TARRING PARTY TO SOOII KNOWVERDICT Fate of Three Whom Miss Chamberlain Accuses in Jury's Hands. (National New Association) LINCOLN CENTER. Kan., Nov. 23. The Mlsi Mary Chamberlain "tarring" case was only four hours from the Jury when the court opened today and Attorney Ritchie began the final argument to save the three men on trial for smearing tar on the girl's limbs. He was to be followed by special prosecutor A. N. Hawes in the closing argument for the state. Each was limited to two hours by the court who expressed the wish that the case be rushed to the Jury. The case went to the jury at noon. Attorneys for the defense regarded the Judges instructions as favorable to their clients. The instructions were that the defendants might be found guilty of aiding and abetting in the crime, even though they were not present. If it could be proved, said the
court, that the attack was a direct result of counsel or advice given by the defendants, they should be found guil
ty. But the mere fact that the defend
ants had talked with the assailants of
Miss Chamberlain regarding the con
templated attack was not in itself sufficient ground upon which to base a conviction. Miss Chamberlain came into court accompanied by her mother. The two occupied chairs close to and facing the Jurors. When the girl, whose story of being seized and tarred by ten leading citizens of Shady Bend and their sons, took this advantageous position, the three men on trial, A. N. Simms, Sherrlll Clark and John Schmidt, moved their chairs so that they, too, were in direct range of the jurors vision. The other seven men have entered pleas of guilty and are awaiting sentence. A would-be auditor of the speakers was Ed Rlcard, who is confined in the little one-story jail under the north eaves of the court house. Rlcord is the man who drove the girl to the scene of the outrage. When the prosecutor began his address, Rlcord, who roams at random in the interior of the jail, because he is the only occupaut, chucked a shovelful of coal in the stove, and went over to the front door to listen. As the speakers voice became louder Ricord said: "I'll bet he's giving it to us. I'm sorry I can't hear those speeches."

POSTUM 10 Days In place of coffee or tea shows which is best for Health "There's a Reason"
(National News Association) DENVER, Colo., Nov. 23. Mrs. Gertrude Gibson Patterson, pretty, petite,
vivacious, playing the game of life for
the biggest stake of all her own lifeblood is the most cool, calm and wide-awake player in the dramatic battle, which Is now being staged in the old court house here.
A veritable riot occurred when hun
dreds of men and women fought each
other in efforts to gain admission to the court room to witness the trial. Many hard blows were struck, women knocked down and clothing torn. Emotional insanity and self defense will be the defense. While witnesses for the state resumed again today testimony by which the state hopes to show that the little woman killed her consumptive husiband, in accordance with carefully prearranged plans, Mrs. Patterson list
ened Intently to every word. Some times she quailed a little as bits of startling testimony were presented. Sometimes her checks flushed bright red. Again and again her greateyes flashed anger then question marks, then disapproval, and- often marked disdain for the prosecutor and his witnesses, who wer trying to send her to the gallows. But never once did she lose her composure. Tben those eyes, wonderful, forever changing, turned from the witness box and the firm-jawed, cold-voiced prosecutor to the jury. Upon these men, who must decide her fate, she bestowed look after look that appealed for sympathy. And smiles and smiles. In which she seemed to try to say, "I know you are my friends." The courtroom was again crowded today, as the prosecution resumed its testimony. Close to the girl prisoner sat her parents, worried, nervous, frightened yes, and awed by the dreadfulness of it all. These simpleminded folk from the little coal mining town where Emll Strouss, millionaire clothing manufacturer and man of the world, found beautiful Gertrude
Gibson in the full flush of her prettiness. just 16 years old, and carried her away to live a life with all its zest, ' palatial hotels to a murderer's cell, do not seem to understand what it all means. They only know that their little girl is In trouble, and mortgaging their little home, they have come to help her. "
Turkey's gradual change from a national system of time to a European .standard has led to a demand for watches with two dials to show both kinds.
