saying he had made no physical exami
nation here.
Witness was asked whether he
thought an Insane man could perform
the duties of Judge of a county court
His reply was that a man of high edu-
had undergone the experience outlined.
Dr. Emmons explained the effect of the
brain tissue of excessive drinking. In
his opinion "the act of Judge Loving
was the result of a diseased mind.”
"What effect will great stress have
on a mind diseased as this one has been
diseased to you?”
"It produces mental disorders.”
The witness stated that ten days ago
he made a physical examination of
Judge Loving at his office, which, he
stated. In a sense, corroborated his
opinion, based upon the hypothetical
question. Witness then explained how
cation could be Judge and still have
some mental defects.
Jury May Visit Scene.
At the conclusion of the testimony of
Dr. Emmons the defense rested, and
Mr. Lee presented a statement that
young Estes was unmarried; was 27
years of age, and weighed 115 pounds.
Mr. Bouldln, for the state, offered to
Introduce Mias Annie Kidd as their
witness In rebuttal to show that Miss
Loving's account of what had taken
place after the buggy ride was Incor
rect. The defense objected to the In
troduction of this evidence, and the
jury retired while the admissibility of
Miss Kidd's evidence was argued.
It Is expected* the attorneys for the
prosecution will petition the court to
order the Jury to Nelson court In order
that a drive may be taken over the
roads traveled by Miss Loving and
young Estes.

LANGLEY’S BROTHER
GIVES LUNACY PLEA
Says Young Attorney Is Not
Responsible for His
Actions.
The trial of Lee J. Langley, the
young lawyer accused of attempted as
sault, was postponed Thursday by Jus
tice of the Peace Dodgen until Tuesday
morning at 10 o’clock.
The continuance was granted on ap
plication of the defense, on the ground
that Langley, who Is held In the Tower,
Is In a bad condition physically and
unable to undergo the ordeal of atrial
at present. Pending the preliminary
hearing, the lawyer will remain In
Tower.
W. P. Mims, of 868 East Hunter
street, father of the 18-year-old girl
whom Langley Is alleged to have
tacked, denies the published report
that he and his wife Intend to with
draw the warrant against Langley.
In explaining this matter, Mr. Mims
said to a Georgian reporter Thursday
"The report that I intend to with
draw the warrant Is a mistake. I
tend to prosecute the case. My wife
did write a note to Judge Dodgen In
regard to the case, but It was different
from what has been published. Lang
ley's brother came to see me and asked
mo to drop the case, agreeing, if
would do so, to swear out a writ
lunacy and have Lee Langley sent „
the insane asylum, assuring me he was
not responsible. On this condition,
agreed to the proposition. I was i_.
work at the time and sent my wife
word to write a note to this effect to
Judge Dodgen. But I have never said
I made a mistake ip having the war
rant sworn out against Langley. I have,
now decided to allow the courts to do
termtne the disposition ot the case."
Complexion Helps
For the Out-Door Girl
Some Remedies You Must Know.
It would be the height of recklessness to go in for the outdoor life and the en
joyment of sports without knowing something about simple remedies against the
effects of exposure to sun and wind. Andwhat is much ir re to the point, to under
stand how to apply the ounce of prevention that is worth >veral pounds of cure. The
thing to know is how to protect the skin in a sensible and satisfactory way and then
not to worry about it or even think about it until the end of the day or the outing.
After that a few minutes’ thought and care will counteract any very serious damages
and keep the skin smooth and free from blemishes without obliterating the much
prized tone it acquires from constant living outdoors.
