WILL TRY AGAIN.
Judge Hazen Brings City Ordinance
Before Supreme Court.

Judge Hazen has taken his contest
against the Topeka city ordinance,
under which the police have been
making arrests for the Illegal sale of
liquor, to the supreme court on an
application for writ of habeas
corpus for the release of r. VanTuyl
from the city Jail.
The writ was granted and the
hearing was set for May 1. VanTuyl
was arrested by Chief SAITH and was
found guilty in police court of illegal
ly selling liquor. He failed to take
an appeal and was locked up. When
Judge Dana decided against Hazen in
the acknowledgements case on a mo-
ton to quash Hazen went to the SUI
preme court with the same question
in the VanTuyl habeas corpus case.
Hazen claims that because the city
ordinance fixes the jail sentence at
from 80 days to 80 days instead of
80 days to six months as the state
charter act provides that the ordi-
nance is not valid. Judge Dana de-
cided that the ordinance is good. The
supreme court will now have to de-
eide the question.

declared that the present meeting Of

ranged in the interest of AIessrs. Alex
ander and TarbeH. Many of the agents
today denied emphatically that the
meeting had been arranged in any
body's favor and said the gathering was
a representative one with no object ex-
cept the welfare of. the society and the
removal of existing conditions, which
they said, have made the work Of the
soliciting agents exceedingly difficult.
Mr.. Tarbeu made a statement today

RISKED THEIR LIVES
TO SAVE TWO DOGS
Daring Deed of Welsh Miners in De-
scending Poisonous Pit Is
Recognized by Gift
Special Cable to The Herald

Special Gable to The Herald.
CARDIFF, May Elm recognition
of an act of singular bravery, two
young Welsh miners-Bertie Griffiths
and Charles Evans-were presented at
Ruabon police court with handsome
gifts from the Dumb Friends league
and other admirers.
Some time ago a man named Gard
ner, who has since been sentenced to a
months hard labor for cruelty to ami
mails, hurled two dogs down some dis
used pits near Ruabon in order to
escape the payment of the license.
The animals, however, lodged on a
ledge about forty feet from the sur
face. For three weeks they remained
stranded without food, until Evans
and Griffiths happened to pass by, and,
hearing the dogs pteous howls, let
themselves down by chain and
rescued the suffering animals. One
died soon after it was brought to the
surface, but the other, named Lass,
has recovered.
The risks the rescuers ran can be
gathered from the fact that scarcely
had they commenced their downward
journey than the foul air extinguished
the lamps.

SPIRIT MOVES HER TO BET
Boston Puritan Falls From Grace and
Wins 1000 Francs
Special to The Herald

Special to The Herald.
PARIS, May 21.-The American
colony is greatly amused by dis
tingushed Boston woman's story Of
her own fall from grace and from the
prim traditions of her venerable Puri-
tan ancestry, with the compensation,
however, of a large haul at Monte
Carlo She had determined that Moth
ing could induce her to patronize the
seductive tables, but in the train she
was tormented by an interior voice call
ing Seventeen! Seventeen!"
At the table where she was watching
the gambling the voice was so insistent
that she was impotent to resist. She
put a franc on seventeen and won ten.
Again she played seventeen and again

horror L had won close to 1000 francs.
People were gazing at me with super
natural dread. I became afraid, tore
myself away and left the terrible place

LIVERPOOL, May 21.-From the
Mayer gallery, in the Liverpool muse
um, four Napoleon relics of priceless
value have disappeared.
The theory is that an expert thief took
advantage of the temporary absence of
the attendant at his dinner hour to open
the lock of the glass-covered safe in
which the articles were stored. In the
morning the relics had been secure in
their accustomed place; but in the af-
ternoon they had disappeared.
Not since the theft of the Nelson rel
les from Greenwich hospital two years
ago has such a sensational robbery TAX
en- place. AT the meeting of the library,
museum and arts committee reward
of $1,000 was offered for the recovery of
the articles and the Identification of the
thief.
The four articles which the thief took
were a ring set with sardonyX, a cameo
portrait of Napoleon, ornamented with
small diamonds; an enamel and gold
snuff box carved with cameo bearing
portraits of Napoleon, Marie Louise and
the young King of Spain, and signed
Morelli, and gold seal with miniature
military accoutrements round the
handle.

Westlands. the home of former Presi-

the butler came to the door and soon
returned with an answer that was evil
IDENTIFY unsatisfactory, for, with discon-
solate looks the aggregation retraced
its steps, Mr.. Cleveland had refused
to give them an audience. Later it de-
veloped that the women were members
of the Delaware County Teachers as
