The Light Six As It Will Be
The First Choice car in every class fails to meet spring demands. There is never enough of them Thousands of men, on this acount, are forced to a second choice.
Last year we had as high as 4,000 unfilled orders. We shipped over 1,000 cars by express to men weary of waiting. This year, our output is trebled, but the demand for Light Sixes has increased ten-fold. And the Hudson is still the first choice.
This ad is run by local dealers, who wish to save delays for local buyers.
Why This Demand
The Light Six dominates today in the field above $1,100. A four-cylin-der class car is out of the question. The Light Six has become the accepted standard type. It is likely to always remain so.
Why Hudson Leads
Hudson is the iriginal Light Six. It introduced this type. Its famous designer—Howard E. Coffin—first worked out the many problems connected with this construction. Special steels had to be employed. A new-type motor was
ART EXHIBIT DRAWS AT
Notable Examples of the Work of Roy Brown, a Distinguished American Artist
Patrons of the Fairbanks library have for the past ten days enjoyed one of the most artistic exhibits which it has been the pleasure of the library board to present. The exhibit consists of the work of Roy Brown, a Chicago artist of distinction.
Mr. Erown was born In Decatur, HI., but has been living In Chicago for a number of years. He studied In the Art Student's league of New York and followed this with a course under Instructors in Paris where he has been living for the past six or seven years.

He is represented In the permanent collection In Northwestern university, Carnegie Institute, the academy of design and the Corcoran gallery, Washington.
Mr. Brown was in France when the war broke out. He was doing landscapes on the Belgian frontier and saw the first actual mobilization of the armies before the dreadful battles that laid waste to that section of Europe.
The exhibit at the Fairbanks library includes the following Pines and Populars on the Dunes, Red Roofs. Misty Morning, The Shadows, Old
528 Last Week

Hudson engineers worked four years on this car. Every part has been refined to the limit. The result shows in beauty, finish, luxury and equipment. It shows in the matchless lightness—2,870 pounds.
And Hudson has been tried out. Over 12,000 cars are now running. Half of them have run two seasons. They have covered together at least 30 million miles without revealing error, weakness or shortcoming.
That is why the first choice is the Hudson. It shows itself the class car. It looks the finished product. Every question about it has been answered on the road—answered over 12,000 times.
You are bound to prefer it. In these respects, no rival compares with it. If this is true, you should know it before our local allotment is gone. 7-Pa»senger Phaeton or 3-Passenger Roadster, $1,550, f. o. b. Detroit.

Gruesome Find Gives Gotham Police New Mystery—Victim Apparently Dead Two Weeks.
NETW YORK, April 10.—In the finding of the body of a woman packed in a barrel and covered with sand and rocks, the police tonight were confronted with a new and gruesome murder mystery. The discovery was made by two boys hunting for snakes on the Astor estate in the Bronx.

The body had been packed in the barrel face downward and la believed to have been taken to the lonely gully subsequent to the murder. No sand or rock similar to that half covering the remains is fourid in this vicinity.
The woman was about 35 years of age. She wore a dark suit with a black velvet coat and moderately expensive undergarments, which were torn badly.

POINT PLEASANT, W. Va., April 10.—It was reported here today that Jackson Shirley and John Bosworth, who were stabbed durnig a feud figrht between male members of the Shirley and Bosworth .families at the Howell I resentative A. O, Stanley, of Kentucky,
of appearing as chief counsel for the defendants. He was assisted by Finley P. Mount as counsel for Arthur O. G-lllis, Clarence Nichols, for "William Doyle, and George "Woodall. Judge Frank Robey, a former appellate judge of the state, representing the defendants also In the case. Later D. P. Williams, 1 son of John G-. Williams, general coun sel for the Vandalia Railroad company and well known in Terre Haute, and Charles J. Orbison, former Judge of a Marion county superior court, appeared In the case representing Sheriff Dennis Shea, Maurice Walsh and City Judge Thomas C. Smith. On February 1 Judge Albert B. Anderson overruled the demurrers attaoklng the Jurisdiction of the court and set the case for trial on the eighth of March. The trial began on that date and continued until April 8, when the jury returned a verdict of guilty on all the four oounts of the indictment, which charges conspiracy to prevent citizens from voting with fraud on the United States, with preventing them from acting as elec-
indictment refewing to the latter fracture of the law. Verdict Was 8wift.
The jury in the .case, which consisted of eight democrats, three progressives and one republican, took but one ballot on each of the questions be fore It. One ballot decided that there had been a conspiracy and another ballot decided that all the twentyseven defendants who pleaded not guilty were guilty of conspiracy on all the four counts of the indictment.
There are many anxious hearts in Terre Haute today over the atory that oomes by press from Washington to the effect that the department of Justice intends to attempt to pvevant Judge Anderson from recognizing by suspended sentences the part any Terre H&ute defendants took In developing the evidence that secured the conviction. of the election conspirators in the federal court at Indianapolis. The anxiety did not come from any specific declaration on the part of the department that the Terre Haute cases in question. The dispatch from Washington was worded as follows, and those who run may read: "The department of justice is planning to test its view that federal judges have no warrant for suspending sentences of criminals or failing to order commitments after convictions. Department officials are watching very closely the progress of several cases in which they expect judges to suspend sentences or fail to commit and they intend when the time comes to seek in the supreme court or the proper circuit court

appeals a mandamus to
compel enforcement of sentence." Some time ago the department of Justice at Washington sent out word that the district attorneys throughout the country would be asked to notify the federal Judges that the action of the latter in suspending sentences was questionable in that the courts did not have the ixiwer they had assumed in such cases. Judge Anderson, of the district court for the district of Indiana, had been notable as one who had exercised the authority, in suspending in such cases as he felt-that were entitled to this ^lemency.

thls right had been questioned by the federal authorities at Washington, he made a public declaration from the bench that he believed that he knew the powers of his court and until he was removed from the bench he would continue to exercise the power of suspending sentence. Terre Hauteans who have pleaded guilty to participation in the alleged election frauds and who believed that such action on their part entitled them to consideration at the hands of Judge Anderson, have heretofore rested quiet In the belief that their part in probing the election frauds here would secure them kind treatment at the hands of the court. They were alarmed at the story from Washington. It means that if Judge Anderson should give them suspended sentences the action of the department of Justice in seeking an opinion from the supreme court in setting aside such suspended sentences may deprive them of such privileges.
Davern Denied Release.
William Davern, a son of Joe Davern, of the fire department, who is held in the Marion county jail awaiting action by the next federal grand Jury on the Charge of perjury, growing out of the election trial at Indianapolis, was de nied release yesterday afternoon by Judge Anderson on a surety bond of fered him by John J. .Shea, president of the Terre Haute Oil and Coal com pany, and a brother of Sheriff Dennis Shea. John J. Shea bought the bond which was for $5,00, paying £100 for it, but the question of the Indemnifying surety did not prove satisfactory to Judge Anderson.
A newspaper account of the proceed ing says that after reading the bond, the court asked to see the indemnity contract. It was read by Judge An derson and Franks C. Dailey, district attorney, who then took turns in di rectlng questions at the surety compa ny agent. The examination showed the surety company has no assets in Indiana, that it is a New York compa ny, that paid losses of $1,661,000 last year, and that it is licensed to do business by the federal treasury department.
The contract reads that if the surety company elects to contest payment on a bond, the indemnifying surety agrees to defray all legal expenses. This feature seemed particularly objectionable, it being pointed ou^that It seemed the company has beeil getting ready to fight payment. "I don't want to be buying a lawsuit," said the court to the surety company representative in reference to this. Mr. Dailey asked If the contract

was similar to that used to get the release of other Terre Haute men involved in the conspiracy case and the agent replied that the contract was a printed form and was used in these cases.
It was brought out in the examination of the agent that the government would wish to collect on a bond in case of nonappearance for a person for whom the bond was given. The company representative was asked to explain how the collection would be made, since there was no property iiithe state for the court to levy on. It was replied that collection would come from the New York office. Then the court officials went into the question of a lawsuit, and the examination ended with Davern being sent back to jail to await th6 court's decision regarding the bond, which will be made Monday.
