One Year for Burglary

Harry Allen was tried yesterday in
department one for burglary in the first
degree and was convicted. He waived
time for sentence, and Judge Smith or
dered him committed to San Quentin
for one year. He entered the room of
William Kranz, at the corner of Belle
vue avenue and Montreal street, on the
night OF the 30th of October and stole
a pair of trousers and a pair of shoes.
Previous good conduct and the fact
that Allen was playing in hard luck
when he committed the offense are ac-
countable for the leniency of the sem
tence.

FOR PRINCIPLE
It Is Not the Amount Involved That
Causes Stuart to Sue

William II. Stuart. mail carrier, has
commenced an action in the superior
court against T. f. NeWlin, county clerk
for the return of $l.10. being the surplus
remaining of deposit of SO, which Stu
art paid into the county clerks office
when he filed his answer to a complaint
In suit in which he was the defendant
and S. 7. Lemon the plaintiff in July
1892. Only s1.20 of this amount was ex-
pended as costs, nevertheless when At
torney Hinckley, Stuart's counsel, came
around after the judgment in the action
had been entered, for his s1.70, Mr.. New
lin said him nay.
This, the plaintiff contends, is a con-
travention of the act to regulate fees Of
office and salaries of certain officers and
to repeal certain acts in relation there
to. Judge York issued a writ of man
date, commanding County Clerk Newln
to show cause on Saturday at 10 o'clock
why an order should not be made that
he return the balance of Stuarts deposit
to him.

WHISPERS CAUSED SPLIT
Two Sects of Indiana Can't Agree Up
on the Wearing of Boards

Huntington, Ind, Nov. 10.-A band of
men and women religious enthusiasts have
been preaching on the streets of Martins
vile for several days and nights past.
They say that the end of this "dispensa-
ton" is coming in a few months and
that Mohammedism will be wiped off the
face of the earth next year. They are
also very bitter against the churches.
They are against fashion. and insist upon
extreme simplicity of dress.
A sect called "Cramerites'' has also
grown up in the same community, whose
doctrine also is to fight the churches.
The strangers and the "Cramerites''
having similar doctrines, met together
and proceeded to have a love feast. This
ended in a dispute the subject of whis
kers which lasted until midnight.
The strangers testified how they had
become dead to the world by burning all
the pictures in their homes one woman
telling how she had been relieved of a
great burden when she burned the photo
graph of her mother who had been dead
for many years. Then one of the strang-
ers with a full, flowing beard got up and
told how he had been helped reIgiously
by allowing his whiskers to grow to their
full length He said the Bible command
ed all men not to mar the corners of
their beard
George Cramer. the originator of the
Cramerite sect. took exception to this and
stated that the laws of the Old Testa-
ment were not in force now, and that
men had a right to wear their boards as
they pleased. A general debate followed.
The long-whiskered stranger and a wo-
man belonging to his band held out
stoutly for the boards, and had not been
convinced of error when the meeting
closed.
Both sects say they intend to spread
their doctrines and organize branches of
their denominations in all parts of the
country.

COAL FOR EUROPE.
PENNSYLVANIA Anthracite May Find
its Way to Germany.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Nov. 1O.-The sub-com-
mittee of the Coal Operators association,
appointed to investigate the feasibility of
shipping anthracite coal to Europe, has
reported that American coal could be
shipped to ports in Germany at a profit,
but it would be impossible to enter it
cheap enough to sell at a profit unless
the carrying companies make reduction
in freight rates of 80 per cent.
Nevertheless, the men back of the
scheme think the day IS coming when
anthracite will find it's way into the in
dustrial centers of Germany.

vestments in real estate for profitable
purposes. The frequent sales of this
kind denote a fulhllment of the predic-

there remain for the expenditure miles

MANY years to come. This fact coupled
with the low prices prevailing at pres

to buy.
Prices cannot long remain where they
are. Recent purchases make it evident
that men with money realize this. me

are therefore most competent to judge
of the future When outside capitalists
discover that our own people are back
ing their faith in the future with their
money they will not be long in trying
to get a share in the prosperity in store
for the chief city of the state.
All that is necessary is for TOpeka's
business men to let outside capitalists
know what is going on. Inform them
that Topeka has secured three valuable
industries this year, a creamery, a can
ming factory and d wooden mill; that a
new bridge costing $4,000 is about
completed; that the erection of many
handsome residences and other
buildings are about to be
commenced that the sales
by Topeka jobbing houses have largely
Increased during the current year; that
Topeka wholesalers and manufacturers
have more than 100 travelling men on
the road and the number is constantly
increasing; that the state spends many
thousands of dollars here every year in
improvements that she has the general
offices and the shops of the greatest
railroad system in the country Tell
them all these things, and they Will
come and bring their money.
Much capital has been a long time
idle and it is now looking for just such
places as Topeka in which to locate.

years ago as a place for profitable in

Mr.. Carton Said to Have Discovered

London, Nov. 1O.-What is alleged to be
the discovery of Mr.. Carton an English
agriculturist, has been tested exhaustive
ly with the greatest success at the Earl
of Winchilsea's experimental farm at
Sleaford 1t consists of applying the
principle of cross-fertilizatfon to grasses,
cIovers, cereals and other food plants.
The Earl of WinchiIsea's secretary says
that the experiments We're made, not only
with plants grown in the United King
dom, but with those of al lforeign agri-
cultural countries. Special varieties that
are best suited to any particular soil or
climate can therefore be produced.
The experiments have not been made
public hitherto. in order that a sufficient
quantity of seed might be raised to sup
ply the demand when the important re-
suits were made known. Mr.. Carton has
already received applications from some
foreign governments for seed.
The United States has effected crosses
of wheat, but has not attempted to cross
barley or oats. Mr.. Carton has succeed
ed in all his efforts. and Great Britain is
ing the world with new varieties of

AMERICANS ARE SLOW.
italian Officials Come Over to Find
Tobacco Merchants.

Washington, Nov. 1O-ConsuI General
Hector De Castro. at Rome, in a report
to the state department says that if busi-
ness men of the United States would give
the same attention to Italy which they
do to other countries they could largely
increase their trade.
He says there We're no bidders at the
auction for furnishing American tobacco
to the government monopoly and the min
lister of finance sent a representative to
New York for the purpose of purchasing
tobacco direct in various markets. 1t
seems that besides obtaining leaf of ex-
cellent quality the government has by
this means economical to the extent of
S221. $50.
The consul general also says that ac-
cording to the latest news received at
the office of the ministry of agriculture
of Italy the wheat harvest this year has
been estimated at Sc. S36 700 bushels. or
about 80 per cent of last years produc-
