No mystery attaches to the manu facture of a modern newspaper, but a consldersble amount of mechani cal skill In combination with brains and hard work Is assumed as neces sary. Every point In the operation was shown, and those who hereto fore had known nothing of a pub lishing shop went away Impressed. Naturally the visitors were more In terested in the mochanical end of the news publishing process. The rcportors and editor at their desks seemed tired and harassed, and ex cited sympathy. The visitors saw cuts made from mats, the linotypes operatod, tho I.udlow turn out head and ad type. and they watchod the big Duplex press run oft several thousand cop ies or the eight comic pages. . But that crowd. It was an In clement evening, and not expecting such a throng. The News, staff was simply overwhelmed. Few of the visitors could be escorted personally through the entire plant. Every cffoVt was mndo to point out and explain everything to ovoryone. The staff members simply could not do the occasion Justice. But the visit ors did not mind.

Mrs. Neil was shot four timet with a .38 Wesson revolver and from the effects of the bullets it is estimated by the pol ice that the two could not have been separated more than three feet when the shots were fired. Three of the shots entered the body of Mrs. Neil, two shots, either of which would have proved fatal. ..The first shot entered the left breast above the heart and the second shot about an inch below the right ear. The bodiet of the two were not found until late in the afternoon when Jean, the eight-year-old daughter of the Neil family returned from school and discovered, lying half way through the door leading from the kitchen to the back porch, the bodies of her mother and Jillson.

Sherman Moreland, trial Judge advocate, be came a stubborn combatant to spreading defense evidenco on the court records. Representative Frank S. Rold, chief of Mitchell's counsel, battled with Moreland throughout the day. Rotd's combativeness even extended to the court, with which he found fault for holding a session at which the public was barred while tt wrangled over tho admlssabllity of Walsh's testimony.
