NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1914 It is worth so much to intending piano buyers, that they should know of the many advantages of this sale, we are summing up the whole proposition again This is a sale which was inaugurated by The Autopiano Company, New York City. A We are participating in it at their invitation, along with 15 other houses throughout the Umisd States. Out of 5000 instruments they intend to dispose of through this plan, we were allotted 250 pianos and 150 player-pianos, for this section. When we have disposed of this allotment, we can get no more to sell upon the same terms and conditions. The pianos sell regularly at 350 dollars each. This sale’s price is 266 dollars each. Invest $1 here tomorrow Copyright, 1914, Stone & McCarrick, Inc. It may be putting it rather strong to command you to invest your money here. Let us put it this way. : If we had the power, we would insist upon every person in this city, who is think- ing about getting a piano, to investigate this sale. Because, this is a sale of merit. v It is a sale-of more advantages to buyers of pianos than any other piano sale ever The second year’s payments, 2 dollars a week, etc., ¢ You have been given every protecticn rhat we, who are conducting this sale, could think of, which would be of benefit or as- surance to you, in making your purchase. You can get your money back after a thirty days’ trial of the piano or player-piano. ‘The player-pianos sell regularlyat 550 dollars em:hp Th‘l: sale’s price is 413 dollars each. One dollar is your initial ent. Either upon the piano or the player-piano. The instrument you select is delivered at once. You may exchange at any time, up to within one year from the date of your purchase, 3 without incurring any loss or expense. The balance is spread out over a period of 3 years and 8 months time—without your having to pay additional interest for the accommodation. You are given an unconditional guarantee covering the first five years’ life of the instru- ment. 1t is a sale in which a single dollar is a big factor. A single dollar starts you in the ownership of a piano which will be a credit in your home during half your natural lifetime. : " . A gingle dollar a week will meet your payments for the first entire year. only one dollar and 25 cents a week. A single dollar spent in this sale is an investment. It is an investment which immediately pays a cash dividend, for you buy 350 dollars worth of as satisfactory pispo as you can possibly put in your home for 266 dollars, to say nothing of the dividends in refined entertain- mhent and instruction. | Come._in tomorrow and look at these pianos. You will not be urged to purchase. =~ We will be perfectly con- tent to let your own gaod sense be the judge of whether or not you should seize this opportunity. This is so arranged that your easiest pay- ments come during the first year of your agreement: your next easiest payments, dur- ing the second year, etc, etc, And, as a crowning feature, we are going to make it a practise during this sale, to cancel the account of any purchaser who dies before all his payments have been made, provided only that his account is up to date at the time of death.

Again, she dropped into an ion of sadness, as when she mentioned the visit she paid to the morgue to view the dead body of the woman whom the state claims she killed: _She looked into faces of the Jurors with steady eyes when she de- siréd to impress them with some par- ticular point and flashes of resent- fulness played across her features when certain points of the story of the negress were under discussion. Mrs. Carman was on_ the witness stand nearly an hour under direct ex- amination. She will undergo cross examination tomorrow. Defense Sprang a Surprise. The defense sprang a surprise when George M. Levy, her attorney, called her name and asked her to take the stand. The court has been adjourn- ing every day at 4.30 o'clock.. The crowd in the courtroom had been lis- tening. with little apparent intnrest to stories told by witnesses called in an effort to break down the testimony offered by Frank Farrell, the Bowery character, who is another of the peo- ple’s important witnesses, and many of those who had been in attendance throughout the day had left the trial chamber when, nearly fifteen minutes after the reguldr closing time, the de- fendant was called. Voice Scarcely Audible. After Mrs. Carman had told her name and -given her address, she sat down in the witness chair and folded her gloved hands before her on the bar. She sat well forward chair, at times leaning far out over her hands. She talked in a voice that ‘was scarcely audible. Several times Mr. Levy had to request her to talk a little louder so the jurors could hear her. Not a Werd Was Missed. Not a word, however, was missed by the spectators or the jury. A hush had fallen over the room the instart her name was called and she com- manded complete attention every mo- ment she was t ng. When she smiled, she found ready response from the jury. Her smile seemed comrel- Ung and several of the jurors were seen to return it. Each guickly re- lapsed, however, into the prevailing solemnity of the jury box. = Was Not Insanely Joalous. he wife of the Freeport physiclan admitted evervthing about the tele- phonlc instrument which she hed in- stalled in her husband's office, but she flatly denied that she was “insene'y Jealovs.” She said she had hesrd peo- Ple agk her husband “how all his girls | ; were.” Sometimes he had stayed out e s he stayed ou Explained Every Action. Because of her daughter, she =aid, she didn't want to obtain a divorce. But if her husband was as bad as he had been painted to her, she wanted to know it. If she found out what she hsa.;g. wes true, she sald. she had detfmined that she would con- tinue to live in the same house with him as if nothing had ever happened, but. that she would never even spezk a word to him again. Then, on the morning after the murder, she told, she tore out the device that the dis- trict attorney termed a ‘‘mechanical eavesdropper’ because she thought that her husband already had enough to bother him. She explained her eve ery. action. Corroborated ‘Some of State's nesses. Mrs, Carman even corroborated some of the state’s witnesses by admitting that on the evening of the murder she had called to her daughter Eliza- beth to stoy playing the piano. But she did this, she swore, because she had a headache, and not, as the pros- ecution has intimated, because she wanted to listen over the “mechanical eavesdropper” to what her husband was saying to a woman in his office. Flat Denial of/ Maid’s 8tory. She admitted, too, that on one oc- casion she looked in the same window as that through which the assassin of Mrs. Bailey fired, But this, she said, was because she knew that a trained nurse of whom he appeared to be fond, was in his office. The story of her actions was complete to the finest detail. In denying that ther® was truth in any part of Celia Cole- man’s story, she made no qualifications. She denied every accusation without reservation. Celia’s testimony, ac- Wit. ON THIS NEGRESS RESTS THE FATE OF STATELY MRS. CARMAN. Did Delia Coleman lie or tell the truth?

When questloned by the authorities after the murder the Coleman girl told conflicting stories, but on the stand in the trial she could not be shaken. cording to Mrs. Carman, was & pure fabrication from beginning to end. Finished Fresh and Cheerful. When Mrs. Carman stepped down from the stand she was .mngb as fresh as when she went on, e walked around the rear of the jury box, grabbed little Elizabeth, her daughter, up in her arms and kissed her aga ) “Oh,” she said, turning to her moth- er, Mrs. Platt Conklin, “I do so hope they will believe. I told everything T knew. I told the truth and that surely shou'd be enough.” armoun tice Kelby asked District Smith how long the cross examination would take, remarking that he was willing to sit a Iitlp longer if the jury was. “We'll not be able to complete this cross examination this evening,” said the district attorney, with a smile. So when the trial is resumed tomor- row morning, Mrs. Carman wil n take the stand. At the jafl t it it was sald she was more cheerful than at any time since her arrest.

The farmer can neither help himseif nor be helped ,by others until he or- ganizes. The economic distribution of farm products is today the worid's greatest problem. Our transportation systems are the dray carts of agriculture and can be made capable of farm products. The middleman is nothing more than a farm hand but he is able to fix his own wages and to collect them and to multiply his transactions as he pleases. Bumper crops without market bacil- ities have sent more farmers stagger- ing down the back alleys of agriculture than all the pests and droughts that ever cursed the nation.
