Meanwhile, the artillery was in ac- tion again in the Chapel sector and at least one foreigner was wounded by shells which dropped across the international settlement boundary.

Takes Over Patrol Up on the northern settlement boundary the 31st U. S. Infantry took over the patrol from a British de- tachment. They were close enough to hear the shooting, bit their posi-j tion was about a mile from the ac- tion in Chapel. The second battalion spread along @ mile of the Soochow creek. Their patrol was in an area which constitutes the section of Shanghai's slums. American troops built bon- fires against the unaccustomed cold, The young fellows seemed to be enjoying it, but the old-timers who had served with the 31st in France and in Siberia were exercising the soldier's inalienable right to com- plain.

The Jap- anese force at Woosung was placed at 4,400 by their own officials. 27-Year-Old Woman Is Found Guilty of Killing Her Friend (Continued from page one) “This fight,” said Paul Schenck, chief defense attorney, “has just be- gun. Ninety-one persons, including Mrs, Judd, have placed their lives in my care during my career. Ninety- one of them still are alive tonight.” Mrs. Judd was arrested in Los Angeles last Oct. 23, a few days after the bodies of Mrs. Leroi and Miss Hedvig Samuelson, from North Da- kota, were found in trunks at a Los Angeles railway station, The two women had been killed in Phoenix Oct. 16. Mrs. Judd claimed the trunks at the railway station but fled when a baggage agent attempted to question her. Second Charge Held Mrs. Judd was tried only for the murder of Mrs. Leroi, a second mur- der charge having been held in abeyance. The trial was largely a battle of alienists, who argued over the mental condition of the defendant, the de- fense alleging she was insane when she killed the two women and later dismembered the body of Miss Samuelson to place it in trunks and @ suitcase. The state alleged jealousy was the motive, claiming the young woman was jealous over the attentions paid Mrs. Leroi by J. J. Halloran, wealthy Phoenix lumberman with whom Mrs. Judd was friendly. Mrs. Judd’s parents testified other members of their family had been insane.

In the meantime, let all who realize the seriousness of the movement on foot to move the state capital, get out and see to it that a good heavy vote is cast for Bismarck. It will be just too bad if we, who want it to remain where it is, stay away from the polls when this comes up for decision on election day. The vote from the West will have to be heavy to offset a pos- sible strong vote in the East for the opposing city. Let's not fail asleep on this proposition.” Says Jamestown Split Walter F. Cushing of the Beach Advance, another Bismarck ehthusi- ast, talked with Jamestown folk at the recent meeting of the state press association in Minot and comes out with the prediction that Bismarck will receive a majority of the votes cast in the Stutsman county seat. Here's what he says: “While at Minot last week we conversed with a number of Jamestown men on the subject of removal of the capital from Bis- marck to their city. Without ex- ception these men are opposed to such removal and they said that in their judgment Jamestown would probably give a majority vote against removal, or, at least, an even split, as the city as a whole was not responsible for the suggested removal, that proposi- tion being largely a scheme of Politicians seeking their own ends. “At neither the political con- vention nor at the state press meeting did we find any particu- lar sentiment for capital removal, it being reported that at many town meetings, of various sorts, even neighbors of Jamestown. resolutions against removal had been passed. This does not mean, however, that Jamestown will not get many votes, for 25,000 people signed the petition asking a vote on the matter, so that removal is a long ways from being a trifling thing to contend against. “The vote will be taken at the primary, Tuesday, March 15, only 39 days away, and all voters in- terested in the advancement of the western section of the state should make it a point to get out and vote.” Flaming Fats Cause Fires Frying fats frequently ignite and start disastrous fires.
