Theodore Mathers. 19. held in iail here as the actual slayer of Saunders, was not permitted to enter the court room. He will bo tried after Mrs. Saunders. With defense counsel planning ; ’o use temporary insanity as the , b- • is for their arguments. John J. j Kelly, prosecutor, said he would I attempt to prove that a love affair j between Mrs. Saunders and Mathl ers was the motive for the slaying. Shortly after her arrest. Mrs. I Saunders was said to have con- ! fessed that she gave Mathers slil ■ with which he purchased the gun ■ used to kill the former minister. Victor Jose, of the defense staff, challenged jurisdiction of the Boone circuit court in the case, claiming that answers filed in Marlon circuit court were not included in the transcript on file here. Walker said if the case were permitted to go through, there would be legitimate cause for appeal. Judge Laymon overruled the challenge.

Walker said the defense would be based on self defense, insanity and alibi. Judge ruled om 1 •?e'f defense and alibi as defense j answers, but sustained the insanity claim. "I want to show the jury that Mrs. Saunders was temporarily insane," Walker told the court. ‘She was nervous and unstrung because of threats made by Mathers against her life and the lives of her children." Kelly countered with the claim that Saunders was slain so that I '-is wife and Mathers could collect Ii his insurance and be free to continue their love affair.

II!., in which two federal agents and Nelson were killed. At the same time it was reported they were questioning Nelson's 26-year-old. sister, Mrs. Juliette Fitzsimmons. Reports persisted that the government men, cloaking their every move in secrecy, also held Alvin Karpis, St. Paul gangster associate of Dillinger; John Hamilton, a leader of Dillinger's gang, or Frank Chase, San Francisco bootlegger said to have joined Nelson anfter Dillinger was slain.

Twenty- . five acres lia:ed four years ngo produced about two and a half loads of alfalfa hay to the acre for two ’j cuttings this year, which will be ijleuougli to carry his cows through a the winter.

Bonnet is reaping pthe advantages of a practical kind , of drought insurance, it is pointed out by C. M. Linsley. soils extension specialist of the University of p Illinois college of agriculture. e Less fortunate farmers in the p state were compelled to buy feed j during the late spring and summer because they had no alfalfa

or sweet clover pasture, and many will have to continue to buy hay during the winter. The limestone .' and rock phosphate program carried on in Cook county in past years, however, has meant the difference between having hay to sell and having to buy hay in the case of many farmers, reports Farm Adviser O.
