JOHNSON WHERE HE BELONGS FOR YEAR Chicago Judge"" Sentences Him to Term in Kansas Federal Prison.

USTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE! CHICAGO, Sept. It Jack Johnson, former heavy weight champion of the

world, today was re-sentenced to serve j one year in the federal penitentiary at ! lo rd Leavenworth, Kans.. and pay a line j of 51.000, by Judge George A. Carpenter j

in V. S. court. The sentence was the same as that pasted upon the negro pugilist five years ago for violation of the Mann act in transporting Bertha Schreiber. a white woman, from Pittsburgh to Chicago. ' "I wasn't given 5a fair chance; the judge was prejudiced." Johnson repeated over and over again after sentence had been passed. "When I first sentenced this "man," Judge Carpenter said, "I was aware that some would say a colored man would not have a fair chance in a case of this kind and I therefore gave him the lowest sentence possible consistent with the gravity of the crime. "Thi3 man has since shown all the way throughout and after hi3 trial, a complete disregard for our laws. If I made any mistake it is on the side of ivTtlency." Judge Carpenter said. Johnson was present when sentence was passed. His attorneys immediately declared they wished to enter another appeal. Judge Carpenter ruled against it, but granted a stay of execution until Saturday next to permit consultation of appeal court judges.

.MORE CLOTHES ROBBERIES

Gary police officials have not put a. stop to the numerous clothing store robberies, nor have they solved the t"Olution as Imagined. It became known outside of police information yesterday that thieves bat tered down tne door of the tailoring ehop a 23 W. 25th avenue some time last Saturday night stealing a large . number of suits end bolts of cloth valued at some JS00. An axe was used in breaking down th door to gain entrance to the build. ' lng. The scene of the recent store ' Tebberies which have netted a gang of tore thieves some $20,000 in stolen . merchandise has apparently shi:Ved: further south on Broadway, this timo operating as far south as 25th avenue after finding the downtown business district heavily guarded.

HELD ON ARSON CHARGE John Okomewski, the West Hammond grocer, who was arrested Friday following the f.re which was discovered in his store the night before, ij being held under $2,000 bond on the charge of arson with intent to defraud. The charge was lodged against the merchant following the investigation which was made by the rtate fire marshal of Illinois. Kere-one had been poured over the stock and fixtures of the store by the person who fired the place but lack of air prevented the spread of flames. Okoniewski will be given a preliminary hearing be fore Judge Kiwaii-ki. September 2J.

ATTACKED ANU HODDCU At the police stat'on Chopis told or coming from the New York Central depot and as he passed alley I at Eifth avenue, three men. two colored and one white, jumped out at him from

the cover of darkness of the alley and dragged him back inti the alley where they took over three hundrel dollars off his person and in his struggle with them, his throat was rut. On Chopis' person the police found a loaded revolver, a number of pair or dice, a dollar bill end a small amount of change. According to his friends he is a gambl.r although he carr-rn a working card at the America Sheet and Tin Plate Company. Ifc is believed that he had been gambling in Chicago and after he had made a winning was trailed to Gary by the three unknown highway men. The police do not regard his story very seriously. Chopis is not expected to live. Yesterday afternoon the police received a call from 1212 Washington street stating that a woman was holding a robber at bay at the point of a revolver. Upon dispatching an auto load of officers to the scene the police found Mrs. .Martino, owner of a store at the above address holding a thief. John Pumos, a Creek at bay at the' point of a gun. According to Mrs. Martino. while she went into a room in the rear of the store- Diamos entered the front door and robbed the cash register of $36. A neighbor woman saw the thief's action and ran to the 'rear of the store informing Mrs. Martino, who ran out asking the thief what he meant by taking the money. With that he. drew a gun and Mrs. Martino was lucky enough to take it away from him in the tussle and held him prisoner until the police arrived. Diamos was arrested and taken to the station where charges of grand larcenj was preferred against him.

The Yale teams train on beef and mutton. The Eskimo, the most peaceful of mankind, lives entirely on meat and oils. The most powerful of all the animals the lion, tiger and the leopard depend entirely upon meat for sustenance. It is nothing but a vagary to assume that meat is not essentia to the human body. But there is a difference in meats. Do you know that grain-fed stock produces a sweeter and more wholesomely nutritious meat than stock fed on sileage (slop)? Do you know that poor grades of meat disturb the Process of assimilation in the human system? e sell only the choicest government-inspected meat from the best grain-fed stock. Meat of this quality is easilly assimilated and produces the greatest amount of bodily heat and energy. There is a big difference in Independent meat and the interesting part of it is that the cost is no more than the other kinds.
