Memphis, April George Benefits
crack 3-year-Old colt, Abe Frank, made
his first appearance of the year Tues
day afternoon in the third race at
Montgomery park and justified the con-
fidence of his hackers by winning in
romp. The race was at six furlongs,
and ten Derby candidates faced the
starter. Charles w. Meyer jumped 10
the front at the start. and set a fast
pace down the back stretch, closely fol-
lowed by Red Hook. When the turn was
made COburn sent Abe Frank forward
and the Derby favorite drew away as
he pleased winning handily in good
time. 1t was the general opinion that,
barring a mishap, the Bennett colt has
the Derby at his mercy
The day was an ideal one for racing,
and the track was at its best The first
event, a selling race, at five furlongs,
went to Clorita at long odds. The sec-
ond race, for 2-year-olds, at four fur
longs, showed q good 2-year-ol from
the Schorr stable in Gold Bell, by Gold
Crest. Off none too we'll. the colt ran
around his field and won, pulled up,
from The Advocate.
The Lady won the fourth race at
mile after a hard drive down the stretch
with Felix Bard, the favorite. The lat
ter should have won, but was badly
handled throughout the race.
The fifth event was 9, steeplechase
over the short course. Daryl opened IA
vorite, but a strong play on Henry Gibbs
sent his price down at the close. Gibbs
led his field over all the hurdles, and
looked to be winning easily but Daryl
came with a rush and nipped him on
the post.
In the sixth race, Chorus Boy ruled
favorite, with Eva Rive a strong second
choice. Neither was in the money at
the finish Curd GillOck winning by a
nose from MonoS.

to the weather record for March, pre-
pared under the supervision of the

of the first half. The snowfall was less
than One-half of the March average,
but the total amount of precipitation

ing the latter part of last summer Dick

Grand Jury to Indict Federal Con-
victs For Murder.

Leavenworth Kan. April 2-The United
States grand jury win probably meet in
Leavenworth next Monday and the jury's
first work viii be to return indictments
against the five convfcts who led the mu-
tiny a the new federal prison site last fall
They are Gilbert Mullins, Turner Barnes.
Neal JacO, Fred Robinson and Frank
Thompson. The men are all charged with
murder.
Extra precautions are taken to prevent
their escape. They are seldom allowed to
exercise, and when brought out of their
cells they are compelled to wear the heav-
lest balls and chains The men have Sc
cured counsel Their plea viii be that since
they We're prisoners when they committed
the Offense last fall they were legally dead
and therefore can not be tried again. If
convicted, and the evidence against them
is very strong, all five probably will be
hanged. United States District Attorney
Dean said tonight that he expected to Sc
cure the conviction of the men without
much trouble.

Atchisom Police Administration
Makes Good Showing.
Cash Receipts For the Year Are
Over $4,000.
EXPENSES ARE $1,000.
About One Hundred Per Cent of
1t Paid in Cash.
Comes From the License of the
" Necessary Evils. p

Atchison, April 2.-The Globe says:
Billy Sullivans police administration
for the fiscal year ending March 81 is
a very creditable one. The cash re-
ceipts for the year amounted to $685.
276.76. This does not include the
prison labor, which amounted to con-
siderable. The prison meals at 121a
cents a meal came to $349.50 and the
pay roll of the department figures up
at $6,417.21. The total expenses of the
police department for the year includ-
ing the stationery and other incidentals
probably did not amount to more than
$1,000, so that the Atchison police de-
partment paid over $4,000 in cash into
the city treasury in a year over ana
above all expenses. The expenses Of
the police department are cut to the
bone.
Chief Sullivan does not even use a
chain gang guard. He is smooth, and
when man is fined he usually makes
him pay cash instead of having him
work out the fine on the rock pile.
Nearly 100 per cent. of ali the cash paid
into the police court comes from the
necessary evils which are regulated
and run under a set of strict unWritten
rules formulated by the chief of police.
The arrests during the past year num-
bered only 337, or only about 25 a
month. There We're 292 men arrested
and 40 women During the previous
year the arrests numbered 497, show
ing that our behavior is becoming bet
ter all the time. When Billy Sullivan
went in as chief Of police it looked as if
he hard a hard record to go up against.
as Owen Seip had beaten all previous
records Sullivan now has Seip bested
for the year, taking in 81, 500-37 more
than Selp. The pay roll for last year
was $87 SO less than the year previous;
the meals came to $1S6.S7 less than the
year previous, and the cash receipts
were 81, 32601 more than the year pre-

nearly put out by McKeever a couple
