SERVED one YEAR
IN THREE HOURS
Convict, Not Confined When Sen
fenced, Got Benefit Of Good
Behavior Allowance.

Leavenworth, Kan, Sept. l5.-To
serve only three hours in the peniten-
tiary for an original sentence Of one
year and one day was the pleasant ex-
perience Of T. j. Attaway.
It was thru a recent ruling of the
attorney general Of the United States
that the prisoner was released from con-
taWay was brought to the penitentiary
by Marshal Colbert of the southern dis
trict of Indian Territory. He was SEN
fenced at Chickasaw, l. T., to serve one
year and one day for false pretence.
The sentence was given on Oct. 10, 1904.
Instead Of bringing the prisoner to
the penitentiary at that time to serve
out his sentence the official allowed
him to go on a Suspended sentence, and
it was not until Aug. 9 that the court
ordered that he be brought to the peni-
tertiary to serve his time.
The attorney general had ruled that
allowances Of good conduct should be.
gin from the date of sentence and not
from the time the prisoner is received
at the penitentiary. This. ruling was
made June 10. Attaway was therefore
entitled to deduction from his, sen.
tence Of two months and twelve
days, which would cause his term tc
expire on Aug. Z.
The prisoner could not be released in
Indian Territory on this ruling, because
he had to be brought to the prison.
Attaway was received at the prison
in the customary manner. He was tax
en- to the deputy's office and the war
den had a receipt for the prisoner giver
to the marshal. The prisoner was pho
tographed the same as any other con
Wet, as the officials wished to have
some evidence that they had him in con
fnement for time at least. He wa

To Remove Stains.

Peach and plum stains are among
the most difficult spots because they
show so little before wetting Then
they turn dark. They MAJ be removed
by means of the old-fashioned grass

grass when fruit trees are in bloom.
1t is not tradition or fancy that they
disappear. Some very bad spots may
be removed easily by wetting and put

a particularly lovely gown in the

bodice and on the short puffed sleeve
and the lace guimpe, the gown was
all in one tone, a cloth collar. cloth

to point well above the knees being

the banana, apricot, sulphur and can
airy yellows, black velvet is especially
effective. Rose velvet also is liked
upon the pale yellows of the maize
or straw tints, this color combination
being one of the Louis XVI. fancies.

One About Ducks,

Here seems to be nice, cool streaiEI
for one of Frank N. Busch's duck
yarns. Mr.. Busch was up in the Fox

house. One morning the farmer held
up two live ducks in. his hands and
exclaimed:

but l had to pay for 'em, too-cost 81
apiece. But they are raisers Nv~=

enough to stock a marsh
Canvas backs, your grandfather"
replied Mr.. Busch. "They are blue
mud hens, both of them"
mo, no. I know the man that
raised 'em; sold him the corn that he
fed to them-I know"
The dispute grew thick and furious.
Mr.. Busch happened to have an illus
irated book on ornithology In his
trunk. He brought it out and showed
the farmer the difference in looks.
The man of the hoe and the ducks
shook his head ruefully for moment
Suddenly his face frightened He
