morning entered its third day. TAX
ing of testimony continued after the
fierce legal battle of Wednesday, when
the defense raised an objection to the
the killing of Reuben GutshaH and
William Ringer.
Battle Lasted Four Hours.
Judge Robert Heller, after listening
four hours to arguments of attorneys
on both sides, ruled that testimony
concerning the other two killings
might be placed before the jury 1t
was the first real blood drawn in the
trial and there is no doubt that it was
a cruel blow to the defense.
The proposition of whether this
testimony might be admitted was one
of the big issues in the case. AS tho
it were a delicate question, however,
both sides appeared to evade open
mention of it the first day. altho the
state lost no opportunity to sandwich
this evidence in with the rest. The
break came when Eugene Bourassa,
a Maple Hill lawyer, said on the wit
ness stand that he could recognize the
skull found in a shed in the rear of
Kings former home. The skull claim
etd to be GutshalPs, was found by
Fred Banta, who has since left the
country and cannot be found. His
testimony is a missing link in the
states chain of evidence, which attor-
neys sought to fill by introducing the
transcript of Banta's testimony in
Kings preliminary hearing on the
charge of killing Gutshan. J. J.
Schenck, attorney for the defense, at
this point raised an objection. Judge
Heller Immediately ordered the jury
from the room.
Settled for All Time.
This point may as well be settled
once and for ALL" he asserted. II will
not send the jury from the room every
time this objection is raised"
Dozens of volumes of reports and
annotations were brought in. Scores
of cases were cited. Attorneys argued
themselves hoarse before the court.
But Judge Heller ruled that the evil
dence might be admitted and left to
the judgment of the jury in view of
the fact that the skeletons were all

state intended to show that King was
in possession of property belonging to

On Three Charges.
"In that event." said Schenck, ''the
/ defendant must defend himself on
three charges, but if acquitted he will
be acquitted on only one"
AS the case progresses one is i'm
pressed with the effective manner il
which the states attorneys have pre-
pared the case. 1t is also evident how
the defense has foreseen just what will
arise and in what a mastery manner
the defense has been prepared. The
trial is battle to the death between
the finest array of attorneys in Kan
sas, and to the lay mind appears as
likely to be decided one way as
another.

Trees GroWinq in a Church.

In the right transept of the parish church of Riss, Herefordshire, Eng land, are two sturdy young elms which rise from the ground at the base of the wall. The story goes that they spring from the grave of the Man of ROSS," a local celebrity of the eighteenth century who did much to beautify the town and neighbor- hood with trees and shrubs The ap- pearance of trees on his grave was regarded as so appropriate that they were allowed to grow. It is more like ly, however, that they were shoots from an elm root outside, which found their way in by an interstice in the masonry.
 The trees fiOurished for many years fin their unusual situation, until some building alterations interfered with them. At present they are leafiess, though one Is said to be showing new signs of life.

Emaciated Bride a Thing of Beauty.

A period of religious instruction is required by Javanese marriage cus- toms for both bride and groom before the marriage ceremony takes place. The young man starts instruction by paying daily visits to the priest of the village, and learning all the complicat- ed phrases which he will have to utter on the day of his wedding. The pupil Is placed in tank of cold water and stays there submerged up to his chin while the priest stands over him and reads the Koran, the performance talk ing place In front of the church. The girl begins her preparations for the great day by several weeks of semi starvation, during which time she takes only sufficient rice and hot wa ter to sustain life. Because of this hunger strike, enforced by custom, she loses considerable weight, an emaci- ated bride being considered thing of beauty on the island of Java.

No. 17-Life's Little Jokes In the past few months, the mar ket has been flooded with bar gain tires, initiated by the so- called two for the price of one hoax and including many makes of mysterious origin and fictit- ious prices. A good many of our unsuspecting and price bewilder- ed tire customers, tantaliZed by these seemingly low unheard-of offerings have bought and are now wondering whether or not they really have received dollar for dollar value even at those bargain prices.
 It is a new departure from the general run of bargain announce .ments when we offer some R O N EST TO GOODNESS STANDARD TIRES, the pro- ducts of well known and long es- tablished tire manufacturers. whose guarantee of satisfaction is backed by long standing rep utatiOn, at real value bargain prices.
