Business Is Good

One of the finest gauges
of a community's prosperity
and good times" is the rela-
tive sale of Injuries, par
ticularly musical instru-
ments. The fact that our
sales during 1925 have eX-
ceeded those of 1924, a very
splendid year, by 500, at
tests the truth of the state
ment that San Antonio's
buying demand is steadily
increasing, that we are in
the midCt of good times.
Not even the hottest sum-
mer on record has been able
to diminish steadily increas-
ing sales. Collections are
on a par with last year, and
we enter the fall season just
as optimistically as the out
look in the spring seemed to
justify.

RUSSELL SCOTT
PLACED IN
ASYLUM
"Celi Shock" Is Verdict
Returned by Jury in
Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. Tn an insane
asylum instead of on the gallows
Russell Scott, erstwhile Canadian fl
Rancicr, will expiate the murder of q
drug clerk in holdup.
Cell shock"-insanity resulting
from 10 months in Jail and the or
deals Of two death watches-was the
verdict of a jury last night in a
sanity test which saved him.
The iury's findings and SCOTS re-
moval to the Chester insane asylum
today, ended fight for life that prob
ably was the most desperate in Cook
county criminal annals.
Seven ballots and three hours and
40 minutes elaboration were neces-
sary before the jury agreed.
Five times since Joseph Maurer
was killed in drug store opposite the
city hall in April, 1924, Scott has
faced death.
SCOTT NERVOUS
Within the last three weeks, few
hours before the death march, Scott
was saved once by weeks reprieye
and again by a stay of execution is
sued at o'clock in the morning by
Judge Joseph David on a petition de-
claring him insane.
Had he been found sane, judge
David would have imposed death
sentence once more.
Ever in the asylum, Scott faces
death on the gallows should he be
ever found to have regained his san
ity.
Warned against demonstrations,
spectators and principals greeted the
verdict with a dramatic silence.
Scott's eyes never left the slip Of
paper the jury foreman passed to a
bailiff, who gave it to the clerk.
His mouth twitched nevously and
he fidgeted.
Judgment entered, he was hurried
away by guards.
WIFE HAPPY
His relatives heard the verdict with
expressions Of emotions.
His wife. Catherine. whose untiring
efforts brought finds after tine de-
Tense fight left the family penniless,
leaned forward in an attitude OF
prayer.
His mother wept and his aged and
crippled father, Thomas, on whose
sixty-third birthday Scott was SEN
fenced, stayed close to his son.
Thank God for the verdict" the
rather said, later. That's what the
poor boy needs is to be sent down
there"
81 knew it would happen" the wife
said. Il have worked and prayed for
this and have not had a nights sleep
in weeks"
Jacob Maurer, father Of the slain
drug-clerk, who attended each day of
the sanity hearing. was disappointed.
Its the law. But / didn't expect
justice. My boy is gone. l find no
consolation in the verdict"
