MADALYNNE MAY
BE REINDICTED
IN CRIME CASE
Attorney Asks That Charge
Be Withdrawn-Cites Law
Defendant Ill.

Los ANGELES, Calf, Nov. 8. -
Madalynne Obenchain, accused with
Arthur Burch of the murder Of John
under the strain. She was reported
to be in state Of complete collapse,
under her physicians care.
The next move in the legal bat
tie was expected from the prosecu-
ton, as Burch's lawyer who Wednes-
day declared his client insane, an
nOunced he would await action by
Dist. Atty. Woolwine.
Madalynne may be re-indicted for
the murder Of Kennedy for the pur-
pose OF defeating the move of Char
les +. Erbstein, her attorney, in ask
ing for the dismissal of the indict-
ment against her on the technical
claim she was not brought TO trial
within 60 days after her arraign-
ment, as required by law.
Seek Reimbursement.
At the district attorneys office, ii
was stated that the re-indictment of
Mrs. Obenchain would be asked be-
fore the county grand jury today or
Friday morning. BY obtaining the
re-indictment of Mrs. Obenchain on
the murder charge, Dist. Atty. Wool
wine will have another 60 days in
which to place her on trial.
The grand jury which has de-
manded an investigation of Wool
wines office may refuse TO re-indict
Mrs. Obenchain on the ground that
it was failure of the prosecution that
she was not tried within the 6O-day
limit after the first indictment.
Should the grade jury refuse to
re-indict Mrs. Obenchain the only
other course open to theh district
attorney was the issuance OF, a COM
plant charging Mrs. Obenchain with
murder.
Accommodating testimony with
which to fight against the demand
that Arthur G. Burch. indicted with
Mrs. O5enchain. be tried for his san
! ity before being placed on trial for
murder was fortified with the ex-
| pert opinion OF Dr. Louis Weber
/ prosecution alienist. and seven aft
davits by persons who have observed
Burch at the county jail. all declar-
ing Burch TO be sane.

Health Talks
 By JOHN B. HUBER. A.M.;MD.
Live, work and sleep in fresh air.
 ANEMIA

In anemia there is either undue
 thinning or impoverishment of the
 blood fluid, or decrease in the number
 of the red blood cells, or inability of
 the red blood ceEJs to hold or sHix'' the hemoglobin, the co1oring matter of the blood. It is the office of the heroglo-
 bin to absorb from the air in the lungs the oxygen, the life giving, the life sustaining gas, for it's use in our
 bodies. In other cases, along with de- crease in the number of the red blood cells, the white blood cells are greatly
 increased; this latter is leukemia, @ very grave disease. Primary or simple anemia is also called chlorosis or green sickness; this is not of itself serious and it is easily
 recovered from. The aiIment affects lack of the right kind of food, over
 work, poor digestion, constipation, tight lacing, and mental stress, anxiety
 and the like are the causes. Green
 sickness is not at all unfrequent among young women who have left their homes in foreign countries and
 have immigrated to far shores. Home sickness here seems to bring on the ailment. In some cases there is de- fective development of the organs of
 circulation, the heart and the blood vessels.
 The skin of such a sufferer is tinged a yellowfsh green There is heart palpftation at the least excitement; and shortness of breath on the slight est exertion. eH1art murrnurs may be heard by the doctor; but those are not necessarily organic and they generally
 disappear with the patients recovery And there is a peculiar venus hum which can, in a quiet room, be heard some feet away from the sufferer whose jugular veins, in the neck, may be quite prominent. In some cases there may be goitre. Such sufferers are very prone to hysterica1 or nervous attacks.
 There should be no delay about the
 cure, lest more serious ailments than | the chlorosis, such as tuberculosis, may develop. Recovery depends upon the removal of the mentioned causes. | Good food rest in the open atr and the administration of iron are the right
 measures. Blaude's iron may with benefit be taken after meals three | times a day for several weeks. Oxygen

DEMOCRAT FOR GOVERNOR.
Bridgeport, Conn.,,

Bridgeport, Conn.,,
 Nov. 18th, 1921. Editor Bridgeport Times:
 Sir:-Atwater for governor, Fitz- gerald for governor In my opinion any Democrat can, and will. be elected governor of Connecticut by a large majority. The parents, the relations and the friends of crippled children, and the transit situation is going to elect a Democrat as governor for Con necticut. The workers have a wonder full weapon in the ballot. They show ed it at the last election and they are going to use it to good advantage at ton in Bridgeport is not going to bring any bouquets to the G. O. P. party.
 A CONSTANT READER. T interviewed one of the old en- ployes of the Connecticut company, a bright man who has the interest of tho Connecticut company at heart When I asked him what he thought Commission to the Conn. O., he re- piled, What is needed in the ruling is-good common sense.''
 A five cent fare in the city limits more people will ride a short dis tance. If the Conn. Go. would sell tickets for 25 cents it would mean still more riders, and the Conn. Go. It certainly is inconsistent for she Conn. Co. to charge 10 cents from Paradise Green, Stratford, Devon, Fairfield, and then charge five cents make two triups a day from their homes ao the factories and especially now when so many me nare working on half time. Any person who pays a ten cent fare is rightfully entitled to a transfer.

TIMES GIVES SERVICE TO
 HUNDREDS

Realizing the unprecedented interest of last Saturday in the Yale-Harvard game the Times not only kept a running account of the contest posted for the bene- fit of a crowd that came and went, and kept large all after noon, but immediately after the game, not only answered hun dreds of telephone calls, but made many voluntary calls, as well.
 Upon receiving the flash telling of the final score, Harvard 10, Yale 8. connection was gotten promptly with practically every hotel, hospital, club, outlying newsstand, and many public in- stitutions, including the County jail, and the score made known. The service was appreciated, for many of the places called had been making futile attempts to get into communication with the Times because of the many calls continually coming in. causing them to receive the ''busy wire'' sie-.aal

The People s Say

The following letter explains how much the Times is appreciated by To- cal boys who are now touring Europe as high class members of the vaude- vile stage and their iEnpressi ons as to the recent election and good re- suits to be expected therefrom:
 Portsmouth, Eng.
 Dear Jim: We surely do appre- ciate our regular copy of the Times. It keeps us in constant touch with home dofngs and is read thoroughly by the three of us. Say, Jim, that AtwateE oloudburst was immense and the way Johnnie CoTtnelI turned the waters on 'tChff' Wilson and his coh orts was surely a shame, but the Dem ocratic chairman proved he had the guns and ammunition and the old home town is bound to benefit by it. Mayor Atwater. we are sure, can be relied upon to make Bridgeport prosperous city and we say good luck to him aind Johnnie Cornel and the Democratic party.
 With best wishes to yourself and Bridgeport friends,
 ONEIL BOYS.
 The above letter is from the O'Nei1 brothers, sons of MT. and Mrs. John J. O'Neil of Wayne street, North End, to "Jim" Coates and tells how far reaching and how appreciated is the Bridgeport Times.
