Collins, who were placed on trial In circuit court yesterday afternoon on the charge of burglarizing the Phoenix postofflce and the store of the Phoenix Mercan tile company some time ago, walked out of the court room free men short- after the trial was begun, because the Indictment against them was im properly drawn. The two men whom the police and authorities regard as professional burglars, and who the police say serv ed burglary terms In the San Quentln, California, penitentiary, got the mon ey taken on their person when arrest ed, hurried back to Medford and dis appeared. It la predicted that they lost no time in getting as tar away from Medford as possible and that they will never be seen in these parts again. There was a strong esse of circum stantial evidence aganst Slido and Collins, who wero defended by E. E Kelly. The lutter let tho caso bo called to trial and one witness be ex amined before he sprung his surprise on County Prosecutor Roberts by raising the point that the Indictment was technically faulty In that while It charged the prisoners with taking property from a building, it did not mention that tho building contained property. Judgo Calkins, after examining the Indictment and looking up the points of law Involved, held that Kelly's con tentlon was correct. A previous Indictment attacked by. Judge Kelly as attorney ror neienu ants was also held faulty and the case against J. A. Tornoy, In which Mrs W. W. Eifert was complaining witness dismissed because of it. The defend ant was accused of having sold prop erty without possessing title and tho case grew out of a boom day realty transaction Involving Siskiyou heights property for which Tornoy was agent. After the Jury had been drawn, and tho first witness called, the defect In tho indictment led to nn Instructed verdict. HI ONJICIORY LONDON7, June !).

It Is a short-lived pest, but It is evidently on tho Job every minute n tho night-time, Junging by the In roads It has made in sonio of the fields, Farmers cannot afford to suffe this loss in any crop, when there Is n fairly effectivo remedy. Suppose the normal profit in n sugar beet garden of given urea is $1000. If tho cut worm destroys 20 per cent of the plants, It has cost tho farmer $200 If tho farmer should lose that amount In any other way, he would tuko his eomplulnt to the courts, if jt were a matter that could bo judicially ad Justed. Penalty of XeglljftMieo Put If he lose that amount because a worm army or aero-fleet of bu;:s takes 11, the average agronomist re gards It as a part of tho penalty of chance. That view of the loss is un fair to the farmer, to his family and to tho public. It js not the penalty of chance. It la the penalty of negll itenco. Tho pol?on-d brau mush Is known to bo the best remedy no fur discov ered for the destruction of the cut worm In any field of plonts on which it feeds during Us brief period of war fare. It contains white nrseir, which kills the worm. The worm like." bran. Its gluttony kills it Not Too ImU Vet The bran mash should bo applied in the evcnfiuT, for the cutworm doe its deadly work at night. H Is not too late yet to apply It. although it should have been applied earlier by a week or ten days In most f,e!ds. If n larno area is to be covered with tho mash, it Is more economical for the farmer to make It. Consult your county pathologist and the entomolo gist In the Gurnett-Corey building. PARIS, June 9. After a two days' Mission during; which Admiral I.a cuze, minister of marine, and the eun iluct of the navy wore under lire, specially on account ol' merchant mu rine losses, t lie chamber of deputies voted lust night confidence in the gov ernment by ;I10 to 178. The hulk of the attack in the rinsing session cen tered on the ulleged laxity of meas ures taken lo combat submarines, in cluilins; reproaches that the budget did not provide sufficiently for unti suljnui lino measures. Premier Hibot, in defense of the g-ovemment, declared that the subma rine war had surprised the navies of nil the allies. He did not deny the peril ami asked for increased credits to meet this new form of warfure. "There is much to do," lie said, "in cluding the rejuvenation of the navy department's methods." The premier agreed to tiie creation of a depart ment of submarine defense. While the debute was proceeding in the chamber the senate unanimously adopted a bill revising the budget of tile minister of the navy, so as to in clude more ample credits i'or anti submarine measures. WELL WATER T The few wells and private water systems In Medford did the largest business in their history this past week because of the city water being muddy and unfit to drink for several days on account of the break In the Fish Lake dam and subsequent flood ing of Butte creek.

The most popular well in tho city was that of the Medford Soda works on South HartlotL street. It did a land office business day and night. "In the past three days not less than 10,000 gallons was taken from this woll," said C. I' Blgham yesterday. "Tho peoplo camo from all over on foot. In autos, carriages and nny way to get thero, and we gladly let them take away as much of tho water as they wanted to."
