echoed and re-echoed by one after an
other of the spectators. Several threw
their hats into the air. others scrambled
upon chairs to look over the shoulders
of the crowd. The greatest confusion
prevailed.
Attorney Fairall of the defense, rails
ing his voice above the din, called out
to Judge Dunno:
Your honor, this cheering is a very
unseemly occurrence"
We'll" retorted Judge Dunno, with
spirit, IF we had sheriff worthy of the
name it would have been stopped in
stantly."
Sheriff Thomas O'Neill was standing
inside the rail- He turned to the court
and protested.
Nobody could have stopped that, your
honor" he said.
Special Agent Burns of the prosecu-
ton. led number of bailiffs and said:
Clear the courtroom, clear the court
room. y
Wild Delight In Court.
But only few of the hundreds and
apparently delighted men obeyed the
sharp order. Some of them were hustled
unceremOniously out into the Railways.
About 100 others kept their vantage
places around the counsel table where
Schmitz sat debating statement to the
newspaper men The dramatic at
mosphere was heightened by staff of
newspaper photographers who exploded
1ashlight after fashlight till the court
room was so filled with smoke that 1t
became sitting.
The sentencing of the convicted mayor
was in one respect without parallel IN
the criminal annals Of San Francisco.
Half a dozen times Judge Dunno was
interrupted by SchmitZ, who protested
in strong words against the delivery
of lecture instead of the pronouncemcnt
of Judgment He accused the court OF
unnecessarily humiliating him and Civ
ing opportunity for further humiliation
by the reporting of his remarks III the
press. Once replying to the prisoner,
Judge Dunno said: Such brazen eff
frontery was probably no more than
should be expected, and it was the duty
Of the court to bear it in patience
Lawyer Narrowly Escapes.
At another time Attorney Metson of
the defense interposed a vigorous objec-
ton in support of his client, Ito the
courts lecture"
Judge DUNES reply was that Mr.. Met
son instead of interrupting the proceed
ings, ought to be given a day in court
to answer the charge that he had at
tempted to tamper with the jury which
convicted Schmitz.
Nelson restraining himself calmly, an
swered in the same spirit, saying that
he was ready to answer any charge
that was made against him.
Judge Dunno warned Nelson that an,
other interruption would provoke a jail
sentence for contempt

SHOT; WHIPS ASSAILANT
JOHN BERRY, ST. LOUIS AERIAL IN
vENToR, PROVES vALOR.
Rests Demand of Former Judge R. B.
Haughton to Humble Himself
By Signing Apology.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 9.-Former
Judge Richard B. Haughton shot and, it
is believed fatally wounded Prof. John
Berry, an airship inventor yesterday
afternoon in an alley near Spring ave
nue. and Delmar boulevard, where Berry
had been asked by stranger to go to
repair mythical automobile.
Berry said he was shot after he re-
fused to sign a written confession on his
knees that he had called Haughton an
insulting na1ae over the telephone.
After Berry was shot he horsewhipped
into a crowded street car, and fought
him with his frsts. A policeman on the
car arrested Haught0n, and as Berry
stepped from the car he fell to the pave
ment unconscious.
At the city hospital Berry said: 81
quarreled with Haughton during the
worlds fair, when | was president OF the
Berry Aerial and Navigation company,
of which Haughton was director and
counsel. We planned to sail airships at
the fair, but our plan fell through. l
always believed the dissensions which
wrecked the company We're caused by
Haughton and | told him so. We had
frequent quarrels.
To-day I was asked by stranger to
90 into an alley and look over an auto
to see if he had been cheated in purchas-
ing it. I met Haughton, who walked up
to me and said:
"'Hello, Berry. 1 want you to apollo
gize for insulting me over the phone.
I've got a written apology, and you've
got to sign it, But l would not do So.
Then I'm going to shoot YOU said
Haughton.
$50, ahead l said. He leveled his
revolver at me and shot. Then he grabbed
a buggy whip, or maybe the other man
handed it to him-I'm not sure. l. took
the whip from him and beat him with it.
When I turned around the man who
lured me into the alley was gone.
The note is in possession of the police.
1t reads:
Hon r. B. Haughton: I fully and com
pletey retract every word I have ever said
against you and derogatory Of you. l most
humbly apologize for all such words, and
beg your forgiveness. and | unreseryedly
state | am a cur and scoundrel, and have
been attempting to defraud you.
At the hospital it was found that Ber-
rvs wound is of a type generally con-
sidered vital and physicians say he has
little chance to recover.
Haughton was released on $4,000
bonds

Grape-Nuts is the most scientifically

fectly snd completely cooked at the fac
tory and can be served at an instant's
notice, either with rich cold cream. or
with hot milk if hot dish is desired.
When milk Or water is used, little
sugar should be added, but when cold
cream is used alone the natural grape
sugar, which can be seen glistening on
the granules, is sufficiently sweet to
satisfy the palate. This grape-sugar
is not poured over the granules, as
some people think, but exudes freGn the
granules in the process of manufacture,
when the starch Of the grains is chang

The dockman wanted to divide the party
and make two trips, but against his will

of the men.

cred boat to search for the three miss
ing men. No traces of them could be
discovered.

4 HANGED At SAME time
Italians Pay Death Penalty For
Murder.

Lancaster, Pa. Especially -Four
Italians were hanged at one time in
the Jail yard of the Lancaster County
jail here. They were Anthony De-
lero, Stephen Carlui, Sivereo Rodelli
and Joseph Celione, and the crime
for which they paid the death PEN
atty was the murder of fellow
countryman, Plato Albamese, who
was killed for Offering resistance
when the four attempted to rob him
The men were taken from their
cells and marched to the scaffold in
a body, each one supported by a
priest.
They presented a firm front. ex-
cept Carlui, who wavered several
times, but braced up ON the scaffold.
All died from strangulation. On the
scaffold Delero, whose right name is
Delorenzo, made statement in
which the other three joined He
denied that they meant to commit
a robbery, and said Albamese at
tackled him with razor and that in
self-defense he shot his assailant,
that he called for assistance and that
Ceiione responded and, also in self
defense, stabbed Albamese a number
of times
On the night of August 80, 1906,
they entered a shanty near Gap, Pa,
occupied by 10 italian laborers, who
were asleep. One of the quartette
was stationed as a guard at the door,
while the other three awakened the
sleepers, and with drawn revolvers
and knives demanded their savings.
The amount secured was small, be-
cause the men had only a few days
before sent away their money. Plato
Albamese, one of the laborers, had
$50 on his person, which it seemed
was known to the robbers, and they
demanded it.
He denied he had any money,
whereupon they proceeded to search
his clothes by force. Resisting, he
seized razor and fought desperate
ly. In the melee. Albamese was shot
and stabbed more than 20 times.
The four made their escape and fed
towards Philadelphia. The wounds
about their heads and faces were the
means of their arrest soon after.
After the trial and conviction De-
lero and Celoine made a statement by
which they endeavored to save the
lives of the other two. The Italian
consul at New York interested him
self in behalf of the defendants and
saw to it that their defense was
properly conducted.

President OF Pittsburg Light Co.,
Says $4,000 Is Needed.

Pittsburg (Special). y. Another
scandal was started in official circles
here by the charge that Councils are
holding us an ordinance granting a
franchise and that $4,000 will be
necessary to secure its passage.
II could spend $4,000 and get
that ordinance throungh Councils
without any trouble. We offer to
Pittsburg compensation and cheaper
light and are willing TO place our
service on trial for twenty-five years,
and then be denied a renewal of our
franchise If we do not do what we
agree. / think we are Offering the
city enough and / don't intend to
spend one cent to get that franchise"

ment in discussing the franchise or
dinance of the Diamond Light g.
Power Company, pending in Coun-
ellis. Turner is president of the COM
pany, which has a substantial busi-
ness in the downtown section and
wants to extend its lines to serve
the entire county. The ordinance
got as far as second reading in Sc
lect Council, but Turner charges
that it is being held up for Interior
motives.
Turner will be called upon to ex-
plain his charges and 1t Is probable
that another official investigation
will be ordered that will rival the

tigation, for which one councilman
is under sentence to the penitentiary.

Justice Not Wanted.

A Nashville lawyer once had
client noted for his INSCRIPTIONS
business methods. The client lived
in small town, and bought and sold
country produce. If the price of
potatoes went up after he had con-
tracted to purchase the crop, he
would refuse to take them at the
market price. II the price went
down, however, he was surer than
death or taxes to claim them at the
prevailing market figure. Naturally
this policy got him into frequent and
bitter litigation.
On one occasion he had become In
volved in case based on a deal in
potatoes. The man who owned the
potatoes brought suit and the case
was taken before a local justice.
The lawyer conducted the defense
along purely technical lines and the
case was taken under advisement by
the justice.
The client was called away on busi-
ness in Chattanooga before the JUS
tice had rendered his decision, so
when the latter brought in verdict
adverse to the plaintiff. the lawyer.
in his somewhat unexpected triumph,
wired his client:
Justice has triumphed.
Immediately came back the startled
reply:
Take an appeal!"-Lippincotts.
