AO UNDESIRABLE SCORilEOLlBERTY Hobo, Given Fake Sentence of Year, Wouldn't Seize Chance to Escape.

"One year, and if you come back again it will be two years," ttaid Mayor Zimmerman in police court this morning. Before him stood Ed. Kelly, a shoestring and pencil peddler, who was arrested yesterday, the same day be had been released from the county Jail, and for the same offense for which be bad been sentenced, drunk. "Can't you reduce that a little. Your Honor,'' queried Kelly) it's kinda stiff to buck a spell in jail like that. Let me go this time, and I'll net out of town in a hurry and never come back. "One year," reiterated the Mayor, who was Joking, but Kelly didn't know It Kelly, much worried, and a trifle mad, was led back to the Jail and the doors carefully left unlocked and a trifle ajar. Faces at every window of the city building watched for the hobo to make bis break for liberty, but he didn't. Finally be was told to take a broom and sweep the city building's back walks. No one was watching him that be could see, but he still refused to else his opportunity to escape. Then he took a shovel and cleaned up the refuse, with liberty still staring him in the face, but he covered bis face and would not look. Finally in desperation, one of the frequenters of the city building told him to cut and run for it, and that he would not be caught or prosecuted. But be refused. He "wasn't taking no chances of getting stung twice as bard." he explained. Then another told him the same story about his chances of getting out of town, but he still declined to "beat If Finally one man walked out and told him there was a stone pile at the county Jail. Ills face paled, he gasped, but continued sweeping. Finally an officer made out a commitment, showing he had been fined 9100 and costs and given 200 days in jail, a total of 370 days in Jail, but when left in the Jail with both doors open and the commitment paper in his band, he sat down and waited to be taken to the county Jail. His real commitment papers show he received a fine of $5 and costs. City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. MOORE Emma J.

SYRUP SUPPLY THIS

YEAR TO BE SHORT The maple syrup "crop" will be short this year. The time for making the Juicy embellishment for buckwheat cakes, is usually in February when the sap begins to work up onto the branches, but this year the extreme cold weather, continuing until late has delayed the manufacture of the sugar and syrup. Some camps are being worked now, but the product is said to be Inferior to that of last year. The output will not be as heavy, because many farmers who formerly ran camps are not making any effort to do so this year, bending their efforts to making preparations for breaking the ground for their spring crops, which the frost in the ground will delay this year. Sporting Gossip The Cincinnati club is importing real blue grass sod from Kentucky to turf the diamond in the new Rcdland park. Ty Cobb has led the American league hitters for the past five years, and has made a grand total of 900 hits in that time. "Happy Jack" Chesbro, the former spitball king, is at Hot Springs, Ark., making an effort to get into shape for a "comeback" stunt. The Western Canada league will have a four club circuit the coming season with teams in Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge and Bassano. "Lefty Russell. Connie Mack's $12,000 beauty, claims his arm is O. K. once more, and that he is ready to show some class on the Mring line. With George Stovall in the line-up the St. Louis Browns look to have a good chance to come up from down there and enjoy a little sunshine. Manager Hugh Duffy, of the Milwaukee team, is trying out a pitcher by the name of Hathias Ziesor. Be careful and don't bite your tongue. Manager Griffith, of the Washington team, has Ave candidates for first base. Schaefer, Knight, Williams, Flynn and Spencer will all try for the position. It is said that "Sammy" White, Princeton's star football and baseball player, has agreed to play baseball for Jack Dunn's Baltimore Orioles. Catcher Billy Sullivan of the White Sox, has picked Pitcher "Flame" Delhi, who has come to the Chioago team from the Pacific Coast league, to be another Ed Walsh. Claude Ritchie, the old Pittsburg and Boston second baseman, will probably bo given a chance to perform with the Atlanta team. Ritchie's last engagement was with Providence in 1910. Of the Detroit Tigers, Hugh Jennings heads the list of baseball service. Hugh has been connected with the game 21 years, Donovan 17, Delehanty 13, Crawford 12, MulUn 11 and Jones 10. Ed Sweeney of the Highlanders and Bill Sweeney of the Boston Nationals are both holding out for more money. They say telling it to Sweeney don't go, it has to be written in the contract. The United States aviation instruction field is but a few miles from Augusta where the Boston Nationals are doing their spring training. The army blrdmen have great sport watching the ball games from aloft, while the tossera take chances of getting beanod while rubbering at the aeroplanes. WITH THE BOXERS. Bill Lang, the Australian heavyweight, has decided to quit the ring and engage in business in Melbourne. Young Loughrey of Philadelphia and Frankie Mandolo the Pittsburg lightweight, have both retired from the ring. Bcmbardier Wells, England's heavyweight champion, who is matched to box Al Palzcr in San Francisco, July 4, will said for this country May 11. YK1

They will prove best in tbe field where the real test comes. The length of shaping of Janesville plow bottoms is based on correct principals, that's why Janesville plows have won more prizes in five successive years at the world's two greatest annual plowing matches than all other makes combined. The reason is, that Janesville plow bottoms are scientifically correct and before they were adopted in their present form they had been proven best by exhaustive tests on the experimental grounds of the Janesville Machine Co., doing actual work on wild soil, and turf and stubble.' The moldboard of tbe Sod Breaker bottom is long, but not too long. The furrow slice is turned completely upside down and laid before it begins to drag and increase the draft. The moldboard of the Stubble bottom is shaped to carry the furrow slice as high as possible and lay it properly with the greatest amount of pulverization possible. Repeated experiments have produced the moldboard called the Turf and Stubble Bottom. We have succeeded in producing this combination through the application separately of the principals which meet .the requirement of a Turf Bottom and Stubble Bottom. Youwill find tbe Janesville Turf and Stubble Bottom will give perfect satisfaction on either ground with the least friction and the most thorough pulverization possible. The Janesville Sod and Stubble Bottom has been proven equally successful: It is adapted for work similar to the Turf and Stubble Bottom. It will not only lay sod over smoothly; but will pulverize stubv ble ground more than any other style of bottom we make. Many of these combination bottoms have done good work in the fields, saving their owners the price of an extra bottom, and the labor and time of changing from one to the other. We cannot recommend oar combination bottoms too highly. FARMERS WILL NEED THE BEST THIS SPRING because of the late Spring and Short Season. Come in and let us demonstrate to yon that we have the most up-to-date line of Plows, Harrows, Planters, Seeders, Spreaders, Etc

OPPOSING

LIGHTinGPROJECT Says Cluster-Lamps Should Not Be Installed for Two Years. There is still hopes of the cluster lighting system being adopted in Richmond. Yesterday afternoon the committee from the Y. M. B. C. met with tne Board of Public Works and after some discussion the Mayor announced that he would take the matter again under advisement and let the committee know his decision within ten days. The committee presented figures com piled by Supt. Johnson of the Light Plant showing that it would only cost the City about $72.00 per month to light Main street with the cluster lighting system. The Mayor said that be thought the cost would be considerable more than the figures named. He argued that the light plant was making good money now but it would need the money to take care of the improvements contemplated in the next two years. William H. Turner of Kokomo, who recently purchased a building on Main street, was present and told the board that Richmond would be behind the times if the cluster light system was not adopted. He, as a property owner, greatly favored the project. The committee has asked the Richmond Light, Heat and Power Company to make the committee an estimate as to what would be their charge to install and equip th lamps. Mr. Wharton of the company stated that they had installed one system in many cities and that they would be glad to put in the system here. They will make an estimate on the work and submit it to the committee within a few days. Nimrod Johnson, superintendent of the Municipal Light Plant, said last night to a representative of the Palladium that the lights would not be installed fn Richmond and that be would recommend to the board that the proposition be turned down. He also said that he did not think the board would allow the R. L. H. & P. company to use the sidewalks and the streets. He said that he would fight any attempt to have the lights installed in Richmond within two years. The committee of the Y. M. B. C. is determined to get the matter settled one way or the other and will not give up until everything possible has been done to secure the lights.

WOMAtl SMUGGLER COMMITS SUICIDE Mrs. E. Carson Hangs Herself in New York Hotel Following Arrest. (National News Association) NEW YORK, March 20. Mrs. Ed

win Carson, said to be the wife of a wealthy Los Angeles physician, com-i mitted suicide at the Hotel Brestall today, 12 hours after she had been arrested here for smuggling. j Tying a rope about her neck thej woman jumped from the window of ; her apartments on the eighth floor I of the hotel. Passersby in Fifth avenue saw the" woman's body dangling from the end of the rope and notified the hotel management. Hotel attendants rushed to the , eighth floor and hauled the body back into the room while physicians from the New York hospital were summon ed. They said life had been extinct but a short time. Mrs. Carson arrived here on the liner Geo. Washington Monday from Paris and went to the Hotel Wolcott where she registered as Mrs. Blanche M. Carson, of San Francisco. When Mrs. Carson arrived, according to the customs authorities, she declared gems worth only between $1100 and $1200. An investigation by officials of the port led to discoveries which brought the smuggling charge. The investigation revealed that Mrs. Carson had really brought in pearls, diamonds and other jewels worth $20,0000. When the undervaluation was established Gen. Nelson M. Henry, surveyor of the port of New York and other officials beld a conference. Mrs. Carson was summoned from the Wolcott to give an explanation. Mrs. Carson, accompanied by Harrison Osborn, formerly solicitor in the customs house service, visited the customs office and there, it is alleged, made a full confession, declaring that she had purchased the gems in question in India. Many of tbe diamonds were uncut. Mrs. Carson declared she feared the duties would be so great that she could not pay them if she gave the full value of her jewels. She was arraigned before Justice Carpenter In Jersey City and held in $2,000 bail for a hearing Friday. After requesting that her predicament be kept from the public Mrs. Carson returned to the Wolcott but immediately packed up her effects and moved to the Brestell.

The workings are on fire and no chance of rescue is held out. Men tried to enter the mines, but were driven back from the entrance by the fire, which is believed to have forced its way back to the chamber in which they are entombed.
