Adrian Notes. From the Journal. Little Ora Lucile, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Murphy, died at the home of her parents in Grand River township, Friday January 3rd, 1918, aged two months and five days. One of the most delightful enter- tainments of the winter was the ban- quet of the New Century Club on New Year's night at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Argen- bright, when the ladies of the Club served an elaborate six o'clock din- ner to their families. On arriving at the Argenbright home we were re- ceived by Mrs. Argenbright and in her charming manner bade us wel- come. After the guests had arrived they were ushered into the dining room where the forty quests were seated at three long tables and told to help themselves. And such a feast, there was turkey, and dressing cran- berry sherbert, celery, pickles, escal- loped oysters, mashed potatoes, hot rolls, salads, ice cream, angel food cake and coffee.

Healy’s parole as of the question of allegiance to the Republi- can party and President Taft, held a final caucus with himself on January 13, practically repudiated several dif- ferent positions which he had defen- ded with spirit and energy on vari- ous previous occasions and issued the parole. Before the recent recti- fications of grades and curves, the line over La Veta Pass in Colorado, had a curve so sharp that it is related that a nervous fireman, essaying to throw a shovelful of coal into the firebox, actually deposited it in the lap of a gentleman seated beside an open window in the last sleeper of the train. A map of Governor Had- ley’s course in the Healy matter would closely resemble the align- ment of the line over La Veta Pass. Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 13.—The third trial of Dr. B. Clark Hyde for the murder of Colonel Thomas H. Swope, when called in the criminal court here today, was postponed un- til January 15 to give attorneys for the defense opportunity to file mo- tions. Frank P. Walsh, attorney for Dr. Hyde, filed three motions this after- noon in the office of the criminal clerk. The first objects to the pres- ent trial on the ground that Dr. Hyde’s life has been in jeopardy for the same offense. The second asks that the defense’s experts be allowed to examine the viscera of Colonel Swope. The third asks that the de- fense be allowed to examine a chloro- form solution which the state alleges was drugged with strychnine and used on Col. Swope. The motions will be argued tomorrow.

Washington, Jan. 14.—A_news- paper story discussing the per capita circulation of money in the United States in a humorous vein has flooded the Treasury Department with appli- cations for the $34.72 which, if the nation’s wealth were divided equally, would be the possession of every man, woman and child. The story, intended facetiously, advised those who needed the money to draw upon the government. Letters today swamped George E. Roberts, director of the mint. One woman wrote: Kindly send me by parcel post my dividend of the $3,350, 727,- 000, which is $34.72, in $1 bills and seventy-two pennies. Mr. Roberts has drawn a circular letter in which he must disappoint the applicants with the information that the Treasury Department month- ly computes the per capita circulation on a theoretical basis and has no con- trol over its distribution.
