the party in room 1920.
Semnacher told OF gathering up
Miss Rappe's garments, which he
said were strewn around the room,
leaving all of them in the room to
which she had been removed ex-
cept two torn ones, which he put
in the pocket of his automobile.
His purpose, he testified, was
first, to exhibit them jokingly to
Miss Rappas and secondly to dust
off his machine with them. He
took them back to Los Angeles and
turned them over to the police
there after Arbuckle's arrest.

South Sea island and the handsome
young sculptor who, broken by an un-

During 1917 consumption was:
Whisky, 1854, 1886 gallons; alcohol,

thirty-one gallons each.
During 1920 consumption was:
Whisyek, $751; ,553 gallons, including
rum and gin; alcohol, 22,639,355; beer,
9,231 ,280 barrels.
This shows decrease of 84,060, ,4SE
gallons Of whiskey, 48,441, 1876 gallons
of alcohol and 51,5s6,099 barrels Of
beer of thirty-one gallons each, or ;
total in gallons of 1895, ,169,069.
/ "Granting many millions of gallon
of alcohol and whisky withdrawn TO
