I t J " IV «hue the objections were discuss ed. After citing authorities the i wonM t Stated ’ hat the ° b j«*Uons ; would be sustained. The jury was recalled and another similar question was asked Halberstadt, and on objection of he state, which was sustained bv , the court, Halberstadt was exeuscu froip the jury. Dr. J. W. Vizard, Pleasant Mills physician was the second defense witness He told of the autopsy on Werling’s body. Dr . vizard was asked a number of technical questions and then as an answer I to a question stated that in his opinion the immediate effect of a similar bullet wound would be for I the patient to relax completely. These questions were asked presumably in an effort for the defense to establish that the fatal shot was fired during the scuffle Dr. Vizard said also that in his | opinion it would have been Im possible for Werling to have grappled with Everett if ho had been shot through the heart. He also stated that he believed the revolver had been held from two | to eight inches and explained the I burns and sears on Werling’s | clothing and body. Attorney Lutz took Dr. Vizard through a strenuous cross-examin-ation. Dr. Vizard said that he had heard of some cases where a man had been shot through the heart and had been able to grapple and also to live for some time. He also was questioned concerning gunshot wounds. The cross-examin-ation lasted for some time and ; the large audience strained to . catch every word. On re-examination Dr. Vizard | said he believed the shot in the ; breast of deceased was fired at a I distance of two to ten inches and ■ not four feet. Re-crossexamined j by Mr. Lutz the doctor said in l answer to a question that if in this ease the shot was fired by Joe | Everett, standing four feet away I with his arm stretched at full I length, if that shot could not I have caused the powder burns, j “Yes, they could lie." | Harry Daniels was the next witness for the defense. . Attorney I De Voss tried to introduce evidence . concerning a conversation held bej tween Daniels and Thomas Hal- ■ berstadt, the day before the 29th ■ of June but objections were susI tained and Mr. DeVoss took ex- ' tended exceptions, giving the dictation in a whisper to the court reporter, so the jury or defendant Worrying About— Blood Pressure? , At the first sign of danger, take a | laxative.

BOY INVENTS i LIGHT SYSTEM Paris, —(UP)—A bad boy’s prank has proved the key to a’worthy invention, according to Jacques Ar thuys, who conceived a new sunlighting system from his own youthful misdemeanors. Flashing a- piece of mirror about in a sunshiny window to land a glaring light in teacher’s eye or on Sally's slate gave young Jacques an idea that many make him a millionaire. ,ls a tiny piece of broken mercuried glass could make such a bright light in a dark room then why couldn't a large piec> of mirror in the same sun light up a large surface of a dark room? That was the theory upon which the young inventor went to work. The finished product as it has been installed in the newspaper plant of “L'intransigeant" by its author and inaugurated recently byLouis Rollin, minister of commerce is called the Aithel. It is a simple combination o. mirrors and lenses and lights the interior of the building with a phosphorescent glow. From a skylight on the roof of the cent: al stairway solar rays are projected down the six flights and reflected back from a mirror bowl on the ground floor, acting as a fountain. Smaller, angled mirrors on each floor catch the strong descending rays and flash them back I along the ceiling of corridors or , roams “After the original instalI lation of the two huge mirrors in | the loof, there is no upkeep except I washing th in," said M. Arthys. "Paris has an average of 120 days of sunshine, which is a third of the year, and during that time this system will save% ~reat deal of maney There is also an attachment which switches on th- electric light when the sun goes under a cloud,” he con- | elude in explaining his apparatus, j Installed in private imrne, the i ;ays could be filtered through a I cooling process in summer In the | winter the unfiltered rays would | furnish heat for the house as well | as illumination in otherwise dark I rooms on bright days.
