District Attorney Smith ill contend, first, that Carman's hy pothesis that he was the Intended vic tim Is wenk, inasmuch as he could not have been shot In any place ex cept the point of the left shoulder and that only an inch and a half of that shoulder was vttlun the anple of J the rsne permitted by the hole in I the window. Second, that Dr Carman saw the person who fired the shot, and that the ehot was fired by someone who lived In the house. Story Not All Told. The district attorney is takinp for the base of his attack the doctor's story that the shot really came from the window although the detectives are working on the bpothe8is that the shot was fired from the pantry and that Dr Carman has not told the entire story about what has occurred. Mrs Bailey was shot In the back and the bullet tore through and across the body, stopping in the left breast Furthermore it was brought out that Mr6. Balle must have been i looking back over her shoulder with j her body so twisted as a result that J the bullet took a diagonal path ln- stead of a straight one. ' Thi last deduction will be used 1 tn argue that It is evident that the person who fired the buullet was on I a level with Mrs Bailey and was '.' therefore in the room and not stand ing outside the window. As a final stroke, the district at torney, having shown the chart, will put t)r. Carman through a terrific crosB-examination for the benefit of the grand Jury. Mail to Testify.

But she will come nearer to telling the truth Her story will show that it is quite probable that she saw someone in the kitchen Just before the shooting and that she may have seen the per 6on who broke the window. "I have made a strong effort to trace the missing revolver. I have asked Carman to tell me JuBt where he went on the morning following the shooting. He has refused to tell me But I am now assured that Car ! man will take the stand and tell these I facts." The possibility that Dr. Carman might be arrested as an accessory af I ter the fact nis broached to Mr i Smith. 1 J '-Well, I hardly think so." replied 1 I Mr Smith. "He will be here when I I we want him Anyway, there is no i probability of such an action within i I the next few da s " 1 Levy Surprised. George Levy, attorney for Mrs Carman, declared that he had no idea I that Carman would be thus suspected 1 "The idea is preposterous." he said.

Illustrating I with a striking example the well known psychological theory especial-1 y prevalent in the theatrical world, to the effect that the playing of parts j with the same general characteristics leads the actress or actor irresistahlv to become the character in real life. Miss Lorna Russell the brilliant, young ingenue and daughter -f Ada I Dwyer, eloped to Farmington Satur-I day with Theodore Amundsen, the wealth' young scion of a well-known Salt Lake familv. and was married The romance was a brief but fer , nt one Both of the young people Mrs Amundsen being but 10 and her husband 21 arc prominent in Salt Lake's youncer social set. To a few f these the news came as a dis tinct surprise. It had been antici pated, however by the immediate rel atives of the young people, but had not been expected to take place quite! so suddenly. Mrs Amundsen will be remembered by the theatergoing public for her versatility last year when she appear ed with the Utah Stock company and j won instant recognition through her abilitj to vividly portray the part as signed to her In "Merely Marv Ann Her mother, Mrs. Harold Russell, whose stage name i6 Ada Dwyer, play ed the leading role. Mrs. Amundsen was also seen with Brandon Typan and Florence Stone in "The Deep Purple," "The Middleman ' and many ohter plays. She appeared with the stock compan during May. June and July of 1912. Recently she finished brilliantly a difficult engaeement In "Joseph and His Brother" at the Cen tury theater in New York nr BO!

"liat fish. " said Mr Lever, "and yon won't have to worry about the high cost of living or your hlgh I rieed stomach. There Is a world of fish and per sons might as well begin now to learn that they must eat fish, poultry, fruit and egetables. ' Our cattle supply Is gradually de creas'ng and we will hae to learn how to raise more beef or eat less meat." LYNCH I NGS ON THE DECREASE. There have been published recently certain statistics relative to the num ber of lynchings which occurred in the United States during the year l 9 1 3 The figures are interesting, and not lacking in encouragement. The number of Individuals who were denied the benefits of our court6 of law r the protection of our paid of fieials was fifty-two, all but one of w hom were negroes. In 1912 the total number was greater by twelve Of the fifty two lynched during the year, twenty-one had had no trial at all there had been no weighing of ev idence, and nothing but the most su perficial Inquiry into the question of their guilt Several of these were found, after they had been lynched, to have been innocent, their innocence was positively established i Testimony enough in itself to restrain men of even the lowest form of intellect from sanctioning lynch law ). The records show tnat at Spartan burg. S. C. nothing but the determina tion of a sheriff prevented the lynch ing of a negro charged with rape, who was afterward acquitted "f the crime by a jury composed of white men. The argument advanced by a certain class of people who are unwilling to concede that the American people are still submitting to murderous orgies by mobs, uamely . that "the Southern people will not tolerate attacks upon their women by the blacks." is given I a rude jolt by figures which show that ; of the fifty -two individuals lynched I only ten were charged (not convicted) of the crime of rape. Two things appear from the years showing: First, that lynchings are simply instances of brutal and vicious people seeking a form of entertain ment most to their satisfaction; and second, that the percentage of people who enjoy murdering human beings in the manner in question is becoming j smaller. St. Louis Times. CONTRAGTS FOR THE FORESTRY SUPPLIES Government contracts for about $100 000 worth of general supplies for the forestry service and nearly three times this amount of telephone equipment have been awarded for the fiscal year beginning July 1. 1915, ac cording to Mark Smith, in charge of the supply department of the service, who returned to Ogden yesterday af ter spending two and one-half months in Washington.

Washington July 12 News of the sudden death of Associate Justice H H Lurton of the supreme court at Atlantic City this morning came as a surprise to his host of friends in official and private life in this city and caused deep regret. Justice Lurton had a long and en viable judicial record in the state courts of Tennessee and on the fed eral bench, and was known and re spected by leading jurists and law yers and public men throughout the south and the middle west before his elevation to the supreme court by President Taft. Forced by frequent attacks of heart trouble which finallv caused his . death, to turn over his duties on the I supreme court to his associates, he I chafed under the necessity. His eany return to nis woik aur a. buuiu ern trip last winter is believed here to have hastened the end Realizing the difficulty President! Wilson will have in filling the vacan cy, speculation is rife already as to his s-accessor Many candidates have been mentioned. Among them are Solicitor General John W Davis, for mer President Taft, Governor Edward F. Dunne of Illinois, Secretary of the Interior Franklin K Lane, Frederick W Lehmann of St Louis and Attor ney General McReynolds III for a Year. For a vear or more Justice Lur ton a cone fc ion had been serious but he insisted upon performing his du-, ties until 1 yst December when he I was compelled to give up and go to Florida with his family. At that time it vvaa reported he would resign, but after fighting for health until April, he returned to Washington and re sumed his place on the bench to take an active part in one of the busiest sessions In the court's history. The court adjourned June 22 for the summer, and ten days ago Jus tice Lurton went to Atlantic City with his family hoping to gain strength In the salt air. Born at Newport, Campbell county, Ky . Justice Lurton was attending the county schools when the civil war be gan. Though only 17 years old, he enlisted In the confederate army and became a trooper under the famous General Morgan Three years after he was captured and imprisoned. Mother Rescued Him. A personal appeal by bis mother to President Lincoln brought about his release on parole and, when the war closed, he was studying law at Cumberland university He gradu ated in 1867 and began practicing law in Tennessee After serving four years as a Ten nessee division chancellor, he return ed to the practice of law in 1878, and eight years later was elected a judge of the Tennessee supreme court of which he became chief justice in 1893 The same year President Cleveland appointed him judge of the Sixth judicial circuit of the United States uu MUST REARGUE THE OIL LAND SUIT Washington, D C .

The case was first argued before the court in the absence of Justice Lurton and no conclusion reached by the eight justices. Reargument was made with Jus tice Lurton present, but no decision was announced It is expected that the case must again be reargued with the successor to Justice Lurton present. oo LEADING MANAGERS COMBINE FORCES Salt Lake, July 13 It is generally conceded without any question that the moving picture fans outnumber the baseball tans ten times over.

Lasky, who has secured the active co-operation of David Bciajco, the wizard of scenic effects and magnificent staging, and the Bosworth, incorporated, producer of Jack London's famous novels, have combined forces, the announcement is of more than passing interest Local Interest centers in the fact that this, the latest and biggest com bination in filmdom. was consummat ed by a former resident of Ogden and Salt Lake..
