FABRICATION OF RIVER TO
 BANIsH PITTSBURGH FoGs

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 27.-Pittsburgh fogs may be solved this winter by To- cal scientists.
 fabrication of the Monongahela riV- CT is the keynote of an idea which IS being developed at the Mellon 1nstl- tute. Dr. H. B. Weller, dean of the school of mines of the University or Pittsburgh and officials of the war de nartment and weather bureau are CO., operating.
 The Monongahela, according. to sci entists is the chief villain in Pltts- burg's fog troubles. The river, whlch is warmer than the air gives up DOT tion of it's water which rises a va DOT and quickly cools.
 A satisfactory spray has been dls- covered, Dean Meller has announced in preliminary tests this spray covered small areas of water and was only one twenty-ffths of an inch as thick as the ordinary oil film used to kill mos quitoes.
 The first experiment will be made in few days. The bombardment will be from a tug. Specially constructed nozzles will be used to spray an area of about one mile Subsequent activi ties will depend upon this test.

 STRENGTH REQUIRED

WASHINGTON, October 27-Presi-
 dent Harding yesterday despatched a

MAJORITY VERDICT WOULD CONVICT
 UNDER NEW CODE: JUDGE AUTOMATICALLY DlSQUAI. HEED IN CASES, OF ALLEGED
 PREJUDICE

TALLAHASSEE Fla, Oct. 27.-Re commendation that the State lega code be amended so that the majorit! yerdicts in both criminal and civi cases would suffice was contained ill the report of circuit judges who met here at the call of Governor Cary A Hardee to formulate a proposed revis ion to the legislature at it's next ses- sion.
 The judges recommended that ln cases where a jury of twelve men is required, the verdict of eleven men Is accepted, while in panels of six men the opinion of five should prevail. Un- der the present state law, all except capital cases are tried by juries of siN men.
 Another recommendation deals with present procedure under which judge is automatically disqualified in cas- where two electors sign affidavits thai he is prejudiced. The judges suggested that the presiding judge be allowed to sit in judgment of himself in determ1n ing whether he would be preJud1ced Il the allegations set forth in the two ar fidavits were true. AS an effort to thwart the freeing of law vlolators or technicalities, the judges conference proposed that the state be given th right of appeal from the judgment O the lower courts where cases are dls missed on demurrer, quashed 1ndlct ments or the like.
 The provision in the code that coun sel for the defendant shall have Ii" last argument before the jury Whel the defendant does not take the stan' would be eliminated in the propose" changes The conference also adopted covarnor Hardee's suggestion that ts:e iu~y selection method be stabalized by establishment in each county of JufI commission, who would draw up 10 prospective jury service the names O. not less than 290 nor more than 5cy qualified '.male" persons. This with z view to improving the personnel juries.
 No provision has been made in this state as yet for service on juries by women.
 The present law also would De amended to allow the removal for tlia' to another county of criminals when in the opinion of the governor, circuit judge or sheriff, fair trial would not be accorded in the immediate commun- ity

In sad but loving remembrance of our dear bah!
and grandson Lester l.. Caple. who departei
this life three months ago today. May Is, 1922.
We did our best God only knew.
To help you to this world go through:
For some cause we cannot tell.
God took you home with Him to dwell.
A precious one from us has gone.
A voice we loved is still
A place is vacant in our home.
Which never can be filled.
Our heart is crushed and wounded.
Our life is lonely and sad
With only the presence of our dear Leonard,
Could ever make us glad.
Oh how sudden was the summons
When word cnme that he was dead
Oh. that had been present.
The good might have done.
Before God called you home.
By his loving Father and Mother.
Who loved him best.
We never can forget you.
While in this world we stay.
And our heart has never been the same,
Since you have passed away.
Unknown and forgotten. by some you may be,
But the grave that contains you.
Will never be forgotten by me.
No one knows the silent heartache.
Only those who have lost a loving one can tell,
of the grief that born in silence.
OF the one we loved so well.
BY his loving Grandfather and Grandmothe
Mann.
