GOES TO PRISON
AND PAYS FINE
JUDGE WELLB0RN SENTENCES
EVERETT B. THOMAS
Former Forest Supervisor Sent to San
Quentin for Three Years and
Assessed $1,000 on Each
of Seven Counts

Everett B. Thomas, former district
forest supervisor who was convicted
last week of classifying government ac-
counts, was sentenced yesterday af-
ternoon by Judge Wellborn in the
United States district court.
The sentence calls for both fine and
Imprisonment. On the fourth, fifth and
seventh counts of the indictment,
Thomas will serve one year on each
count, or three years in all, at San
Quentin. A fine of $1,000 was imposed
on each of the seven other counts.
Many False Entries
In passing sentence the court STA ted
the he had exercised much leniency and
had given due weight to the pleas OF
the counsel for the defendant, but the
evidence had shown that Thomas had
been making false entries for a period
of more than two years and had de-
liberately covered his defalcations in
a systematic manner.
The original sentence was to Folsom,
but the defendant expressed a desire
to be sent to San Quentin instead.
The case has excited much attention
at Washington and several govern
ment experts were sent here to assist
in the prepare ton of the evidence.
Appeal Not Likely
Thomas occupied the position of for
est supervisor and employed a number
of rangers. He had many opportuni-
ties for classifying accounts and accord
ing to the prosecution, had been using
government money for nearly three
years before the discovery of his pecu-
lations.
United States District Attorney Oscar
Lawler represented the government and
Davis, Rush e Willis and Jones Ss
Weller appeared for the defense. 1t is
not probable that an appeal will be
taken.

Approved on Same Day

approved on game Jay
81 also return to you herewith, with
out my approval, two demands in favor
of the same firm for refurnishing and
decorating the interior of the council
chamber and for furnishing linoleum
therefor, agsregating S671.S0 for SINH
lar reasons to those stated above.
These two demands were made pur-
suant to two acquisitions which bear
consecutive numbers and which were
made and approved by the council on
the same date, and demands for the
payments of which were subsequently
presented on March 5.
1.-THE only object in splitting this
entire demand seems to have been to
avoid the prohibitions of section POT of
the charter, forbidding the making Of
contracts exceeding $500 except in writ
ing and after advertising for bids"
Bids Not Advertised
not signed by any committee, although
such matters are almost invariably
handled by the supply committee, but
are marked as approved by the council
as a whole. Although the total con-
tract price for furnishing the council
chamber amounted to more than $4,000
no DlQS were advertised Tor. The Du1ld-
ing committee quietly took the case in
hand and privately asked Barker Bros,
the Los Angeles Furniture company
and the Mackie- Fredericks company
for bids. Barker Bros. were the lowest
and the building committee awarded
this firm the contract in nine different
orders, so as to come within the charter
provision requiring bids to be adver-
tised for contracts over $500.
When the mayors action became
known yesterday several members of
the council intimated that his refusal
to sign the demands was instigated by
a spirit of revenge because the finance
committee called halt on him recently
as ne was about to spend $1,000 for
fitting up the mayors office. The
mayors office now is fitted up in any
thing but a luxurious manner, and
compared with the costly chamber it
loks decidedly Anticipated and incom-
plete. In the mayors private office
the furniture consists of an old flat
top desk, few chairs and an old
lounge.
A few months ago Mayor McAleer
sent for a representative of leading
furniture house and told him to esti-
mate the cost of some new furniture.
The estimate was $780, but the finance
committee shook it's head and the
order was never carried out

MAYOR CALLS
IT SUBTERFUGE
SCORES THE CITY COUNCIL
FOR SPLITTING DEMANDS .
Refuses to Approve Barker Brothers
Claim for Furniture on Ground
That Charter Provision
Was EVaded

Mayor McAleer's last act before leav-
ing for the two weeks trip to the
Owens river valley with the board of
public works was to return to City
Clerk II, j. Lolande the nine demands
presented by Barker Bros. for the fur
nishing Of the council chamber and to
dictate a personal letter to the clerk
giving his reasons for refusing to sign
these demands. The letter is as fol-
lows
II return herewith without my APP
prevail seven demands presented by the
firm Of Barker Bros. dated March 5,
1906 and approved by the council this
day and attached respectively to seven
acquisitions numbered 1852 to 1858 in
elusive, My objections to these de-
mands are as follows:
Mayor States Objections
1.-THE city charter provides that no
payment can be made from the city
treasury or out of the public funds of
the city unless the same be specially
authorized by law or by the charter.
The payment Of these demands
would, in my opinion, be direct viola
lioil Oh Ine Guy Cnarler provisions re-
lating to the making of contracts by
the city. These demands show upon
, their face that on September %, 1905
contract was attempted to be made
with Barker Bros. by the city council
for the furnishing of the city council
chamber by ordering from that firm
eighteen desks 100 chairs and 226 yards
of carpet at the aggregate price of
$2243.75, and that pursuant to that order
the firm supplied the desks, chairs and
carpets so ordered and delivered the

charged from custody today.

MAYOR PRO tenn
TAKES OFFICE
SUNDERLAND NOW SUPREME
AT CITY HALL
For the Next Two Weeks He viii
Guide the Municipal Ship With
the Assistance of His
"Cabinet"

With malice toward none and cigars
for all, Theodore Summerland, presi-
dent of the council, and his red vest
yesterday morning took up the cares
of office laid down by Mayor Nc
Aleer. For two weeks Mr.. Summer
land will be mayor pro tenn, and dur
ing his term of office the doors of the
mayors office will be taken off their
hinges and none are so poor and loWly
that they may not have immediate
audience with the acting chief eXecu-
tive of the city,
Mr.. Summerland was clothed in
dignity-all except that red vest. His
long frock coat reached a little below
his knees, and instead of the necktie
of flaming carmine that he usually
wears, a modest tie of somber black
chung lovingly around his neck and
dangled down among the folds of that
red vest.
Task Not an Easy One
Only once before has Mr.. Summer
land held the office of mayor pro TEN.
That was during the absence of Mayor
McAleer on his annual vacation last
summer. Stepping into the shoes of
the chief executive of a big city like
Los Angeles and endeavoring to take
up the threads of the administration
where they have been dropped with
no previous coaching, is no easy task,
and Mr.. Summerland found this to be
the case before he had been in office
an hour. His first duty was to pre-
side at a meeting of the police COM
mission and on two or three oc-
casions his ready wit was all that
saved him from going up against it."
Realizing that the representatives of
the various newspapers, who are sta
toned constantly at the city hall. are
compelled by the very nature of their
business to keep a sharp lookout on

A Canadian Paradise.

Temagami Is shaped like an octopus,
with long stretched out arms, and its
shores are indented with deep circling
BAYS. island strewn and eliminating In
sharp points and curves that add to
the beauty of this magical scene. 1.-THE
lake Of deep waters" is the meaning
of the Indian word, and they lie very
deep and cool In their bed Of granite, in
stiffness a perfect mirror, in storm
darkly menacing, with foam edged
waves showing fanglike teeth. Being
a hundred square miles in area, Tema-
gami forms one of Canada's great nat
ural reservoirs. Mighty rivers from
the height Of land to the north flow
Into it. and 1t in turn feeds the streams
that flow southwark, carrying their
life giving waters through the forests
to the peopled lands below. There are
1.4OO islands in the lake, and the gov
ernment has included the whole area
in a magnificent forest reserve Of a
million and q half acres.-kate West

How cyanide Was discovered.

Scheele In 1873 laid the foundations
for the manufacture of cyanide OF po-
tassium. With prussiate Of potash for
its base, dried animal matter Of any
and all kinds was dumped into the su-
perheated vessels containing the pot
ash, together with iron filings and Dor
ings. A stonelike black mass resulted
from the cooling, and other processes
brought the final lemon colored crys-
tails which resulted from corporations
Of the solutions. From these crystals
prussic acid was evolved, Of which a
2 per cent solution Is the pharmaceu-
teal preparation, yet so powerful that
four drops will kill a large dog. A
chemist. putting a cyanide solution In
a gold lined dish in 1874, discovered
that the gold was dissolved in the
liquid. This was the beginning Of the
gold plating process by the use of cya-
hide and the further Involvement of
the poison came about in electroplat-
ing. in photography and IL treating re-
fractory gold ores.-Technical World.

damned Efnrera.

Few people have escaped jammed
fingers, and as the pain caused when
the finger is damned IN a door is ex-
cruciatIng In the extreme for the first
few minutes it Is well to know OF some
means of relief. The finger should be
plunged into water as hot as can pos
sibly be borne. This application Oh
hot water causes the nall to expand
and soften, and the blood pouring out
beneath 1t has more room to flow. Thus
the pain is lessened. The finger should
then be wrapped in a bread and water
poultlce. A damned finger should new
er be neglected, as it may lead to NOR
tification of the bone If 1t has been
badly crushed, and amputation OF the
finger must follow. damned toes are
usually caused through the falling OF
heavy weights and should be treated
In the same way as damned finger.

FrankIin On catching Cold.

1t Is well known, says the New YORK
Evening Post, that Franklin made
particular study Of colds and had MS
own theory about them, which we De-
lieve is pretty much the theory OF To-
day. One Of his assertions was that
catching cold does not come from mere
cold, but from unequal temperature
over the body and from undistriouteo
moisture. TO prove this he made a
number Of observations on occasions
when he did and did not suffer. A Few
Of these follow:
BY putting on a damp shirt on dry
body-yes.
By putting ON q dry shirt on a wet
body, though this vets the body ten
times more-no.
By sitting In a room where the floor
has been newly washed-yes.
By going into a river and staying
there an hour mo sheets SO wep-no.
BY wetting the feet only-yes.
BY wetting all the clothes through
the body and wearing them a whole
day-no.
BY sitting in a room against a crevice
yes.
By sitting as long in the open air
