WARDEN CHARGED WITH GRAFT
Onlcial of Michigan P~enitentiary IL
Accused of Holding Up


JACKSON, Mich, Jan. a.-Warden Arm
strong of the Michigan penitentary was
arrested this afternoon on charge of solic-
iting a bride. The complainant is General
Fred W.. Green OF Ionia, president of the
Acme Furniture company which has a
chair contract factory In the prison. The
company wants to change its contract so
it can manufacture chairs from paper fibre.
The company declares It has been OBJ
structed by Warden Armstrong and Gen
eral Green says he suspected the warden
Of opposing the company's plans in order
to extort money.
Justice Russell signed a warrant for the
warden's arrest on a complaint signed by
General Green. The warrant was served
at the prison. General Green declared that
the numbers on 800 in currency taken from
Warden Armstrong Tailed with the num-
bers OF bills he declared he had given the
warden yesterday at a secret conference.
At this time he said, the warden agreed
to use his influence with the prison board
In favor OF the company for $500 cash and
500 per month for three years. Warden
Armstrong was released on bail.
General Green declares that yesterday at
the Otsego hotel he secreted behind fold
ing doors, H. A. Gilmartin, a reporter. and
A. d. McBirney, a prospective stakeholder
In the furniture company so that they
might hear any conversation between
Warden Armstrong and himself. Green
said he met the warden by appointment
and that they went at once to the room
where the two witnesses had been posted.
The warden maintained silence, Green
says, when he asked him what he would
take for his vote and his influence with
the board.
Then, said Green, he suggested to the
warden that they each write down a figure
on paper and see how closely they agreed.
Green said that he himself wrote down

How to Test a Newspaper
Advertisement

A storekeeper who permits dust and cobwebs
to litter his store windows is no more wasteful than
he who uses space in a live, progressive newspaper
merely to repeat a few hackneycd phrases in con-
nection with his name and address.
The newspaper is the live merchants most
valuable display window. In it he should take care
to exhibit by pictures and word painting his newest
and most attractive stock. .t..4 .ar.
There are always plenty of things that every
merchant can utilize to create and further the i'm.
preston that he is strictly up-to-date; one of his
most valuable assets.
Timely advertising inspires confidence in the
readers of a newspaper that the merchant is wide
awake and ready to meet all emergencies.
1t is not uncommon to see in provincial news
papers such absurd instances of untimeliness and
public announcements of unprogressiveness as Ice
Cream Freezers advertised in January or Heating
Stoves in July.
Yet to be timely does not necessarily mean to
make definite plans on the spur of the moment.
Successful general advertisers forecast conditions,
according to the seasons of the year and the general
trend of events, and make plans months ahead.
The retailer should act on the same lines.
Such a procedure yields much more satisfac-
tory results than a patchwork campaign, constructed
from day to day in hit-or-miss fashion.
Should the merchant wish to take advantage
of some unusual event, it is very easy to substitute
a piece of timely copy in harmony with what has
appeared and what is to follow.
TimelinesS involves an accurate insight into
the trend of public opinion. But the public mind is
tickle and in taking advantage of prevalent condi-
tons, the unnecessary mourning of prejudice must
be guarded against.
See if your advertisement is in harmony with
the times, the season and the day.

Hope TO Fina Coal Near RAPID City.

RAPID CITY. 8. D., Jan. S1.-(special.)-
After years OF search for coal in the coun-
try lying east OF the Black Hills. It now
looks as If It was only a matter OF a short
time when coal in large quantity would be
found in this locality. A tunnel or incline
was sunk about one mile north Of the city
in a thick strata OF carboniferous shaIe
that crops out in the bottom of a gulch.
Small pieces OF coal were found imbedded
in the shsle the entire length OF the tunnel
and the shale when tested in a stove was
found to burn quite freely. Some large
chunks were on exhibit yesterday at the
Hotel Harvey and attracted considerable
attention. Experts claim that by continu-
ing the tunnel in which this was found It
would surely open .up a body OF coal OF
good quality. Large deposits Of coal are
being mined in Wyoming to the west and
1t is also found on the north and the south
of the Hills. Those who have investigated
the matter are positive coal exists here
and that it needs only intelligent prospect.

DRIVING CLUB RACES.
Memorial Day Opening Big Event
Marathon of Five Miles in Pros
pect

The Gentlemens Driving club. whose
president is A. d. Lathrop and secre-
tary F. E. Beckwith, made a start on
the seasons activities by a meeting
this week, when plans were laid for
the annual opening date, which is Me-
mortal day. A number Of new mem
bers have been added to the rolls and
the club starts out with more enthi-
siasm than ever.
Within a day or two it is exported
that the stables out at the Fair
Grounds will have some horses in
them, and the club is expecting TO
have well filled classes for their Me-
mortal day races. A new feature in
classification for entries is to be adopt
ed, which 1t is believed will result in
the easier filling by making the 2.2O
class include as eligible all horses from
2.19 to PA. In the same way horses
from 2.25 to 2.30 will be eligible for
the 2.27 class.
The club has also decided to cater
to the taste for Marathon running by
putting on distance race, with purses
that will make it worth while and the
proper officials to make it q success.
1t is not thought to have the contest
ants cover the Marathon distance, but
probably 1t will be a five mile race, so
that the distance runners around here
can take the tip to begin to get into
form. There will probably be other
athletic events to make this early
opening the best yet.
