amid tha Judge, who went on with his case.
A significant point In connection with
tha Hyde decision is that It comes on
; April 11, exactly one year from the date
I that Ms trial began here.
A Important point In tha decision re
i mandtng Hyde was that the court said
i Judge Letshaw's action in ordering Dr.
Hyde locked up during the progreas of his
I trial was "Improper and unjustified."
Tha supreme court, Is setting aside the
yard let of the trial court, remands Hyde
to tha custody of the marshal of Jackson
county without ball.
Statement of Dr. Hyde.
Iter both Dr. and Mrs. Hyde each gave
out a statement. Dr. Hyde said:
"Of course I- am disappointed that my
rase was not reversed outright. I shall.
however, struggle on with an unbroken
spirit confident that I will convince not
only the officers of the law, out the world
of my complete Innocence of the terrible
charges laid agalnat me. In the darkest
hours of tny affliction I have been sub
talned by the loving kindness of countless
friends, which believed In my Innocence
aa well ns a firm belief In the Idea that
under our system of laws, while mistakes
of judgment upon the part of court and
Juries may temporarily Intervene, yet in
the end Justice is sure to prevail.
"I look forward with serene confidence
to my acquittal in my next trial. I have
learned that s, man can stand anything
with a wife like mine believing in him and
sustaining him."
'Mrs. Hyde Talks.
' ' Mrs. Hyde's statement follows:
"I was sure that the supreme court
would free -my husband. The law Is a
mystery to me. I was at Clark's side
during every hour of the time he waa
charged with committing these offenses
against those who were near and dear to
me. I know the utter falsity of the charges
against him. 1 would suffer again what
has been worse to me than a thousand
deaths, rather than to have had a hand
In the attempt to destroy the life and
character of an Innocent man such as my
husband. Of course 1 will hope on and on.
I know the law will give my husband
back to me, not because 1 love him and he
loves me, but because he la innocent."
The court's action remanding Hyde
with ball cast a gloom over the Hydes
and their attorneys. Frank Walsh, Hyde's
chief attorney, had Just previously ex
pressed his belief that the physician would
soon be at liberty.
Court officials and attorneya agreed that
the higher court's action on this point
waa final.
Virgil Conkllng, county prosecutor, waa
keenly disappointed over the verdict, and
declined absolutely to talk about It.
Opinion of Sepreme Coart.
Today's decision was written by Judge
Franklin Ferris, who pays particular at
tention to the typhoid fever epidemic," and
alleged use of strychnine and cyanide of
potaslum by Dr. Hyde aa brought out in
the trial.
The court reviews how the stats showed
the death of Colonel Moss Hunton October
1, Colouel Swops two days later, the epi
demic of typhoid fever, which In two
months "brought to bed between December

History of the Case.
The Mlmouri supreme nutria decision
today was on an appeal of Hyde's attor
neya for a new trial. He had been sen
tenced July 5, 1S10, to life imprisonment
by Judge l.atshaw. September 23, 1910, his
attorneys asked the highest court In the
state for a new hearing, charging error in
2j& points. These included the following
allegations:
The indictments were Illegal and the evi
dence insufficient to support the allega
tions, that competent testimony was barred
and Incompetent testimony received; that
prejudicial remarks were allowed by the
prosecutor and by the court, that the
court should not have revoked Hyde's bond
during the rial, and that the verdict was
the result of passion and prejudice.
The chief evidence attacked was that of
the Chicago and Michigan toxologlsts who
examined the viscera of the dead Bwopes;
and especial attack was made on Prof.
Yaugh of Michigan, who testified he found
strychnine in the liver of Colonel Swope.
Dr. Hyde was found guilty of murder
May 16, 1910. His inability properly to ex
plain the purchase of capsules of cyanide
was chiefly responsible for his conviction.
He said it was used to kill cockroaches;
the prosecution said it was to kill mem
bers of the gwope family and asked, "Does
a man kill cockroaches with poison cap
sules?" Two days and half after the argu
ments ended the verdict waa returned.
Srrlra of TjraTedles.
The list of the series of tragedies In
the Swope family was tha death of James
Moss Hunton, October 1, 1909. The prose
cution charged Hyde bled the patient be
yond the limit of recovery, purposely.
Two days later Colonel Swope waa
stricken with convulsions and died. Wit
nesses testified that a few minutes before
the convulsion. Dr. Hyde had given Colonel
Swope a oapaule similar to the cyanide
capsules It was shown he bought. The
colonel's will leaving $l,60o,0uO to relatives
waa filed, and then Miss Margaret Swope,
a niece of Colonel Bwope, became ill with
typhoid fever. Then Chrlstman Swops and
two other relatives mentioned in the will
became 111 of typhoid.. December 6, Chrla-
man Bwope died, having convulsions slml
lar to those of his uncle, the colonel.
Two days later two mors girls legatees
under the will became 111 with typhoid
fever and nurses at the trial testified
Hyde had Inoculated the sick persons with
the fever germs. Tha repeated and con
tinued illness and the two sudden deaths
aroused suspicion and a secret autopsy
was made of the exhumed body of Colonel
Swope and, later that of Chrlsman. On
the toxicologlst's reports and the testimony
of a druggist who sold Hyde the potaslum
as well as that of nurses In the Swope
home and of the typhoid patients, Hyde
was convicted.
Mrs. Hyde, a nloce of Colonel Swope,
stuck by her husband and against her
relatives and went on the stand in his be
half, but in vain. Hyde claimed the men
bad died of natural causes, said the cyan
ide was to exterminate vermin, and said
he had purchased typhoid fever cultures
to experiment with.

A man dues not count as wasted the Urns
ha spends in thinking over his business,
but he seems loth to give the same sort
of caieful attention to himself and to his
health. And yet his business would be
worth little without good health to care
for it. A business man tells how he did
himself good by carefully thinking over his
physical condition. Investigating to find
out what was needed, and then changing
to the right food.
"For some years I had been bothered a
great deal after meals. My food seemed to
lay like lead in my stomaeh, producing
heaviness and dullness and sometimes pos
itive pain. Of course, this rendered me
nrore or less unfit for business, and I made
up my mind that something would have to
be done.
"Reflection led me to the conclusion that
over-eating, filling the stomach with In
digestible food, was responsible for many
of the ills that human flesh endures, and
that I was punishing myself In that way
that was what waa making me so dull,

FORTUNE LOSES A SOLDIER
A Veteran of Many Hevolnllons and
m Character In a Story
Book.
Oeorge B, Boynton, more often called cap
tain or general or admiral than plain Mr.
Boynton, and one of the moat venturesome
of soldiers of fortune, died in New York
City recently, in a private hospital In West
Seventy-fourth street. He was 70 years old,
and his death was a consequence of the
exposure and hardships he had suffered in
the course of his eventful life. LJke al
most every other well known "gentleman
adventurer," Boynton had been picked out
as the original of the young engineer In
RlehardHardlng Davis' book, "Soldiers of
Fortune
It was from him. too, according to an
other tradition, that Guy Boothby got the
Idea of his story, "The Beautiful White
Devil." Boynton once discovered a white
woman who led Chinese pirates, while he
waa hunting them down In the China sea.
BOynton liked to surround himself with
a certain amount of mystery, and he would
never tell any of the details of his ances
try, other than that his father was a phy
sician and that he had been born on Fifth
avenue, a little north of Fourteenth street.
As a boy he ran away from home and en
listed in a federal cavalry regiment during
the civil war. After being wounded at
Pittsburgh landing, he left the army and
took to blockade running for the other
side, as being productive of more excite
ment. His steamship, the Letter B. made
several successful trips from Bermuda to
southern ports.
Later he was associated with Jim Flsk
In this city, waa a aort of political In
vestigator for Andrew Johnson, and finally
took up filibustering for ths Cuban revo
lutionists In the ten years' war. In 18i8
he supplied the Spanish pretender, Don
Carlos, with arms and ammunition from
Kngland, but they had a disagreement, and
Boynton always Insisted that Don Carlos
tried to have him assassinated. This waa a
weird story, in which a beautiful young
gypsy girl was involved. For some years
afterward Ilojnton stuck to South America,
reorganising armies and putting down or
Inciting rebellion: but in the end he went
to China on an expedition to exterminate
the plratea that Infested the coasts of the
China and Yellow seas.
While he was in Brazil in 1K90 he at
tempted to blow up the battleship Aqulda
ban. flagship of Admiral da Mello, In
surgent leader, in Rio harbor, but he was
arrested and sent to this country on Ihs
cruiser Charleston. Then, for a time, he
served President Crespo of Venezuela, and
,' general manager of the Orinoco cor
poration New York Post.
"The grandeur of the whole thing Is un
imaginable, reminding one of the stories of
one's hlldhood and the Jewels massed In
neaps waning ine iirsi-vonrer oil 1110 iiuui
of Aladdin's cave." It is thus that one
who has been privileged to make a close
Inspection of the late King Edward's crown
describes that Important item In the crown
Jewels; and some idea of the magnificence
of the crown which will be worn by King
George at the forthcoming coronation may
be gathered from the fact that to the 2,818
diamonds, 297 pearls, besides many other
Jewels, which formed King Edward's crown,
will be added two sapphires, fifty-six bril
liants and fifty-two rose diamonds.
The design of King George's crown will
be practically the same as that of King
Edward, which in turn was a replica of the
crown worn by Queen Victoria at her coro
nation In 1838. Ths royal crowns, however,
are remade for each coronation. This Is
necessary, of course, on account of the
difference In fie sizes of the heads of the
respective monarch. King Edward's meas
ured from temple to temple Just seven and
one-half Inches, and from the forehead to
the back of tha head six and one-half
Inches, the height being nine and one-fourth
inches. King George's head is slightly
smaller, and In addition he has desired that
a place may be found for a portion of the
Culllnan diamond, called, by command of
his majesty, "The Star of Africa." The
larger portion of the diamond will be added
to the scepter which King George holds
during the coronation ceremony.
According to the Times it Is probable
that ths smaller portion of the Culllnan
diamond will tcke the place of the great
prince regent sapphire, Immediately be
neath the black prince ruby, the great egg'
shaped Jewel which was worn In Ms hel
met by the Black Prince at many battles,
Including Crecy and Poitiers, the great
sapphire being transferred to the back of
the crown.
It might be mentioned that when the Cul
linen diamond, which, before cutting, wa
no less than one and one-quarter pounds' In
weight, was cut into two portions, a great
number of smaller diamonds were made
from Its "shavings," which were set in var
ious designs for the use of Queen Alex
andra.
The king's crown is simply one gorgeous
mass of Jewels, and so closely set that It
Is almost impossible to see anything of the
frame or gold setting. The base of the
crown, two Inches in depth, Is formed of
a bandeau of large round pearls and varl
colored Jewels. Above are four great
arches, which spring from the pearl-rimmed
bandeau and surmount ths purple-crimson
velvet cap. These arches are simply
masses of splendid diamonds, which give
the Impression of being thrown on in great
heaps. Then comes the orb, which sup
ports the St. Andrew's cross, both being
composed of Immense single-stone diamonds
of the finest water.
Perhapa two of the moat interesting
Jewels in the king's crown ars Queen Elisa
beth's earrings, two pear-shaped pearls,
which were brought out from among the
disused crown Jewels by special command
of King Edward to adorn the crown at his
coronation. Exactly as worn by the vlrgfn
queen at her own coronation In ISjS. these
Jewels were, by King Edward'a orders, left
untouched and fastened high on each side
of the arches of the crown and directly
under tha oro.
In the case rf Queen Alexandra's crown,
this wss composed ent4rely of diamonds,
not a single colored stone finding its way
into the design. It is possible that Queen
Mary will follow out the same plan. Many
diamonds privately owned by Queen Alex
andra were momentarily removed from
their settings and Inserted In the crown. A
few of the crown diamonds, including the
Koh-lnoor, were brought into requisition,
and the crown Jewelers temporarily sup
piled any deficiency.
Immediately after the coronation Queen
Alexandra's crown was taken to pieces;
Koh-l-noor, were brought Into requisition,
as a brooch or pendant for Queen Alex
andra's use, whilst her own dlsmonds were
reset !n their previous forms. London Tit-Bits.
Fifteen years ago the scientific world was
startled by the announcement that a Min
nesota man had invented a rotary engine
so powerful that though it could be placed
inside a large trunk It would have force
enough to drive a big liner across the At
lantic ocean. Every scientific organization
of note and every large railroad company
appointed a commission of experts to in
vestlgate. Learned scientists arrived from
foreign countries on almost every steamer,
ready to study this wonderful Invention of
an American. Newspapers devoted col
umns to the subject and the air was full
of reports about the millions of dollars
that capitalists were trying to force into
the Dockets Of the voting Inventor.
It was fully a montlr before the scientific
world was able to convince Itself that the
Invention was valueless. Then one of the
greatest fakes of the kind ever known went
down Into history.
The story Is recalled at this time because
of the appearance In Chicago of H. G.
I fays, president of the Hays-Weaver Mill
ing company of Bralnerd, Minn. Mr. Hays
was responsible for this scientific upset.
though he Insists that at first he was taken
in as much as anyone else. He was so
convinced of the inventor's sincerity that
he dreamed of becoming a multimillionaire.
At the time the inventor became famous
he was a telegraph operator In a railway
station. Hays was the editor of the Sleepy
Eye (Minn.) Dispatch. .'Probably not more
than a dozen people In the town knew the
inventor, but inside of a month he was
known to everyone and was elected mayor
by acclamation because of the fame that
he had given Sleepy Eye. The residents
had to open their private homes t5 accom
modate the throng of scientists and news
paper reporters, who poured into the little
place.
Sleepy Eye papers were singing the In
ventor's praise dally and the young in
ventor was reciprocating by offering the
aspiring city thousands of acres of land
for park purposes with at least a million
In cash to improve the property. Sleepy
Eye .Is still waiting for the immense park.
"It was easy work," said Mr. Hays, who
Is In Chicago on business connected with
his flour mills and a new railroad in Wis
consin in which he Is Interested. "It is
so easy to fool even scientific people that
one cannot but be astonished. There waa
nothing but fake to the engine, and yet
we could have sold out for more than
11,000,000 at one time. And I could go in
and do the same thing right over again
today in spite of the warning of the past
"I believed in the man, especially as he
had a United Stales patent. It appears
that a clerk In the patent office made a
serious mistake in his papers and really
gave government Indorsement of the In
vention. That was what fooled the scien
tists. The operator would never permit
anyone to see his Invention and refused to
discuss It vlth anyone. 1 I was his man
ager and he referred all questioners to
me. He declared that the German gov
ernment had purchased the rights for
$17,000,000 and showed telegrams to the
effect that advance payments amounting
to tiOOO.OOO were on the way.
"It was the failure of thla money to ar
rive that caused the exposure of the fake.
Of course, he might have had an invention
of ordinary merit, but that was all.
Sleepy Eye was full of scientists.
"In order to make as strong a showing
as possible ths new engine was placed In
a high chair and photographed in that po
sition. I first became suspicious when the
Inventor balked at allowing me to have a
small model. I wanted to have an engine
that I could wear as a watch charm, and
If what he said was true, it would have
been large enough then to run a sewing
machine." Chicago News.

In America now. F.ven today In the
smaller cities and vlllascs a timepiece In
the house Is a convenience and luxury
Indulged In by a few of the wealthy class.
Nature Is the clock of that land, a clock
which never stops or falls to serve Its
purpose. The crow of the rock la the
simplest, the sun the most dependable and
onvenlent and the cat's eye the most
difficult and to occidentals the moet hvimer
oirs of timepieces.
The cock crows regularly morning, fore
noon, noon, afternoon ana evening, ana
serves the purpose of the striking clock
of a belfry tower. Sometimes a cock crows
at Irregular periods. oWe unto him! for
superstition demenrts that his head be
chopped off a demand which Is compiled
ith without delay, for to tolerate an III
crowing cock is to bring bad luck so the
natives believe.
It needs little experience lo be able to
toll whether It be morning, noon, arter
noon or near evening by merely noting the
position of the-sun. The time Is more ac
curately told by Judging the shadows cast
bv the sun, which Is the mode most popular
with the shepherds In the fields.
Still another method, more accurate, is
the following: They hold their thumbs
touching each other horizontally, and ex
tend the forefingers up perpendicularly.
Then thev divide the thumb and fore
finger of each hand into six parts, nomi
nal hour points, one hand representing the
morning and the other the afternoon.
Where the thumbs Join being 12 o'clock,
the tip of one forefinger representing 8
o'clock In the morning and the tip of the
other 6 o'clock In the afternoon. By
holding the hands In the described posi
tion toward the sun the shadow cast
by one finger upon the other will point
to the correct time, as Judged by the
hours nominally marked in mind. The hour
divisions may be divided Into additional
parts, as the quarter hours.
To tell the time by the cat's eye sounds
at first humorous, but it can be done.
The average person perhaps is not aware
that the shape of the cat's eye undergoes
changes during the day. In the morning
the pupil is normally circular, but grad
ually it narrows until noon, when only
a narrow streak Is left. As the day
progresses it resumes Its normal shape,
becoming oval about 3 o'clock in the after
noon. In Turkey it Is common for the
old folks to call the cat to their sides in
order to ascertain the time.
As an Illustration of how accurately
time can be measured by the shadow cast
by the sun can "be cited a trial In the
courts of Omaha, Neb., held In the first
week of January, 1911, where a man was
acquitted of the charge of attempted
murder through the alibi established by
the shadow of a church steeple cast upon
a photograph, which contained the two
accusing witnesses, who had testified
seeing the man between 2 and t o'clock
In the afternoon while returning from
church, after the photograph waa taken.
But from the angle formed by the
shadow and the horizontal boards of the
church In the photograph Father PJgge,
astronomer at Crelghton university, cal
culated the time the photograph must
have been taken and testified that the
exact moment was during the afternoon
at S:21:29, one hour later than the wit
nesses had testified they met the prisoner,
