REALISTIC II1FERII0 PAIIITEDJY JUDGE Life Imprisonment, According to Jurist, Is Worst of All Punishment. DEATH HORROR OUTDONE

SENTENCED MURDERER OF WOM- ... - ... FROM WHITE SLAVERY SEES PICTURE OF LIFE TORTURE. Chlcago, Oct. 13. Life Imprisonment In the penitentiary was declared by Judge Marcus Kavanagh to be a more terrible punishment than hang-' ing. The Juriut, in a remarkable opinion handed down In sentencing Joseph j Welcome to life Imprisonment formur-i der, contrasted death with the tortur-t ed soul of a life convict in his solitary cell and told the prisoner that it is not correct to regard the death penalty as ; the niOHt severe punishment that can j be inflicted. ! Welcome pleaded guilty to having ; murdered Mrs. Mary McLean, March' 22, 1910, In a boarding house she con-j ducted at 1144 West Monroe street. The prisoner changed his plea from ' "not guilty" after eight Jurors were chosen. It was shown that he forced his wife to become a "white slave" and shot her for refusing to give him money. Mrs. McLean was shot and killed while attempting to save Mrs. Welcome. Judge Pictures Penalty. In sentencing Welcome Judge Kavanagh said: . "Welcome, you committed a terrible crime. Your punishment Is to be more terrible still. "You compelled your own wife to make public commerce of her soul for your gain. When she sought to escape you shot her. It wasn't your fault she lived, and you. In fact, then killed another woman who was making her cleanly, useful way in the world. You could hardly get twelve men in the jury box who would not Inflict the death penalty upon you, yet it la the policy of the law to regard a plea of guilty aa In some measure of Itself a mitigation. "The instinctive unreasoning horror of mankind regards death as a severe punishment This idea is not correct You are now to receive a sterner punishment Your victim died but once. You will die a hundred times; you will suffer more the day you put on your prison clothes than she did In her death. After that there will be only the hopeless, painful years from day to day, from month to month, stretching out forever and in agony. ' Wiped From Humanity's Slate. ' "You will be wiped out of human knowledge; even your name will be taken from you; henceforth you will be known by a number. You will not be permitted to lift a hand or whisper a word; you will have no right except the right to mere existence. "In four or five years the eternal solitude and silence will begin to crush in upon you like an iron weight. You hear that street car bell ringing in the street as it passes now. You will remember it in after years as the most exquisite music It will mean hurrying crowds that go where they like and do as they please; it will mean the greatest of all pleasures freedom. "You can only dream of It by day and by night, and your dream will be torture unspeakable. In the summer yon will guess that there are cool rivers running somewhere under green trees, and you will long for the sight of even a green leaf with an aching you' never thought you could experience. Beyond the Pale of Happiness. "In a few weeks the holidays with their lights and festivities and happiness will be here, and many a Christmas will roll over you in your iron cage and high stone wall, but you will never hear a child laugh again. "You are so elated now at the thought of saving your life that you don't realize all this. I want you and the other here in the courtroom to understand it. You aren't sorry yet for your crime; you have only a great self pity. There will be few worse men than you in that great prison, but I may say, the law has taken its full and ample revenge upon 'ou."

- . i Here the most vigorous exponent of j th innin Hon! and nnrinpnt rf th i old order of things. Theodore Roose- i velt, was met by the evangel of the new doctrine. Albert J. Beveridge and welcomed to Indiana, the battleground between the old and the new. Around them were the close advisers, lieutenants, aides-de-camp, and field marshals of Insurgency. Dan ville was packed Wednesday night with insurgents. Every room and every bed in every hotel was filled with the advocates of progressive republicanism, friends of the "New NationalIsm," or those detailed to write the story of Roosevelt's crossing of Indiana, carrying the Burning Cross hat is to serve as a summoning of the clans for the final test of supremacy, a scant four weeks away. Army of Journalists. The crowds were not from Indiana alone, but the evening and late night trains pulling Into Danville Wednesday brought representatives of the great news gathering associations, the special correspondents of great metropolitan papers and molders of public thought from the eastern and middle west. The practical politician who knows how to get out the vote on a raw, rainy day, and who thinks his work Is deserving of some substantial reward, rubbed elbows' with the civil service reformer, who regards such conduct as a prostitution of patriotIsm; the organization man who knows how to placate Bill Jones and swing the foreign vote, but who could not make a speech to save his life or his party, mingled with the coiners of phrases and was glad. Teddy was coming to help Beverldge in the great contest and he must be given a good running start so that he would cross the state line under full speed. The men down in the Outlook office who arranged this trip of Roosevelt's put Danville on the route, either Inadvertently or Intentionally, and Danville was the last place Roosevelt was to pass before he reached Indiana. Before Joe's Castle Walls. That Is why "Uncle Joe's" home and castle became the temporary headquarters of national Insurgency and witnessed the greatest gathering of the opponents of things Cannon stands for that the city will witness until that grim old warrior and his associates are no more. Among those who were on the ground as an advance guard were Senator A. J. Beverldge, Edwin Lee, republican state chairman; John Hays republican state secretary; Lucius B. Swift, Indianapolis: R. O. Leeds, Richmond; Warren O. Sayre. Wabash, Fred Landls, Logansport, O. H. Palmer, Sheridan, chairman of the Ninth district; Otis Gulley, Danville. Ind.. candidate for secretary of state: W. Harding, Indianapolis, C. T. Peck, Greencastle, chairman of the Fifth district; Jacob Bauer, Lawrenceburg. chairman of the Fourth district; Arthur Krock. correspondent of 'the Louisville Courier-Journal, Lee Robinson, correspondent Louisville Post. Angus McSween, Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia North American, and representatives of the Indianapolis papers. Joe's Henchmen Angry. Roosevelt was an unwelcome visitor, or at least he was not welcome by the political powers that reign in Danville and Vermillion county who swear by the big black cigar of "Uncle Joe." In fact the republican organization of the city and county refused to Join with the Danville Industrial club In extending welcome to Roosevelt or asking him to speak here. They raised right up In meeting and said, so that all could hear, that they did not want T. R. and his "New Nationalism." and they did not propose to pretend they liked them either, even for "manners' sake." Cannon himself showed his indifference to the distinguished ex-presldent by absenting himself from the city and county. Inquiry at his home elicited the response he had a meeting in the southern part of his district that demanded his presence and he would be unable even to wig-wag the man at whom the lions balked. The Danville Industrial club was courteous and wired Roosevelt they wanted him for a speech. This was his reply: "Regret that it is Impossible to change schedule. Will speak for one minute from rear platform, as I advised you." So the lemons flew thick and fast, and Danville was pleased. T. R. ditto. Progress of Beverldge. Senator Beveridge and his party did some traveling ana experienced a delightful surprise in their efforts to get to Danville. The senator had three afternoon meetings Wednesday in Monroe county, which he had to fill, and then he left for Danville, via Lafayette. His train over the Monon out of Bloomlngton was late and It looked as though he would miss connections at Lafayette so a wire was sent to. the Wabash railroad to hold the Danville train. The Wabash train was late Itself, and the telegram in some mysterious way, which no one ; would reveal, fell into the hands of the Lafayette Lincoln club. The members held a hurried conference and as a result when the Beveridge

When it came to criticizing Michael Mordkin they were at a lossj ior any oasis or comparison, Decause he stands alone in a field distinctly: his own. Mordkin has been likened unto a Greek statue come to life, and called by some enthusiasts a Greek God. The apotheosis of masculine strength and force, with a head and face remarkable for classic outline, he possesses a deft grace of movement and agility known only to the Russian school of dancing. Nothing like this remarkable man ever has been seen outside the land of the "Little Father," as the Czar is known. Their dancing and posing was the triumphant feature of the Metropolitan opera season during the four weeks they were permitted to visit; Xew York and Boston last winter. In I returning this season they will be sur-l rounded by an ensemble of sixty, in-: eluding eight character dancers of al-j most equal fame in Russia. The management of the Gennett theater in securing them for an appearance here October 28, regards the attraction as the most remarkable that has ever been brought here.

"You know the French people have th dei-elopment of the bust and form down to a fine point. "By this French method, the breasts may be developed from J to 8 inches in 30 days. This applies to women of almost any age. from young girls to elderly matrons, whether the bust is absolutely not developed at all. or has grown weak and flabby, and hangs, no matter from what cause. "It Is beauty of form that attracts much more than the features. Tou will always find It so with both sexes.

Evelyn Nesbit Thaw up Against The Cruel Bitter World Today

(American News Service) Xew York, Oct. 13. Once the cen tral figure in gay night revels and saturnalias about the heart of the city. where money was plentiful aid time hung leisurely on the hands of her admirers. Evelyn Xesbit Thaw, wife of Harry Kendall Thaw, murderer of Stanford White, by all accounts, is up against it The prevailing suspicion that she received a large sum of money from the family of her husband in consideration of her sensational tes- j tirnony at his trial appears to have had little basis in fact. There is nOj doubt that she was promised a for-i tune, but being of a trusting nature! and lacking in business shrewdness j she neglected to drive a good bargain j when she could have done so, accept- j ing the assurances of the Thaws that they would provide her with a sub stantial annuity. But for her testi mony nothing in the world would have saved Thaw from going to the electric chair. Realizing this the shabby treat ment accorded her by the Thaw fam ily has since made her feel that she lost a golden opportunity to make herself comfortable for life when she failed to make them guarantee her a fixed sum. Her discontinuance the other day of her suit for damages against the Knickerbocker Hotel for ejecting her and E. R. Thomas, the banker, from its dining room in 1908, revealed the fact that she is practically without funds of any kind. Depending upon the gratuities of the Thaws, which come along at irregular intervals, she is now forced to live largely on credit, the tradesmen takBREAKFAST FOOD Nutritious easily digested

In the widespread public interest shown in the announcement of the discovery of a fortune in wild rubber in an explored forest on a 15,000 acre estate in British Guiana, owned by the Bartica company, a corporation with offices in this city, there is a vivid suggestion of the furore created last spring in London when several of the Kast Indian rubber companies announced dividends of more than 200 percent. The discovery which is attributed to Henry Pearson, editor of

the Indian Rubber World, who found; specimens of wild rubber trees growing ou the outskirts of the forest when he visited the property in March last, and suggested an exploration of the whole tract, looks to be the biggest thing of its kind reported in some years. An average of 20 trees to the acre has been found, indicating some 280.000 on the whole area. They range all the way from 20 to 90 inches in circumference and some are believed to be 100 years old. It is believed they will yield on an average of five pounds of dry rubber to the tree in the first year of tapping or an indicated aggregate of 1,400,000 pounds to the whole forest. Samples of the la ter extracted from some of the trees on the property sent here for analysis are reported to have a market value two-thirds that of Para rubber and therefore worth from $1 to $1.50 a pound.
