'The defense was that the fire was an accident. Barney was placed on the stand in has own behalf .and stolidly maintained that the fire was caused by the lamp exploding. The only time tm the whole trial that his demeanor changed was when he told the cir- cumstances of the fire and his wife's agonized cries. Then for a moment lie broke" down and wept. In brief, Baraey testified that he filled the lamp, that was customarily left burn- ing in has wife's room on account of the baby, at about midnight and light- ed it in the kitchen, took it back to the evening. At other times they will attend the regular conference sessions. that he took the clothes his wife had worn out in the yard and burned them.

He admitted on cross examination having had trouble with her previous to moving to Ft. Covington over money matters and the religious training of the chil- dren. Barney said he was «.t home with his family on the evening pre- vious to the fire, had played with the children, played checkers with his wife and they had (had no troufole. Dr. MacArtney. who had been pre- viously sworn for the people s&id that on the door leading- to the sitting room he found spatters of blood and 1 casing, bloodspots the bedroom and placed it on the trunk near her bed. There was an alarm clock/on the trunk, a cup of milk for ! tfee baby and several on tie matches. Oa the fatal morning he on t^e floor between the door and bed, said he arose shortly after adx, shook down the stove of the living' room, shut the bedroom door to warm the living room where his wife usually dressed and went into the kitchen to Tight the oil stove. 1 Then hejheard a ; noise, .his wife screa: cry. He rushed to the room, the 4°°^ a-nd found the bed and "his wife's niriu clothes all aflame. His .wife was trying- to get out of bed; he tried to mtt out the fire with a towel; she fill and tried to get up and mn toward tke kitchen. At first she rushed abojtf the bedroom screaming, to the outside of the building also are contemplated. "The amount proposed to be raised is only sufficient to liquidate our debts and to (make the needed repairs. It highly desiratole that if the generous people of the community feel able to do so, this fund should be oversub- scribed to provide a balance which will forestall our going to the people for assistance again in a few years. It is the hope of the Board of Directors that as time goes on and as tihe people are persuaded that the hospital meets the needs of the com- munity, the endowment fund will be steadily increased by gifts and be- quests, until its endowment income is lufficient to meet the deficit incurred each year through operation. The present endowment consists of $26,- 975 in real estate mortgages, $7,000 in bonds and .about $50,000 in the C. J. Lawrence estate trust fund, a total of about $84,000. If this endowment were doubled I believe We would never again have to ask the public for a dollar. "However, i to pay our debts and make the neces- sary repairs. Surely I do not need to point out the value of the hospital to the community. It would mean a calamity and a reflection to halve the hospital closed, and yet we cannot continue without help. Jt. is a crucial time in the life of «he inetltation I ana confident that the people of Ma- lone will rally to our aid."

Prof. Harris, of St. Dawrence University testified for the defense that the lamp by tipping over mig'ht have started the fire and that the outing flannel nig^ii gown woa-n by Mrs. Barney mighi have become ignited. A statement made to Dr. MacArt- ney by Mrs. Barney before her death, offered by the defense, was at first ruled out by the court on the objec- tion of District Attorney Main because not properly made as a dying declara- tion. Later in the case the district attorney withdrew his objection as a public duty, inassmush as tihe matter was one wlien man's life was in Jeopardy, and the statement was ad- mitted.

The stage action, dancing 1 and evolutions, coacht-d by Miss Perham,- physical, director, wtjro also all to the good, the children ihowing all the abandon of the btsst amateur grown-ups. Mrs. Hoy and the High School orchestra accompa- nied the production superbly, and the result was, an entertainment of unua- .1 merit, smoothly rendered, com- plete and delightful, which showed tnusual musical and histrionic talent, irith the best of training, in our schools. No set of grown-ups could have beaten the young boys m tho baseball song, emphasized b> th© rythm of their ball clubs. The acting was so natural that waves_o! laughter swept the audience and the choruses were greeted with continuous ap- plause. The principals in the operetta were Helen Murtagh, the mother, Howard Lawrence, the son and leader of £he gang of boys, Eva Whitney, Treida Uohetr and Bertha Borssuck, All were fine in their parts and as en- thusiastic as veterans. The songs ia which the last three featured were charming. Bertha Borssuck, m her doll song, sang very sweetly, and her parasol dance was graceful. All three have exquisite voices. The butterfly dance between acts, given by Attc« Donovan and Ruth Reynolds, was oria of th3 prettiest things of the kind ev- er seen on a Malone stage, Befot and after the show the High Schoi orchestra furnished better music tha many of the orchestras brought hei \ from away for public social furn tions. It consisted of violin, tvt saxaphones, cornet, banjo, piano and drums. During the play instru- ments were- shifted and there were four violins, horn, saxaphone, etc. Th» whole was a program reflecting tha utmost credit on our schools. Ma-, and Mrs. Earl Dean will take in the Washington excursion Friday and spend their Easter vacation in^ the Capital City. "Tt is said that the validity of the re- cent election in Brushton, at which it s voted to incorporate as a village is being questioned by some, because some ballots were provided by the town clerk and read "For Incorpora- tion" and "Against Incorporation 1 with a square rfor voters' cross mark in front of each, while ot&er ballots provided by interests favoring the pro- ject read simply "For Incorporation," without the alternative or any square. The law provides a very simple way of voting on the question of incorpor- •ation and it is possible that both forms may be all right. At any rate the pa- pers of incorporation have been for- warded to Albany. Some say that the question of a water system is involv- ed; others the building of a new $1SO,000 school building. As the lat- ter would !>e purely a school district matter we fail to see how incorpora- tion would affect it one way or the other. Coroner Nickelson held an inquest shot in the head in a drunken brawl on the Porter road. The inquest was private, nobody being present but tho coroner, district attorney and wit- nesses. The evidence was aM present- ed that day^and. the coroner reserved decision* till Thursday. JLawpeaee Clickner, of Watertown, has been held in jail for the shooting ever since he was ffound hiding at Neff' a house on Cedar street. If the coroner finds that a crime was committed and Clickner is held responsible a warrant for his arrest will be issued- The au- topsy on Hartman's body was made by Drs. White and Rust, who found that the bullet was the cause of Hart- man's death. It is expected that Clickner will be held for some degree of manslaughter. At the Mothers* Meeting at the W. C. T. U. rooms Friday afternoon Mrs. Herbert H. Reynolds gave a very interesting and instructive talk on '"Bringing Up Boys," in which she emphasized the importance of thor- ough knowledge of parents of the leader or leaders of bands of children with which their boys associate. The play life of the child makes a deep impression on the character. She. referred to a paroled convict who at- trlbuted his downfall to the influe&c* of boy friends, especially the leader of his play gang. Good reading in the home was also emphasized, with books that will give constructive ideas to children. Just praise is an element which should not be omitted by par- ents in developing character. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds is a ;real club for boys and young men and those are fortunate who belong. Dif* ferent groups meet there evenings for study and the attic ia fitted with * basketball outfit, radio set and other things which interest youth.

"The" Investment ofat

people's witnesses brought out a longchain of circtiatnstances against Bar-ney, though nothing direct about howthe fire started which caused Mrs.Barney's death from burns and shock.

'The defense was that the fire was anaccident. Barney was placed on thestand in has own behalf .and stolidlymaintained that the fire was caused bythe lamp exploding. The only timetm the whole trial that his demeanorchanged was when he told the cir-cumstances of the fire and his wife'sagonized cries. Then for a momentlie broke" down and wept. In brief,Baraey testified that he filled thelamp, that was customarily left burn-ing in has wife's room on account ofthe baby, at about midnight and light-ed it in the kitchen, took it back to

the evening. At other times they willattend the regular conference sessions.

that he took the clothes his wife hadworn out in the yard and burnedthem. He took the stick <*f wood outthat had been ln.£he kitchen. Barneydenied he had Before the fire throwna hand glass at his wife. He admittedon cross examination having hadtrouble with her previous to movingto Ft. Covington over money mattersand the religious training of the chil-dren. Barney said he was «.t homewith his family on the evening pre-vious to the fire, had played with thechildren, played checkers with hiswife and they had (had no troufole.

Oa the fatal morning he o n t^e floor between the door and bed,said he arose shortly after adx, shookdown the stove of the living' room,shut the bedroom door to warm theliving room where his wife usuallydressed and went into the kitchen toTight the oil stove.1 Then hejheard a

the 4°°^ a-nd found the bedand "his wife's niriu clothes all aflame.His .wife was trying- to get out of bed;he tried to mtt out the fire with atowel; she fill and tried to get up andmn toward tke kitchen. At first sherushed abojtf the bedroom screaming,

"The amount proposed to be raisedis only sufficient to liquidate our debtsand to (make the needed repairs. It i»highly desiratole that if the generouspeople of the community feel able todo so, this fund should be oversub-scribed to provide a balance whichwill forestall our going to the peoplefor assistance again in a few years.

I t is the hope of the Board ofDirectors that as time goes on and astihe people are persuaded that thehospital meets the needs of the com-munity, the endowment fund will besteadily increased by gifts and be-quests, until its endowment income islufficient to meet the deficit incurred

each year through operation. Thepresent endowment consists of $26,-975 in real estate mortgages, $7,000in bonds and .about $50,000 in the C.J. Lawrence estate trust fund, a totalof about $84,000. If this endowmentwere doubled I believe We would neveragain have to ask the public for adollar.

"However, ito pay our debts and make the neces-sary repairs. Surely I do not need topoint out the value of the hospital tothe community. It would mean acalamity and a reflection to halve thehospital closed, and yet we cannotcontinue without help. Jt. is a crucialtime in the life of «he inetltationI ana confident that the people of Ma-lone will rally to our aid."

Prof.Harris, of St. Dawrence Universitytestified for the defense that the lampby tipping over mig'ht have started thefire and that the outing flannel nig iigown woa-n by Mrs. Barney mighihave become ignited.

Later in the case the districtattorney withdrew his objection as apublic duty, inassmush as tihe matterwas one wlien man's life was inJeopardy, and the statement was ad-mitted.

schools. No set of grown-ups couldhave beaten the young boys m thobaseball song, emphasized b> th©rythm of their ball clubs. The actingwas so natural that waves_o! laughterswept the audience and the choruseswere greeted with continuous ap-plause.

The principals in the operettawere Helen Murtagh, the mother,Howard Lawrence, the son and leaderof £he gang of boys, Eva Whitney,Treida Uohetr and Bertha Borssuck,All were fine in their parts and as en-thusiastic as veterans. The songs iawhich the last three featured werecharming. Bertha Borssuck, m herdoll song, sang very sweetly, and herparasol dance was graceful. All threehave exquisite voices. The butterflydance between acts, given by Attc«Donovan and Ruth Reynolds, was oriaof th3 prettiest things of the kind ev-er seen on a Malone stage, Befotand after the show the High Schoiorchestra furnished better music thamany of the orchestras brought hei \from away for public social furntions. It consisted of violin, tvtsaxaphones, cornet, banjo, piano anddrums. During the play instru-ments were- shifted and there werefour violins, horn, saxaphone, etc. Th»whole was a program reflecting thautmost credit on our schools.

"Tt is said that the validity of the re-cent election in Brushton, at which it

s voted to incorporate as a villageis being questioned by some, becausesome ballots were provided by thetown clerk and read "For Incorpora-tion" and "Against Incorporation1

with a square rfor voters' cross markin front of each, while ot&er ballotsprovided by interests favoring the pro-ject read simply "For Incorporation,"without the alternative or any square.The law provides a very simple wayof voting on the question of incorpor-•ation and it is possible that both formsmay be all right. At any rate the pa-pers of incorporation have been for-warded to Albany. Some say that thequestion of a water system is involv-ed; others the building of a new$1SO,000 school building. As the lat-ter would !>e purely a school districtmatter we fail to see how incorpora-tion would affect it one way or theother.
