One was a detective, the other a relative of the, little girl. They turned in 4he path and saw the grave. Upon it was sprawled the body of an old man, a bullet through the temple. A pistol, oge cartridge gone, lay beside him. Neither of -the men spoke, but as the detective, unconsciously . professional, picked up the pistol, his companion star- ed at the body, quietly, not seeing. In- stead'a picture of his home, ome night months ago, came to him. Six-year-old Emma Fuchs had . dress- ed as a gypsy, to give “grandpa some fun when he came home.” Grandpa knocked at the door, and Emma, Rom- any regalia and 21, scurried beneath the table. Grandpa came 'in, and smiling, counterfeited fear at the little stranger who popped fro beneath the table. To 2dd to the acting, he playfully pointed a pistol he had picked from a dresser, |at the little gypsy. | There was a shot. The little girl fell. {When the police came, grandpa was holding Emma, the “little gypsy,” in his tarms. She was dead. The man standing by the grave smaw the -drama again,-and he saw grandpa as he had been since that day, lonely, brooding, thoughtful. -Even 2 day or two ago, grandpa, no longer a- grandpa, but just Ernest Fuchs, glanced in windows of toyshors, more than ordinary rich with Christmas gifts. Then the man by the grave saw grand- pa, leaving the house yesterday for a “visit to Greenlawn. cemetery.” And Charles Fuchs, with the detective [ beside him, stopped ‘etaring at the grave, leaned over.and softly touched his. fath- er's cold hand. The detective prepared o report “a suicide in Greenlawn ceme- tery.” CHIEF JUSTICE TAFT HAS UNDERGONE MINOE OPEEATION Washington, -Dec. 21.—Chief Justice Taft submitted to an operation last Sunday. for the removal of calculi from the bladder, but today was said to-be in good condition. .

He found bits of alligater a=d and then he came uvvn pieces of skulls the character of which was new to him. He delved further in an effort to um- cover complete skeletons. His students helpers returned to their school and he kept on alone, but had no further suc- cess. Bad weather finally set in Thompson was compelled to his work. He had, however, hundreds of bones and skulls of great research value. He plans to return to Sioux county next year and resume work in the channel bed. “Western Nebraska undoubtedly is the richest field in América for this sort of work,” said Mr. Thompson recently “and we hope to make startling discoveries in the next two or three years.

Today’s testimony was concerned chief- question as to whether it had entered the front. Counsel for the defense, in their questioning of prospective jurors, had indicated that self-defense would be offered as a plea. Dr. Raymond Gandy, a surgeon of Stamford hospital who treated Montag- nino immediately after the shooting, tes- tified that the bullet had entered through who was present when the bullet was re- moved by the surgeon corroborated his testimony. Medical Examiner Dr. B. C. ‘Weaver, who performed the autopsy, tes- tified that he was unable to tell whether or not the bullet entered through the back because of the condition of the body. David E.

Three or four performances are enough. And tne patrons of the movies have their rights as well and should, I : think, be given a full hailf of the time. “The movies are highly profitable and if the latter half of each week were reg- ularly deveted to them, they ought to bring in enough money to offset possible | losses on plays acted by a permumcus company in the first half of each week.
