I, Feb. 7.—Acquitted late Saturday of the charge of murdering her husband, Dr. C. F. Mohr, shot and killed August 31, 1915, Mrs. Elizabeth Mohr today in a statement said “I was confident, from the beginning of the trial, that no jury Would convict me. The charge of killing the man who was the father of my children, and to whom I had always hoped to become reconciled, is simply the culmination of a series of misfortunes which has clouded my life. “I sincerely appreciate the kindness and consideration #hown by the judge and jury, and the sympathy of the public at large. I am home again with my children, and I hope to be allowed in peace to devote the rest of my life to their welfare.” C. Victor Brown and Henry Speliman, negroes, who confessed to the murder of Dr. Mohr, were found guilty of murder and were commit ted without ball. Mrs, Mohr swooned when the verdict was rendered Another charge against Mrs. Mohr and the two negroes ts the shooting of Miss Emily Burger, who was riding with Dr. Mohr the night be was killed.

Gentlemen: I take my hat off to The Star as an advertising medium. When | took hold of ACME COAL last | month and opened miy yard office | soon found that it | needed publicity. 1 had many friends and old cus- tomers from former years, but without publicity but few of them knew that I was back in the business. So I called in my former advertising man, Mr. T. L. Mon- son of the Monson Advertising Co. The proposition | put up to him was a tough one. I had no advertising appropriation and did not want to create any. Whatever advertising | was to do must pay for itself at once. On such a basis it was out of the question to use more than one daily paper. The business required the most.circulation for the least money. THE STAR was selected. The first adv.—only 9 inches—appeared | Jan. 3rd. Before night | got results and the next day 1 was flooded. Ever since | have kept the mine shipping ACME COAL into Seattle every day. During the cold spell 1 kept 5 auto trucks, and as many teams as | could get, bus To say | am gratified is putting it mildly. In less than four weeks, using 50 inches of STAR space, with straightforward copy that tells what Acme Coal is and what it will do, I, have a business that would ordinarily take months of time and heavy advertising to produce, ; As a coal salesman The Star is certainly a dandy. Yours truly, O. M. LATIMER, Mgr. Acme Coal Co. 2 OAISTER ERT ot — PGR so pe OEE
