 BOY HANGS IN BALANCE

Knox, Ind, June 3.-The jury trying the case of Cecil Burkett, II, charged with the murder of Benny Slavin, '. was discharged by Judge Will liam Pentecost in circuit court here this morning when it failed to reach an agreement.
 The jury had been in con tinuous deliberation for more than IS hours. It was not learned how many ballots were taken.
 The little Burkett boy smiled when the jury was discharged, apparently not realizing just what it all was about. He will remain at freedom under the same $10,000 bond which was provided after the death of the Slavin boy at Ora, Ind, last Thanksgiving Day.
 Prosecutor J. A. Dilts an nounced later that the case would be brought into court again during the October term.

MAY HAVE MORE SUNSHINE
Sir Oliver Lodge, Scientist, Believes Recent Solar Eruptions Will Re- suit fin P1easanter Weather.

London, June S.-Recent solar eruptions which caused brilliant au- roras and disorganized cable and telegraph service throughout the world may result in the earth re- ceiving an increased quota of sum- shine during the remainder of the year, says Sir Oliver Lodge, the noted scientist. He even ventures the opin- ion that the electrified particles thrown off by the sun during the dis turbance may assist in the develop ment of vegetation and reduce the amount of dust held suspended in the atmosphere.
 Sir Oliver says the magnetic dis turbances that attended the solar eruption were due to a torrent of electrified particles, which constituted a gigantic electric current. This opin- ion is also held by Camille Flammar- ion, the veteran French astronomer.

WOMAN, ALLEGED TO BE
 KNIFE WIELDER, HELD
Arrested As She is About to Board Train-Victim
 Badly Slashed.

Just as she was about to board a train out of this city about S:30 o'clock this morning, Mrs. Pauline of 313 Washington street, was placed under arrest by Detective Sergeant A. J. Richardson on a charge of assau ult- ing Steve Hudinski of 3s Wells street, Hartford, a cousin of her husband.
 The alleged attack, which was car< ried out with a cheese knife, and was a particularly vicious one, occurred about o'clock last night. ina store conducted by Hudinski at the corner of Winter and Spring streets.
 Hudinski was taken to the hospital after he had succeeded in getting out of the reach of the woman, and 1t required IA stitches to close wounds in his left arm. His head was also badly cut. He could give no reason for the attack other than to assume that the woman accused him of being responsible for the sending of let- ter to her husband telling of her al- legged actions with other men
 Hudinski told the police he came to this city to visit his cousin, and a few minutes after his entrance into the store was attacked. At the. police station this morning, following her arrest. and in the presence of her husband, tho woman showed herself to be of a very fiery disposition. 1t has developed that everything was not as it should be in the Hudinskl domicile. it being readily claimed by the husband that the woman's affec- tions for former star boarder has been the cause of domestic strife on many occasions in the past.
 A few months ago the woman com plained to the police that her clothes had been slashed and cut in a dam aging manner. Her husband was questioned at the time, but there was nothing to show that he was connect ed with the affair. Later, her husband was taken to Waterbury to answer to a charge of assault on the man who was reputed to be Mrs. Hudinski's low CT in that city. He proved an alibi and was discharged. Mrs. Hudinski told the police that after her flight from the city last night she spent the night at the Kliby house in Kensing- ton.
