MILTON BOUND IN
 MURDERER's SKIN

LONDON, June 16.-In the public library at Exter is a copy of Milton's poems bound in the skin of a wife murderer. The criminal whose skin adorns the book was George Cudmore, who was convicted with woman as- sociate of poisoning his wife in 1929. He was executed in 1880. "The skin is of dull ivory color and quite soft and nice to the touch," writes the Exter newspaper man who dug up the volume.

 A month after the wedding the first tilt comes off and both parties srongly voice their opinions of independ- ence. At a wedding, more fuss is raised over the bride than the groom. She is smothered with all the atten- ton, which is just another

IT PAYS TO CARE
FOR FARM MACHINERY
Neglect of implements Causes One
Of the Biggest Leaks In Farm.
ing Business.

One Of the biggest leaks in the
farming business is caused by the
lack Of care given farm implements
and machinery, according to E. B. Do
ran, assistant professor Of agronomy.
Louisiana State University. THE
care Of farm machinery" says Mr..
Doran, means (D protecting it from
the weather; (2) seeing that 1T IS
properly operated, we'll fabricated
and doing only the work for which II
was built; and (3) making sure that
It is at all times in good working
order for the sake of the machine
itself and to avoid loss of time 'l'
the field.
1.-THE necessity for taking goou
care of farm implements is more ;"
tai than ever before. The prices
ora high and materials are scarce
aven though the war is over. And me
probabilities are that this condition
will continue for several years
longer.
Assist in the period of recon
struction by conserving, farm equip
ment. Put money in your pocket by
taking care of your farm implements
Isn't that kind of money making al
worth while as some other kinds"

WICKITES WILL :. TRY, TO WIN BY
 PUSSY FOOTING
Movement on Foot to Cap ture Election for Wicker sham by Surprising
 Opponents.

VALDEZ, May 16- An attempt was made yesterday to take testi- mony in the alleged Wickersham Delegateship contest before, I. Ham burger, Notary Public. J. l.. Reed, local lawyer, who was defeated for election to the House of Repre- sentatives last Fall represented Wickersham. A. J. Dimond repre- ,ented the witnesses.
 Attorney Dimond asked the No. tary Public to show by what author ity he acted, and the Notary replied that he had been advised by Wicker sham that he had legally filed a contest with the Clerk of the House of Representatives as required by law When asked for further proof of his authority than the statement of Wickersham, he said he had none. MT Dimond then asked Attorney Reed to produce proof that contest was being tried, and he said he had no proof
 Attorney Reed then objected to 'He LII AlIOIucy saying that witnesses were not er- titled to representation by counsGl. MT Dimond replied that he was present for the witnesses under the provisions of law, and he advised the witnesses ,o answer no questions. He stated that the witnesses were ready and willing to give testimony in any legal proceeding, but that the present proceedings were d farce
 Witnesses were then called and refused to answer to their name ], or other questions put to them.
 Attorney Dimond then registered protest to the whole proceedings, including the issuance of the sub pcenas. He characterized it all as al abuse of judicial process, and charged that Wickersham was fully aware of the fact when he requested the issuance of writs.
 Wick Only Wants Some Testimony
 Attorney Reed excused Capt Faust and Sergeant Odle before the at tempt was made tc introduce testi- mony. Sergeant Odle explained that the reason he was excused was that he met Wickersham on the street, and told the latter that he was a Republican Wickersham replied, then pay no attention to the sub- poena."
 Add To Outraged Feelings
 The proceedings yesterda added to the feeling of outrage that pre- vails here over the attempt of Wick ersham to impose on officials and the voters of this town.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-Secre- tary Franklyh K. Lane and members of the House and Senate have agreed on legislation to enable soldiers to homestead public lands.
 The bill provides for an advance of 2,50O to each soldier homestead, the establishment of civic commun- ity centers for groups of farmers, and other employment for soldiers while they are developing public lands.
 Secretary Lane contended that not only was it due the returning soldiers, but it would prove a pay ing investment to the United States because of the extra wealth created and the additional revenue from taxes which would accrue.

GOVERNOR OF PHILIPPINES
 TAKES A BRIDE
The Bride of 18 Well Known to AIaskans and Others Who Attended Univers-
 ity of Washington.

CHICAGO, May 16.-Francis Bur ton Harrison, Governor of the Phil ippines, aged 45 years, was married last evening to Miss Elizabeth Wrent- more, aged IS, student of the Uni versity of California, against the wishes of the latter's parents. News was received yesterday that Mrs Mabel Judson Harrison had secured divorce in San Francisco.
 Miss Wrentmore was raised in the Philippines where her father is dean of the university. She started college at the University of Wash ington in 1916 and became affiliat- ed with the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. She was prominent in school activities and an enthusiastic athlete. She was taken out of the school on account of i'll health and retl rned to her home in the Phil ippines. Rumor then started that there was more than mere friendship in the acquaintance of the Governor of the Islands and the young daugh- ter of the dean of the university. Mrs. Wrentmore then hustled her daughter off to school in Berkeley and all was well until a few weeks ago when the intention of Miss Wrentmore to marry Gov. Harrison became known Her mother denied the report and forbade the match, saving that her daughters head had been turned by the attention of an older man.
 Miss Wrentmore is Gov. Harrison's third wife.
