I. strong-arm man, to give him a beating, and he did. Result: Hubby had her in court on an attempted murder charge, but she explained to the Judge that she had no intention of assasinat- ing him, but felt that he deserved a licking. Whitehead, she claims. is old enough to be her father. She also told of having to call a policeman to eject another woman from her home, and is now seek ing a divorce The beating cost her a hundred dollars, and she says the satisfaction was worth double that sum.

IT IS SAFE TO SMuCCLE BOOZE AT NIGHT TIME Michigan Prohibition Laws Are Upset by Ruling
 of District Judge. SEIZURES ARE ONLY
 LEGAL IN DAY TIME Washington State Ruling by High Court Also Blow
 to Dry Officials.

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 30.-If any good Detroiter wants to make him. self batch of home brew or run a few quarts of. old fashioned hootch into the United States from Canada, it is all right and he isn't violating the law-if he does it at night
 In substance, that is the ruling of Judge John Faust, who has just re- turned several thousand dollars worth of whiskey, beer, wine and champagne to John Sarvis. just be- cause the sleuths of Uncle Sam made the raid at night.
 The judge ruled that all searches for contraband liquor must be made in the daytime unless the warrant specifically states that search may be made at night.
 Asked to explain his ruling, Judge Faust said that Michigan statutes on prohibition are silent as to the time search and seizure may be made and in the absence of such provi- sion the officers must be governed by the general laws of the state which apply to search and seizure. Under this provision the judge says it has been held time and again that seizure must be made in the daytime unless warrant states that such a search and seizure may be made at night.
 This ruling has called forth a storm of protest from the police and federal liquor agents here, who as- sert that it is impossible for them to tell when they want to search a place after they have secured their evi- dence. for often warrants are issued several days in advance of the actual time Of the raid. It is also said that it is almost impossible to get war rant for any specified time at night.

 Left on Trip Last Year
 Sir Ernest Shackleton left Lon don on August 20, last year. on the sturdy steamship Quest, built espe' cially for the 30,000 mile "trip into the Antarctic.
 The expedition was made possible by the generosity of John Quiller Rowett and Frederick Becker, and was wonderfully armed to explore the innumerable problems of the hidden seas.
 The Prince of Monaco, who is one of the greatest authorities on the ex- ploration of the secret depths of the ocean, lent a quantity of his equip ment. This, coupled with apparatus lent by the admiralty, enabled the scientific staff to sound the ocean to depth of six miles-half mile beyond the deepes, point ever reach ed before.
 Kite and Balloon Work
 The air ministry also lent enthusi astic aid, and specially trained at Pullman two officers who were to un- dertake kite and balloon work. The Quest carried seaplane on special deck which had been prepared Four of the members of the expedition are qualified airmen. Arrangements were made to enable the vessel to travel 10. 900 miles without recoaling.
 The ship was strengthened so that her sides of oak and pine are two feet thick Her bows are armed with steel. and Sir Ernest Shackleton was confident that she would be able to hold her own among the ranging ice bergs of the South Polar seas.
