Toledo. O., June 25.-In common pleas
court today Judge Kinkade imposed the
maximum sentence of S5, 600 fine and
one year in the workhouse on five ice
men guilty of conspiracy in restraint OF
trade.
The men sentenced are:
Joseph A. Miller, who was convicted,
R. A. Beard, r. c. Lennon, H. z.
Breining and Peter H. Waters, who
pleaded guilty. The Judge said the SEN
tences might be mitigated in the event
the men made restitution.
Hearing upon motions in arrest OF
judgement, can not be heard for some
time and the ice men will stand COM
mitted until the fines are paid or the
sentence otherwise disposed of.
The five men, all of them prominent
in business and social circles, were
taken to the country Jail to await the
making out of the necessary papers to
commit them to the workhouse, unless,
in the meantime, they meet Judge Kin
kade's requirements of restitution to
the public.
These men were indicted under the
Valentine antitrust law for combining
to restrain trade. Under the pretext
that the ice supply was much smaller
than in recent years, these dealers COM
bined and advanced the price from so
to 100 per cent. They were indicted
and one of them stood trial and was
convicted. The others entered plea OF
guilty. The sentence is the maximum
under the law. If they would escape
any part of it they must pay back to
customers all overcharges and must
agree to sell ice at the price prior to
forming the combination. The law pro-
vides for imprisonment as well as fine
and if the men go to the workhouse
they will be put at hard labor. Two OF
three of them are worth at least $780,
600, ee~

Washington, June 26. The two lead
ers, Quentin and Adva, have made
trouble in Cebu for several years. At
one time they took the oath Of ale
glance and were employed by the
American army as guides, but they
proved so untrustworthy that no de-
pendenee could be placed in them.
Commands were offered them by the
insurrectionists and the two leaders
violated their oaths and joined the enc

GOALS OF FIRE.
NiSkayuna,


All the way home from Sunday-school
Helen was trying to think of someone
upon whose head she could heap the GOALS
of fire" her teacher had spoken Of But
she had no enemies that she could call to
mind. She resolved to ask Roy what he
thought about it. Roy was Heen's
brother, and, being a couple of years
older than herself, she always went to
him when she wanted advice.
Roy, however, could not help her at all
on the enemy question; but he sensibly
observed, after thinking awhile, that he
didn't see why you couldn't help people
who weren't enemies just as well.
But the Goals of fire. Roy?' Helen re-
minded him, with a doubtful look
ooh, that's only a figure of speech
said Roy with the grown-up air that
Helen always admired IT'S the princi-
pie of the thing you've got to look at
you know, and that's doing good wherever
you can"
Helen supposed Roy must be right, but
somehow that didn't seem to be quite the
meaning the Sunday-school teacher had
wished to convey. She was still pulling
over it the next Afternoon, when her
mother sent her, after school, to the dress
makers, to have her new frock fitted
Miss Simmons was a pleasant little body
and had way with her that seemed to
invite the condolences Of perplexed peo-
pie; and almost before Helen realized it
she was telling the busy little dressmaker
all about her difficulty.
We'll" said Miss Simmons, with her
mouth full Of pins, q guess Master Roy
was about right. Helpfulness is what the
Lord wants of us, I expect; and as to
enemies, why, if you haven't got any of
your own-and I don't really see how you
could have, Miss Helen-there's always
plenty Of other peoples you can show
kindness to-"
Helen didn't quite understand.

A water-lily ceased to grow
Before it reached the air.
1t said, 1.-THE light I do not know;
To rise l do not dare
The waters parted one bright day
To let a sunbeam through;
1t kissed the lily's feet of clay,
And, 10, the flower grew
And when it reached the warm, sweet
air,
Above the mud and slime,
The sunbeam whispered, Learn to dare,
For knowledge means to climb.

well, it's this way" Miss Simmons
went on. There's heap of people in
this world that have done harm to some
body and are pretty miserable because
of it; and l expect if you should show
them kindness they didn't look for nor
deserve, that would be heaping Goals Of
fire. Now, there's an old lady upstairs.
in my second floor front-Mrs. Clarkson.
her name Island l guess she's in need Of
Goals OF fire, if anybody. She's all alone
in the world and nearly blind, and as
cranky and disagreeable as they make
EN-. She must have made things pretty
uncomfortable for good many folks,
in her time, I'm thinking. Spose you
try your hand on her?"
But I'd be afraid" protested Helen.
"Oh, she'll be nice enough to you"
Miss Simmons said, encouragingly. "She
couldn't well be anything else''
| So Helen went upstairs with Miss Sim
mons, and found in Mrs Clarkson very
lonely and unhappy old woman. She was
all alone in the world, she told Helen, ex-
cept for her tortoise-shell cat, Dick Whit
tington, and now she had come back to
die in the town where she had spent her
happy girlhood.
But you're not going to die" Helen
SAID, cheerily, though she felt very sad
ard sorry. Miss Simmons will take
gCtd care of you, and I'll come to see you,
if you'll let me, and before you know it
you'll feel like a different person. It's
being lonely that makes you so I'M
happy"
At the supper table that evening Helen
told of her visit to Miss Simmons's
boarder.
And MOTHER" she said when she had
finished, Mrs Clarkson says she hasn't
been able to read her Bible for nearly
| Il
seems to strain them So"
'Why doesn't she get a Bible like the
big one in our bookcase?" said Roy. 81
warrant she could read that all right"
Perhaps she hasn't money to spare for
one" observed Mrs Weston. Those
large, clear-print Bibles are quite expen-
sive, you know. But perhaps we might
lend her that one for awhile if you would
care to carry it to her."
why, mother!" exclaimed both the
children at once; and Helen added, in a
shocked voice, THAT was grandma's
Bible"
81 know, DEAR" Mrs. Weston said
softly, "but What do you think grandma
would wish us to Go? leave the Bible in
the bookcase, when it might give peace
and comfort to poor, lonely old woman?"
Helen's eyes grew moist. She knew well
enough what grandma would have wished
dear, kind grandma, who no longer had
any need Of Bibles.
So the next afternoon Roy and Helen
went together to carry the treasure to
Mrs. Clarkson. Dick Wilmington ran
under the sofa as the two entered the
room, perhaps fearing that Roy might be
like some other boys he had known in
his short cat-life; but Dick Whittington's
mistress looked up with smile of well
come.
This is my brother Roy, Mrs. Clark
SON." Helen said, glancing proudly at Roy
as she took the book from him, "and we've

mother thinks it will make you feel bet
