United States Will Keep
First Line Ships i'm Trim

Washington, July THE United
States will maintain at full efficiency
during the next fiscal year, a mini
mum naval force at sea OF Is first
line battleships, IA cruisers and 81
submarines under decision by the
general board formally approved by
Secretary DENLY. The decision is
viewed as significant in view of the
uncertain status of the Ave powers
naval treaty resulting from the con-
tinued delay of France TO ratify. An
analysis of the complete program
shows the navy will keep at fighting
trim and at sea the full strength al
lotted to the United States under that
treaty.

BLOODHOUNDS NOT
ALL Trustworthy
Louisiana Judge Refuses to Con.
. Vict on Dogs Testimony

New Orleans, July 7.-"Bloodhound
testimony" savors of superstition, &C
cording to Charles A. O'Neill, chief
justice of the Louisiana supreme court
dissenting from a majority opinion
upholding a conviction for murder,
land Is as barparous as witchcraft it.
self" The court affirmed the convic-
ton of Mitchell Davis, of Franklin
parish, found guilty because it was
testified dog followed a trail from
the scene of the murder and brought
up at Davis home quarter mile
away, but the dissenting opinion of
the chief justice has won for the de-
PENDANT rehearing of his petition for
a new trial. Davis was sentenced to
life Imprisonment.
THE ruling that such evidence is
admissible is contrary to the weight
of authority and is violative of the
fundamental right of an accused per-
son to be faced and to cross examine
the witness against him." said the
chief justice. I'm a sense of course
it may be said that the bloodhound
does not testify, that his conduct Is
the subject OF the testimony merely
as the circumstance showing guilt of
the person trailed by the hound, But
this statement, that the bloodhound
does not testify Is only skin deep. The
bloodhound, In such case, is a sup
posed expert witness who cannot give
any reason for his expert opinion of
the guilt of the person whom he trails.
To admit such testimony is the
same as to say that testimony of
lookers-on would be admissible to
prove that a human being with an
abnormal sense of smell trailed the
person on trial and pointed him out
as the guilty party even If the human
being could not give any reason for
his expert opinion. The admnistra-
ton of justice is practical affair.
Some men put more credence in
weird, uncanny, unexplainable cir
cumstances than they accord to sim
pie facts, and some have more faith
even in mediumistic messages from
planchettes and ouija boards. The So
called bloodhound testimony being |
savors of superstition, |
and is as barbarous and dreadful as
itself"

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young-to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels-there's no need of
having a sallow complexion-dark rings
under your eyes-pimples-a bilious
look in your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from
inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on the
liver and bowels, which he gave to his
patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the SUBJ
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.
