JURY DISCHARGED IN
 CASE OF GIRL SLAYER

PRESCOTT, June z1-After so hours deliberation the jury trying Mrs. Bernice Anderson on the charge of having murdered John Wilson, a returned soldier, May last, finally reported to day that it was unable to agree and was discharged. The jury stood Il to 1 for acquittal
 The county attorney intimated that the charge against Mrs. Ander- son would not be dismissed, since, he said, the woman had testified that she had shot Wilson and that she would do it again under the same circumstances. It is understood counsel for the defense will make another effort to have the case dis missed and to have Mrs. Anderson committed to an insane asylum.

beauty never to be forgotten. Some
ten miles distant five enormous col
umns of vapor were shooting their
roseate-tinted shafts hundreds of feet
heavenrvard, while the faint roar OF
the falls told US the Mosioa-Tunga-
the smoke that sounds-was no longer
a mystery.
Each moment increased the beauty
and vividness of the scene. With the
first rays of the rising sun came "A
picture of color of wondrous lowell
ness. Delicate tints of violet. GRIM
son and beryl played through the
mounting spray as it shot higher and
higher, ultimately disappearing as viz
gin clouds in heaven. while the ever
increasing thunders of the waters lent
an added solemnity to the view.
Hardly could we wait to reach our
destination, SO great was our enthusi-
asm. But our hopes were doomed to
momentary disappointment, only to
be more than realized after study
of the environment; for, notwith-
standing their magnitude, the first
view of Victoria Falls is decidedly
disappointing.

No Single Visit Sumces.

repeated excursions must be made to
their islands and precipices. their

tropic forests. before their indescrib-
able beauty can be appreciated The

Had the falls been in America the
Indians would surely have named

River Suddenly Disappears.

"Although nearly a mile in width
and 100 feet in height, the grandeur
of their proportions is eclipsed by the
sudden disappearance of the river as
it plunges into narrow, rocky fls-
sure extending across its entire width.
Only at a single central point is there
a breach in this fissure through which
the falls can be seen and appreciated
in their full proportions. where the
converging waters rush madly to the
zigZag canyon below. So restricted
is this view that there is an entire
absence of that awe-inspiring and al
most paralyZing effect which strikes
the visitor dumb with wonder and
amazement when Niagara bursts on
his near vision. On first sight of the

claims, oh, how beautiful. but they

Writer Describes Africa's
Natural Wonder.

while Niagara Falls will continue
to hold their own as IA mecca for
honeymooners and other travellers
they must hencefcrth submit to com
parison with another natural wonder,

Africa becomes frequented by tour
lists" says a bulletin from the Ma
tional Geographic Society.
From being place of mystery. so
feared that Livingstone. who discov-
cred the falls in 1885. had great diff
ficulty in persuading his followers to
accompany him. the falls now are
visible from a railway that crosses
the river half mile below them. and
they lie under the proposed route of
the Cape to Cairo aerial service
which is to be established this au-
tumn.
Writer Gives Description.
Louis Livingstone Seaman. in a
communication to the society, de-
scribes a visit to Victoria Falls and
contrasts them with Niagara, as
follows:
"Our approach was made by rail
from the Indian ocean at Beira. near
the mouth of the Iambesi (that hot
bed of micro niSmS. described by
James Bryce as thg most deadly in
Africa). and across the narrow belt
of swamp and jungle forming the
coast; thence up the gradual slope to
the volcanic plateau that forms the
real continent of Africa.
by morning an altitude of nearly
5000 feet was reached, and a transi
tion from the excessive heat and
moisture of the loWlands was expert
enced that was most grateful and
exhilarating.
This section still abounds with an
telope. elephants. lions and other
large game, which find excellent cover
in the tall elephant grass or the dense
forests and jungles, while in the river
hippos still Gambol and founder in
ungainly herds amid the floating is
lands of rank vegetation OF Nile reeds
and papyrus.
with the altitude. however. came
another and less grateful change. The
forests were no longer in evidenc<.
but in their stead were vast arid
birdless plains. with parched and hun

scarcity of moisture that so severely
affects Rhodesia and the great
stretches of veldt far away to the

PRESIDENT MAY NAME
ANOTHER PEACE ENVOY

That President Wilson is seriously
considering the appointment of an i'd
ditionaI member. of Americas peace
delegation was learned today from
authoritative sources. According to
confidential advices reaching Wash
ington through official channels, the
President inclines to the belief that
during his absence from the confer
ence-for he is to sail for home early
next month-America should be rep
resented at the. peace table by her
full quota of five delegates. Further
more, there are Indications that such
an additional delegate would continue
to represent this country even in the
event that the Chief Executive should
return to France. Since the United
States is allowed but FIVE delegates,
this would mean one of two alterna-
tives:
First-That one Of the four remain
ing elegates-Lansing, House, Bliss,
or White-would have to make way
for the new appointee;
Second-That the President would
carry out his originally announced
intention Of attending the opening
sessions without sitting as a perma-
nent delegate.

R.R. WIRE RULING Of
|. c. c. IS REVERSED

Rulings of lower courts reversing
the interstate commerce decision of
March IS. 1916. which it was claimed
invalidated contracts between rail
roads and telepragh companies, were
affirmed by the Supreme Court today.
The roads and telegraph companies
had contracts for interchange of
service either free or at reduced
rates the roads transporting ma
terials and the company fayoring the
roads in sending messages.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion decision was that the Transport
tation of material by the roads at
low cost was legal where the material
was for use "alOng the lines" OF the
roads but Illegal where the materials
were used of the line"
The telegraph companies declared
they did not know exactly where
they stood and to make test case
refused TO abide by their contracts.
Lower courts ruled against the In
terstate Commerce Commission in
three separate cases.
