Joint Trial Set for Nov. Is
Detective in Hall-Mills
Case Seeking Evidence to
Clear Woman

The temper Of Mrs. Margaret Lii
liendahl fiared last night after she
and Willis H. Beach had been held
without bail for trial ON Nov. %,
charged with the murder of the wo-
mans husband, DR.. William Lillien-
dahl. Pacing her cell, she said:
1T is damnable outrage that
the authorities are following the
easier course and trying TO fasten
guilt on two innocent persons. They
should be seeking the two negroes,
or the men | took to be negroes,
whom l saw kill my husband.
THE result of this injustice is
that Mr.. Beach and | and our
friends are forced to expend our
money and We are losing our liber-
ty while fighting for our lives In
stead of trying to break down my
story the State should try to find
the negroes. AS it is l must employ
detectives TO find the slayers even
though am in jail
This flash OF spirit was the sec
ond unhappy reaction by the widow
during the day. She was smiling
and nodding to friends when she
came into the court room of Su-
preme Court Justice Luther Camp
bell to plead not guilty to the muir
der Indictment and seek liberty on
bail. When the Justice refused bail
a shadow blotted out Mrs. Lillien-
dahl's smile and the knuckles of
her clenched hands We're dabs of
white. Last night she turned bitter.
Beach in Joking Mood.
Beach, the erstwhile rowing ma
terial witness, who returned TO be
jointly indicted with the widow, was
his placid self through it all. He
was really jaunty as he strobe into
the court room. A grin puckered
his features wnen he heard the de-
cision on the motion for bail. As
he went back to his cell he enjoyed
hugely the swapping of camera
shutters and jokingly remarked
that he was going into the movies
after the jury acquitted him.
When the widow entered the
court room she flicked back her
veil as she entered and
briskly greeted friends. She took a
seat next to John ]. Gregory. Jr.,
private Investigator in the Hall
Mills case, who has been retained
to act in similar role for the Lii
liendahl-Beach defense. Later,
Gregory disclosed that he had been
employed by the widow one week
after the murder.
Beach came in briskly. His pink
face glistened from a close shave.
and the creases in his blue suit
were edged like a blade. AS he
moved to a seat he and Mrs. Lii
liendahl exchanged smiles. 1t was
the first time they had met during
the three weeks of investigation
and suspicion which the Grand Jury
last week cente-ed on them. vi
You boys are getting lot of
good stuff" said Beach to the re-
porters. Il am glad to meet you
ALL but this is lot of hooey.

Den,ocles Rightly Has
Small Claim to Fame

There is probably no weapon in all
history that is better known than the
Sword of Damocles," as it Is usually
called. 1t was not the possession Of
Damocles at all. He would not have
had 1t at any price. AS a matter of
fact 1t belonged to DiOnysius, the
cruel. vindictive and suspicious ruler
Of Syracuse In the Mediterranean,
three or four centuries before Christ.
1t is one of the strangest things go
Ing, that this rulers playful trick of
asking Damocles to dinner and hang
ing this sword over his head by a
single hair, should have come down
to us through the centuries so that
every young writer now uses it to
point his moral and to adorn his tale.
Two or three classic poets referred
to 1t, and everybody who could use
a pen has been referring to it ever
since-people who, like Pickwick's
fat boy, have a desire to make our
flesh creep.
The Damoclean sword is continually
hanging over US In one way or anoth-
er. Poor old Damocles, who was moth
ing but a subservant and fiattering
diner-out, had no idea that he would
be SO well known as he is. In his
own day he didn't even have his por-
trait put In the paper. 1t was queer
way Of convincing a hanger-on that
he was a bore.-Vancouver Province.

Sordine's Foe

Hunting the tuna fish was formerly
done to protect the sardines, which
they devour In large numbers, but
since the tuna Is now popular for food,
It Is the basis Of an important phase
Of the fishing industry. In the Medi-
terranean. says Popular Mechanics
Magazine, the tuna are detected by
watchmen who sit in chairs on high
extension steel ladders on the coast
and relay word by telephone when q
school of fish is sighted. By means
Of sardine bait the fish are lured into
q bay, called the death chamber"
This chamber Is square incIosure Of
heavy netting which is closed at the
entrance when a number of fish have
been caught In 1t. Then the men,
working from a float around the net
kill the tunnies with spears.
