JANITOR NOT JAILED

Bob Sturgeon, the janitor at the
court house, was rather alarmed
Tuesday afternoon when the sheriff
placed him under arrest and refused
to tell him what he was charged with.
A guilty conscience Is terrible thing
to have, and Bob was apparently
worried trying to think which of his
misdeeds had come to light.
The sheriff escorted his prisoner
to the District Court. where Judge
Bryan occupied the bench. The pris-
oner having brought to the bar,
Judge Bryan stated that certain
charges had been preferred against
him; that he was accused of having
kept the court house absolutely clean
of having attended to seeing that II
was kept at a comfortable tempera
ture, and of being uniformly agree
able to everyone.
The prisoner by advice of council
plead not guilty and waived a jury
but the Judge after hearing the evi
dence found him guilty as charged
The prisoner being again brough
to the bar Judge Bryan sentence
him to wear a pair of diamond mount
ed gold cuff links that had been pull
chased by the court house officials
Covered with confusion and blushe
the prisoner was taken from the rooi
| to commence serving his sentence.

FIRST TRIAL
OF new Liner

LIVERPOOL, Sept. with a full
bine Cunard liner Lusitania will leave
liverpool tomorrow morning on her
maiden trip to New York The Lusi-
tania presents many novel features
and on her first trip she will carry a
number of government engineers and
experts representing practically all the
big transatlantic lines, who are desir-
Gus of seeing for themselves how the
mammoth ship will acquit herself on
her first trip across the sea.
The begin with, the Lusitania will
afford the first real test of turbines as
applied to the fast transatlantic fiiers.
The Germans and others have been ex-
perimenting with the turbines and
have seen them in use in small craft
and In large vessels like the Carmania
and the Allan liners, but the Lusitania
is the first monster steamship to use
them for the development of great
speed.
In addition to her turbine equip
ment the Lusitania presents many
novel features. She has accommoda-
tions for 1920 passengers and a crow
of 500. Family suites, elevators. and
telephones, nursery, gymnasium, Turk
ish, vapor and needle baths are special
features. Regal suites consisting of
two bedrooms, a dining room, recep-
ton room and a bathroom have been
provided for those who care to pay the
price. All the apartments are ten and
a half feet high and furnished in as
costly and luxurious style as in the
best New York hotels.
One of the striking features of the
ship is the great dining hall, the full
breadth of the vessel, with a colossal
dome reaching up to the topmost deck
and exquisitely decorated by artists of
note. Another novel feature is the
arrangement by which all the state
rooms have their bedsheets warmed by
electric bedwarmers.
The Lusitania is 7S5 feet long and
has breadth of SO feet. Her cost was
$6,250,00O She is not only a floating
city of the most luxurious type, but if
the calculations of her builders are
correct, she will be able to establish a
new speed record for the passage be-
tween Liverpool and New York.
