    Fiv e Women Arc

Eleven Temporary Jurors in
Box At Clone of Second
4
Day General Interest
. Dwindling.
San Francisco, Nov. IS. The end
of the second day in the man-
daughter trial of Roscoe (Fatty)
ArbucVle law 11 temporary jurors
in the box and the general interest
in the jury selection dwindling. Five
ot those selected were women.
There was nothing in the sessions
to give them arty more interest than
the ordinary criminal action, al
though the frequent clashes of op
posing counsel occasioned inirtli or
sharpened curiosity on the part of
the spectators and court officers at
times.
J he questions did -not oilier ma
terially from those aked at the
opening of the trial yesttrday.
Arbucklc's attitude was of such
deep apparent dejection that he re
mained almost aloof. He did not
consult with counsel and at the re
cess periods remained by himself.
Many Vacant Seats.
There were vacant seats in the
court room throuRhout the day,' al
though the trowd in front of the
building to see the principals go to
a-id fro was larger than yesterday.
Many of the spectators in court
were talesmen who have not been
called to the box.
Attorneys said that there was a
possibility of the jurors being final
ly selected by tomorrow night.-,,
The activities of the women's vi
gilant committee, a moral uplift or
ganization, in watching the case and
sending representatives to the court
room, figured largely in the jury
oucstioning today as it did yester
day. The medical testimony to be
' introduced was also mentioned.
The talesmen were asked by the
defense if such testimony might be
connected by them in any way with
any possible moral lapse on the part
of Miss Virginia Rappe, in connec-
, tion with whose death Arbuckle is
being tried. Thev answered that
they would be guided solely by the
evidence; , ;' . . j
, Women Alt Housewives.
Indicated transgressions of .the
( prohibition laws by Arbuckle and
j Miss Rappe would have no effect
on the talesmcfi, they answered.
They said that the detention of wit-
' nesses by the district attorney would
not prejudice them either against
the prosecution or the witnesses in
volved. .
; The women in the box are all
; housewives and. some of them have
children, who, they said, enjoyed the
; Arbuckle motion pictures.
They are: Mrs. Anna Butler, Mrs.
: Helen M. Hubbard, Mrs. Kitty L.
MacDonald, Mrs. L, F. Sandcn and
Mrs. Edith Unsworth.

which makes the Boatman the largest
rural school in this part of the state.
So much of the St. Deroin district
has gone into the river that the uis

port a school. A plan to consolidate
with Boatman was advocated, but the
few pupils in the St. Deroin district
are perhaps five miles from the Boat

been made for their transportation
they are not in school this year.

Our policy has always been to pass on to the user of auto
mobile tires immediately any reduction in cost. We will not
deviate in the slightest from the high standard of workmanship
and material so necessary to maintain the remarkable service
given by Miller Tires.
Due to the readjustments in costs of materials, it is now
possible to make a reduction, which unquestionably makes
Millers the best buy in automobile tires.

business more bountiful, lower in
terest and lower freight ratri."
Mr. Jefferis said that Mr. Etch re
ceived his statement In a most sym
pathetic spirit and said the matter
would be submitted to the commis
sion. Mr. Etch speaking of the
rumors afloat that the railroads
would find objections to putting the
rates ordered on hay and grain in
effect November 20, intimated that
the commission could not act until
the time set for the railroads to go iito
operation but he had every reason
to believe that if the rates were not
put into effect on November 20, the
commission would act promptly
and issue an order making the rates
effective.
Incident to the conversation Com
missioner Esch said that an order re
cently issued by the Interstate Com
merce commissioners to the railroads
having resulted in a saving to the
shippers between $175,000,000 and
$200,000,000, and if the order by the
commission on October 20 is carried
out with reference to grain and
hay it will be an additional saving
to the shippers ot SJS.WU.uw.

Scientists now know that the real cuiise of

It is now generally acknowledged that the lack
of one food factor called vitamine is largely re

brings skin disorders and blemishes.
Something to correct the basic cause of these
complaints is clearly needed. Scientists have dis
