Briefly the process is that of add

Darco to the juice. This is heated
and allowed to stand for few min

flannel cloths which arrests this car

is that instead of proceeding in evap-

Man at Fort Meade
Is Not the Missing
Hogansville Banker

Search for J. C. Todd, the Ho
Evansville banker and former Trour
county official who has been miss
ing from his home since November
II, was renewed throughout the
country Thursday when news came
from Fort Meade, Fla, that the
man located there is tourist
named Todd, but not the missing
banker.
DR.. r. w. Todd, of Marietta, son
of the banker, fastened to Fort
Meade Tuesday when the authori-
ties there telegraphed that a man
giving the name of Todd and an
swering the description of his father,
was being held. The wire indicated
that the mans mind was more or
less deranged.
The tourist, according to word re-
ceived here, answered virtually ev-
cry description of the missing bank
err with the exception of being
slightly heavier. He reacheu Fort
Meade and registered at a hotel a
few days after the banker left Ho,
evansville.
Authorities in every city of i'm
portance in the country have been
asked to keep on the lookout for
Mr.. Todd. His relatives and friends
in Hogansville fear he is suffering
with mental trouble.

to obtain from the Somerset c. unity

the shooting of Rev. Edward
Wheeler Hall and Mrs. Eleanor r.

Detectives and state troopers in
Dictated this morning that they were
a present without orders. MIR. Mott,
after the jury filed out, deciding to
lay the matter over, expressed him
self as being in a state of suspended
animation.
New Brunswick and ~omerville
were agog with the collapse Of the
states case yesterday.
In New Brunswick there was evil
dent strong disinclination to per-
NIT the case to fall into the class of
unsolved crimes.
Persons who wish the investiga-
ton continued, pointed hopefully to
the fact that Mrs. Jane Gibson,
hailed by the state as it's star wit
ness, still was under close observa-
ton at her pig farm. This, they
specialized, indicated that the in
quiry was to be pushed further.
The only expression coming from
the home of Mrs. Frances Noel
Hall, widow of this slain rector of
the Episcopal church Of st. John the
Evangelist, was uttered by her law

he sincerely hoped the authorities
would continue their search for the

PO|NCARE AGREES To
ATTEND FARLEY ON
GERMAN INDEMNITY

PARIS, Dec. 1.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press. )-Premier Poincare has
asked Bonar Law to conference of
the France, Italy and Belgium, to be
prime ministers of Great Britain,
held in London December and TO-,
accepted the invitation of Premier
to discuss German reparations. The
discussion will be preliminary to the
prospective Brussels conference.
If Premier Poincare has his way,
the allied statesmen will go direct
conference there will open by De
cember Is. The view in French of
fetal circles is that public opinion
in France will not stand for further
postponement of the Brussels meet
ing, and that every days delay
makes the situation worse.
The provisional moratorium
granted to the Germans at the
Paris conference ends December 81,
another reparations payment is due
in January on the old schedule, and
the French government is unwilling
to accept any temporary make
shift.
There is a disposition in France
to consider favorably a settlement
whereby Germany would be granted
more time in which to pay, provid-
ed she would give productive guar
antees as an assurance of good
faith. The general opinion in po-
litical circles is that M. Poincare
has committed himself so far to a
program Of vigorous action, that, in
the absence of such guarantees he
will be obliged to act or resign.
The plan of penalties discussed at
the recent meeting in the Elysee
palace, although new only in the
details of execution, is also likely to
come up at the London meeting.
The regret of the government at
the full publicity given the Elysee
meeting is said to be due to the fact
that it wished to reserve the first
full statement of the project for Mr.

it is not safe to cross over the Flor.

learned by a number of sportsmen
from this section. Several who have

THE VARIO-COUPLER

Short wave reception is accom-

the use of the vario-coupler. This type
of mductive tuner, or loose-coupIer,
consists essentially of stationary
primary winding and movable sec
ondary winding, which is arranged as
to rcvolve within the magnetic field OF
the primary.
The number of turns in effective use
in the primary windary. and consee-
ouently the amount of inductance, IS
made variable through the medium OF
taps taken from the winding ana
brought out for connection to multi
Hoint switches. The secondary wind
ing NAV also have taps for Increasing
or decreasing the number Of turns but
