There are hundreds Of makes of

of them look alike, it pays to stop
before you buy and ask yourself:
With Simmons building and sell
ing more mattresses than anyother
maker in the world, isn't it rea-
sonable that every Simmons mat
tress is the finest at its price?
Could Simmons afford to risk a

DAYTON, Tenn. July 11.-JudGe
Raulston took well earned rest to-
day. The presiding justice in the
Scopes trial did q big days work
yesterday in administering the rou-
tine of his court. In addition, he
performed another days labor in
shaking hands with numerous friends.
Judge Raulston threatened to clear
the courtroom at one stage when the
spectators, usually in good order. con-
sidering the scores who occupied
crowded standing room, burst into
spontaneous applause. They were
cheering the response of a prospec-
tive juror who told DarroW emphati-
cally that he believed in the Bible.
Representative John Washington
Butler of Macon County, Tenn. was
in court when Judge Raulston
charged the grand jury. II was the
first time the man responsible for
the anti-evolution" bill had heard
the law read in court.
John T. Scopes has been awarded
a degree of doctor of universal reli-
gion by the Liberal Church of Den
yer. The degree authorizes Scopes
to establish "A Liberal Church of
Evolution wherever and whenever
he desires" and clothes him with the
rights of a minister The Liberal
Church was organized five years ago.
The agreement between defense and
prosecution lawyers, which brought
about an adjournment OF court from
Friday afternoon until Monday morn
ing, was without the consent of the
concession holders, who had counted
on continuing yesterdays rush busi-
ness through the week end.
One of the several itinerant musi-
clans, who strolled the courthouse
parkways during yesterdays court
sessions, added a discouraEing note 10
the general heat depression as the
afternoon adjournment was taken. He
walled out the strains of 1T Amt

PRETZFELDER'S DEATH
IS HELD ACCIDENTAL
Blame for Fatal Connecticut Ave
nue. Crash Is Laid to Slippery
Streets.

A verdict Of accidental death was
found by a coroner's jury today at the
inquest into the death of Julian Pretz-
fielder, so years old, who died at
Emergency Hospital early Thursday
from injuries received Wednesday
afternoon when an automobile in
which he was riding. driven by VIII
liam H. Mcclure, 9O1 Pennsylvania
avenue. collided with Capital Trac-
tion Co. street car at Connecticut
avenue and Porter street.
According to testimony of witnesses
at the hearing, many of whom were
on the street car at the time of the
collision, the accident was unavoidable
and was attributed to the slippery
condition of the street following a
rain.
Mcclure, according to witnesses,
was attempting TO pass another auto
mobile when the tires slipped on the
wet surface and his car careened dag
onally into the path of the northbound
street car. Both men in the automo-
bile were taken to Emergency Hospi-
tai, PretZfelder having received a
fractured skull, while Mcclure was
treated for cuts and bruises. The
street car was run by Motorman J.
j. Binkert.

FRANCE SIMPLlFlES
COOLIDGE PROGRAM
FOR RELIEF OF CHINA

Continued from First Page)
John V. A. MacMurray, has arrived
there. Mr. MacMurray until recently
was Assistant Secretary of State in
charge Of Far Eastern affairs and has
made the diplomatic problems relating
to Japan and China a life study; In
fact. he was chief adviser to the
American delegation at the Washing
ton conference of 1921 and 1922.
Start Made on Problem.
Apart from the question of extra
territorial rights in the matter of
leased territory After Shantung was
returned to China by the agreement
of 1922 the British agreed TO eVacuate
Weihaiwei. and France declared her
self willing to begin negotiations for
withdrawal from Kwangchowwang.
Japan declined 10 rehnQuish her hold
on Manchuria and inner Mongolia,
and Great Britain felt it necessary
to keep Kowloon. which is opposite
Hongkong. But a start was made in
the direction of giving up all leased
territory in China, an objective fer
vently proclaimed by the late Presi-
dent Wilson as the ultimate salvation
of China.
The first step is to give China COM
plete self-control on the tariff and
then to observe her efforts to build a
central governments that can be de-
pended upon TO protect the lives and
property of foreigners without the
necessity of extra-territorial rights,
special courts and privileges. Mr.. Kel-
logg comes here to get the guidance
and approval of the President TO the
policies already worked out by the
Secretary and the American Minister
at Peking. Apart from these subjects
the Secretary has a report on the in
formal parleys going on with respect
to the collection of war debts, and 1t
is expected that Mr.. Kellogg will be
instructed to go ahead with his policy
of gently reminding the debtors of
the necessity for soon making some
definite agreement to pay.

PHONE GROWTH FASTER
THAN CITY POPULATIONS
Phones Show '132 Per Cent Increase
Against Only 80 Per Cent
Boost in Census.

The increase in Washington's tele-
phone facilities far exceeds the pro-
portionate growth of population here,
according to a survey just completed
by engineers of the Chesapeake &
Potomac Telephone Co.
The estimated population is now
465, 900, which is an increase of 1866
500 persons in the last 10 years.
There are now 120,532 telephones
in use. or 6S,593 more than were in
service in July, 1915. The increase in
population was about 80 per cent,
while the telephone growth was 1872
per cent.
THE telephone development in
Washington is proceeding very rap
idly" A z. Berry, telephone COM
pany president said today. During
the first six months of this year we
have added 4,765 telephones to the
system.
There are now more than 100000
calls made daily in Washington. By
1880 we estimate that the telephones
in service here will make more than
700, 900 calls daily"

EVOLUTION ,SIDELIGHTS

| on evolution?" was one of the Chicago
lawyers favorite questions. He fire.
quently wished TO know if the pros
pect had heard his minister talk about
evolution. Some had and some couldn't
remember.
Darrow asked every venireman
about his church affiliations.
Darrow appeared to put much store
in how the veniremen felt about opin-
ions of his neighborS. He asked each
candidate if he knew what his neigh
bors thought Of evolution and whether
he cared anything about his neigh
hOr's opinion on the subject. The men
questioned invariably declared that
they cared nothing for the opinions
of their neighbors.
A quick smile saved many Of Oar
rows remarks from the brusqueness
which attaches to them in the cold"
stenographic record. He once asked
the court not to let the prosecution
| lawyers put anything over" on him,
but his jocular grimace kept those
concerned in good humor.
Judge Raulston, in telling the jury
men that they would not be kept to-
gether during the progress of the
trial, warned them TO refrain from
! discussion OF the issues.
Il prefer that you gentlemen not
attend any meeting or any service
where these issues probably would he
discussed. What I want you TO do
! is TO keep your minds open and free
| from anything that might prejudice
| you"
The question Of swearing the jury
| occupied a few minutes yesterday.
| The State did not want the jurymen
| sworn until Monday. so that in case
| a jurvman should become sick over
| the week end. he could be replaced
without a mistrial being ordered, as
would have been the case If the jury
was under oath. The defense favored
the swearing of the jury.
One of the jurors said, in answering
| a question from Darrow, that he was
"uneducated." Darrow asked If he
meant that his eyes were impaired
when he had said earlier than he could
not read. the juror repeating: Il am
| uneducated."
A suggestion that some preacher,
unidentified in court, was not so
| clear as he might have been, was
made when a juror. admitting that he
| had heard A sermon on evolution, said
he could not find out whether the
! sermon was for or against evolution.

DARROW is MADE A "COLONEL'
BY JUDGE IN FIRST REMARKS S
Tennessee's Courtesy Seen in Raising Chicagoan to
Bryan's Rank-Juror Admits He Has
Heard ''RumOr'' of Case.

Bryan old home week here in the
mountains.
During the jury selection Clarence
Darrow had an unusual experience.
He was examining prospective juror
in his usual searching style when
the man yawned long and loud in the
astonished harristers face. That was
enough for the new colonel from Chi
cago. He accepted the juror at once.
There were many amusing incidents
during the selection. Only one juror
admitted having been to hear Mr..
Bryan speak. The judge warned all
the jurors not to attend any Bryan
meetings while on duty.
Have YOU heard much about this
case" asked Col Darrow of one
talisman from far out in the country.
Just a rumor," he replied.
And to another:
Have you heard much about this
case"
Don't know that I have, as the
feller says" replied the juror amid
laughter.
Another juror was like VIII Rogers
''All I know" he said rs what

Preacher Is Excused
One man examined for the jury
turned out to he a preacher. He said
he didn't believe in evolution, had
preached against it. thought it con-
tradicted the Bible and was thorough
ly bad, but felt he could give the
prisoner a fair trial.
You are excused Brother Massen-
gale" drawred the Judge.
The real joy and real class of the
jury is "Cap'n" Jack Thompson. The
"Cap'n" ought to be colonel. He is
a true picture of the Kentucky colonel
and all the time he sat in the jury box
one expected to see an old-fashioned
negro servant enter the room and
place a frosted mint julep in front of
the "Cap'n" place. The "Cap'n' is
tall heavy, white haired. with white
mustache and short goatee. He wore
white flannel trousers and a blue coat
and kept an unlighted cigar in his
mouth most of the time. There is no
smoking at the trial. Everything else
is informal. Mrs. Raulston several
times visited her husband on the
bench. Once she placed a cluster of
beautiful rhododendron on his desk

country. "Cap'n" Thompson owns a
farm, but insists he is no farmer. He

evolution. All the folk hereabouts are
Baptists or Methodists. One young
man belonging to no church at all was
the first juror selected.
Col. Darrow had some difficulty ac.
customing himself to the court prac-
tees down here. Once he told the
Judge he was afraid the prosecution
was putting something over on him.
Why we wouldn't do that for the
world, colonel" replied Attorney Gen
eral Tom" Stewart.
The evolutionary defense distened
uneasily as the first days session was
opened with old time fundamentals
prayer. Now that the jury has been
selected the defense says 1t will stand
for no more praying. An opening
prayer is optional in the Tennessee
courts, not compulsory.

NEW YORK, July II CP.-The
California Prune and Apricot Grow,
ers, Inc, were awarded a verdict for

the Federal Court against William A.
Higgins & Co.
The suit grew out of cancellation
of orders and refusal to accept goods
ordered after they had been sent. The
plaintiff claimed that after signing
orders for goods the defendant had
no right to delay shipments of goods
contracted for, and that signing of
orders by the defendant was equiva-
lent to order for forwarding as soon
a possible.
The verdict represented the full
damages claimed with interest for
