Albert Fall Secretary of the Interior has char

Thus the defense at the trial is setting out to establish
Doheny and Fall lovers of country instead of ber and
bribed in the oil transaction of four years back.
Eminent personsshoas Of the-are called testify the
sterling attributes of President Hardings Cabinet member
and the oil millionaire
The defense will with the words of many witnesses
It's contention that Secretary Fall had only the interests Of the
nation heart when he leased the Elk Hills to
Doheny

responsibility of the two defendants One extremely rich

But the legal lights will have lot Of trouble explaining
away Falls statement Senator Walsh denying that he asked
anybody connected with oil concession for that 100000
and the Secrerys subsequent admission to Senate
committee that the loan came from Doheny
The defense will have still difficulty in erasing the
sinister implication of 1.-The little black sache that
Dohenys filled with 100000 of cold cash in New York

WE are told that the tempera-
wv ture In the interior of the
stars rises to millions of degrees.
This Is necessarily a mathematical
conclusion, for nobody has been
inside a star to make observations,
and only mathematics can work
in such a degree Of heat. A very
few thousand degrees mark the
border lines of indirect human ex-
perience. while two or three hum
bred suffice to limit all personal
inquiries.
We are also told that the stars
tineluding our SUM are radiating
themselves away, and that within
some trillions Of years those that
now exist will have scattered all
their substance into an impalpable
form of energy. Whether, in the
meantime, successors are prepar-
ing to take the place Of the spend

rate both nearer and farther space

tions, is another question. You see

credited with the suggestion that
future research may prove the
