Guessing Time in Court.

One day in referring to humorous
ha nnenings in court, Congressman
Champ Clark told Of an important
lawsuit tried at Clay Center, Mo-, IN
which the testimony of small boy
touching the period Of time required
to get a bucket Of water for his mother
became a question of considerable I'M
portance to the opposing side.
The Lad had stated that it took him
lust ten minutes to get the water.
The opposing attorneys adopted means
in their questioning OF the lad, that
were calculated to rattle the witness,
but to no avail. Finally one of the at
torneys pulled out his watch, proposing
to test the lads notion. of time. The
LAWYERS who depended upon the boys
testimony strenuously objected to this
course, for it is well known that Moth
ing is harder than to sit still and gage
the passing of time However, the
Judge ordered the test to be made.
The court clock was stopped, watches
were drawn, and the lad told to begin
the test.
After a minute or SO the silence in
the court room became oppressive;
everyone fidgeted nervously except the
youngster who chewed gum, swung his
foot against the rounds Of his chair,
and gazed complaeently over the
benches as tho the procedure had little
interest for him. Three, four, five, six
minutes passed, and still he made no
sign.
Then the lawyers resumed their eff
forts to rattle the witness. Isn't the
time about up?" asked one.
Nope" answered the boy, chewing
gum harder than ever.
Seven and eight minutes elapsed.
"Haven't you got that water pumped
yet?" said one of the attorneys in a
tone intended to convey the impress
sion that more than ten minutes had
passed.
Reckon not" sententiously replied
the boy. Whereof his own lawyers
chuckled.
Then nine minutes passed.. and tick,
tick. tick. went the seconds toward
the ten-minute mark About four sec
onds before the limit set, the boy
drawled out:
Gents, think 1 got that water
drawed"
After the trial when some one ask
ed him how he had contrived to guess
the time so correctly, he replied: "Oh.
l just sorter Inowed, that's all"

by the defense will be to ask for a
stay of sentence until the appeal is

ing with United States Marshal Chan
dler, United States Attorney Sullivan
and the court yesterday to the effect
that there would be no attempt to exc
cute the sentence until the defense had
an opportunity to carry the case to
the higher court and there obtain a
suspension of the sentence. Mrs. Chad
wick will be defended to the last5court
No action will be taken by United

other six indictments against Mrs.
Chadwick in the federal court until the
present case is finally disposed of II
the present case and sentence is sus-
tanned by the last court, the other
cases will be dropped, otherwise they
will be used against the woman
The action of the court yesterday
finally closed the Chadwick case, as
far as the Cleveland court is concern
ed, unless the unexpected happens and
the higher court discharges the woman
or orders new trial. This, however,
does not relax the strain for United
States Attorney Sullivan. He will have,
to defend the governments case thru
every court to which the defense NAV
appeal.
Mrs. Chadwick Not Affected.
Mrs. Chadwick was not particularly
affected by the action of the court yes
terday, as seemingly she had resigned
herself to any action that might be
taken. When she was told that the
motion for a new trial had been re-
fused she merely nodded her head,
as If she already knew, tho she is so
hard of hearing she could not have
known what words the court uttered.
When ordered to stand up and re-
cedve the sentence Mrs. Chadwick did
not hear. and was assisted to her feet
by Deputy United States Marshal Clo-
bitz. The court asked her if she had
anything to say why sentence should
not he pronounced. She looked around
In bewilder1nent. She was not Ger
tain what was taking place, and had
not the slightest idea what the court
said. She was then led forward near
er the bench, and the court shouted
the question. She then understood
"but would like to consult with my
attorneys first"
You may do so, but it must be inn
mediately," the court enjoined her. "If
you have anything to say you must
say it now"
Mrs. Chadwick said there was Moth
ing she cared to say herself. Her
attorneys made no appeal to the court
and the sentence was Immediately i'm
posed. Judge Tayler made no remarks
except to explain the terms of the sem
tence. He stated that the sentence Of
one count should begin at the expira-
ton Of the one preceding it.
After the sentence was imposed the
court adjourned, but it was over half
hour later before Mrs. Chadwick was
taken back to the county Jail. She had
been talking with her attorneys.
Suffers With Rheumatism,
Mrs. Chadwick was suffering from
rheumatism of the left shoulder yes
terday, and it caused her much pain
During the afternoon, she was not in
the court room until Judge Tayler
passed upon the motion for a new trial
She was in a private room, where her
affliction was attended to.

cleveland. March 2S.-Unless the
higher court interferes Mrs. Cassie u
Chadwick, will spend the greater part
Of the next ten years in the Ohio state
penitentiary.
A sentence of ten years was imposed
on her by Judge Robert w. Taylor, IN
the United tSates district court at 3
o'clock last evening. The sentence
came at the close of busy day for the
court in hearing arguments on mo-
ton for a new trial, which lasted all
day. The motion was overruled.
Mrs. Chadwick was convicted on
seven counts and sentenced upon SIX
counts. For four OF these counts a
sentence of two years each was I'M
posed. Upon two counts a sentence
of enc year was imposed, making
total sentence Of ten years.
AS soon as the sentence was pro-
nourlced, Attorney j. P. Dawley, OF
counsel for Mrs. Chadwick took excep-
tions to the sentences upon each count
except the first. The defense intends
to make the claim that the court can
no. impose a separate sentence for
each count; that the law applies to
the general charge instead of each in
cident of a general charge. The var
ious, counts Of the Indictment are con-
side.red by the defense to refer only to
details of the general offense. This
point will also be contested in the
higher court as will the other points
