A little pergonal encounter between District Attorney Steiwer and I A. Esteb of Echo furnished some amuse ment for the court spectators this morning. The attorneys were exam ining the Jurors In the case of the State vs. Gulllford and Kirk. "Would the shedding of tears by the counsel for the defense have any effect upon your deliberations" he asked several of the Jurors, evidently having In mind the emotion the Echo- lawyer sometimes puts Into his final argu ments. The latter was spurned to re turn the compliment "Do you believe In hypnotism?" he aaked one Juror. "Do you believe In personal magnet ism or personal beauty as a force?" The luror couldn't aulte see the bear Ing of the questions until Col. Esteo continued, "to be more explicit would the tthvsical beauty of the prosecut Ing attorney, his winsome smile and his pearly teeth have any effect upon you In considering this case? Would ii make anv difference to you If you knew him to be of Teutonic birth or any other birth or whether he was ever born at all?" School Board AjraJn Sued.

There have been many theories ns to the base from which the airships operated. They may have sailed from Cuxhaven, but It Is the opinion of many aeronauts that this distance was too great. Tho big base in Germany for airships Is at Dusseldorf. but ttiere Is a belief that a new base, perhaps nt JCeebruses. which the Germans h.we occupied shortly after they took Ant werp, was the one used. r NEWS OF FARM AND RANGE Illuchtem Sells for Sl."0.
