The most important case’ to be tried will be that of John Barber and Welcome charged with the , murder Thomas Dorr Main, on Christmas eve, 191g. Barker has made a confession in which he charges that he was with Main when he (Main) fired the fatal shot at Thomas Dorr Main. Barker says they went to the horie of Main which is located in an isolated sec- tion, well off the main road in the town of Hopkinton, a week before the i t.u-;.; o in nway;;igoutm t1 any crime. P was robbery. They called upon Main again on Christmas and remained for a long time. When they came out, ‘Welcome fired a shot through the win- dow at Thomas, but did not hit him. Then Thomas came to the door with lighted lamp in hand and exclaimed: “For God's_sake; what's going on.” Then Welcome fired a second shot Thomas fell backward into the door- way, the lamp dropped and set the house afire. Then Welcome went to the house, dragged the body of Thom- as in, and then came to where Barber was secreted. He gave Barber $8 as his share of the booty. The house was completely burned and the char- red ,remaing of Thomas Dorr Main weré found in the ruins. The accused ‘Wwere arrested by Sher- iff Wilcox and Deputy- Sheriff Bennett and a preliminary hearing was held before Judge Oliver H. Willlams in the Third district’ court at Wseterly October 18. 5 ‘Both were adjudged probably guil ty and were held for trial in the su- perior court. Assistant Attorney Fred J. Otis appeared for the state. Attorney Allen for ‘Main and John J. Dunn for Barker. There are several other es that will be tried by the attorney general at this session as well as a number of civil cases, which were continued from the last session which was whol- ly occupied at Westerly in the trial of Engineer Charles H. Mansfield, charged with manslaughter in connec- tion with railroad wreck at Bradiord. Among the néw cases is the civil action of Rosie Freeman against An- drew W.

How much happier we would be if our lives were hid with Christ in God.

Germany is known to be build- ing submarines rapidly and there is the possibility of a starvation cam- paigh against England. Its effects would concern all nations. The TUnited States might find it difficult to avoid complications. American Attitude Flat and Final. The American attitude is flat ana fi- nal. No technicalities will be admit- ted. Ships must not be sunk without warning or without provision for the tafety of passengers facing high seas or distance from shore. The armed ship issue undoubtedly will be ad- vanced by Germany, but will not be accepted. Secretary Lansing fore- saw it last March when, without an- nouncing his reason, ne decreed that a merchant vessel could carry a small defensive. gun. If that endangers submarines, that is part of their weak. ness.

Edgland invokes the doctrine of centiruous voyage and allows only enouch supplies to enter these neutral countries to meet their minimum needs, despite the fact that goods imported to a neutral country become part of its capital stock subject to re-exportation if desired.
