MORE BERGDoLL DEFIANCE.

q The entire Bergdoll case has been of
a nature to reflect seriously on the
conduct Of national affairs. Here was
the case Of the son Of wealthy and
doting mother (of German descent)
being drafted into service Of the
United States, only to evade that
service, then to escape from restraint
by ruse in which army men let them
selves be easy tools, 20 flee to Ger
many, there to defy and deride the eff
forts Of the United States government
while the mother of the draft evader
was seeking by all means at her dis
posal to circumvent the government.
Now comes the chapter in which the
House office building in Washington
was robbed and the box containing all
evidence taken in the Bcrgdoll inves-
tigation stolen and rifed merely Of the
Bergdoll evidence The Vaccinations
In connection with the case nave GOT
to the point where they disgust and
disturb the American people. Speak
er Gillett of the House expresses the
opinion that the theft Of the Berg
doll papers will be Investigated thor
oughly Let that determination be
carried out completely. Let no stone
be unturned to save the United States
government from being further made
the laughing of the entire world
in this connection. The Bergdoll case
has been more 70 less travesty thus
far, it will be admitted even by the
officials Of the government.

The syndicate idea Of publishing
country weekly newspapers Is growing
in Vermont, as many towns give too
small support to their newspapers. The
Ludlow Tribune passes into the hands
of W. G.. Belknap & Co.. publishers Of
the Bellows Falls Times and the Wind

other business, cannot continue unless
it cam be made to pay.-Burlington

JURY SECURED FOR TRIAL OF
 BALL PLAYERS
Actual Taking of Testimony to Start Monday; no Fans
 Will Sit on Jury

CHICAGO, July 15.-- he jury which will decide the guilt or innocence cl the Chicago White SoX players and others indicted on conspiracy charges in connection with the alleged throw ing of the 1919 world series was com- pleted today and the actual trial Of the men will begin Monday.
 The final panel oI four jurors was sworn in late today amid cheering from spectators and Yenirement of the kind which generally greets a ninth inning rally by the home team. More than two weeks had been taken tip in selecting the twelve jurors. ApproXi-. mately 600 persons were questioned by the state and defense attorneys.
 The defense plans to move that the baseball grand jury statements of Ed die Cicotte, Claude Williams anG Joe Jackson, indicted White Sox players, be barred from the trial, and that no reference to them be permitted in the states opening statement. The de- fense will contend that the evidence given the grand jury by these men cannot be used even against them selves, although they signed immunity wavers before testifying. In these statements the three players confess ed to receiving money to throw games and Cicotte admitted that he deliber- ately hit Rath, the first man up in the first game, according to state officials.
 Another motion planned by the de- fense is for dismissal of the last two counts in the indictments. These In- T s-N,, a1, fraud Ray Schalk, White Sox catcher, out of about S1,700, the difference be- tween the winners and losers share in the series money, and to injure and defraud the Chicago American League baseball club. The defense will contend that there is no law GOV ering such charges.
 Sunday defense attorneys will be permitted to interview Bill Burns, who was indicted but who has agreed to turn states evidence They will also talk with Joe Gedeon, another state witness and if they wish, with Billy Maharg, of Philadelphia. Neither Maharg nor Gedeon was indicted.
 The jury is made up of two clerks, two machinists, a telephone repair man, a stationary engineer, the fore man of motor company, a steel worker, salesman, a florist, a hy- draulic press operator and the fore man of stockyards rendering plant All but two are married and their ages run from 30 to 47. All said they understood baseball and occasionally saw major league games, but none has ever played semi-professional or pro fessicnal baseball, and none is stu dent of the game or of the fan" type.

Princeton Player Will Meet Evans
 For Amateur Title

CHICAGO, July 15.-R. E. Knepper, of Sioux City, la, a student at Prince ton University, won the right today to contest with '0bick' Evans, na- tional champion, in the finals tomor- row at Westmoreland for the amateur golf championship, a title now held by Evans for the fifth time. Knepper won his semifinal match by defeat ing George Hartman, Chicago pup lie links golfer, and in a 36-hole contest, while Evans took a step near CT to his prospective sixth crown by eliminating Harrison Johnston, the long driving Minnesota champion, D and 4, the St. Paul player falling off from the spectacular game he eXhib- ited in the earlier rounds.
 Evans outclassed the other three semi-finalists in all departments, e. cept distance with the wooden clubs. For the most part he was on straight line to the hole, seldom over. rarely under and putted well, wn:e Johnston, who frequently drove more than hundred yards, was not so ex- act as to distance or direction and missed several comparatively easy puts. knepper and Hartman got good distance but were not always straight with long shots or deadly Tn approach
 Evans proved his superiority by chalking up 19 pars and seven birdies. or 26 holes in par or better out of 32 played, while Johnston had 20 pars and three birdies. Knepper in his 34 I.,ll T. As.rl,e |. ;.I ies, while Hartman had 16 perrect holes and four under par.
 A comparison of the cards or Evans and Knepper for today's play showed the champion would have been three up to the Iowa contender if they had played each other.

mony being offered to reduce the states charges that Mrs. Kaber plan ned the murder of her husband.
 County Prosecutor Edward c. Stan ton opened the states argument soon after the noon recess. During the half hour he argued, Stanton declar- ed ''the extreme penalty-death in the electric chair-is the justice that is due Eva Catherine Kaber as pay ment for what she did to her hus- band, Daniel Kaber."
 "This was not a hateful, resentful murder by the two assassins. They were to be paid with silver for every drop of Dan Kaber's blood" Stanton said.
 What was her daughter, Marian, playing on the piano as Mrs. Kaber led the assassins. through the house to show them where they would find Tor husband to kill him while he slept?"
 Was she playing "Nearer-My God to Thee for Dan, Kaber whose soul was to go to it's master in less than A hours? ?"
 Following Stanton, defense counsel opened with a plea for mercy for the accused woman. Attorney Francis w. Poulson also explained why the defense had not placed Mrs. Kaber on the witness stand. saying that to have done so would have been inhu- man because Of her physical condi- tion. ,s

 getting that position in his new com pany. Nervously I tore open the let ter. Glad to inform me new field immense opportunities . S6, 900 year-I could have hoped for nothing better.
 That was my first reaction to the letter. Then it occurred to me that this would probably mean oee:AS Edith oftener and oftener, being thrown with her more intimately, re- viving the associations that 1 was anx- ious to forget
 If I took this position could 1 tell Dot the truth about that affair? If she knew, wouldn't it be impossible to associate myself with the other wom- ans father?
 was more than tempted to tear up the letter, and without saying any thing to Dot, write curt refusal.
 But just as that moment she came. Seeing the opened letter in my hand she took it from me and did not ,ry to prevent her.
 No sooner had she glanced at its contents than she threw her arms about me and kissed me enthusiasti- cally.
 Isn't this fine, Tom!" she exclaim- ed Just when we need the money so badly! It ends all our troubles! Bobbie's we'll again, and we can get out of debt. Whats the matter? Why aren't you as glad as I am?"

 Well, please, Tom, don't be so mys- terious about them. What .S it that's worrying you? Goodness knows, I've been worried enough myself these past weeks, not knowing where tie money was coming from to pay the rent or the doctor"

 And now, just when you get a wonderful offer that will mean we can pay cur bills and live in comfort again-just when that happens and anyone would think you'd be tickled to death to grab it, here you have to go and think up a lot of objections to it.
 "I don't know what's on your mind, but for heavens sake get it off and think about your wife and your child little bit.''

YANKEE DRIVERS HURT IN FRANCE

LEMANS, France, July 15.-Driver Joe Murphy and Mechanic Inghbert were injured today when a Deusen- berg racing car, which they were try ing out over the course where the Grand Prix of the automobile club of France will be run, overturned. Both men escaped death through being thrown clear of the car. Murphy sui fered no serious injuries. Inghbert, however. had three ribs broken and will be unable to enter the race on July 25.
 The machine was travelling at a high rate of speed when the accident occurred. A horse hurdled the fence of an adjoining field and stopped in the Is,ddle of the track. Murphy was compelled to swerve sharply and ran into the ditch.
 The three Italian entries have been scratched.
