COUNTY JAIL Is
AGAIN OCCUPIED
5. HI. KENOYER IN FOR TWENTY
DAYS FOR vAGRANCY
Man Who Came Here as q Patent
Button Peddler Proven to be q
Gamester, With No Visible Law-3
full Means OF Support.

- apparently about 80 years of
age, who has had the misfortune
to lose his left forearm, and who has
been about here for the past two or
three weeks in company with anoth-
er young man named Hayes, spend
ing most of his time in the saloons,
was arrested Wednesday on COM
plant of Prosecuting Attorney Wynn
charging him with vagrancy. Thurs
day the complaint was made more
specific, alleging that Kenoyer has
no visible lawful means of support
and that he is a gamester. The case
came up for hearing before Justice
Blair Thursday afternoon. Quite
number of witnesses were placed on
the stand by the state, including sew
eral young men of the town, some of
them minors, who testified that they
had played cards with the defendant
for money and whose evidence showed
conclusively that gambling is COM
mon in all of the saloons here. Wit
nesses introduced by the defense tes-
tilted that Kenoyer sold patent but
tons when he came here and that he
paid for his meals and lodging. It
was not shown, however, that he has
any reputable means Of support and
the fact that he is "gamester,"
within the meaning Of the law, was
clearly established.
At the close of his argument in be-
half of his client Attorney Irwin ask
ed the justice to permit the defend
ant, in the event of a decision adverse
to him to leave the town and county
forthwith. The law, however, makes
no provision for such judgments, and
Justice Blair, convinced Of the truth
Of the states contentious, sentenced
the man to twenty days imprison-
ment in the county jail in default of
good and sufficient bond for $50 that
he will not, for at least three months,
again lay himself liable to prosecution
for vagrancy. Prior to KeEoyer's
arrest Wednesday he was called into
the prosecuting attorneys Office and
told to leave town. He insolently
refused and defied the officer and
then proceeded to rally to his sup
port the habitues Of the saloon which
has been his abode since he came
here.
The prosecuting attorney deserves
credit for the stand he has taken in
the matter and it is to be hoped that
he may be able to secure sufficient
evidence to warrant him
in instituting prosecutions against
other disreputable characters.

SUMMER RESORT
SWEPT BY BULLETS

Helsingfors, Aug. 1.-The fight be-
tween the mutineers and the loyal
troops was waged during the night
The cannonade was heavy the firing
of the guns furnishing an awe-inspir-
ing spectacle to the thousands lining
the points of vantage on Observation
hill.
The loyal minority seemed to COM
mand the forts on Mich olas Island
which were engaged in a duel with
Sandhamm's formidable masked bat
teries. AT 10 o'clock this morning
they were exchanging broadsides at
ten minute intervals. Order has been
restored at Skatudden island where
110 sailors and eleven citizens have
been disarmed. No cruisers are visi-

A naval squadron including the bat
tleship Slava, is reported to have sail
ed this afternoon from Reval for
Sveaborg. The telegraph building
barracks and cathedral have been
badly damaged by the fire of the H.
inch guns. There was panic all day
yesterday among the summer resi-
CO. owing the fall of stray bullets and
shells which caused number of cas-
ualties among them. For more than
/ week revolutionsts have been dis
tributing among the troops parla-
mentary manifestoes and ii Is report
! ed that on Sunday 1,500 soldiers took
an oath to fight on the side of the
people.
News of the revolt has caused the
greatest excitement here, especially in
view of the support that mutiny of
4 the ere AS of the warships was pro-
ceeding at Cronstadt and that the rev.
olutionsts were working hard to per-
suade the troops there to mutiny and
refuse to fire on the warships. Pre-
cautions were hastily taken by the
authorities at Cronstadt. The breech-
| blocks and even guns of the war
ships were removed while detach-
ments of troops were sent on board
other ships Heavy cannonading is in
progress at Sveaborg, showing that
the fight for the possession of the

HAS HIS

At LAST
0LC0TT LAW FIRM
AGAIN DISMISSED
viii Rely Upon ''Unwritten'
Law to Secure AcquittaI on.
Charge Of Killing Stanford
White,

New York, Aug. 1.-Yleding to the
persuasion of her son, Harry Thaw,
Mrs. William Thaw today dispensed
with the services of the firm of BLACK,
Olcott, Gruber & Boynge, whom she
had retained to conduct the defense
Of the young man on the charge Of
numbering Stanford White.
A day or two before his mother'5
arrival from Europe, Thaw dismissed
his counsel, and placed his affairs In
the hands of his personal attorney,
Clifford w. Hartridge. Mrs. Thaw's
grst act on landing was to re-engage
Black, Olcott, Gruber & Boynge.
Since then Mrs Thaw has been unre-
hitting in her efforts to persuade her
son to acquiesce in her views and per-
nit her to dictate his defense. In
this she has failed. This Is taken to
mean that his plea Of mot guilty
will stand, and that emotional in-
sanity and evidence going to show
justification under the "unwritten
law" will be relied upon to secure ac-
quittal.

to each republican voter to contribute

out of every ten sends us a dollar, we
will have enough to meet the ex-

swered: Prosperity and Roosevelt:
and you may add that the record of
the last congress will also be made
part of the argument to the voters
We have every reason to be proud
of that record"
