81 Years of Service
With Railroad

Henry Blakeley, assistant vice
president, traffic, of the Northern

freight with wagons, oxteams,
mules and horses. and the passengers
with stage coaches. With the de-
velopment of the railroad and the
decline of state and wagon trans
portation, Mr.. Blakeley entered Nor
thern Pacific service as a clerk in
the general freight office Of the
Northern Pacific at St. Paul.
From this small beginning, he ad-
vanced in the Northern Pacific or
ganization, sucessively holding these
positions:
Secretary to the traffic manager,
st. Paul; division freight agent in
charge OF Montana; assistant gen
eral freight agent, St. Paul; general
western freight agent with head
quarters at Tacoma. Washington;
general freight agent, St. Paul;
freight traffic manager and assist
ant vice president.
Except for nine years as general
western freight agent at Tacoma,
Mr.. Blakeley's service with the Nor
thern Pacific was chiefly in the
general office, St. Paul. He was
general freight agent from 1914 to
1921, then freight traffic manager
until 1924, when he was appointed
assistant vice president, traffic de-
partment.
Mr.. Blakeley is widely known
among railroad traffic officials and
shippers, not only in the Northwest
but throughout the entire country.

Attorneys Expect to Have
Second Panel Sworn in
BY End of Week
(By The Associated Press)

Chicago, June 4.--Another special
venire Of 100 men reported today for
examinations in the tedious process
of selection of jurors for the trial
/. of William d. Shepherd, charged
with the murder Of William NJ. Nc
Clintock, which is in it's third week.
The states attorney and first as
sistant, George f. Doeman, in active
charge of the prosecution, expressed
the belief that the second panei Of
four men would be chosen and sworn
in by the end of the week. Two men
Of that panel already have been ten
tatively accepted by both sides.
Efforts to obtain jury in the
trial were enlivened late yesterday
by a defense attack on Harry Olso:,
chief justice of Chicago's municipal
courts and chief figure in the inves-
tigation which resulted in Shepherds
Indictment and trial.
In questioning Carl Bjelland, q
young venireman, of Norwegian ex
traction, William Scott Stewart, chief
of Shepherds counsel, accused
Judge Olson of being vicious, vim
dicative and back of the prosecu-
ton, and after objections of the pro-
secution had halted his examination,
Stewart said to Judge Thomas J..
Lynch:
eve intend to show by testimony
Of witnesses that Judge Olson want
ed to be made the guardian of Billy
McClintock, and that if he were he
never would have to bother about
politics or practicing law again.
1--WE intend to show by another
witness that Judge Olson has made
deal with the McClintock heirs
whereby he hopes to get a part Of
Bills money for the widow Of DR..
Oscar Olson"
Stewart insisted he was qualifying
the veniremen on the matter of ma
tionality, Judge Olson's forebears
being of Swedish extraction.
Judge Lynch permitted Stewart to
rephrase his statement as a ques-
tion.
Dramatically announcing himself
as defender Of the dead" Judge o.

of young M1Jlintock, for 16 years

youths death by typhoid fever had

Vampire Talks of Wives.

IF one wanted Information on the
cultivation of flowers and fruit it
would be well to consult Luther Bur-
bank. Thomas Edison might easily
be supposed TO have some light to
throw on the subject of electricity.
But since love was to be the subject
under consideration there seemed no
cne fitted to discuss the matter with
greater authority than Theda Bara,
the screen S first and most famous
vampire.
And what do you suppose, wives
and sweethearts, was Miss Baras first
bit Of advice?
Loves greatest ally?" she began
with Shrug. Without question it is
the cultivation of a sense of humor.
No matter how deeply two people
love each other. matters on which
they disagree are certain TO arise. But
there are laughable angles in every
quarrel, and, If both parties, or even
the injured one, can see this, the
strained situation is quite likely to ad-
just itself. Love that laughs is the
love that lasts.
Mature provides every woman with
the qualities of a potential vamp,"
Miss Bara explains. only some
women permit these instincts to lie
dormant. A wife Is apt to become un-
duly sentimental and sympathetic and
permit herself to be taken for granted.
This is a vast mistake. Learn from
