up the dinner party at the Robertson
nome, was a witness before Meyer. He
testified that he carried out the holdup
after planning it with Samuel Gasn, a
telegraph operator who was indicted
with him and Mrs Robertson. He said
he got no money and became so des-
perate that he once thought Of kidnap-
ing Mrs. Robertson's son and taking
him to South America.
Bailey said he had not known Mrs
Robertson prior to the robbery, and
never had spoken to her until he en-
tered her home with a mask on in the
guise of a robber. All the plans for
the holdup were sent to him through
Gasn. he said.
Two railroad men, Carl Fleming and
Harry Jacques. described Balley's trip
to Newark and New York on the Mon
Gay after the robbery. Jacques testi-
fled that Bailey said to him, If | had
the haul that Dave Meyer made Satur-
day night I'd be easy for the rest OF
my lfe.'
Fleming admitted signing an affidavit
last April substantiating Jacques's state

saying he had "heard something but

Bailey pointed out a young woman in
the car and told him that was Mrs.
Robertson. Later Bailey sat down be-
side the woman. he said 1t developed
that the woman was not Mrs. Robertson,
but Miss Olive Robinson, one OF Mrs.
Robertson's guests at the time of the
holdup. Bailey became greatly confused
when asked about the trip to New York.
At first he said that he made It to get a
fountain pen In Newark. but later he
said it was to buy some electrical sup

Harry G. Taber. an awning salesman
and one of the persons at the Robertson
home during the holdup, said Gasn once
had asked him to become member of
the holdup party, but that he had re-

JURORS; CAN'T AGREE
Out 34I-2 Hours, a High
Mark in u. S. Courts Here.

The jury that heard the trial of the
antitrust case of the Government
against the indicted cement manufac-
turers was discharged last night at
1O.3D o'clock by Judge John c. Knox of
the United States District Court after
1t had been considering the case for
thirty-four and a half hours. This is
believed to be record for Federal
juries in this district.
1t seemed possible at 6 o'clock last
night that there might be a verdict.
The jurors had reported that they could
not agree, but under Judge Knox s
questioning an element Of doubt was
uncovered. They, failed. however. to
reach a verdict. and when Judge Knox
summoned them into court at 1880
o'clock -they said it was not possible
for them to agree. They are under
stood to have been about equally
divided.
Judge Knox relieved them from fur
ther jury duty for a period of five
years and discharged them from fur
ther consideration of the case.

vides for deportation Of aliens found

Peculiar Swimming Bird,

The anhinga-meaning "snaky" in
the original Portuguese native of
semi-tropic America, is called water
turkey" because Of the resemblance
of it's tail to turkeys TAIL 1t is also
called "snake-bird' because when it
swims, with it's long neck stretched
out of the water, it looks like a
snake. 1t is equally at home diving
in the water and sailing gracefully
high up in the air. Sometimes it
hunts it's prey under water, Selling
fish with the serrated tip of its bill.
At other times it wheels hawk-like
in the air, bouncing upon it's prey
with the swift precision of bullet.

Search for Black Flower.

Black is a color much sought after
but rarely seen among flowers. There
is black tulip in fiction, but not in
fact, and as is shown at the British
National Dahlia society's exhibition.
there is dahlia which is very nearly
black. Some years ago French pop
by was introduced which was so dark
ly purple that to call it black was a
pardonable exaggeration. OF familiar
flowers, however. the pansy is the only
one with which experimentalists have
had complete success.

Low Race Of Mankind.

The black men Of the outlands Of
Australia are not warriors. But they
are given to bloody. mischief, to fool
ish, wanton murder, accomplished from
ambush or in the dark. In packs they
are truly to be feared by helplessly
inferior force. But they do not make
war. They have no useful domestic
animals, they do not practice agricul-
ture, even of most primitive de-
scription, they have no fixed habita-
tons, but only temporary canopy
or windbreak, of brush. And they are
not in largely more intelligent way

have no hereditary chiefs-no chiefs,

Pansy Sprung From Wild Viola.

The growth of the pansy began over
100 years ago when Lady Mary Bennett,
struck with the beauty of a tiny wilding
viola tri-cOlor, collected some of the
best plants and gave them careful cul-
tivation. The first batch of seedlings
raised by her gave such promise that
systematic selection was at once insti-
tuted and thereafter the Improvement
of the genus was taken up by leading
growers until the plant developed into
what is known today as the pansy.

Americas Rival to Cheops.

The statement has been made that
the Great Mound az Cahokia, ILL.,, ex-
ceeds in cubic contents any of the
Egyptian pyramids. This is a mis-
take. The Pyramid of Cheops is
about $50 feet high; it's base meas
ures 13 acres. The CahOkia mound
is 1O4 feet high; it's base is 16 acres.
1t is, therefore evident that the
pyramid has at least twice the
cubical content Of the Illinois mound.
The stone in the Great Pyramid
would suffice to build a wall around
France five feet high and eighteen
inches thick, following every indenta-
ton and irregularity of the coasts and
frontiers.

The Golden Horn is the name given
to a celebrated curved inlet on the

a northwesterly direction. and is so

The King system works on the prin-
cipal just described, namely that the
warm, foul, moist air in the barn,
because it is lighter, is crowded out
by the fresh, heavier air from the
outside. This system provides for
one or more foul air fues extending
from near the stock floor to a point
above the peak of the barn, and for
intake flues, which let air into the
barn, but are so arranged that the
warm air in the barn cannot get out
through them. The warm air in the
barn cannot go out through these
fiues, because of the pressure of the
heavier, cold ar outside. To get out,
the warm air would have to drop
down through the cold air when the
tendency is for warm air to move up
ward. The outside flues extend down
to the floor so that they draw the foul
air frona the floor and do not take
the warm air from the ceiling"
