DOUGLAS H0MES|CK
 ID G0 ID THE PEN
He Wanted the Longest Sentence the Court Could Confer.

Tucson, Ariz., Nov 21.-(Special)- William Douglas who was arrested for the burglary of the Southern Pacific depot here and who after stealing a number of railroad mileage books and secreting them at the stockyards in Phoenix where an officer following the directions in his confession. recovered them. was today sentenced by Judge Campbell to serve fifteen years in the Yuma penitentiary.
 Previous to receiving sentence Douglas addressed the court at some length. He imparted the information that he is now F years old and a na- tive of Scotland, and that he has been in America twenty-five years. Of that time he has spent twenty three years in one penitentiary CT another, He has served in New Mexico, Colorado, Cal ifornia, Indiana and Arizona. He says he suffers intensely when at large of what is known as prison nostalgia" !" which, he proceeded to explain. is prison homesickness. Whenever he is out Of prison there are but two courses open to him. One is to work and the other is to steal. As he is constitu- llOAitllN OpBbStu lO hlllS llt llctS Ap steal and the temptation to do so is made irrisistible by his homesickness for the inside of a jail, for he is never content elsewhere. He concluded his remarks by requesting the court to give him the maximum sentence the elasticity of the law would permit.
 Douglas is the same man who rob bed the Mesa City postoffice a few years ago. of a registered parcel con- taining several thousand dollars, and a few months later gave himself up to A. w. Galpin at that time assistant postmaster in Phoenix. He pleaded guilty so candidly that his story was disbelieved but he finally established its truthfulness and got sentence in Yuma which he claimed was at the time very much appreciated as he was suffering of an incurable disease and wanted to go where he could have medical attention.
