Last year we secured one carload Of Del

in small lots in Chicago and large Eastern
cities at 40 per cent more in price than 9TH
er varieties we handled at that time. Who
ever had them last year, have repeatedly

NEED NOT COME BACK.
No Requisition secured for John
Maxwell.

Unless he sees fit to come back OF
his own free will and accord, John
Maxwell, the contractor who is charged
with contempt of court, Will not come
back for punishment. After the dis
turbance at ST. Joseph, Mo, where
Mrs. Maxwell caught her husband in
the company of another woman, bench
warrant for Maxwell was issued by
Judge Dana of the district court He
is charged with, contempt OF court IN
failing to turn over money he received
from the city to his bondsmen, who
were left holding the sack on a sewer
contract. Sheriff Wilkerson went to
St. Joseph after him. and he refused to
come without requisition. Today WIKI
erson telephoned County Attorney
Schenck to prepare requisition papers
and send them to him by a deputy.
and wired back that he could not get
a requisition for the offense of con-
tempt of court. To get a requlsitlon,
the county attorney must certify that
the crime has been committed. The
county attorney in this case holds that
the contempt charge is in the nature
of civil action, and that he Is with
out authority to act.
The contempt proceedings against
Maxwell are the result or his unfin1Sh-
ed sewer contract. He entered into a
contract with the city to construct
went his bond. Later he threw up the
contract, and the bonding company I'M
dertook to save the bond by finishing
the work. In March the city paid Max
well $4,000 on his contract, and a week
later he was ordered by the court to
pay this money into court pending a
settlement of the suit brought against
him by the bonding company. Instead.
Maxwell took the money and went to
ST. Joseph.

So Luther McCIelIand Escaped a Jail
Sentence.

1t pays to have job in escrow,
even while under arrest Such is the
experience of Luther McClelland, col
ored. This morning McCle1land and
his partner, Abby Mathews were tried
in the court of Topeka for robbery.
About q month ago, they entered Au-
gustin Alba's chile resort near Tenth
and Kansas avenues. jumped on the
night waiter, one Aurelis Romas, and
robbed him of a revolver and so cents
in cash. The complaint was amended
to a misdemeanor, and the defendants
entered plea of guilty County At
torney Schenck then remarked that
as Mathews was a person who toiled
not. and had never worked, he should
get the big end of the punishment.
and McClelland. who had job at
the time of his arrest and could get
it back again. should be dealt a bet
ter hand. Acting upon this sugges-
ton. Judge Simon sentenced Mathews
to SO DAYS in iail and $40 fine, and

DIDN'T RUN OVER BOY.
Henri Strawn Explains How Auto Ac-
cident Happened.

Henri Strawn, the photograp her,
who was arrested for running over a
negro boy at Eighth avenue and Clay
street a week ago, has made a state
ment concerning the accident. While
going home in the auto at speed of
about 10 miles an hour, he saw the
conductor on the street car standing
at Eighth and Clay, run around the
end of the car and supposed he was
chasing boys off the car. AS the auto
mobile passed. Clarence Clark, one of
the boys, jumped out from the end
of the car onto the footboard of the
automobile He was thrown violently
to the pavement but Immediately got
up and stood rubbing his arm. Strawn
was in hurry to reach the bedside of
his little boy, who was then dying,
and seeing the colored boy get up,
thought that he was not seriously in
jured, and did not stop.
Il did not run over the boy" said
Strawn today. He jumped onto the
auto, and it looked to me like he was
chased off the car platform by the
conductor. Furthermore, the boys
arm was not broken, as reported
