Bp Times Special NEWPORT, Ind., May 16.—Wallace Phillips, Universal, is in the Vermillion County jail here awaiting anew trial on a robbery charge, after serving six years in the Indiana State Prison for the crime.

Court attaches say this is the first time in seventy years that a mistrial has been declared under such circumstances. LEARN BY SCULPTURING Students Model Prehistoric Creatures for Lasting Impressions. B’l Science Service PROVIDENCE, May 16.—How to make the great clumsy beasts that inhabited the world millions of years ago seem real to the modern college students has been solved in an unusual way by Dr. Bradford Willard of Brown University. Students in Dr. Willard's classes are required to try their skill at sculpture and to model the prehistoric creatures. To model a tusked mammoth or a dinosaur with a spiny frill down his back or an ancient bird with teeth, the students have to do more than glance at the pictures in the textbooks, and the principles of anatomy that they work out with their owm hands are remembered, the experiment shows.

CITY BREWERY TO BE USED IN MAM OF ICE London Owner Arrives to Direct Installation of New Machinery. BY DAN M. KIDNEY Business is to be resumed at the old Indianapolis brewery—but not in the beer business. Such was the announcement made today by W. F. Hammond, London, England, secretary of the Indianapolis Breweries Limited, which for thirty-six years have owned the Madison Ave. plant of which Albert Lieber is president and John Gieson, superintendent. Hammond is here to make plans to rehabilitate the plant and to purchase $50,000 worth of ice-making machinery. For the place that once produced luscious bre vs with ice as a side line, is now to confine activities to ice. Will Make Ice “We expect to enter the artificial ice market as soon as possible,” Hammond declared. “Our new machinery will give us from 150 to 200 tons capacity. “Then we expect to branch into ice-cream production, since thacseems to have replaced beer in American taste, at least legally. “English owners of this business have had a sentimental interest in it) and we hate to dispose of the old brewerv that w r as once a thriving industry, which produced good revenue. No Hope of Dry Law Repeal “No, we hold no hope of America ever repealing the dry laws. There is too much revenue in it. Revenue for bootleggers and professional prohibitionists. “We do think that America owed the bond and stockholders of the English-American brewery interests at least a moral obligation in regard to our properties. We had $2,150,000 invested in this Indianapolis plant and now all the bonds are wiped out. “During these dry years we have scarcely been able to meet the tax payments. We hope under this new plan to once more employ a good force of men at the plant and again make some returns on our investment.” Local Plant a Pet The syndicate Hammond represents owms breweries throughout the United States. The Indianapolis plant has been his special pet, however, for he has been coming to inspect the place tw'ice annually for the last twenty years. His first trip was made when he was but 20. There is small danger of England adopting the Americap-plan of prohibition. he says. “We have too much respect for law' to make one we can’t enforce,” Hammond asserted. “There isn’t a single American brewery owned by English capital that has ever brewed a gill of beer since the Eighteenth amendment was adopted.”

How I Bleach My Skin White "Tli, ,-amera 1, n merciless eye." sn.vs Miss Genevieve Barr, noted New York model, “and we Kiris who have to face It have a method of onr own for keeping our skins white and flawless. "We buy no ready-made preparations, but get three ounces of Orchard White it the drug store and add to this the juice of two lemons. This makes several weeks’ supply of a very line skin bleach which softens, refines uni whitens the skin without any harm or irritation. And because you use it while it is still fresh, it is twice as elTectve as any ready-to-iise preparation. I find it a dandy bleach for tan and freckles, too. Every girl who takes up posing in New York, sooner or later learns this studio secret. The bleach costs only a few cents to make.” —Advertisement.
