wiped out the Park theater and the
H. o. Rogers Silver company this
morning. causing damage estimated
at million and a quarter dollars,
and threatened spread through the

checked.
A wind that had driven the
flames from the rear of the Park

companies from outside the city
gained control Of the fire.
The fire damaged the first dis

spread to other structures in the
heart OF the downtown business
section. Firemen from Brockton
did yeoman service in checking the
spread OF the flames to row of

the heaviest sufferer. John j.

CHARLOTTE HINTS At
BIG SURPRISE Coming
Expects New Trial if Jury
Acquits Three
Principals
BY CHARLOTTE MILLS
Copyright, 1926, Famous Features

Somerville, N. j., Nov. 2s-Before
the week is over this trial will cease
| to be a living thing and will take
its place in the long line OF memoir
! les which have crowded themselves
into my mind these past four years.
! What will come after, heaven only
! knows
Much depends upon the verdict
which the elderly IL men Of the
| free Mrs Hall and her two brothers
or will they doom these three to
death or long Imprisonment?
1t Is entirely possible that the
jury has been so confused by con-
fiicting and twisted testimony that
they will acquit rather than take
any chance Of furnishing people who
may be innocent.
The defense may think that when
this is over their clients can retire
again to their life of ease and try
to forget the sting OF being tried
| for murder. But ! am not convinc-
cd OF that. l have a feeling that
all three may be tiled again under
| other Indictments for the murder OF
DR.. Hall, and next time they will be
! tried separately.
Many people believe that even il
the defendants are acquitted now
they still have not removed them
selves completely from the shadow
of possible guilt. Many things still
remain unexplained. and the world
will never be satisfied until they are
explained.
Mrs. Hall is a strange woman-at
least she is to me. Even as little
child in her Sunday school class ]
used to think she was so different
from most people.
Today as I looked at her in court
was reminded of all the different
kinds OF feeling I have had toward
her since I first knew her until now.
I know it seems peculiar that
have had SO many different kinds OF
feelings toward the same person. but

Then, too, the way I feel towards

to look at her you wouldn't think
she would arouse much pity, but I
could just feel what was going on
in her mind and heart There she
was facing all those people and be-
ing forced to tell so many little in
innate things that people just don't
like everybody to hear. I know how
terrible that is because I've been
through the same experience.
Most people think I hate Mrs

whiskey physicians may prescribe to
patients each ten days were sus-
tanned today by the supreme court.
The decision was by a sharply di-
vided court, four members, Justices
Sutherland, McReynolds, Stone and
Butler, dissenting. The dissenting
opinion was that the state had ex-
elusive jurisdiction to regulate the
use of Intoxicating liquor for other
than beverage purposes; and that
congress had not prohibited the use
OF liquor for medicinal purposes and
that it did not have authority to do
so.
Victory For Govt.

Lambert of New York city. marked
another victory for the government,
which has been sustained by the

ment.
The court previously has ruled
that malt liquor possessed no medi-
cinal value and upheld the Willis
Campbell act prohibiting beer pre-
scriptions.
Justice Sutherland asserted that
the majority had deprived the states
of the exclusive power to control
medicinal practices and had trans
ferred 1t to congress.
Justice Brandeis delivered the
opinion of the court.

INTRODUCE BILL TO CLEAR
TITLE OF INDIAN CAMP

PHOENIX, Feb. 2O.-With the
aim Of eliminating dangers of
technical Irregularities in the pres
idential order of year ago, with
drawing from public entry 800
acres of land to be used as a camp
ground for the Phoenix Indian
school, Congressman Carl Hayden
of Arizona has introduced a bill in
the house of representatives per-
manently withdrawing the land.
The 800 acres comprise desert
land in the mountains six miles
north Of the Indian school. Ac-
cording to John Brown, superin-
'tendent at the Phoenix Indian
school, stone hopi houses will be
built on the land by the pupils OF
the school and it will be used by
them as recreation spot on week
END trips.
Although the president issued
an order February 27, 1925, with
drawing the land from entry, the
question later came up as to whe-
ther the presidential action con
flicted with the statute Of congress
providing that Indian reservations
could not be extended with the
consent of congress. While it was
believed by Indian School officials
that the camp ground was not an
Indian reservation, the expendi.
