I Thirty DAYS
FOR A WIFE
BEATER
STORY OF A BRUTAL ASSAULT
TOLD IN COURT.
Husband'Was Beating His Wife When
the Cries Of Their Little Gin
Attracted Outsiders.

The case of disturbing the peace
preferred by Mrs. Lewis Ringle
against her husband was continued at
an afternoon session of police court
Monday, the defendant being found
guilty and sentenced to thirty days on
the rock pile.
when frst arralgned, Ringle plead
ed not guilty, claiming that he had
done nothing which could be legally
construed as disturbing the peace.
Mrs. Ringle was then asked to tell her
story. She stated that Ringle had been
loafing for considerable length OF
time and consuming more or less Og-
den liquor. Monday night he came
home about 2 o'clock and demanded
50. which he thought she had In her
possession. His demands were re-
fused. whereupon he grabbed her by
the face and. forcing her on to the bed.
struck her repeatedly, and threatened
to finish her" as the witness express
ed 1t Their little daughter was In
bed at the time, and her cries, mingled
with the screams of the mother, at
tracted the attention OF the entire
house. j. c. Gasberg, proprietor OF the
Colonial block, soon appeared upon
the scene which had the effect OF end
ing Ringles attack upon his wife. The
police subsequently arrived and ar
rested the husband for disturbing the
peace.
Mrs. Ringles face still shows the
results OF her experience. Proprietor
Gasberg was called and stated that he
had been awakened by the screams OF
Mrs. Ringle and. upon going to their
room, had discovered the battle In
progress as related He said Rinsle
threatened to attack him but the ar
rival Of the police prevented fresh hos
tilities.
The defendant admitted that he had
gone home late and had demanded
money from his wife. He stated. how
ever, that She had begun to abuse him
and strike him with strap. To de-
fend himself. he had pushed her on
to the bed and scratched her face,
The court was apparently impressed
with the woman's story and proceeded
TO give Ringle severe lecturing.
There ought to be severe pen
atty for YOU fellows who don't know
how to treat wife. l have never
been able To stick one Of you for more
than a week or two before somebody
had YOU pardoned out In fact, don
expect that You VIII be in Jail moro
than a week or so before your wife OF
someone gets you out. You ought to
have six months at hard labor. You
ought TO be sent to the penitentiary
In this case / will make the sentence
thirty days straight"

Paid 81 so Per Ton.

The office force Of the Amalgamated
Sugar company is busily engaged in
preparing the annual report of It's va
rivous factories for the season just
closed. Such Is the magnitude OF this
work that nearly two months are re-
quired In which to complete the de-
tails of the report.
General Field Superintendent Job
Pingree states that the company is
anxious that all prospective beet rails
ers for the coming season confer re-
garding the matter at once and sign
up their contracts for the year The
statement recently published to the
effect that the rate paid next year for
sugar beets would be S475 per ton
was an error. as the price now con-
templated will be as formerly, $3.50
This figure. 1t Is understood. Will be
paid regardless of the quality OF the
beets, as has been the custom.
General Superintendent L. r Eccles
states that the company lost consid
erable the past season through the
low quality of part Of the beet crop

amount of sugar obtained from the to

been had the beets been up to the
standard. This means 100000
pounds Of sugar
The extremely wet weather, coming
on at time when the beets had prac
tically attained their growth, prevent
ed the crop from ripening, 1t takes a
very small shortage in sugar and pur

Creating Permanent Tariff
Commission at Salary Of
$4,000 a Year.

indianapolis, Feb 6.--Representa-
tive Fowler of New Jersey, addressed
the tariff commission convention in
session here today In advocacy OF n
bill outlined by himself which pro.
poses the creation of tariff commits
sion of fifteen members at a salary
of $4,000 per year.
In urging this bill, Mt Fowler adj
mitted the difficulty in the way of It's
enactment into law, and to that end
he recommended that every CONNER
cial body in the United States should
be organized into a campaign club
and through sheer force OF voting
power, compel your members OF con-
gress to commit themselves to the
program" He declared that neither
the house nor the senate will Yield
an atom OF its power or prerogatlye
any moro than the kings of England
did, unless driven to do so by an over
whelming, consuming public senti-
ment, which you alone can create"
He referred to the voluminous liti-
cation growing out OF the customs
dispute and on this point said:
This litigation, which keeps an
army of judges. lawyers and govern
ment officials constantly busy. has
cost millions OF dollars to the govern
ment. many more millions to the peo'
pie directly interested therein. and
In the end must come from the pockets
OF the people. With the exception of
the members of the bar hardly sin

MUIR DERER RS
Of CARMACK
ON 7 RIAL
Widow Is First Witness
E. B. Craig Tells Of
CoOper's Threats.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 16.-Filled
with dramatic Incidents and marked
by scenes that bordered on the sen
sational. was the first day OF the ac.
tual trial OF the Cooper-Sharpe case
Whether Col. Duncan B. Cooper, Rob
in j. Cooper and John Sharpe killed
Former Senator E A. Carmack in sell
defense or as result of a conspiracy
is the issue. Scarcely had the attor
neys been raped into order-the Judge
having broken two good gavels In the
work thus far-than the first sensa
ton was produced.
Mrs. f. S. Carmack. widow OF the
slain man, was half carried and as
sisted into the room. She was In
mourning. Her knees gave way as she
neared her seat and she was moaning
as she was placed in her chair.
Her little SON. Ned, aged ten, stood
by his mother. patting her shoulder
and trying TO keep back his tears
Great surprise was caused when the
state called Mrs. Carmack as It's first
witness. She was almost carried tc
the witness stand by her kinsman
Frank Lander, who succeeded her hu5
band as editor of the Tennesseedn
After a few questions were asked she
became hysterical and was excused.
Ks Mrs Carmack left the stand
young Ned Carmack turned sQuarely
towards the defendants and fixed upon
them look full of hatred.
Next came the testimony of Mrs
Eastman. who seized the revolver said
to have been found near the dead edh
tors body and re-enaCted the tragedy
She was severely croSs-examined, but
the attorneys failed to weaken her
testimony.
Nashville, Feb. 16-Just a month
within a day from the date the FIRST
attempt was made to secure jury
Cooper and John d. Sharp. for the
murder of ex-senator E w. Carmack,
was begun today. The sheriff had n
large force of deputies on hand, and
when all the chairs were occupied, ad-
mission was denied to late arrivals.
Judge Hart made one exception TO
the ironclad rule "Any ladies who
wish TO attend" he remarked, to the
sheriff, "are to be taken care of If we
have to throw out a few able-bodled
men"
Just before the attorney genera!
rose to begin his statement. there
came stir from the door behind the
bar The crowd pushed aside and a
slender figure In sable robes, leaning
on the arms OF women friends, was
assisted Into the room. She was
scarcely able to walk and sank into
a chair behind the attorneys for tho
state. II was Mrs, Carmack
