-V Nobody's Business * / . Written for The Chronicle by Gee McGee, Copyright, 1&28. The HUte Vs. Jones The indictment in this case was "squashed" when the defendant's attorney showed the judge a flysj>eck on the srrest warrant. The judge cautioned the prosecuting attorney to be careful about flies when drawing future legal documents and reminded him that all t's must he crossed and 's dotted or the case would be nol prossed and otherwise exterminated. He "recited" caa,e No. 99999, Pete vs. Dock, II. ?S. Civil Code, Vol. 88, Page &W, Section 666, Opinion 7777, Article 44, Laws of Wis. The State Vs. Smith This case became abortive when the lawyer for the defense proved to the court that Hob Bibbs stool on his head behind a smokehouse during the Cleveland administration, and thus became disqualified as --a juror and ho also failed to sign a check in 1D and 17 for 2 dollars worth of homebrew he bought from his wife's aunt. He had also failed to register as a citizen in 10 and 10. The case was thrown out of court and Act No. 77880'J was cited by his Honor, the same having to do with case No. 28, Hunk vs. Punk, Civil Code 22, as shown in Paragraph 66, Document 101, Envelope hud, Kentucky Journal of Misdemeanors. Hopp vs. Jump A mistrial was ordered in thi? < a*e when it became known to the court house janitor thftt witness Smoke swore that the defendant was shot on the annex instead of in the nllev a s brought out by a previous witness win. bad not qualified a* n voter since he got off the chaingung in 10 and 12. Further mitigating circumstance accumulated when Bosh swore that he was with the defendant 2 weeks before the melee anJ 1 ? ' ' that he smelt like a fruit jar immediately after the fracas.. Case No. Ill, Vol. 4, Spain vs. France, Year 1 <>17, was chosen as an alibi fpr ctr.de/iflK the mistrial. Monk vs. Catt -This case was sent to the supreme court on a demurrer in 10 and 20. Monk was suing Catt for the return ofT'jttg whicw strayed into hts backyard in August without a written permit from his daddy. The supreme court sustained the demurrer of the lower court, but the attorney* for the defense (who, by the way-*voted for Hoover in the last election) carried the case to the U. ?S. Supreme court, but Judge Advocate Botts decided that the lower court erred when it spelt Catt with one "t" and reversed the decision of the pig. Case, State of Idaho vs. Jackass proved to be a parallel case, therefore further action will be deferred unless Monk pays Catt's cost and vice versa.

Nineteen Passengers Killed Islet a, New Mexico. April 11.--! Nineteen passenger* of an east bound * Pickwick Cray Hound bus were killed I and eight seriously injured today; when the bus was struck by a westbound Santa Fe fast mail train near 1 h ore.

Over a Billion Deadly Germ* | in a Single Drop of Water Germs are so small that there may be as many as one billion, seven hundred million of them in a drop of water. And just a few of these tiny germs, if they get into your blood through a cut in your skin, may mako you so sick you will be in bed for weeks?may cause the loss of a limb through bloo^i poisoning?may even infect you with thrft most dreadful and fatal of diseases, lockjaw. Just because you can see no dirt in- a cut does not mean that it is clean. You cannot see. germs. The only safe and sane thing to do, is to thoroughly wash every cut. no matter how small, with Liquid Bornzono. to kill the germs, and then dust it with Borozone Powder, to hasten the hcalinir. Liquid Borozone costs 30 cents, -oil cents, $1.20 and $l.f)0; Borozone Powder, 30 cents and t?il cents, and can be had at Delvalb Pharmacy, Camden, S. ('. \ " >4 Dr. H. M.

I Uishopvljle, April 11.?-What happens when a rapidly moving object strikes an immovable one wan fully demonstrated here Wednesday night about 1U o'clock when a young man psmed Lynch, working with an engineering party of the highway department, mistook K. iL I^aney's residence for a target and from all the visible evidence must have plumbed it at 36 to 40 miles an hour. This residence is located on Main street and faces the entrance to Ridge. Lynch was evidently joining out of Ridge street and turned neither to the left nor to the right, but jumped the sidewalk straight a head leaving a space of some 12 fe r where there ure no signs of an automobile track, struck the front yard and head on into Laney'a porch, missing the steps by a few inches. The impact broke a <1 by 8 sill of rich yellow pine and transmitted the shock- through a cross sill to the second room where it knocked down two vases and cracked the plastering. The sill wasn't just cracked, it was shattered and broken entirely in Ko, and it rexted on a foundation wall of brick. What of the car and the occupant? To look at what is left of the automobile nobody would believe it possible for one to come out of such a wreck alive and yet Lynch did, and so far as can Ik* learned has only a few bruises about the face. The car had to be pulled out from under the sill, the air in the tires being let out to do it. The front is folded up like a partly closed camera, the fan spindle sticking out through the radiator, axle twisted and bent and j other damage. Baldy Johnson, notorious ^piquor j dealer of Greenville, was sentenced to serve two years in the Federal prison in Atlanta at Greenville Monday, when he pleaded guilty in Federal court to conspiracy to violate the liquor laws.
