I I PREFERS THE JAIL'S QUIET ’ i Junes Must Have Been a Newspaper Reporter. A Muncie dispatch to the Indianapolis News says: II "What would you do if you were sheriff and a prisoner became so , enamored of his lodgings in the count ty jail that he would not leave? - Thomas Hiatt, sheriff of Delaware county, has a case of this kind in ' Jimmy Jones, vagrant. While seni ing a sentence imposed several wr'k-j ago for vagrancy, Jones became so I pleased with the life that when his j term ended and he was put out he re-' , fused to leave. He begged to be taken ' back and the sheriff preferred another vagrancy charge against him in "selfdefense.’* Jones, fined again in the court of I Timothy Owen, a justice of the peace I is now happy situated in the jail and | his only worry is as to how he can' ■ arrange to make the place his pern- ( anent home. Jones says domestic ■ j trouble drove him to love the jail life! “ ‘lt’s quiet in there and a fellow is I well treated.' he commented. ‘Noj cares, no worries about got'ing some i thing to eat, clothes to wea or a piece I to sleep—everything provided for. I j don't see why the jail doesn't en jov \ greater popularity as a retreat by ' those weary of society.' ” COMING SOON Word has been received that Hor> ace Bryan, son of Prof, and Mrs. J 1 H. Bryan of Marion. Ind, formerly living at Linn Grove, will sail for the United States some time thia month. Horace has been in the service inee 1 December. 1917. and has spent al- I I most a year in France.
