~'curb market" for Dillon, but the
suggestion did not seem to meet with
general approval. There was no op-
position to the movement to estab-
1ish "curb market but nobody
seemed to enthuse over the idea and
the movement went the way that most
movements go when they are not
backed by public approval. If the
riarket house in the big city is a con-
venient place for seller and buyer to
meet why does not the "curb mar
ket' offer the same convenience to
seller and buyer in the smaller
towns and cities? The seller would

The Yorkville Enquirer says there
was much surprise in the Yorkville
court room the other day when. at
the close of the arguments in a civil
case. one Of the jurors asked the
trial judge to tell him which was the
plaintiff and which was the defend
ant in the case Local attorneys as

The Enquirer, said that never be-
fore in all their experience had they
heard such question asked" 1t is
quite reasonable that lawyer should
express surprise when such a ques-
tion is asked, but there is nothing
surprising about it to the average
layman. The layman does not under

ADMITS IMPOSTER
BACK OF FORGERY
IN NOTE MIDDLE
Mrs. Burkett Says Col. ROose-
welt Might Not Have Got
ten Her Cash.

NEW YORK, oct belief that
someone might have been masquer-
aiding as Col. Theodore Roosevelt
during the republican convention in
Chicago in 1912, was expressed Fri
day by Mrs. Emma p. Burkett at
her trial on a charge OF forging the
former presidents name TO a note
for $4,000.
Mrs. Burkett, who claims that she
received the note in return for
money loaned the colonel. told the
court that not until she had heard
the testimony of other witnesses had
she ever doubted that the man to
whom she asserts she turned over
the cash was her distinguished fell
low countryman.
The testimony of the coloners
widow, however. had raised in her
mind the question OF whether she
had been duped by an imposter, she
said. Mrs. Burkett took the stand
after the lawyer assigned to her case
by the court had told the jury his
Offense would be insanity. despite
the assertion OF the defendant that
she was perfectly sane.
Mrs. Burkett had finished her
direct testimony when adjournment
was taken until Monday.

-Flavius Colglazier, alias Richard
Thorndike, was arrested here Fri
day on a charge Of receiving money
under false pretenses, following a
weeks activity in promoting a vot-
ing contest which he alleged was
backed by the Pasadena CCalif.)

vestigation instituted by the local

Many local young women were in
terested in the contest. Votes were
sold for five cents each and the
young lady having the highest num-
Der was to be sent with all expenses
paid to Pasadena for a ten-day visit

municated with the Pasadena organ
ization and 1t was learned that the
latter did not engage in such con-
tests or back them. Colglazier after
his arrest admitted he had no con-
necion with any such organization
and had no credentials OF any kind.
The contest was to have closed to-
morrow.

Detroit Authorities Follow
New Clue in Triple Stay
ing at Dowagiac.

DOWAGIAC. Oct. 6.-Csss county
authorities were running down 9TH
er theories Friday in their tireless
investigation in the triple Monroe
murder. They have practically de-
cidede to eliminate three colored
men seized in Kent county in their
problem of solution.
The men, Albert Butler, 2S. Elmer
Goens 26, and Stanley Davis, %,
authorities say. have confessed to
the robbery at the Michigan Cen
trail depot Saturday night, Sept. II.
They were driven by Oscar Wyant,
taMcab driver, to a Silver Greek
township swamp where they opened
the safe and got 81 loot.
Police have held Wyant. They
say he was the taxi driver they
hired TO hunt the safe and that he
let them search over the swamp for
several hours. Wyant, they said,
had nowledge Of the exact where
abouts Of the strong box.
Suspicion was cast upon the ne
groes because their operations were
III near proximity of the Monroe
house. They were seen near the
Monroe homestead, but they have
denied emphatically any knowledge
OF the Sayings.
The search for the slayer shifted
again TO Wexford county where it
began with the arrest Of a former
sweetheart of Neva, II. who was
slain with her father and mother.
Monroe lived at sherman, Wex-
ford county. before he moved to
Cass county II years ago. Rela-
tives there told the police he was
called to jury duty at Cadillac and
that he sat in the trial Of a man
charged with manslaughter. There
was a conviction. the informant
said, and the accused was told
that Monroe swayed the jury against
an acQuittal. The sentenced man
is alleged TO have made a threat
that at the end OF his 20 year term
he would look Monroe up.
Sheriff S. P. Wyman, who has
not overlooked a single possible
clue, dispatched Smith and Collins

Commissioner James w Inches Of
