' Bun man in his car broke the worlds record for 100 miles on a circular track in the feature event of the second day of the Mardl Gras auto speed carnival. Burman made the distance, after a most remark able drive. In 1:42;S9V, this being eleven minutes faster than the previous record, made by Clemens, In Indianapolis, In 1W. There were six other races, all of which were at short distances. The weather was cloudy, but the track was In almost perfect condition. In the first race. Jimmy Ryall made too 'wide a turn at tne beginning o( the stretch apd, losing control of his car, It ran Into'tha fence. The machine was de ipollshed. beyond repair. Ryall'a escspe was cemarkable. as he was traveling faster than a mile a minute. . The 100-nlle race, open to stock cars, started with three entries: Burman (Buick), Robertson (Simplex) and Strang (Isotta). Robertson started off in the lead, with Bur man second and Strang third. At the end of the first mile Burmsn had taken the lead, which he held until the end of ths rsce, with the exception of one mile. In the seventy-fourth mile Strang was forced to stop for the second time, his steering gear being out of order. It could not be re paired In time, so he retired permanently. Burman'a driving was the most sensa tional ever seen in this city. He drove hard from start to finish, cut his turns sharp and never once during the whole race was he forced to stop for anything. Burman drove alone, with the. aid - of a mechanician, and his stock car was stripped to a skeleton. The world's woman's record for one mile on a circular track was broken by two and one-fifth seconds In the sixth race, by Mrs. Joan Cuneo, her time being 1:00V Mrs. Cuneo drove a remarkable rare In this event, her daring In rounding the curves causing great excitement.

Dr. King's New Ilfc.oery. the quirk, safe, suns reugq and mid rvd. few and H u Far saa by liaUn If ug ' INSANITY A "POPULAR PLEA Prominent Attorneys Insist on Right of Summoning' Alienists. OPPOSED TO C0UBT DOING THIS Connty Attorney Enallsh and Ed P. Smith Think Each Side Shoald Retain the Exercise of This Power. A defense of Insanity is growing popular. Such a defense was made for Van Goodell and a claim that Mrs. Etta Banner was out of her mind will be made by Attorneys Gerlng and Murphy when the woman Is put on trial for shooting her brother-in-law. It will be urged that the attack on her daughter's reputation so preyed on Mrs. Banner's mind that, she became Insane and was insane when, armed with a revolver, ha found her husband and hie brother In front of a cigar store and fired at the lat ter point blank. ...... Attorneys and "the "majorfly . of laymen do not look upon the- defense of Insanity in quite the same light. Needless to say there Is an overwhelming prejudice against the claim because it Is used or scorns often to be used In thoso cases such as of Van Goodell and Mrs. Etta Banner, when the fact of the killing cannot be disputed, and it thus appears to the legally Inexpert simply a trumped-up device to cheat Jus tice of a murderer's punishment. Even making the assumption that this Is true, there is little likelihood of a change of procedure as regards calling' insanity experts to the stand. The Douglas county bar almost to a man would oppose any proposition to shut lawyers off from sum moning what witnesses they wish by put ting the summoning of alienists Into the hands of the presiding judge. The aama is true with regard to all expert evidence. Mora Talked Than Pleaded. "Insanity la more talked about than pleaded," declared Judge Lea Estelle of the district court. "In all the years I have been connected with criminal casus in one way and another I have known of but one case with which I was connected when insanity was actually urged in behalf of a prisoner. I do not think that all told there have been six cases of th,e kind In the district court of Douglas county in all these years." "Lawyers will vigorously oppose any at tempt to take out of their hands the right to call any witnesses as to a material point," said Attorney K. P. Smith. "I doubt if the court will ever be empowered to de prive a defendant of his right in this mat ter." County Attorney English holds a similar opinion on the point and likewise half g dosen other lawyera asked for their views. Mr. English declared: "There Is a popular misconception on I S. S. S. Is the best treatment for Catarrh because it is a perfect blood purifier. It is the only medicine that is able to get down into the circula tion and entirely remove the catarrhal matter and impurities which produce the trouble. As long as the mucous membranes and tissues are kept inflamed and irritated by this impure and infected condition of the blood Catarrh will remain. Its disagreeable and dangerous symptoms, of ringing noises in the ears, mucus dropping back into the throat, headaches, watery eyes, difficult breathing, and even stomach disorders and weakened health, cannot be perma nently relieved until the blood is purified. Nothing equals S. S. S. for thiti purpose. It goes down to the very root of the trouble, and removes every particle of the catarrhal matter from the blood and enriches this vital fluid so that all the mucous surfaces are supplied with nutritive, healthful qualities, in stead of being constantly irritated and inflamed by impurities is ths circula tion. Then the symptoms begin to pass away and when 8. S. S. has entirel purified the blood. Catarrh Is permanently cured and the general health greatly built up.

NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY this point growing out of ths first Thaw trial. That case was stopped, you remem ber, while an official commission examined Into the insanity of Thaw at the time of the trial. This, legally, was an entirely different proposition from the question as to whether he was Insane when he killed White. The statutes of Nebraska provide for just such a question as to the sanity of a defendant when on trial." BOHEMIANS HONOR LINCOLN Eleven Societies Join Snnday .Holding?
