Vaudeville for Prisoners

CHICAGO, Oct. S0.-John l.. Whit
man, the jailer- philanthropist of Chi
cage, has presented to the National
Association of Prison Keepers and
Wardens a plan for the adjustment
of the cellular system of prisons. Mr..
Whitman is an unique character. He
gives vaudevilles, musicals and theatri-
Gals to his prisoners twice weekly. He
devotes much of his time finding posi-
tons for them after their release, and
in "rehabilitating' their characters
during their imprisonment.
He has never used the dungeons in
Chicago's Jail. On several occasions
prisoners have refused opportunities
to escapes and have warned guards of
breaks in doors and walls because of
their affection for their custodian.
Through the storms of many political
changes this humanitarian jailer has
kept his position. lie organized and

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 3o.-ihe
"Old Gray Fox of the Ozarks' has
been caught at last and the moonshine
business in the Ozark region has re-
ceived a death blow. For 20 years the
revenue officers have been trying to
catch Jasper Lillard, who had the
reputation of being able to run still
under the revenue officers noses, and
he is said to have sold more "cohn
whisky" than any four men IN the
Ozarks. m
The officers found number of stills
that they were pretty sure belonged to
Lillard, but they could never catch
the "Old Gray Fox" in proximity to
establish his ownership. In time it
came to be the ambition of every
revenue officer in the district to eaten
Lillard.
The settlers are Kentuckians and
Tennesseeans. who believe that the
government has no right to tax whis-
key, and those who were not actively
engaged in the business were moon
sinners Mt heart. Therefore, it was
impossible for the officers to get in
formation against Llllard.
Finally Marshal Thomas declared he
would get Lillard or throw up his job
He set about il Systematically. Ate,
six months he sprung his trap an,
the "Old Gray Fox" was caught.
A still was found several miles from
his farm house. Two deputies were
set to watch, but the old fox was wary
Day after day passed, but never hid
nor hair of Lillard was seen.
Finally, completely thrown off tn
track, he ventured forth. The officer
allowed him to get his still in opera

ESTIMATE EXCAVATION
FOR THE new V|ADuCT

Following instructions from the
special meeting of the city council
last night. the councils committee on
streets visited the viaduct under the
Northern Pacific tracks on Washing
ton street this morning to consult
with adjoining property owners and
estimate the amount of excavating
that woGid be necessary to permit the
trolley cars of the Spokane Traction
company to pass under the tracks.
The committee was informed that
the present grade of the street is
about one foot and half higher than
normal, and that an extra three feet
will have to be excavated to give the
street car company much space
as Is desired under the railroad
tracks.
1t was agreed by we committee to
have Engineer Gill prepare plans

showing the change that this excavat-
ing, stating at a distance of a block
from either side of the viaduct, will
make in the topography of the street.
Later these plans are to be submitted.
together with a petition to the owners
of abutting property.
If the property owners favor the
petition a special ordinance will have
to pass the city council calling for
the extra grading. This change in the
grade will cost about $500. The
street car people have agreed to fur
nish $1,000 of this amount, If the
grade conforms to their wishes.
If the grade is not desired by the
property holders, serious trouble may
result. At best, the passage of the
ordinance at three separate meetings
of the council will delay the operation
of the new trolley line on Washington
street
