COURT GUARDED AT OPENING OF TRIGGER TRIAL Constitutionality of New Law Regarding Jurors Attacked by Miners’ Attorney. SOLDIERS FILL TOWN COURTHOUSE, WILLIAMSON. W. Va., Sept. 7—The constitutionality of West Virginia's new statute permitting citizens of one county to sit as jurors in other counties was attacked for the first time today when J. J. Coniff, chief counsel for the defendants in the second “trigger trial.'' objected to the venire drawn for the case on the ground that it is composed of residents of Pocahontas County, northeast of Mingo County. Twenty-one miners are defendants. They are charged with murdering W. .L Ferguson, a Baldwin-Felts detective, at Mattewan in May, 1920. An army of State police is mobilized in Mingo County. No Federal troops are here. State martial Law prevails and the State police hold down the lid. The citizens’ reserve army is ready to move at call. vThree miles from Williamson, on the Kentucky side of Tug River, miners are encamped, ready to march across and invade Merrimnc, where "defenders” with rifles ready await call. The courthouse bore resembles an armed camp. Khaki-clad troopers are everywhere with revolvers or Springfields. Because of the presence of these troops county officials declare no trouble will come out of the trial. The armed camp on Tug River will be kept in check and peace will continue. KEEP 1,000 FEDERAL SOLDIERS IN W. VA. CHARLESTON. W. Va . Sept. 7.Approiimately 1.000 United States soldiers will be left in the recently disturbed West Virginia coal fields when the contingents ordered withdrawn leave. Those recalled are expected to be on their way to home stations by tomorrow. The chemical warfare section, it is understood, will leave today for Edgewood Arsenal. The '.’6th Infautry will leave as soon as special trains arrive. The Sbth Aero Squadron with the exception of two messenger planes, ordered hack to Langley Field. Va.. probably will leave this afternoon or tomorrow morning. Reports this morning indicated everything was quiet iu the trouble zone.

2 AMENDMENTS, IST AND 2D ONLY ONES CARRIED (Continued From Page One.) other amendment in this precinct was on the first. Only forty one votes were cast for this amendment and one against It. On some of the other amendments as low as eighteen voters cast their ballots in this precinct. In the Seventh precinct of the F'rst ward a similar situation was noted. Sixty-three votes were east for the militia amendment, against four opposed to It. No other amendment, except the first, received more than a total of twelve votes there. The appeal made to the voters to vote for the second amendment in order that the registration section of the eonstitu tion should not be lost apparently had Its effect, for this amendment, on the face of incomplete returns, appears to have received the second largest number of votes. LITTLE INTEREST FROM 3 TO 8. Amendment No. providing that legislative apportionment be based on the rotes for secretary of State received a ■omparatively small plurality, if any at ill. Down the line from this amendment ,o No. 8, the lawyers’ amendment, there teemed to be little interest. Amendment No. I, whicti provides that he Gover- ->r may veto separate items in ippropriati ■ bills, appears to have met with more gei val approval than some of he others. In fact, the vote was about ,wo to one in its favor. Interest jumped again at Amendment S'©. 8 and the vote nn this amendment Nas comparatively heavy. This is tin imendmeut which provides the I.egislarure may prescribe for ad nlssion to the bar. Strong opposition to his amendment was shown in some pr© •inctß, hut this was not suf r iient to •ause it to lose. VO. 13 SEEMED TO RE kXOTHEE FAVORITE. Amendment. No. 13. which provides that io salary may be increased nor term of >ffi©e lengthened during tile term of any official, was another favorite with the ew voters who went to the polls. It ap feared to have received nearly a 2 to 1 r.ajority. j Lack of interest In the election was ipparent nor only from the light vet© jut from the manner in which the re |irns were received. Usually the rooms n which the returns nrc n-oiictit are trowded on election day. Last night cry few persons except these employed in receiving the vote and newspaper men were present. The returns began to come tn early despite the fact that, no machines were used. The precinct returns were brought to the Court House in rapid succession until 1:30 o'clock when they ceased altogether. Everyone but those persons actually engaged in tabulation proceeded to go to sleep. It was not until o’clock this morning that the next precinct reported. It was followed by others at short intervals. There will be no possibility of giving Laore than an estimate of complete returns in the State possibly for several days. Due to lack of interest, many counties are slow in making tlieir returns which are to be s©nt to the Secretary of State. The election appears to be close enough in some respects to leave the Tote on some of the amendments in doubt. There also is the provision of thp Constitution which requires an amend ment to receive a majority of all votes cast in order to be adopted. This raav have considerable hearirg on the final results in respect to the amendments in which there is little interest.

CONCENTRATE ON 3 SECTORS IN FOREST FIRES (Confirmed From Page One.) River country. This makes 7SO troopers now fighting the fires in the various fire sectors. SOLAXA, Minn.. Sept. 7.—Through the heroic efforts of the'four hundred guardsmen thrown into this salient Tuesday, rnis town was saved temporarily from the fate of White Pine. Time and again yesterday and during the night. it ■eeroed as though they would he forced to leave, owing to the variable wit.ds which blew through here, hurling the fires back on the fighters. Sparks lodged in the lumber piles In (the station yard and squads of soldiers were kept busy extinguishing these, and |j>res on th roofs of the buildings la the

town. Falling trees are endangering the troopers on the fighting lines. A wind blowing from the south nud to the north, which sprang up, continues to menace Arthyde, four miles northwest of here. Only a rain or a complete change in the wind can save this town, accordI ing to forest rangers and militiamen. FINLAYSON, Minn., Sept. 7.—The White Pine-Solana fires have penetrated to a point eight miles northwest of here, causing much apprehension. ONAMIA, Minn., Sept. 7.—Twenty fam ilies still in the Solana region are endangered by raging flames now covering a five-mile front and fanned by high winds. A force of nearly three hundred fire fighters is engaged in back-firing. With Onamla out of the zone danger, ! the entire city is directing its efforts to the saving of Tillages west of here, and among the hardest workers in the fighting forces are a number of boys not over | 15 years of age. MeGRATH, Minn., Sept. 7.- Refugees t y the hundreds poured info McGrath to- : day from the flame swept area to the north and west of here, and means of caring for the homeless and penniless , victims furnishes anew problem. While the multitude fled from Tillages j and homesteads before the advancing conflagration, a iast stand was being made ■to save the towns of Arthyde, Jobnadale and Hillman, and National Guardsmen and citizen volunteers fighting the flames under direction of W. T. Cox. State forj ester, were reported bolding their own j against a stiff wind and having control j of fires at most places in this district. The fate of the town of Arthyde, fourteen miles from here, now in the path of the fir*, "depends almost entirely on favorable ! winds, which at present are blowing only mildly. St. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 7.—Governor .T. i A O. Preus. on returning from a trip of inspection of the forest fire region, after visiting McGrath, Onamia, Solana and other points, declared today that troops sent to fight the fires are doing excelj lent work and they will not leave until J danger of loss of life has passed and the fires brought under control. Wiib the headway already gained by j the flames in the great forest area of pine : and spruce, the grentest danger now lies, the Governor said, in the possibility of high winds suddenly springing up. WISCONSIN TOWN IS DESTROYED RHINELANDER. Wig., Sept. 7.—A fire which on Wednesday morning had swept far beyond control, is destroying the town of .leffris. twelve miles from here, and causing damage which is estimated will exceed $1,000,000. The county for miles around is covered with smoke and huge pillars of flames was visible in this ] city, even in broad daylight. Although fire apparatus was rushed to the scene from Rhinelander, Merrill and other nearby cities, hope of saving the ; town virtually is abandoned. | Nearly the entire population of Jeffris. some 800 men, women and children, fought desperately throughout last night und this morning to save tlieir homes. The fire apparently started in the yards ! of the Larson I.umber Company, where i millions of feet of sawed wood were stored. It spread with such rapidity that | adjoining buildings were soon ablaze. The town is without fire protection. According to reports reaching Rhine lander early Wedmsday morning the hotel aud two stores were on fire, as well as dozens of homes. i Refugees began reaching here by S I o’clock loaded down with what little they | could save in their haste to leave. Every piece of fire apparatus here has been rushed to Jeffris, with Chief Rich- . ard Cole in charge.

Monroe Doctrine Snag Hits League GENEVA. Sept. 7.—The Chilean delegation to the League of Nations assembly meeting this morning is sued a statement denying the right of the I/eague to interfere with the Chilean Bolivian territorial dispute and claiming that such interference would lie a violation of the Monroe doctrine.

GENEVA, Sept. 7.—Senor Edwards, head of the Chilean delegation to the League of Nations meeting, today served formal notice upon the league assembly that Chile wtll withdraw from the league if the demands of Bolivia are accepted. The Chilean envoy said his country held that the League of Natios assembly was not competent to revise the treaty of 1904 between Chile and Bolivia. Senor Armamayo, head of the Bolivian delegation, In replying to Senor Edwards. said there could be no hope of lasting peace in South America if the present Bollvian-Chilean treaty stands He moved that the Bolivian demands be sent to a romroittee for execution before any vote was taken. ASSEMBLY AGREES TO MAKE DECISION. The Bolivian envoy was successful in obtaining delay. The assembly decided to postpone further discussion of the South American dispute until it coui.l be studied at greater length, with the understanding, however, that a definite decision be reached before the assembly adjourns. Both sides agreed to this. Canada Is determined to press her fight lor the ellminrtion of Article 10 df the League of Nations covenant. This was revealed by Minister of Justice Doherty of the Canadian cabinet and head of the Canadian delegation. "Cauada is going to stand by her guns,” said Mr. Doherty. “She will reiterate her demand that the league kill Article 10. If the assembly votes to re tain it, the situation tvIU become serious for us. Frankly, I do not know what the Canadian parliament will do." COMMITTEE FOR ARTICLE 10. This statement was made following the announcement that the special committee of the assembly had rejected the amend ment proposed by Canada last year killing Article 10. The committee reeoru mended that the article in question stand but with modifications by the present session of the assembly.

Note: The so-called Taena Arica dispute between Chile and Bolivia concerns territory. Bolivia has no outlet to the Pacific and claimed territory at the extreme northern end of Chile between the cities of Taena and Arica. Under the treaty in question Chile retained the disputed ground, but allowed Bolivia free transport to the sea The dispute was referred to the League of Nations by Bolivia and the Bolivian delegation demanded a revision of the treaty along with recognition of the Bo liviiin demands. "if the assembly accepts the demands of Bolivia, then Chile can no longer par ticipate in the activities of this assembly," said Senor Edward*. "If the league considers revision of the Bolivian treaty Germany may later demand revision of the treaty of Versailles. 1 ask that the assembly take an immediate vote upon tha matter.” Tacit recognition of the Moscow soviet as the governing power in Russia has been accorded by the league. The secretary general of the league gave notice tha three treaties and one international agreement had been registered at league headquarters. The agreement mentioned was that negotiatd between the Russian sovit trade delegation and the American relief administration. This was the first time the Soviet had been recognized by the league.

Keeping House With the Hoopers

(The Hoopers, an average American family of five, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Dally Times Uow the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working ori the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them daily In an interesting review of their home lite and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.) WEDNESDAY. ‘Tve been thinking about what you I said of the effect of my housekeeping I system on the children," began Mrs. | Hooper, as she and Henry started for a walk in the cool of the eveniug, leaving Roger and Helen hard at work over thetr home lessons in the dining footn. "Why I really didn't intend for you to take it so seriously, Mary," replied Henry, "but I do think that your r.gid program with everything manped out so i perfectly for all of us -Is reacting on i Roger and me, though Helen seems not to be so affected by It. She really thinks for herself when it comes to doing some of the more ordinary things. 1 had more of an opportunity to watch the children on our camping trip than i do at home, you know." "I suppose thinking for herself as you put it is what makes Helen so much more troublesome to manage than Roger Is," mused Mrs. Hooper. "I didn’t know that she gave so much trouble,” observed Henry, "but If she does that is undoubtedly the reason, and bears out ray complaint against your method of handling her.” “Destroying people's initiative is a terrible thing, Henry,” continued Mrs. Hooper, "and you must realize that It is a very serious charge that you have brought aguinst me." "And I have courage to speak of it," Henry went on, "only because 1 atn admitting that doubtless no home in Mayfield Is better or more economically managed. and with so little bother to tha head of the house, than mine is. Economically, y u have certainly established the kind of household that when the country has enough of them will restore the business and the social equilibrium for which so many economists are striving " “Our freedom from the burden of doe tors hills, with scarcely any outlay for medicine, proves also that my striet attention to food and sanitation and my constant precaution against accident and exposure is the reason for the almost perfect health of you aid the children, as well as of myself," said Mrs. Hooper in a tone of defense. “Os that I am quite certain also." replied Henry, so that It seems all the more curious that with nil this perfection of system it should break down on the psychological side when it is so adequate economically.” "Well, Fin not so sure that .t does," argued Mrs. Hooper, "and I think your criticism is very unjust. Rut I promise you that T shall watch that phase of L very carefully from now on, and if i am convinced that a perfectly managed , household reduces every one except the manager to a state of dependence, the-c ! will certainly be some reform instituted somewhere.” "I’m glad to know you feel that wav about it, Mary.” answered Henry in >• relieved voice. "I hate to find fault with anything you do, but sometimes an out- j slder looking tn sees things that the i person Inside cannot detect." "But you are not an outsider. Henry," ■ exclaimed Mrs. Hooper in a hurt tone “Well, I shouldn't have said so." said Henry laughing, "before I went away on this trip an 7 began to think about it. but I'm not so certain now." "You seem to have discovered several things on vour vacation." said Mrs Hooper shortly, feeling very much as if s)*e wanted to cry again, "that never occurred tn you at home." “Os course, you may prove that my conclusions are all wrong,” added Henry, growing serious again at her tone, “but 1 am very cerlaln that I have become very much part of a machine, as far as my own home Is concerned, and that everything I do Is accomplished because a button Is pressed somewhere.” I “But you have quite as much control (of that button ns I have," exclaimed Mrs. Hooper, Indignantly, as they turned I

You are realiy fretting to get back to it because Wednesday is mendlDg day and it is a matter of pride with you to have It done on time." “That Is utter nonsense, Henry," retorted Mrs. Hooper. "The washing machine and my careful handling of the clothes are fast reducing my mending to a very few pieces each week, compared with what I used to have, and while Wednesday Is, as you say. my mending day. I'd be perfectly willing to let it go until tomorrow, If you had said anything about wanting to take a long walk." "That's Just It," said Henry conclusively.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. j By David Cory ' ’ When I’tiss woke np the next morninj in the little house of the Three Kittenl he saw' the cuckoo come out of her little clock and sing: "Get up, get up. the sun is bright, And all the world is gay with light. The little bird sings in the tree, The wooiy lamb is on the lea. And soon it’s time to go to school With slate and copy book and rule.” fio Puss jumped up and pulled on hi* red-tnp t.oots, and pretty soon the Three Little Kittens Who Lost Their Mittens got the breakfast ready, and after that Puss rode away on hts good gray horse, who had spent a very comfortable night in the stable, as I told you in the last story. Well, after a while, as Puss rode alonj he came to a bridge which was kept by a queer little dwarf who wore a pointed cap and a pair of pointed shoes and green doublet, which is a kind of vest, you know. So. of course. Fuss pulled in his good gray horse and put ills paw in bis pocket, for It was a toll bridge, you see. ■ Three pennies. Sir Kitten. One penny for you and two for your steed,” said the little dwarf . i And when Fuss had paid the moueyl the dwarf said: "Be careful when yon] reach the other side, for I hear a wiekedJ giant is roaming about." I "Thank you for your wxirning,” saicj Puss, and then he rode over the bridej for he wasn't afraid of giants. Oh, my, no! He had met so many on his travel* that he was quite used to these big men. Well, by and by. after a little while, be heard a great noise. Just like thunder, and then, all of a sudden, a great big tremendous giant came tearing through the woods, and every time he took a leap h* knocked down a tree or kicked over a big rock. "Ha. ha, ho. bo. he, he, hum, hum! I see a cat as big as my thumb'. On a little horse as big as my cat. I’ll put them both in my big straw baL” “No. yon won’t." shouted little Puss Junior as loud as he could, for the giant’s heal was even higher than the tops of the tallest trees. "You won't put me in your old straw hat, for I'm by far too fag moils a cat.” f "Who are you?" asked the Giant, and he sat down on one of the fallen trees and crossed his right leg over his left knee, and after that he took a cigar as long as a cane out of his pocket and lighted it with a match as big as a clothespin. “I’m Puss in Boots Junior and this is my faithful steed, the Good Gray Horse." “Well, if you will do me a favor,” said the Giant, "I'll be your friend for life, and maybe longer.” "Tell me what it is first,” said Puss. “I’ll not promise anything unless you do.” fio the Giant looked all around to see if anybody was near, and then he looked into an old magpie's nest to se if that mischievous bird was ther©. and when he found that he was nil alone with little Puss and his faithful steed, he leaned away down and whispered in Puss Junior's ear something which you must wait to hear la the next story, for I have no more room In this to write another word. —Copyright. 1921.
