1t was said. This plan vas admitted
as evidence and afterwards Hoover
identified the paper as having been
presented to him by Brown.
/ Snow took the stand in the morn
ing and related the story of his re-
lations with Mrs. Acker and Lang
don in a straightforward way. He
admitted that both had been en-
gagged to secure evidence against
Mrs. Snow.
He denied emphatically that he
ever intended doing away with Mrs.
Snow or he had ever hired any one
to do that. His reason for wanting
to divorce Mrs. Snow. he said, was
to end<her prosecutions" prevent
her further mistreatment of the boy
and end her work of alternating the
affections of the youngster.
Detectives Kelly and Scrivener
verified that Mrs. Acker and Lang
don had admitted to them that
Snow had hired them to murder
Mrs. Snow.
The name of Isaac r. Hit, United
States commissioner here, was

By Mildred Marshall.
SIDONIE.

One of the most charming and in
teresting little names in the femi-
nine category Is Sidonie, heroine of
novels beyond number, and yet
quite commonly in everyday usage.
Sidonie is another of the names
which are derived from places and
means ''of the city of Sidon."
Curiously. Sidonie is the feminine
of one of the most famous mascu-
line names OF Roman history. Her
predecessor was Caius Sollius Apol-
linaris-yes, actually-Sidonius. He
was said to be the most curious
character OF the dark ages. a liter
airy and married bishop of Clermont.
in the fifth century. who, though
possessing a reputation for eX-
treme piety. was vastly different
from the customary conception of
ecclesiastical sanctity.
This good man has been canon
,ized by the church and the ed of
August has been set aside as his
feast day. His only name-sakes
have been women. France first
evolved a Sidonie as Spanish
product. The daughter of George
Podiebrand OF Silesia, was Sidonie.
also called Zedena. AS early as
1888. Sidonie was in vogue in Ger
many.
George Cable, whose military ro-
mances, are still widely read. even
by the growing generation, did
much TO establish the popularity
OF Sidonie here when he so named
the heronie of one of his most popu-
lar books.

protect her from all danger. Mon

the answer. Just set me on the

Let's try it," laughed Nurse Jane.
She broke some eggs into a bowl,
Flip Flop. the lizard boy, washed
his tail nice and clean and then he
began to whip up the eggs with it.
And really, he did even better than
the egg beater. so that soon the
eggs were all frothy and Nurse Jane
could bake the cake. Then Flip
Flop washed the egg batter off his
tail and he and the bunny had some
cake and tea. And IL the carpenter

speaking for the delegation, that
capital and labor are reaching a
better understanding and are be
coming more friendly. If this
friendly feeling continues, we hope
