"Not he. Nor the naygurs, neither.

He felt his way toward the ladder

1 could feel his legs quivering above

Peter caught it on the flats of his

lifted it back. He was out in a flash,

witnesses in the so-called Dwyer rum
ring trial, were classed as amount
ing to bribery" in the summation of
defense counsel today.
Counsel for one of the eight de-
PENDANTS asserted that if an attorney
in private practice had acted as Bel
ask had admitted action in this
case, he would be brought before a
grievance committee for disbarment
In his testimony Bielaski had ac-
knowledged paying various sums to
government witnesses while they
were waiting their call to the wit
ness stand.
Charles Augustus Smith, chief
government witness was brought into
court in irons today.
After defense counsel charged him
with perjury and wife desertion at
yesterdays session, producing gov
ernment records and a woman to
back up their accusations, Smith
disappeared. A warrant was sworn
out for him and today he was
brought to the stand in custody of
three deputy sheriffs.
Defense counsel held brief con-
ference and decided not to question
the witness further. Counsel for
William V. Dwyer suggested that
summing up be omitted and the case
be given direct to the jury, but both
the court and the prosecution prefer
red that the usual summations be
made.

Prattsburg, N. Y, July % Up
An old memorial to Sarah Bern

a devoted admirer seven months
after her death, stands in little fire.
quented spot near here, its existence
unknown to the outside world.
The date of its erection, October
16, 1928, marked it among the first
in this country.
The monument, composed of con-
crete blocks on a stone and cement
base standing IA feet high, was built
by Charles D. Bean. a Geneva law
yer and descendant OF colonial set
tiers, who had followed her career
in this country and the foreign capt.
tails. Mr.. Bean built the statue in
the name of one of the oldest school
societies in this country, the knights
of Cyprus, of which he is a trustee.
Situated in a wooded plot on Mr..
Beams estate, the memorial has on
its face plaque of Vermont marble
bearing this inscription:
ITO Madame Sarah Bernhard.
The greatest actress in the world,
whose lyric fire and divine voice
gave more intense and supreme life
to the poets. In profound admira-
ton is built this rugged memorial,
by the Knights of Cyprus and de-
voted friends, 1S45-1923. Romance
holds open the door to eternal
spring"
The Knights of Cyprus society
was founded at st. Johns school,
Trinity Parish here many years ago.
1t was formed after the plan later
followed by college frateruities.
Society Met Bernhardt
The president of the fraternity
once was presented to Madame
Bernhard in Paris, which gave i'm
petus to the study Of the theater by
the members of the society, and
later many other members met the
tragedian in New York.
Mr.. Bean said that she became
enthusiastic over the society's plans
to build a chapter house in wood
ed section of New York for sum-
mer use.
This later was accomplished and
now the memorial stands nearby.
