Is Still Livlng-'-One Man Says That '05 Per Cent, of the People of. the County Believe the Woman is Still Alive Lamphere Appeared Ex tremely Nervous As He Entered tlie '' ' Court-room; '- i By Leased Wire to The Times) ':. Laporte, Jnd., Noy. 9 The court room was crowded today when the case of Ray Lamphere, on trial for y the murder of Mrs. Belle Gunness and her three children, began.-, Lamphere appeared extremely nervous as he 1 walked to a seat behind his attorney, ; William H. Worden. Lamphere made n : exaggerated bow to Prosecuting Attorney Smith as he took his seat. A clash occurred between the state and defense. Henry Mill, retired farmer of Central township, was the first' to be examined. He was ques tioned by -Attorney Smith as ...to whether -or. not he had read about the base, whether he had been influ enced in his opinions by the reading, and . lastly, whether he had been led to form an opinion as to whether Mrs. Gunness was alive or. dead. . In an Instant Attorney Worden was, on. his feet. - "That is an improper question, youf honor," he shouted. . "The pros ecuting attorney has no . right to. ask this Juror anything as to' whether he has, formed an opinion on the guilt or -innocence of . the accused. ;- Attorney Smith argued that the po-' sltlon of the defense was absurd. "The first' thing we have to prove here; your honor," he said, "is the fact that someone is dead. I con tend that the matter of whether Mrs. Gunness is living or dead is one that I have a perfect right to go into." -The court ruled the question ad .raisslble, and the first clash In the -famous case subsided. . , The first move after court opened was', the exclusion.' of all witnesses from the court-room and here the de- fense scored a point when on the mo tion of the prosecutor all witnesses were ordered excludwl from the trial, Attorney Smith read the list of stale's witnesses and they were sworn.. When the witnesses for the defense were called for Attorney Worden paralyzed the attorneys for the prosecution by declaring that he had not yet subpoenaed a single wit ness and that he did not yet know what witnesses would be called. He was therefore unable to exclude . them. -. The 12 men in the box constitut ing, the regular panel when the ca3e was opened, were: Charles Schlaack. Frederick G. Hupp, William C, Kelling, G. B. Ru pet, C. E. Herrold, Harry Bennltt, Louis G. Paul, L. B. Colllngs, Henry The Remarkable Will Of A Doctor He Leaves tlie (ferret of Life to His Children And the World. One of the world's greatest physi- clans upon hit; death bed called his children about him and said: "When-1 die I will leave the neon of life as I have discovered It In my practice." . When they read his will it directed them to a safety vault which contained a. large envelope marked thus: "The Secret of Llfer Upon opening It they rend: "Don't abuse the stomach." This profound thinker after a long life of medicine knew the stomach to be the throne of man. Btuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will help you make a. stomach healthy.

It is considered "unlikely that more than one or two jurors at the most will be obtained today. The difficulty of the task confront ed, in securing' a jury was made ap parent in the first two hours of Inter rogation, the result being that six men were excused because they be lieved Mrs. Gunness to be alive and were obviously unfit to try Lamph ere for his life on a charge of having murdered her Joseph Maxson. who assisted In digging one of the holes in which bod ies were found, said 95 per cent, of the people of Laporte county believe that Mrs. Gunness is still alive. ..; The ' attorneys interested declare it would not be surprising if the case had to be tried outside of La porte county.
