others, No doubt many others. Gre.
nadl county is too full Of patriotic
people not to have at least a half

four years. Certainly there appears
to be little probability Of any job 90

Politics in the city of Grenada is
also ~agitating the rats in the political
corn crib. The election in the city
comes off in the early part OF the next
year. Besides Mayor Tatum. who
will no doubt not willingly stand from
under the JOB, is EX-Mayor Doty, who
las stated 20 friends that he would
again permit himself led up to the
cheese stand. From what the writer
can gather. Cowles Horton is also
flirting with the mayors race. He is
at least smiling in that direction.
City Marshal Hall is another willing
one. He is willing to sit up of nights
watching for burglars and to peram-
buiate the streets ter 9iSturberS and
collect the city's "wads." Watt
Richardson seems to think Hall ought
to have a rest and Les. James is al
most OF the same opinion. And there
others for other things. at least

diamond ring he was wearing and any
money that he might have In his pockets.
The ring Is valued by Van Meas at $500
and he had $500 in his pocket. but he
begged the men not to strike him again
and promised to hand over his ring and
money IL they would let him get up. He
was pulling OF the ring when the sound
OF some one coming along the street
caused the three men to bolt.
Van Ness grabbed Davis and clung to
him until Policeman Wall OF the West
Sixty-eighth street station arrived. At
the station house Davis admitted that he
had been arrested before. but refused

HeadQuarters.

Mayor Mcclellan. accompanied by Cor
poration Counsel Pendleton. rode down
to Coney Island yesterday afternoon
and looked the place over. They inspected
the dance halls. moving picture shows
and the games OF chance and skill along
the Bowery. After two hours inspection
they drove away without remark. and the
Coney Island folks are still wondering
il they are to expect more trouble for to-
morrow.
While the Mayor was walking through
the Bowery his chauffeur stopped in Surf
avenue in front Of fire hydrant He was
told to move on by Mounted Policeman
Thomas Lynch and he replied that he
was driving the Mayors machine. Lynch
told the chauffeur that that was all the
more reason why he should obey the law,
and the chauffeur saw the point.
The Mayor also visited the Brooklyn
police headquarters and with Capt.
Kuhne inspected the system Of setting
down prisoners records. The Mayor
looked at the finger print collection and

senting the Elks lodges OF Cincinnati
and Newport, Ky, and was fast In all
departments. The players handled hard
infield hits with apparently as much cer-
tainty and ease as il they had been play
ing in the glare Of MONDAY. What little
difficulty there was experienced in
judging balls fell to the outfielders. and
those players missed but two out OF a
possible fourteen hits to the outield dur
ing the seven innings played.
President Garry Hermann OF the Gin
cnnati Reds said after witnessing the
game:

but will say I am much surprised at
the ease with which the game was played
tonight Under improved lighting it
will grow more popular

A PERILOUS BALLOON TRIP.

thrilling balloon voyage in half a gale
early this afternoon. landing at Gilman

the Massachusetts, and the trip lasted a
little more than two hours. coming from
Rutland, VT.
The start was made at 1910 A. III. from
the park in Rutland under auspicious
circumstances, although q stiff northwest
wind made II improbable that the object
OF the flight would be accomplished.
This was to cross the White Mountain
range and land In Maine.
The early part Of the fight was enjoy
able. but when fifteen miles from the Con-
necticut Valley. a little after II O'Clock.
the balloon struck an adverse current
and fell at the rate OF 1000 feet a minute.

The Connecticut Valley was crossed

in the direction OF the wind shifted the
course more to the northeast, and shortly
before 1 O'Clock. with Lake Wlnnepesau-
kee coming into view, Pilot Van Sleet
decided that II would be hazardous to
attempt the crossing. So much ballast
had been expended in checking the un-
expected fall that 1t would not have been

Flushing, N. Y, Jan. 15.-After
reviewing the evidence for % hours
and taking IA ballots before all were
agreed, the jury in the trial of
Thornton Jenkins Hains this after
noon found the prisoner not guilty
as principle with his brother Capt.
Peter C. Hams, Jr., in the killing
of William E. Annis.
For the second time in his life
Thornton Hams has been found not
guilty of the charge Of murder, as
he was acquitted of murder in shoot
ing companion named Edward A.
Hannigan in an open boat in Hamp-
ton Roads II years ago.
Rarely in any court Of law has
such a demonstration been witness
ed as that which occurred VIXEN the
Jury made known its verdict. The
packed court room Of spectators rose
as one man and cheered and applaud
ed with such mighty vigor that the
gaval falls of Justice Crane on his
desk could not be heard.
Officials Of the district attorneys
office in Queens county are quoted
as saying that the verdict in this
case probably means that Captain
Hams will never be brought to trial
and that he will be surrendered into
the care Of his family or the federal
government.

TEDDY HAS BEEN CAUGHT.
Government Pays for His Barber and
Wife's Messages.

Washington, Jan. 15.-President
Roosevelt's taking Senator Tillman
to task for abuse Of the franking
privilege and the general row be-
tween the president and congress
over secret service Investigations Of
congressman has led to the rather
startling revelation that the presi-
dents barber is on the rolls cf the
government as an accountant in
the navy department, and that while
not accounting anything he is get
ting a salary from the government
of $1,000 year for shaving the
president and occasionally cutting
the presidential hair.
1t has also developed that Mrs.
Roosevelts messenger is on the pay
rolls OF the bureau of printing and
engraving, and that he draws now
1920 a year. The only thing he en-
graves is an occasional footprint on
the sands of time. Both the account
barber and the ngraver-messenge
went to Oyster Bay last summer with
the Roosevelt family.
The revelations have caused a
considerable stir here today. The
members of the house appropriations
committee who replied last week to
the presidents charges against them
express regret that they did not
know of the presidents misuse of
the civil service when they spoke.
