"No Obligations” “When we take office we will not be obliged to anyone for our elec tion,” Kern said. “However, one of the first purposes of the new mem bers will be to establish hearty cooperation between ourselves and the other board members. “Anything the present school board has In progress, which is for ward-looking and progressive in nature, will receive my support." Vonnegut said he would go into the office with an open mind and that the three new members will exercise independent Judgment in deciding qoestions. Opposes Sale “I oppose the sale of valuable real estate, /such as the old Shortridge High School site,” he said. "I be lieve lon/* time leases should be taken, but am not in favor of the outright sale of any good piece of property owned by the board.” Mrs. Sedwick said she was in sympathy with the school building program and hoped to aid in con tinuing it along resonable lines. She urged the erection of the proper type of schools to give the children better housing conditions. She is in favor of following the policy of “a better moral ed ucation.” The new commissioners may at tend the meetings of the board be tween now and Jan. I, they said.

Blazer, with the announce ment of the prosecution that the 60- year-old country doctor’s only living daughter will be summoned to tes tify against him.

Defense Waives Opening Statement, Introducing Indianapolis Doctor to Battle State’s Charge Madge Ober holtzer Was Murdered. WITNESS TAKES STAND AFTER ACQUITTAL PLEA IS OVERRULED Dr. Smiley Testifies Girl Was Beyond All Medical Aid if She Kept Secret for Six Hours Fact She Had Taken Poison. By John L. Niblack and William L. Toms Times Staff Correspondents CIRCUIT COURTROOM, NOBLESVILLE, Ind., Nov. 5. Attorneys defending D. C. Stephenson, Earl Klinck and Earl Gentry, on trial here, spent the morning developing the theory that Madge Oberholtzer, 28, of Irvington, committed suicide in stead of being murdered by their clients, as the State charges. The State rested its case late Wednesday. The defense opened this morning with motions asking Judge Will M. Sparks to instruct the jury to find the defendants not guilty. The mo tions being promptly overruled, the defense waived its open ing statement and began immediate introduction of testimony Dr. Orvall Smiley, 148 W. Thirty-Fifth St., Indianapolis, the only witness during the morning session, testified that in his opinion, a woman who took forty-five grains of bichloride of mercury on an empty stomach, and kept it a secret for six hours, was beyond all aid of medical science, no matter what was done later for her. “Now doctor," said Eph Inman, chief defense attorney, “keeping in mind, the history of the case I have assumed, (Inman had read a hypothetical question based on the dying statement of Miss Ober holtzer) after concealment of the fact that she had taken poison for six hours or more, In your judge ment would medical aid have saved her life?” "After six hours had elapsed a lethal quantity would have been ab sorbed and the patient would have been beyond aid of medical science." Inman then referred to the fact that Stephenson, according to the dying statement, as soon as lie be came aware that Madge had taken poison, forced her to drink milk. "Is milk a recognized antidote for bichloride of mercury. "Yes." "Is pouring a quantity of milk In to the stomach the proper thing to do?" "Yes." "But after six hours had elapsed, could even that have saved her life?” asked the veteran attorney leaning forward In his chair. “No, sir," replied the doctor, em phatically. New Angle Inman then turned to another angle of the case, namely, the State’s contention that Miss Oberholtzer died from a germ Infection result ing from an Infected wound. “Is it possible to inject germs by blood transfusion, or catherizatlon?" "Yes', sir.” Faulty technique in oatheriza tion (drawing samples from the bladder by an instrument) might inflame the tubes connected with the kidneys, or even result in genus getting into the kidneys, the doctor said in a series of an swers. Dr. Smiley was recalled for ad ditional examination by the State when court reconvened at 1 p. m. for the afternoon session. Dr. Virgil H. Moon, pathologist, who appeared as State’s witness, sat at the Stato table and assisted the prosecution in cross examination. Deputy Sheriffs Kossell, Clar and William Anderson, of Indianapolis, were In court as witnesses for Kllnck. Klinck was a deputy for Sheriff Omer Hawkins until his arrest. Cross-Examination Attorney Charles E. Cox, assist ing the State, subjected Dr. Smiley to some ingenious cross questioning, but failed to confuse the witness very much. "Do you know any of the defend ants?" asked Cox. "I’ve seen Mr. Stephenson a few times." “Have you ever been In his house?” "Why, ye es,” replied the doctor slowly. "Whom did you treat there?” "I don’t remember now. It was eighteen months ago." “Did you ever treat Shorty, (Ste phenson’s chauffeur). Klinck, Gentry or Stephenson out there?" “No, sir." “Did you ever prescribe for Mr. Stephenson?" “Yes, sir, four or five times.” “How many cases of bichloride of mercury poisoning have you had yourself?" "About thirty.” The doctor said that most of the cases were those of persons who had taken the poison by mouth. Fatality Percentage "How many of yoifr thirty cases got well?" “1 non’f mw Os tH* Forecast GENERALLY fair and colder tonight and Friday with temperature near freezing Fri day morning. TWO CENTS mouth cases, less than 10 per cent." “How many took the poison by mouth?" "At least twenty." "Only two or three of them got well? Do you know of the record of a Cincinnati hospital where out of 131 cases only 6 per cent died?" "Yes; but most of them took the poison on a full stomach." “Who employed you In this case?" "Mr. Inman." The witness said that Mr. In man had not told him what to say. He said he did not know who recom mended him to Inman. "You had nothing to do with the Madge Oberholtzer case at the au topsy?” "No, sir." In answer to another question the witness SaJd; "On an empty stomach Imme diate vomiting would leave a fatal, or lethal, dose sticking on (lie walls of the stomach, absolutely.” "Why. doctor, don't you know that there have been recoveries after forty or 800 grains of bichloride of mercury have been swallowed?" Full Stomachs "Yes, sir, I know that; but their stomach was full," Insisted the wit ness. Inman In previous questioning had brought out the alleged fact that Miss Oberholtzer had taken the poison on an empt) stomach. "How do you know their stomachs was full,” queried Cox laying down his papers and looking at the wit ness. "Prom my own experience, and I read It.” "Where did you read It?" The witness then rapidly detailed a long list of medical authorities. “You have read most of those in the last few weeks, haven't you?" “I’ve read some of them in the last few weeks.” The doctor said the time of death after taking bichloride of mercury Is from thirty minutes to forty-one days. Sixty one per cent of such patients die before eleven days, hm said. "Now doctor, what Is the longest reported interval In recognized medi cal literature, between taking the poison and death?" Kane Objects "Blair, a great English authority Ralph Kane State’s attorney, ob jected that the witness was not answering the question, and wanted Blair’s name struck from the record, to which Judge Sparks assented. "Forty-one days,” bawled the witness, irritated at what he thought was unwarranted inter ference with his testimony, “I wish you would Just describe what Blair says," Instructed Cox. “Now, Your Honor, we object,” said Floyd Christian, defense attor ney. "Blair’s name hns been struck from the record. It Is a fact that Blair Is neither In nor out." The judge sustained the objection, and so Cox could not question the doctor on Blair's article, until he laid the foundation himself. Ten Minutes Lost “Blair says that forty-one days such patients can live," said the wit ness finally, after ten mtfiutes were lost In the objections, and counter objections. "If a person swallowed the poison as tablets, what effect would they have?" asked Cox. "Followed by watei"?” Inquired the doctor.

THURSDAY, NOV. 5,1925 Colonial Will Present Phantom of the Opera’ in ‘‘The Phantom of the Opera,” Universal’s produc tion of Gaston Le Roux’s novel, which opens at the Colonial Sunday, represents a ‘‘Chamber of Mystery” devised by the Phantom, in vyhich his victims are placed and subjected to ingenious tortures. The construction of this setting presented many new problems in photography, and anew type of cam era had to be devised, as well as unusual methods of lighting and staging. The chamber consists of a large room in hexagonal shape, the walls of which are heavy mirrors. By a series of multiple reflections, the room may be made to appear, to those inside it, an African jungle filled with ferocious beasts, a pleas ant forest filled with shade trees, or any other kind of landscape. In the picture the phantom has captured the young hero, and the Persian. They are placed in the Chamber of Mystery, which is then made to seem an interminable Afri can forest. For these scenes five lions, three tigers and several elephants, hy enas and other animals had to be specially trained. Terrific heat comes from yie ceil ing of the room until the prisoners In Big Movie V Ml John Gilbert Co-starred with John Gilbert in Eric Von Stroheim’s production, “The Merry Widow,” screened from the romantic comic opera. Mae Mur ray has the role of the Irish-Ameri can dancer, who, wooed and won by the impetuous Prince Danilo, be comes queen of the little European country of Monteblanco. Gilbert is, of course, the dashing Prince. The picture will be next week’s attrac tion at the Apollo. Painful Rheumatic Swellings Disappear Discoverer Tells Druggist Not to Take a Cent of Anyone’s Money Unless AUenrbu Completely Banishes All Rheumatic Pains and Twinges. James H Allen of 26 Forbes St., Ro chester, N. Y., suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accu mulated impurities, commonly cnl'ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. With this idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and final ly compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery, which he called ALLENRIIU, to others who took It, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers every where know about his discovery through the newspapers. He has there fore instructed Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores, Hang Drug Company, Gold smith's Drug Stores and druggists everywhere to dispense ALLENRHIj with the understanding that if the first pint bottle does not show the way to complete recovery he jjdll gladly re turn your money without comment.— Advertisement.

The prisoners rush for the water, which immedi ately disappears. The Chamber of Mystery in the story is located flve stories below the Paris Opera House, on the shore of a vast subterranean lake. An exact replica of the opera house, in full size and detail, was built for this production, these sets being the largest ever made. Rupert Julian directed “The Phan tom of the Opera” and Lon Chaney stars in the role of the phantom. Many Philbin and Norman Kerry are the young lovers, and they are sup ported by a cast of 5,000 people. •I- -I- TWO FEATURE ACTS AT PALACE Captain Kidd and his bold men come to the Palace today with their picturesque song and dance fantasy which shares headline hoifors with “Willie’s Reception," a miniature musical comedy offering.
