Sentence of Young Dart.

To be Confined in Jail Nearly One Year
A Sad Ending OF n Promising Future.
In the City court yesterday morning VIII
liam A. Dart, the defaulting clerk at General
George h. Ford's jewelry store, was brought
before the court for sentence. Rufus s.
Pickett, his attorney, was present.
Judge Studley was on the bench, and after
he had disposed of few minor court cases
Judge Deming assumed judicial control and
proceeded to pass sentence on young Dart.
The young man looked nervous and pulled
out a scrap of paper upon which he noted
down his sentences. Judge Deming, while
everyone listened with the most intense in
terest, said in his usual solemn voice: I'm
the case of William Dart, for the theft of the
ring valued at 81. let the penalty be 81 and
costs; for stealing of the ring valued at SIS, let
the penalty be 81 and costs and thirty days
in Jail In the third case, that of the theft of a
watch valued at $15, let the penalty be 81
fine and costs and sixty days in jail. Here
question of jurisdiction arose. Mr.. Pickett
objected to this sentence on the ground that
it was more than the court could imI ose
under the statute. A consultation of the
authorities convinced his honor that Mr.
Pickett was right and he was wrong, and the
penalty was changed to 81 and costs and
thirty days. 'tIn the fourth ease, continued
his honor, ''that of stealing the 1926 watch,
81 and costs and ninety days. In the last
case. the theft of the $50 watch. let the pen
atty be 81 and costs and 100 days in jail"
Dart consulted with Mr.. Pickett for mo-
ment, and then the latter said:
"As to the question of bonds on an appeal
am not prepared to argue it. We will not
know until tonight whether we can obtain
bonds or not. The letters which have re-
ceived from Darts friends are very discour.
aging. They don't feel like coddling him
and they show no disposition to help him
bear the penalty. will merely give notice
that may take an appeal"
Dart was in laxative mood after SEN
tence had been pronounced, and he seemed
in excellent spirits. 81 think the penalty is
reasonably light" said he, ''but I feel Just
now as il would just as soon serve term of
fifty years. The stigma is on me anyhow.
I do not think care to have the cases ap-
pealed, for it might go harder with me in the
higher court"
Darts sentences will keep him in Jail for
nearly year. His fines and costs, if they
are not paid, will confine him for seventy-six
days, and this taken with the 27O days he re-
ceived in all from the court, and the eight
days he has already spent behind the bars
will make his punishment in all 354 days.
