TOMMY HAD HIS JOKE.

But Probably Something Happened
When Visitor Had Left.
One evening Miss Passe stayed to
dinner and Tommy, as a great favor,
was allowed to have dinner with the
company. Growing restless at des-
osrt, he was sent out of the room, but
In few seconds he returned with
little dresden clock from the sitting
room mantelpiece.
Gracious, child" exclaimed the
mother. what mischief are you up to
now?
Coin to try speriment," replied
Tommy with Importance.
Miss Passee Uttered. THE dear lit
tie fellow is going to try an expert
ment." she gushed. How clever of
him"
While Miss Passee was speaking
Tommy had carefully placed the clock
on the table in front of her. With a
mysterious gesture he laid his finger
on his lips and enjoined silence. No
one stirred.
After about two minutes Tommy's
strained expression relaxed and he
clapped his hands in exultation. "It
goes!" he cried triumphantly; at
goes! You were wrong, papa" Tom
my's father said nothing, but looked
apprehensive.
"Of course 1t goes, child" laughed
Miss Passee. "What MADE your father
think 1t wouldn't"

simply, "he said your face would stop

According to the advices received

FRANCE AND GERMANY NOT ACT.
ING OPENLY AT MOROCCAN
CONFERENCE.
LACK OF CONFIDENCE is APPARENT
ENJOYS OF LESS INTERESTED
POWERS NOT HOPEFUL OF
AGREEMENT.

Algecfras, Spain, JAN 22.-Behind
the screen of amiability that enyelops
the relations of the ENJOYS of the
powers to the Moroccan conference
rising feeling of distrust is observable,
due seemingly to the unwillingness of
both France and Germany to define
their positions beyond reaffirming now
somewhat wearisomely their adher-
ence to the open door, the sovereignty
of the sultan and the integrity of his
territory. The French delegates in
all their conversational reconnais-
sances with their opponents have been
unable to learn precisely what is the
position of Germany, nor apparently
have the German representatives been
able to ascertain the joint intentions
of France and Great Britain. Extreme
caution and lack of confidence have
begun to destroy the favorable at
mosphere for negotiations which was
created by the courtesies and assur-
ances of the first day. There is a feel
ing among the ambassadors of the less
interested powers that trouble is in
sight. The Moroccan delegates have
become conscious of this and take sat
isfaction therefrom

The Few Men Arrested For Committing
Crime are Receiving the Maximum
Punishment Allowed.
YOUNG AND OLD ARE BEING PUNISHED

Chicago, Jan. 22.-The law laid an
iron hand during the day on offenders
of the class who have terrorized Chi
cago recently by their armed hold-ups
and attacks on women. In one case
an octogenarian in spite of the plea Of
his attorneys that his life race was
nearly run, was sentenced to ninety
nine years in the penitentiary. In an
other court three youths under nine
teen years of age were sentenced to
prison for life after having been con-
victed of an armed robbery.
No mercy because of his great age
was shown Nicholas Holland, when he
was found guilty of attacking a little
girl. Although eighty-six years OF
age he was given a sentence that, If
he could live that long, would free him
from prison at the age OF 1S5.
Peter Brady, Joseph Hase and Law
renee Roscoe were the youths sen
fenced to the penitentiary for life. The
life sentence was inflicted under THAI
portion Of the statute which provides
such Imprisonment when revolver:;
are carried in such attacks. The three
boys were convicted of eight robberiesi

CHARGES OF INDIFFERENCE.
Made Against American Officials in
Porto Rico.

Made Against American Officials in
Porto Rico.
Washington, Jan. 22.-Some broad
charges as to the indifference of AM
erican officials in Porto Rico to the
wishes of Porto Ricans were made by
Mayor Robert o. Todd of San Juan in
a hearing before the house committee
on insular affairs on the proposed bill
to reorganize the insular government.
Mayor Todd charged that the six Am
erlcan members of the executive coun-
Gil, who are also the heads of the de-
partments of the insular government,
do not consult the five native members
Of the body and do not even invite
them to meetings OF the council This
body is both executive and legislative
In its functions and stands in the re-
lation of senate to the house of dele
gates of Porto Rico. Under the pres
ent government organization the
eleven members of this body are ap-
pointed by the president Of the United
States and it is required that only
five of them shall be Porto Ricans.
Consequently the natives insist their
representation is wholly inadequate
and they desire they be granted a
senate to be elected wholly by the
people instead Of the council.
