Why Murderer Paid No Attention While
Being Sentenced to Death.
Richard Coleman of Virginia, while vet
very young man, was made Judge Of one of
the Eastern Circuit Courts, says Youths
Companion. Before his appointment he had
led quiet, studious life aud had obtained
no extended reputation except among law
yers.
Shortly after he went upon the bench a
cruel murder was committed in his district
by VIGOROUSLY bad man. The murderer
was taken, tried and convicted of murder in
the first degree.
In pronouncing the sentence of the law
upon the prisoner, Judge Coleman spoke
with so much feeling and eloquence that
many OF the listeners were moved to tears
The murderer. on the other hand, seemed to
be quite Indifferent, looking at the ceiling
and apparently paying no attention what
ever to what was being said
After lie was remanded to Jail one of the
young lawyers went into the cell. curious to
know how the criminal had felt when the
Judge was passing sentence upon him.

derer.
Il mean when the Judge was telling YOU
that you were to be hanged"
you mean when he was talking TO me?"

Borchers and His Speed Too Much for
the Sacramentos.
Before a small audience at Emeryville
yesterda y morning Oakland defeated Sacra-
mento in listless game. BOrchers did the
box work for Oakland, aud had all the
speed whirh has made him famous. Hoff-
man did the same service for Sacramento,
but was not as effective as he IS ordinarily
He was compelled to go into the game with
out any preliminary practice. The day was
damp and cold, and shea took advantage Of
the warming-up work Of the ''Uld Hoss" by
lifting TO left for three bags. Carroll went
out and Power hit to center for three.
Sweeney took a base on balls. Power scored
on Spies error Sweeney stole second and
third and scored on Wards error
In the fourth inning singles by Cantillinn,
Speer and B0rchtrs, twO-bagger by 0'Npil
and an error by Ward gave Oakland three
more runs.
With two men out in the fourth. Sacra-
me- to scored two runs on base on balls,
a tive Dagger by McGuirk and a single by
McHale.
In the seventh a two Dagger by Power to
the fence and a three Dagger by Hines
closed the run-getting of the game.
The game was devoid Of interesting fea-
lures, with the exception Of the hitting of
McGuirk and Power. The score:

next three and race in 2:14R. 2:15 and
2:16R. Yet ever the Independence kite
Allerton went against time in 2:O9A, giving
him the stallion championship.
Nelson too has gone fast mile against

he does not seem to have stayed the route.
But for her recent indis ositiOn Nancy
Hanks would undoubtedly be the worlds

not lost race this year and has trotted the

During the past week San Jose won
but one game of three played, reducing its
percentage .O06. Frisco won two and lost
two, thereby losing .00l Sacramento won
three and lost two, thus gaining COZ; Oak
land won two and lest two, gaining .OO5.
The season closes four weeks from last
night. 1t is safe to say that the fight for
pennaut honOrs now IS between San Jose
and san Francisco, which teams only play
one more game together. san Jose plays
ten games with Sacramento and Frisco
meets Oakland ten times. 1t IS upon these
games that the interest centerS, for they
will decide which one Of the two teams is to
play the champion POrtlaudS.
The PO-tlands will be in the State this
week They will tour the State and then
90 into training at Monterey.
During the game yesterday the Colonel
took his seat OH the bench when there were
two men on bases, two out and Judge
Sweeney at the bat. Sweeney fouled out
ana Tfpperary O'Neil yelled Take that
Colonel off the bench" The request came
but once, as the Colonel obediently arose
and sought the Shelter of the stand. Even
Tip begins to realize that his boss is
Jonah.
Tom Parrot, in a game at Portland last
year made the shortest base hit on record.
The ball struck the h me plate and never
left it.
The Emera!ds defeated the Eclipses. 10 to

and Tribe and the frst-base playing Of
Peters were the features.
The Young San Jnses made nine runs
Yesterday while the Young Frankllns were
doing their best to make seven. Grant and

game.

Swiss Embroidery.

The common old embrOidering hand ma
chine of 1927, with few improvements is the
one that is used to-day for the millions Of
fine embroideries that are sold to all quar-
ters of the globe. There are, perhaps. 3d.
600 of them in use in Eastern Switzerland,
the number of the needles averaging about
$50 TO the machine, and the number of
stitches not exceeding 1000 to the needle
daily.
AS embroiderers are paid on the stitch
basis only, and sometimes as low as four
and one-lialf cents hundred, they have
very small earnings left after paying their
threaders and other expenses. At the
present time 80 cents, sometimes less, is a
fair average of the daily earnings of a hard
working embroiderer, who must toll long
day with head, hands and feet working his
