sentiment is about equally divided between the poke-shaped affair with narrow back and the hat with wide brim of even width all around.
 A study of types will usually prove to the woman below the average height that if she wants brOad-brimmed hat the one that flares over the face only and is cut narrower at the back Is the most becoming. A hat that has wide hrim all the way around is the best se- lection for the tall beauty. The small hat may be worn by the woman of practically any height. The brimless hat, however, is more trying to the average face than one with a brim to shade the face and soften any lines.

HOP, SKIP AND JUMP MOBILE
Manners Reflected in Style of Clothes Recall Egyptian and Japanese
 Way of Dressing.

The styles of our clothes have been responsible for some very interesting ways of walking. In fact, styles of walking are easily to be traced to the sort of skirts we wear. Or is it the other way around? Do we submit to extremes in skirts according as we are willing to give up the privilege of talk ing comfortable, normal steps?
 This is not the first time we have hobbled. But the hObble of 1919 is Just a little different from the hObble of 1913. For one thing, writes fash ion correspondent, we are not so do: cile about it. We cannot accustom ourselves to 1t, for we have gone un- checked and unhaltered for so many seasons.
 So this seasons hObble is character lzed by something that resembles a hop, skip and jump. We make a val idnt effort as if we hoped any minute to be. able to step forward unchecked, and finally abandon our efforts to progress entirely. Then we either SiNC NI NHlhiAlS IilliIClJ OA GtDdLhOu our tight skirt in favor of one that is wider though not so fashionable
 At the resorts, where women have in other seasons prOmenaded to show their own and to see other WOmens new apparel, and where only those who were too weary or too weak to walk resOrted to the wheel chairs, it has been noticed that there were de- cidedly fewer prOmenaderS among the women and an unusually large de mand for the wheel chairs. The an sWer is not far to seek. No matter how willing, nay, eager, you may be to walk, if your ankles are shackled, you can't do it. Hence you must either stand or consent to be wheeled.
 Eut tNorc is nothing new at all about the hObble step. In fact, the skirt so tight as to force women to take mincing steps seems to have been admired since the dawn of history. Surely, the Egyptian women must have hobbled as much as the young woman of 1919, and the Japanese girl in her narrow hemmed kimOnO cer- tainly never knew the freedom that comes with the skirt that is wide and short.

CONNIE MACK BOOSTS BURRUS
Player Bought Mainly to Take Place of Burns Is Best Youngster He
 Has Seen in Years.

Connie Mack declares he has picked up the most promising looking ball player that has broken into the Ameri- can league since George SiSler arrived. BUrrus, the first baSeman he bought at Columbia, s. C., is the man he boasts of. On his way back to Philadelphia from Columbia, Connie stopped off in Washington and in conversation with the Indians extolled the abilities of his new initial sacker.
 "He can do anything any ball play CT can dO," said the long manager. ''He can hit, run the bases and field He has a few small faults, but all of them can be eliminated easily by ex- perience. And he is smart. He grad uated this year from North Carolina A. and M. university, and from what ! hear has none of the eccentricities with which most of the left handlers are afflicted.
 That Connie should go looking for a first baseman when he had George Burns, whose batting was such a sen sation last year, on his team, may be a great surprise to many, but Burns is emphatic evidence that a ball player can have a sudden reversal of form.
 Burrus was bought especially to displace the former Detroit player.

WASTE COUNTRY MADE RICH
Enormous Rubber Plantation in Su-
matra Developed by American
Industry in Ten Years.

Perhaps the most surprising thing
about the enormous rubber plantation
that covers nearly 100000 acres in
Sumatra, recently described by a
writer In Commerce and Finance, is
that less than ten. years ago one could
have travelled these acres without see
ing a rubber tree. The land was ac-
quired by an American company, and
the rubber trees followed. Today they
count up to something like 5,0Co,c 600,
tended by an army of about 10000 la
bOrers, most of whom come from the
neighboring island of Java. The land
rises to slight eminence overlooking
the sea of rubber trees which stretches
for miles in every direction, with here
and there glimpses of the fine roads
over which motor cars travel the plan
tation on business or carry passengers
between the bungalows of the estate
managers. Sixty-five miles of narrow
gauge railway run through this re-
markshle rubber forest, with every
tree raised in response to the twen-
heth century commercial demand for
rubber.

Newspaper Men "struck."

Probably the first "strike" ever
called at convention of the American
Federation of Labor. and against that
body, was called by the newswriters
assigned to cover the sessions. During
the course of the convention one of the
delegates made criticisms of the way
in which the convention news was ham
died. The newspaper men immediate
ly filed out of the hall and sent word
to the convention that they had gone
on strike. While certain delegates
were branding the newswriters as DOL
sheviki," others insisted that they form
a committee and present their de-
mands. The demands were formulated
and presented. The convention granted
them by reclamation, and the reporters
were given an ovation when they filed
back to their desks, So it was settled.

HANDICAP IN LOSS OF EYE

1t depends largely upon the time of
life at which the eye is lost. By
binocular vision, says the Lancet, we
fuse two slightly dissimilar images
of an object, which are focused upon
the two retinas, and this enables us
to estimate correctly the relative po-
SitiOn or distance of objects. This
power, however, is not confined to
those of us who possess two good
eyes. The man who has been blind in
one eye from infancy possesses it In
