SENTENCED DESPITE
APPEALS FOR LENIENCY
Confessed Forger Must Serve Term in
Prisor - Wife and Friends
Make Plea for Light
Punishment

| c. r. Howes the man who pleaded
guilty to forgery several days ago, was
| sentenced to five years in San Quentin
yesterday morning by Judge B. N. Smith,
after Attorney f. M. Spencer had made
hard fight to secure a probation sentence
! for his client.
| With his face buried in his hands the
convicted man listened to the reading of
the affidavits of his friends and his wife
as they were read by Attorney Spencer
| in an effort to prove the young man had
led an upright life previous to October of
| this year.
| Many of the testimonials were from
business men in Portland for whom
Howes had worked.
A telegram from Mayor Harry Lane
of Portland stated Howes was of good
family and of previous good reputation.
There was also an affidavit from the gov
ernor of Oregon stating that Howes was
from a good family and asking the dis
trct attorney to be as lenient as was con-
sistent with his duties.
Most touching of all the testimonials
was the pitiful appeal of the sick wife in
Portland. addressed to THE Judge Who
Tries My Husband" 1t was a personal
appeal for pity. During the reading of
this letter the prisoner put his hands to
his face and sobhed.
Il am sick and l need him. Let him
come to me, judge. He is only a boy-2l
years of age. If he committed a crime he
did 1t for me because l needed help. He
has been so good to me-
Detective Hosick was on hand and tes-
titled Howes confessed to him of having
passed forged checks in Portland, Seattle
San Francisco and Los Angeles. He had
twenty-three checks on his person when
captured by the police.
IF this We're a single offense / would
be inclined to consider the appeals of the
friends of this young man." said Judge
Smith, but his offenses have been so
numerous and so inexcusable that the
court must impose a sentence"

TINY PRATTLER PLAYS
WHILE MOTHER TESTIFIES
Baby of Woman Suing for Divorce
Interests Judges and Spectators
by Romping About the
Court Room

With her pretty baby playing at her
feet as she sat on the witness stand in
Judge Bordwell's court yesterday morn
ing. Mrs Ida May Briggs told the story
of the neglect of William Gaskell Briggs,
from whom she seeks a divorce.
The woman claims that for some time
her husband paid nothing toward the supS
port of herself and the little child, and
that she has been forced to rely for sup
port on the charity of her brother and
sister~in-law.
AT times the childish prattle of the baby
would rise above the harsh contentious of
the attorneys and officers.
The couple were married in El Paso and
liver together happily for time. Then.
Mrs. Briggs asserts, her husband aban-
doned her and stopped contributing to her
support. She came to California and went
to live with her brother.
Later Briggs came to Los Angeles,
where he is said to have been employed
in pool rooms and barber shops.
Mrs. Briggs charges her husband with
being gambler and a man of bad habits.
Judge Bordwell took the matter under
advisement.

played at Haskell and other western In
dian schools. This is true in some cases,
but is it necessary that Carlisle bar out
every player except those who have never
seen a football before coming here?
Haskell oc eupies about the same relative
position to Carlisle as Ursinus college
does to Pen 5ylvania, and yet Pennsyl-
vania is not criticised because a mem
ber of her team played several years on
the Ursinus team before entering Penn.
AS a matter of fact, most of the Carlisle
players have been developed here at Car
Isle, and the average experience before
coming here has been practically nothing.
Houser, who played three years at Has
kell is rne only Carlisle star who ever
obtained hi- knowledge of the game or
his reputation at any place except right
here at Carlisle.
ut has been said that Carlisle played
men under assumed names. Such state
ments are entirely false, A great many
students at the school have two names,
one being their tribal, or Indian, name
and the otner an English name which
they have taken. Some may be common
ly known by one name. while enrolled
under another, and it has been a matter
Qf choice with them as to whether their
Indian names or their English names go
in the lineup, and no deception whatever
has ever been intended.
Another criticism which has been made
is that some members of the team are
Los Angeles herald., 1907-12-15

attending Dickinson preparatory school
and Dickinson college in Carlisle. This
is true, but when the system of Indian
education at Carlisle is explained / be-
lieve no just criticism will be made in
that regard. The Carlisle idea of Indian
education he's been to encourage the In
dians TO nirgle and compete and asso,
ciate as much as possible with white peo-
pie, in that way learning their ways Of
living, doing business. farming or house
'keeping. Cnder the outing system
which is feature of the school, nearly
all Of the students are placed in country
homes during the summer. where they are
employed, the boys at farming and the
girls at hol ework. During the winter
there are between 200 and 800 who remain
out in good homes in New Jersey and
eastern Pennsylvania, working for their
board and attending public schools.
These are regularly enrolled students at
Carlisle under the rules of the school
and are looked after by an outing agent
for the boys and an outing matron who
keeps in touch with the girls. Following
out this plan there are a number of stu
dents at Carlisle who show the requisite
ambition and desire for knowledge who
are permitted TO TAX special work at the
Carlisle Commercial college. Conway Hall

and regulations. the same discipline and

1.-THE only real criticism that can be
made of Carlisle football methods is the
| fact that men have played on the team
| In some instances more than four years.
| The term / which students enter Car
Isle is five years, unless they graduate
sooner, nd they are encouraged to stay
even more than five years if it is neces-
sary to graduate Many come to Car
Isle without any education whatever, and
some even without knowing the English
language, and it is not uncommon in such
cases for students to remain here six or
seven years Not having had any athletic
evils to contend with,S the authorities
have never prohibited the student from
playing on the team as long as he was a
regular bona fide student. However,
since there has perhaps been some just
criticism in this regard. the authorities
will no doubt, before the next football
season, make a rule which will prevent
any student from playing on a school
year term for which he enters. This will
remove the only cause for criticism that
exists in Carlisles athletics.
1T is .ot intended here to defend Car
isles method, as no defense is needed,
but only to explain as best ! can con-
ditions as T. ey exist for the information
of the public. If Carlisles methods are
not liked. no institution is compelled TO
compete viii. the Indians, but when they
do compete and the Indians come out on
top it is, mighty poor craftsmanship for
the supporters of the beaten institution
and some of the SO a week molders of
public opinion to come out in the papers
and belittle and throw mud at the vctors.
In closing / want to saw the Indians
are always rated at the end of the season
with college cams, and Carlisle has had
men picked for all American teams.
There has been no question raised about
classing Carlisle with colleges in ath-
letics, and there probably never would
be if Carlisle ranked always below the
big fellows This year, however, al
though the same conditions exist here as
for the last ten years. there has been a
great clamor raised that Carlisle should
not be considered because of eligibility
rules, etc. But the only reason for not
considering the Indians is because they
are so near the top. Nobody doubts but
that they would be duly considered and
ranked as usual If they were among the
also rams. The Carlisle boys have done
remarkably well this season, better than
they ever did before and probably better
than they ever will do again, and they
deserve every consideration instead of
the knocking and sidetracking that has
been handel out to them"
