ing away an important witness in criminal case that grew out of the violating of the laws regulating the sals of oleomargarine. The specific charge against Davey was that of obstructing justice and he was tried on It twice before conviction was secured. The jury disagreed on the first trial. A South Bend oleomargarine dealer was Indicted for selling oleo contrary to the regulations and his indictment was brought about by the testimony of a dairyman of that city. After the Indictment was brought it was claimed that Davey procured the witness to secrete himself in Michigan and thus avoid appearance as a witness against the indicted man. The witness was Anally arrested and testified in the first trial to the part the attorney had played in getting him to disappear. The jury disagreed In this trial and the second witness died, but on the second trial the reporter, Who had taJten his evidence on the first one, went on the stand and swore to the testimony he had taken and on the strength of it Davey was convicted and sentenced to a year in Leavenworth and a fine of $5,000. He fought it up to the circuit court of appeals, where the judgment of the lower court was affirmed. Judge Anderson modified the penitentiary sentence to permit Davey to serve the time in the jail at South Bend instead of at Leavenworth, and he was recently released under the poor convict act.
It looked like a special meeting of the old county board of education in the federal court room Thursday when former Township Trustees Howard P. Greiner of Pierson, "Walter Oliphant of Linton, Elza Lloyd of Prairie Creek, and Joseph L. Graham of Riley marched in and took their seats in the places assigned to waiting witnesses. They were to testify regarding the omission of their names from the list of election Inspectors submitted to the connty commissioners when the law provides that the trustee is ex-officio election inspector in his precinct in every election held under the state laws. Only two of them testified, however, Graham and Greiner.^and the others were excused without being required to go on the witness stand..
Spectators must think that deafness is quite common in Terre Haute, as four of the witnesses thus far presented have had that physical failing. Three of these appeared Thursday and one of them, Michael, who was prevented from voting in the B, precinct of the Sixth ward, was so utterly unable to hear an ordinary tone that District Attorney Dailev was compelled to almost yell into his ear to get him to understand the most ordinary question.
Ralson As Witness.
Governor Ralston, it is understood, will be one of the last witnesses that will be put on the stand, probably Saturday morning, if the government does not finish up its evidence Friday evening. He will tell, it is said, of the ^isit of Mayor Roberts and Prosecutor %erneke to him on the day following ".*• the election to get him to issue the commission to Eli H. Redman as judge of the Vigo Circuit Court.
Over one million words of oral testlxnony have been taken thus far in the election trial, breaking all records in the local federal court for the same length of time, fifteen days, the time thus far actually consumed in the hearing. It is estimated that this will make four thousand pages of ordinary typewriting.
Mayor Roberts and Attorney A. O. ,V Stanley visited the office of the clerk of the United States court Thursday night and filed a list of witnesses expected to be summoned by the defense, which Mayor Roberts said would probably run up to two hundred. He de- I clined to announce a list of the witnesses who are to be summoned, saying no statement would be made in adr vance of the appearance of the witnesses on the stand. "Bull" Conway is the only one oi. the defendants who seems to be getting any fun out of the situation. Whenever he can he gets a seat alongside
Joe Strouse and teases him about how much time he will get on each count of the indictment.
Whenever Percy Williams walks I down the corridor of the federal building everyone that knows John Ci. Williams recognizes a faithful reproduction of the father's characteristic stride.
Representative Stanley asked Judge Anderson at the close of court Thursriav evening to issue a subpoena duce3 tecum, "come and bring with you," to County Auditor Xate Wallace, ordering Hm to produce in court for the benefit

of the defendants one of the voting machines that have figured so largely
in the testimony. Judge Anderson said he could not make the order without giving It some consideration, and postponed action until Friday morning.

This regulation also carried with it the injunction to carefully untie all bundles of mail, the string to be taken care of and used over again for outgoing mail. Before this order went into effect the bundles were slashed open with a knife and the string became junk. The government is saving nearly a half a million dollars a year by this bit of thrift.

"extract of beef' came to be made. A titled foreigner visiting the stock yards in Chicago, noticed the great Btreams of blood flowing through a long trough and emptying among the piles of refuse, remarked to an official, who was acting as his guide, that in his country this blood, instead of being thrown away, was not only saved, but all the blood possible was carefully extracted from the beef and used In hospitals to give to weak patients who could not eat and digest meat. This chance remark soon germinated Into & series of scientific experiments and in a =»Vort time "extract of beef" was introduced to the American public, bringing with it millions of dollars In profits to the beef packers. This w-ise utilization of what hitherto has been considered waste is typical of the vast majority of successful business institutions. In applying this principle to individuals, I should say: "Learn to live within your means—be economical, avoid display and petty extravagances and save every penny."
