Fuller jewelry store. This clock
really runs by gravity. but it is so
simply constructed that it is a puz-

been told what makes it run. The
clock has no spring in it, the place of
the spring being taken by gravity.
The clock is suspended upon two up
right bars which pass through the
body of the clock itself and protrude
from the top. There is no other sus

Stillman at Montreal

Montreal, April 10-Testifying in
three tongues, English, French and
Indian, half a dozen inhabitants of
the Quebec woods defended Mrs.
Anne L. Stillman today at the first
Canadian hearing in the divorce suit
brought against her by James A.
Stillman, New York banker.
BY their testimony, the defense
sought to disprove Mr.. Stillman's
charges that his wife miscOnducted
herself at various places along the
ST. Maurice valley with Fred Beau
vais. Indian guide. alleged by the
banker to be the father of three
year-old Guy Stillman. Much of to-
days evidence conflictcd with tes-
timony of witnesses for the plaintiff
who previously had sworn that they
saw improper conduct on the part Of
Mrs. Stillman and Beauvais.
Their conduct in the north woods
during the months preceding the
birth of Guy was described by the
Indians sister, Mrs. Margaret Stacey,
who also was employed az the Still
mans summer camp lear Grand
Anse.
The defense considercd it had made
considerable progress i'll battering
down adverse testimony when Herve
Manchaud left the StaEJ after report
ing from his records Of The boat
movements up and 1jNn the st.
Maurice in the summer of 1919 that
Mrs. Stillman spent Gcl,' four days
at her camp that seaa1n. from June
80 to July 3. 1t was reported at the
end of todays secret SCasar that the
plaintiffs lawyers con. Cdcd this 10
be fact in a forma, stipulation, al
though one of their witnesses, Harry
Grennon, testified In j'cccmber, 1920.
he had looked through keyholes at
the camp and sean Beauvais and
Mrs. Stillman in com, rOmising posi-
tions.
Basil Montour. a IS year old In
dian mason who was working at the
camp in the summer of 1919, said
that when Mrs. Stillman was there,
the scaffolding already had been torn
down. Tom White, another Indian,
corroboratcd Montour.
Then the defense began bolStcring
UP its charge that efforts TO bribe
witnesses to testify against Mrs.
Stillman had been made by J. Albert
Lal'ontainc. of Grande Piles, des-
cribed as IAN agent for James A.
Stillman."
George Giguerc,. laborer Of Grande
Ans. testified, it was reported, that
l.aFontaine met him in June or July,
1920, and asked him if he would like
to go down to New York in an auto
mobile. He said I.aI|Ontaine declared
he had recently talked to Mr.. Still
man at Montreal, and had turned
over two witnesses to the banker. 1t
was about that period-in July, 1920
that Mr.. Stillman sued for divorce
''Do you know anything against
Mrs. Stillman?" Giguere was report
cd to have testified he was asked by
LaFohtainc.
Seven lawycrs-fve from New
York and two residing in Montreal
represented the plaintiff at todays
hearing. The banker also had special
representatives. Guy was represent
cd by his guardian. John f.. Mack.
The hearing will be continued to-
morrow.
