Jury i'm Williams Murder
Case Completed Fiday--
Witnesses Identify Hughes

After consuming five days time
and examining 95 men IL residents
of Todd County were finally selected
to serve as jurors in the action of the
State of Minnesota against T. w.
Hughes indicted for murder in the
first degree in connection with the
death of Marshal Williams, Long
Prairie, early on the morning of July
20, this year. The jurors selected
are: .. +
F. c.. Gilman, Staples.
Frank Stoutenberg, Stowe Prairie.
George Hager, Little Elk.
L. L. Soper, Moran.
Earl Bundy, Reynolds.
Ole w. Hanger, Willard.

w. J. Donahue, St. Cloud, assist
ing County Attorney William Wood
in the States opening statement to
the jury reviewed the crime and the
character of the testimony the state
would present to prove that Hughes
was guilty of the murder of Marshal
Williams.
Charles H. Luke farmer residing
near the Long Prairie Tourist Park
testified that he saw Buick car with
three men in the Tourist Park Friday
morning July 28th, about 8 o'clock.
This car bore a Wisconsin license on
the front end and generally CORE
sponded with the car in which the
bandits were riding at the time the
crime was committed. He positively
identified Hughes as one of the men
in the party. When Mr.. Luke made
this identification Hughes started to
make a demonstration but was pushed
back into his seat by the three bailiffs
in charge Of him.

Potato Week-Oct. 7 to n an
outstanding success. City and coun-
try papers, farm publications, the
Farm Bureau Federation, the State
Department of Agriculture, civic as

combined forces to create a stronger
demand for Minnesota grown pota-
toes.
The Governors proclamation of
last week setting Oct. TIA as po-
tato week was supplemented by
thousands of posters which urged
consumers, especially small buyers, to
put in winters supply. The aim
was to help potato growers in their
present situation just as the "buy a

years ago helped out southern farm
ers. Articles and cartoons in news

says N. J. Holmberg, state Commits

creased demand is certain to continue

However, nothing that this or any
similar campaign can do will make

An unusually sad and fatal auto

mother Mrs. William Payne, left osa-

to be married later in the day.
1t is not known just exactly how
the accident occurred but the car
turned turtle and landed in the ditch,
breaking the neck of Miss Payne and
killing her instantly and the steering
wheel so badly crushed young Lem
niger that he must have died within
a very few minutes.
Mrs. Payne, the mother, was only
slightly injured but she laid pinned
under the car alone with the bodies OF
her loved ones for over two hours
before passing car discovered her
predicament.
The bodies of the young people
were taken to their homes at Osakls
where they will be buried. Mrs.
Payne is slowly recovering from her
severe shock and injuries. .. .
The young folks were popular IN
the circle in which they moved and
they had expected to return to Osa-
kis Immediately following their mar
rage. The young man was the son
of Carl Leininger, proprietor of the
City Hotel, and the young woman
was the daughter of William Payne.

Automobiles:

Travel on trunk highways, the
state roads marked with official num-
bers on yellow stars, is one-fourth
heavier than last year, according to
the annual trunk route traffic census
announced today by Charles M. Bah
cock, state highway commissioner.
Increases are shown in all kinds Of
motor vehicle traffic but horse-drawn
wagons and buggies dropped again.
Special advances were recorded in the
lighter, medium priced automobiles
and in commercial transport busses
and trucks using the highways.
Traffic on the trunk route system
averages TO vehicles a day, against
less than 565 last year. 1t runs from
5,627 at one of the stations of largest
count, near the Twin Cities, to 38 at
point on the north boundary of the
state. The big increases is held due
in part to the improved roads and the
larger numbers of automobiles owned
in the state and bigger numbers of
tourists from other states.
Traffic was counted at a larger
number of points and some observa-
ton stations were changed to gather
information on which to make decis-
ions on projected improvements. There
are 1874 stations listed this year, COM

Pan Motor Company Goes
Into Hands of Receiver
st. Cloud Organization Takes Steps
to Protect Creditors and Stock
hOlders-COrpOratiO Solvent

Edward E. Clark and R. l. Gale of
st. Cloud we're yesterday appointed
receivers for the Pan Motor TO-, of
St. Cloud. The statement has been
made public that the move was made
for the purpose of conserving and
holding the property intact for the
benefit Of all the creditors and stock
holders of the company. Suits have
recently been filed for claims of
many thousand dollars by the Erie
Foundry Co., and others.
The receivers will take immediate
possession of the property of the COM
pany which they are directed by the
court to keep intact and to operate
it. =
The court found that the company's
assets far exceeded it's liabilities but
that its affairs are in such condition
that it is unable to promptly meet its
obligations and the legal action, be-
came necessary to prevent any credi-
tor from securing preference of his
claim and also to give an opportunity
to a stockholders or creditors organ
ization to effect a rehabilitation OF
the company if possible.
In the filing papers the bare assets
of the company, apart from deferred
assets, capital stock and intangible
good will account, are set forth in
amounts totalling $2,633, 385.63. The
liabilities are given at $500, 061. 18

poor family in the neighborhood.
One day Tommy came home radiant.

The amplitude of the oscillations Will

the potential variations in the plate

VACUUM TUBE USED
AS AN OSCILLAT0R
Transforms Direct Current Ener-
gy Into Undamped Alternating
Current of Any Frequency.

AS an oscillator, a three-electrode
vacuum tube has the property of
transforming the direct current ener-
gy supplied to the plate circuit into
an undamped alternating current of
any desired frequency. BY connect
ing the tube functioning as an oscil-
lator in the proper electrical circuit,
alternating currents have been OBJ
tanned ranging in frequency from one
half cycle per second to 150,OO0,0OO
cycles per second. In fact, a vacuum
tube used as an oscillator is about the
only source Of undamped alternating
current at radio frequency available
for the amateur.
Undamped or continuous wave tel
egraphy and radio telephony are made
possible only by use of the vacuum
tubes.
When the three-electrode vacuum
tube was functiOning as an amplifier
it was explained just how operating
the grid at a midpoint Of the char
acteristic curve caused the plate cur
rent to vary spontaneously with the
grid potential. Not only did the plate

Any disturbance in the circuits
electrically-such as the tuning of
either the A or B battery will cause
a change between the points x and
Y. This change will be transferred
from the plate circuit to the grid cir
cult by the magnetic coupling exist
ing between the two coils L and l..
The frequency at which the tube will
oscillate will depend on the values of
L and l, while the amplitude of the
o%scillator will be determined by the
degree Of coupling that exists between
the two coils L and |.

In Fi:. XXXVI is shown a three

the tube is connected to a circuit con-
tanning an inductance l. and a capac-

quency of the alternator furnishing
the alternating grid potential applied
to the grid circuit at TT. When this
condition is reached, the tuned circuit
between X and Y becomes an infinite
i%mpedance in the external plate cir

tween X and Y are now maximum and
are exact amplitied reproductions of
the potential variations applied to the
grid circuit by the %alternator.
When a three-electrode acuum
tube is used as a source of undamped
alternating current, it is not excited
by an alternator connected to the grid
circuit. Instead some of the output
of the plate circuit is coupled back
to the grid circuit, thus making the
tube self-exciting. Fig. XXXVII shows
how this is accomplished.
In place of the alternator that was
connected across the grid circuit at
TT to externally excite the tube by
applying an alternating current to the
grid circuit, there is an inductance l.

ALL FEEL CHARM OF PARIS
Various Spots May Have Particular
Application, but There Is Variety

The fairy tale of Paris belongs to
all Of us, in whatever terms it may
be told. For some it is Marie An

curiously, by comparison with d rather
worthless queen, the great war pales.
For some it is Napoleon in his cooked
hat and white breeches, and his great
tomb, n of the ingertips of Paris.
For still more it is the Bots and the
elegance and luxury and beautiful
women; and for the rest there is al
ways the particular application--the

press, or perhaps only a great stone
wall, symbol of the centuries over
