Police officers on night duty had observed the wreaths In the early morning, and Janitors at both the court house aud the Dispatch office got a perfect glimpse of the de4orationu at their establishments wken they arrived to sweep and start fires. Between that time and the time others In the two buildings came In for work the wreaths and the legends attached to them had disappeared almost as mysteriously as they had been pinned to the doors. No one was found who removed them, but they were gone. There were some who saw a connection between the wreaths and the legends they bore and the acquittal of Mrs. Ruby Wilder UUingtqn In superior court Thurs day afternoon after being cn trial a week charged with first degree murder for -the kltOun of her bus oand, Hartwatl Elllhgton, three months ago. The court house Is known everywhere as the temple of Jus tice. but Dally Dispatch folks wondered what connection tiiey might have with the case in ques tion.
