DRUGGIST IS FREED
 ON CANDY CHARGE
(Continued from Page One)

Is always necessary for the state to prove it's charges beyond reasonable doubt. In this case the sta c has not produced sufficient facts ot proof and I therefore discharge the ac- cused."
 Sergeant T. J. Feeney of the de- tective bureau, who investigated Burke's complaint. testified that after seeing the boy in a weakened condition at his home, he interview ed 1tzel Rosenblatt, IS. of 167 Lin- wood street, who admitted having given the candy to the Burke boy and a companion, William Cormier, 13, of 43 Brooklawn street. Abetz was not available at the moment, but later came to police headquar- ters at the sergeant's request and admitted having placed croton oil on 15 pieces of candy because boys were constantly pilfering candy and other articles off the counters, the loss each week on this account be- ing approximately $15.
 Feeney Cross Examined
 Under cross examination by Judge W. F. Mangan, who, with Attorney Leonard s. Appel, represented Abetz, Sergeant Feeney said he in- tended to testify that the druggist admitted having placed one drop of the oil on each Of the 15 pieces of candy, and he quoted Abetz as hay ing made the admission beyond all question of doubt. Asked if it was true that he was angry with Abetz, the sergeant admitted that he be- came angry after Abetz took him to task for allegedly having given out newspaper story of the case. Abetz. according to the sergeant, called him crazy" Nevertheless, in the presence of Officer Daniel J. Cos grove, he read the sergeant's re- port of his investigation and said it was correct.
 It was brought out that Rosen- blatt. who is a high school student, varied his stories to Sergeant Feeney in different interviews, and Judge Traceski questioned the sergeant at length as to whether he had taken any action after Abetz told him of the thefts at the store. Officer Cos grove testified to hearing Abetz ad- init to Sergeant Feeney that he had put the oil on the candy. In reply to Judge Traceski. Sergeant Feeney said he made no effort to have Abetz affix his signature to his admission.
 Offered Some of Candy
 Rosenblatt testified that he went Into the drug store on the way home from school about 4 D. m. and two boys who were in there invited him to have some candy out of glass covered jar. which was covered. He did not take any until a stenogra- pher, who happened 10 be waiting on trade, told him he could do so. He took three or four pieces and ate one. almost immediately experienc- ing burning sensation in his throat After having a drink of water he went out and as he was walking through Monroe street, near Lin wood street, he asked the Burke and Cormier boys if they wanted some candy. They did, and he gave them some.

C0STE MAKES TEST FOR OCEAN FLIGHT
Takes 0f From Paris on 15-Hour n Tour Of France

3 Le Bourget, France, July R,- Seven hours after he had taken off on d flight officially described as a 5 hour test of his plane, the Ques- tion Mark, Captain Dieudonne Coste still presumably was aloft but his whereabouts was an ever deepening mystery.
 At Le Bourget great number of persons began asking themselves if the fiier and his mechanic, Maurice Bellonte, had not decided after reaching the French coast to con- tlnue on to America with the hope of arriving in the United States on Independence Day.
 Coste had said his fondest wish was to alight upon American soil on the day of the American indepen- dence anniversary.
 Doubt Atlantic Attempt
 Mechanics pointed out that Cap tain Coste carried with him d food supply sufficient for 36 hours and that while only TOO gallons of gaso- line were taken on last night, which would not be enough for an Atlantic crossing, the gasoline still remaining in the tanks of the Question Mark after it's flight from Nillacoublay might, added 10 TOO gallons have been sufficient for a crossing
 Captain Coys representatives, however, insisted that he was still above the European continent. They said they were sure that he would return ta Le Bourget for a final hop off to America.
 Final Tuning Up
 The Question Mark took the air at 6:52 a. m. G2:52 a. m, E. S T) today. Coste. holder of the worlds long distance flight record. was all set for a transatlantic attempt but said he wished to give his plane a thorough trial because of certain notifications notably in the carbur- ation system. The plane is rated at G50 horsepower
 The route of the supposed test was through Bordeaux Marseiles and Grenoble, with a return 10 Le Bourget by way of Yillacoublay
 Costa was defeated by wind wall on previous transatlantic at tempt.
 Coste on flight last year van ished and was missing for so hours. The flier and his companion, Bel lonte, finally landed in China.
 A high official of the air ministry told the Associated Press this after noon that Coste had informed him he intended to make a trial flight of IS hours returning to Villa coublay for a final tuning up of his machine
 The afternoon newspapers quoted the f1ier 10 the same effect and add ed that he expected to have the plane ready for an Atlantic attempt early next week. The full moon comes on July 10 and the news papers expressed the opinion the start for New York would be some time near that date.

Accident Toll Anticipated

New Haven, July Pl-A noisy but unorganized observation of the signing of the declaration of Inde- pendence is in prospect for the ma jority of Connecticut communities tomorrow. In contrast to the leather lunged orators, flag bedecked band stands and military parade of yester year, no outstanding celebration has been arranged for the 1930 Fourth of July.
 Many patriotic and political so- cieties however, will continue the custom of lighting bonfires to salute the anniversary. Displays of fire works also will be part of the local celebrations.
 In every city except Hartford. young America may legally blow off steam with the said of fireworks and it is probable that the toll of vic tins will mount as high if not higher than in previous years.

beef or ham. Veal and lamb
sandwiches are particularly good
with tomato ketchup, mint sauce
or sliced pickles. Of course, pre-

Satisfied Yearning to
Punch Cash Register

A certain resident of an exclusive
New Jersey suburb startled his friends
recently by opening book and maya
zine store in the town. He was known
to be wealthy and did not need more
money, and as he was a bridge and
golf addict and had other and varied
interests, they could not catalogue his
innovation as hobby, even though
he spent nearly every evening at the
store.
Then it occurred to close friend
to ask him outright. The new book
store owner looked a little sheepish
as he explained:
"I'll tell you If you promise not to
mention it to anyone But all my
life cash registers have intrigued me.
Every time made a purchase I've
yearned to punch the key. In fact,
on number of occasions I've bribed
a clerk to allow me to ring up my
own money. It's queer sort of COM
pick, know, but as long as I enjoy
punching cash registers I'm going to
continue it."-New York Sun.

Plants That Emit Gas
/ Not at All Uncommon

When one speaks Of "gas plant"
one naturally thinks Of coal ovens and
gas meters. Nature, however, pro-
vides real gas plant, specimens OF
which are to be found blooming In
London's Kew gardens. 1t is other
wise known as the Dictamnies or
Burning Bush.' When lighted
match is applied to shoot of it there
comes brilliant scarlet flame. Like
q flash of lightning it travels up the
length Of the towering shoot, without
injuring it. The best time to make
the experiment is when the flowers are
fading. The inflammableness of the
plant is due to this: that on its stalks
are minute reddish-brown glands, and
these secrete an etheric oil. The
glands develop fully soon after the
blossom begins to fade, but they shrivel
up when the fruit begins to form.
Luminous plants not unlike this have
been source of strange legends In
India and Afghanistan. There is a
mountain called Suited Koli in Afghan
istan on which the natives believe that
gold and silver exist. In springtime
the slopes are covered with bushes
which at night, from distance, seem
to be on fire, yet when you are close
to them there is no sign of flame.

BEGINNING Patent System

In very early times in England the
reigning prince considered himself en-
titled to grant privileges of the nature
of monopolies to any one who had
gained his favor. These grants became
so numerous. oppressive and unjust
during the reign of James (1603-25)
a statute was wrung from the king
declaring all previous and inconven-
lent monopolies to be void. There was
a special exception from that enact
ment Of all letters. patents. grants and
privileges of the sole working or
making of any manner of new manu-
features within the realm to the true
and first inventor" Upon these words
hangs the whole law of letters and
patents for inventions.
