WESTFALL'S SENTENCE.
Ten Years to be Passed at San
Quentin.


At 10 o'clock A. NJ, yesterday, Geo.
Westfall convicted Of having attempt
ed the life Of his little son, was
.arraigned before Judge Cheney for
sentence. His attorney, Mr.. o. E.
Mason, who has so ably defended the
old man. in answer to the usual ques-
ton of the Court as to whether the
prisoner had any reason to offer why
sentence should not be passed upon
him, stated that he had no reasons to
offer, but that he wished to ask the
mercy of the Court. Believing the
old man to be insane, he had
done all in his power to establish
his belief but the jury had thought
otherwise. Tha prisoner at the bar
was old, decrepit and at best could
only stem the tide few years. In
view of this and the facts in the case
with which the court was familiar, he
felt warranted in making the request.
He read to the court the following
note written in cramped and nerv-
GUS hand by Westfall:
'T am an old man and feel that l
have but a few more days on this
earth, aud as my Father in heaven has
forgiven me, I pray that you will
have mercy on me.
GEO. WEsTFALL."
Judge Cheney, after reciting briefly
the charge and recital OF the crime
as proven, stated that for some time
he was convinced in his own mind
that Westfall was insane. The ques-
ton of insanity having been raised,
it was submitted to a jury. 1t de-
cided that he was sane. Again, the
question had been submitted to the
trial jury, and it had not only passed
upon his sanity but found him guilty
of having attempted to murder his
child. A more hideous crime could
hardly be conceived of. Asfor mercy
on the grounds of age, the Court was
not inclined to agree with counsel. If
Westfall was a young man mercy
would be more in accord with justice,
as he would have future before
him. In. short, a young man up
for a long term in the
State prison was to graduate him an
Ishmaelite of society. As it was, he
had only few years, and if confined
in safe and comfortable place he
could neither injure himself nor
others. If he was insane it would
soon be discovered and the court
would then be the first to take steps
to secure his pardon. AS it was, the
sentence would be such as would
probably allow the prisoner to end
his days in the penitentiary. The
decree was that George Westfall be
confined in the State prison at San
Quentin for the term of ten years.

A WASHINGTON HABIT.

l was standing in Ninth Street drug
store in this city little while ego, con-
versiug with the proprietor, when two
schoolgirls apparently about IA years
old, with their book satchels on their
arms, came timidly and hesitatiDgly
into the store. Approaching the young
mau at the cigar case one OF them said ::
Il want to buy a package of cigar
cites; mild ones please"
The young man looked ct the girls
and smiled. Il am sorry" said he,
but i can't sell them to you. Its
against the rules of the store to sell
cigarettes to laoies."
But my brother asked me to stop
here and get them for him" persisted
the girl.
Your brother will have to come and
buy them fer himself" replied the
clerk.
The girls glared at him moment,
and noticing that they we're attracting
the a.t,ntion of everyone in the store
thev quie'l slipped OFT.
When the girls hal gone the vonn g
man moraEzed. "Yol would not
think, said he, that such young girls
smoked, but they DO, and the number
that do is surprising, and many of them
belong to highly respectable famil es,
100. They always buy their cigar
ett,s at the drug stores. Tor
they have net yet become
bold enough to walk into a
regular cigar store for their goods.
Comparatively few OF them come here.
for they are beginning to learn that we
will not sell to girls; in fact. there are
very few drug stores in the city that
will The young misses have lately hit
upon very ingenious scheme. They
get smart neTsboy and make him
their purchasing agent. He takes their
money. goes to cigar store, buys the
cigarettes, and then meets the girls
around the corner with his purchases.
His com mission is usually two or three
out OF each package. The girls profit
by this plan, for the neWsboy is general
~ connoisseur in cigarettes and gets
the best in the store.
