TRIAL OF SENATOR TO OPEN THURS. GREAT FALLS, Mont., April 13.—Great Falls today began to stir with interest in the approaching trial of Senator Burton K. Wheeler, which opens in federal court today. Forty witnesses have been summoned by the government in an effort to prove charge that Senator Wheeler accepted fees for appearing before the Department of Interior as attorney after he became senator. Interest is centered in the question whether Georg B. Lockwood, former secretary of the Republican National committee and Blair Coan, his employee, will be called to testify. It was Coan who visited in Great Falls and Butte in March, 1924, investigating the Wheeler case prior to the juition Montana Senators' indictment. According to his own statements, Coan was working under the direction of the Republican organization, reporting to Lockwood. It was generally known he was sent here to "get something on Wheeler." Sufficient information leaked out of the United States district attorney's office here to cause rumors that these men would not be placed on the stand by the government, altho the season was not fully obvious. When U. S. Dist. Atty. John L. Slattery was asked about the rumors his only reply was: "I have nothing at all to say on that stuff." Lockwod and Coan have here-tofore been considered strong witnesses for the government. It is also believed that the government's cases has been weakened by the death several months ago of William W. Shea, Montana oil expert, whose testimony before the grand jury was said to have been an im.

CUTS THROAT OF HIS SWEETHEART LONDON, April 13.—A dramatic confession made by Ernest Rhodes, a youthful German vaiet, who told how he cut the throat of pretty young Grace Diane Blakaller as she tried to kiss him good-night near her mother's home Thursday was read in police court here today. The valet's story apparently clears up the mystery of the death of the child actress and dancer which at first seemed to have international complications and threatened to become a nationwide sensation. "I did it because she was always teasing me," the German, who is 18 and employed by P. Dallas Cairns, the film actor, said in his confession. Rhodes suggered Saturday afternoon after Scotland Yard had searched for two days for the girl's murderer. "Gracie laughed in my face and said 'You poor fool' when I asked to see her on Easter." "We were kissing good night, a short distance from her mother's home. I pulled a razor from my pocket and cut her throat. "She cried out 'I meant to tell you I loved you.' Then she tried to kiss me again. I pushed her away and she saw the blood. She screamed and I walked away." The girl dragged herself to the doorstep of her mother's home and died later in a hospital. Rhodes was persuaded to go to the police through a statement he made to his employer. RULING TODAY IN "BABY FARM" CASE LOS ANGELES, April 13.—A ruling was to be made by Justice W. S.

She contends the money she received was to cover maternity expenses, and denies she violated the state anti-slavery code, as alleged. The child's mother is a 14-year-old high school girl.

LOS ANGELES—Police started an investigation of mysterious case of Mrs. McDaniels, who became violl after sniffing a bouqu Easter flowers left on her step. SOMEBODY has wisely said that a man is known by the company he keeps; but a wiser sage now contends that a man is known by the glasses he wears. Henceforth the discriminating person must not only choose his company; he must choose also a style of glasses which conforms with the rest of his attire. The well-dressed man or woman of 1925 is more than ever under the domination of our old friend, Dame Fashion. For this year the dictator of our fads and fancies is adding to her group of vassals the eye-glass wearing public. She is issuing this spring, a strict eye-glass decree. Let no well-dressed man wear his business glasses to a banquet! Let no woman who strives to be correct appear at a ball adorned with her sports spectacles! And neither should appear at the office or attempt a shopping expedition attired in the same glasses that are proper for evening functions! Just as the man or woman of affairs changes the shoes or the suit or the gown three or four times in an active day, so must he or she give the same careful attention to the appearance of the eyes. One pair of glasses is no longer enough. Until the new edict went forth it had been sufficient, so far as appearance went, that one be fitted with lenses which made the eyes appear at ease; the mounting was considered only a means of holding the lenses in the correct position. No one had cared if Mr. Well-Dressed attended a formal evening occasion in the same glasses that he wore at morning business or afternoon golf, or if Mrs. Well-Dressed appeared wearing them at morning shopping or afternoon tea. It just didn't matter. But today, Dame Fashion steps in to tell us that it does matter. One style of glasses is no longer proper for all occasions, she says. As she has so often done in other matters of personal appearance, she has called in her cohorts, made a study of existing types of glasses and issued a decree standardizing the use of them. Her intention is not to create new styles, but rather to classify present ones and assign them to their proper places. Styles in glasses do not change with the seasons—instead they change with the occasion. For evening and formal wear the rimless nose glass is the thing for the woman of fashion. For shopping or the theatre, where only temporary assistance to the vision is required, the oxford or lorguettes are proper. Neither of these, however, is suitable for sports, tennis; on such occasion woman who would be correct have substantial metal or frames. Shell-rimmed spectacles light weight metal bridge and plies are dictated for office use the particular business man business woman. They afford necessary serviceability and concentration on what one is instead of what one is wearing. For informal house use a surely reading the man of should adopt light weight frames. They offer the rest sought at this time of the formal evening dress that type of eye-glass is just important as the correct shoe correct collar, Dame Fashion tends. At this time, the groomed man dons the style of nose glass—those long spring attached rims at the center of the black ribbon completes the large round lenses set in sturdy frames are prescribable industrial worker. In duty hours he changes to the of glasses used by the man. Fashion also says that ged spectacle should be the growing child, to with hard use of play hours.

Two major issues were brought before the U.S. supreme court today for argument—the right of the president to remove from office his own or his predecessor's appointees, and the right of newspapers to print income-tax returns made public by the last revenue law. Decision probably will be handed down in June. The case involving the presidential power was brought by Frank S. Myers, who was removed as postmaster of Portland, Ore., by President Wilson in 1920. Myers, suing for back pay, appealed to the court on the ground that his removal was illegal because the senate which confire his appointment was not consulted.

April 13—The Federal government won millions of dollars in contested potential income tax suits today when the U.S. Supreme Court in two cases upheld the treasury department's contention that "actual loss" on property owned previous to 1913 and sold since then must be used in calculating income tax reductions. Many thousands of tax payers and the appeals courts decision reversed by the high tribunal today, held that the fair market value of the property on March 1, 1913, was the figure required by the law itself for use in computing loss on property owned then and wold since. The treasury department maintained the "actual loss" is the basis for deductions. WASHINGTON—"Labor and attachment costs" owed by a bankrupt do not have priority over taxes he owes, the U.S. Supreme court ruled today in a California case. Modern German version: "Go East, young man; France is on the other side." If all would follow their natural bent, few would get bent from labor.
