CALLED FOR JURY DUTY.
Department Clerk May Lose Money
if Not Paid on Leave.

Henry 4. Whallon, a clerk in the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor, re-
siding in Virginia. has submitted an in
teresting question to the department for
decision.
He was recently summoned to serve
two days on jury in the state, whose
laws do not exempt government clerks
from jury duty. He asked for a special
leave of absence, pointing out that the
service demanded was public duty,
which he souid not avoid.
The department is now considering the
proposition whether or not to grant the
leave with full pay as clerk, or charge
him with unavoidable absence and let
him rely upon the state to pay him for
his time. The fees he would receive as
juror would probably amount to about
80 a day, considerably less than he
receives at the Department of Commerce
and Labor.

Consumption of Wood.
From Van Norden Magazine.

1t is not generally known that at the

States use about three times much
timber as their forests grow. The gov

a resulting Improvement equal to that
made in Prussia. where no more wood is
cut than the forests produce, the forests

News of the tragedy spread through
the business section of the city yester-
day afternoon. Many inquiries were
made at police headquarters about the
affair.
Frederick l.. Rice. whose arrest had
resulted from Johnsons complaint. was
at police headquarters at the time the
fatal shot was fired. Johnson's attor
ney was waiting for him about that
time. and he also had a business en-
gagement at police headquarters. De-
tective Hewlett, who had arrested Rice,
was in the place of business of john
son, talking to Johnson's son. He was
called to the sidewalk and told of the
suicide.
Recent business operations of John
son and Rice, it is said, involve many
business people. The tangle caused by
the pawning of many articles of jewelry,

JOURNEYS IN BAGGAGE CAR
Did Not Relish Idea of Paying $40
for His Trip-Auto Ride
to Station.

John r. Early. alleged leper. accompa-
MED by Envoy J. c. Darlison of the Sal
walton Army, reached Jersey City this
morning shortly after $50 o'clock on the
Baltimore and Ohio express which left
this city last night at o'clock.
IT was not necessary for the men to
leave the baggage car in the railroad
yard and attract attention on their way
to the ferry. such as was the case when
Capt. Seaver accompanied Early there
last July. AT that time they were given
the trouble of making explanations be-
fore the New Jersey authorities would
permit them to reach the ferry.
This morning there was no delay of any
kind Early and his Salvation Army
friend walked from the train and crossed
the river without attracting the slightest
bit of attention, passengers on the train
not even knowing of the identity of the
occupants of the baggage car. Early and
Darlison separated shortly before day
break, the former to go to the office of
DR.. l.. Duncan Buckley of the Skin and
Cancer Hospital, 531 Madison avenue
and the latter to call on friends before
returning here.
Interview With Counsel.
Getaway day with Early was an event
full one. Judge Egbert c. Everest, his
counsel. completed arrangements for his
departure in the forenoon. and in the
afternoon he went to the quarantine sta
ton and held a lengthy conference with
him. Early did not relish the idea of
having to pay $40 for his trip to New
York.
When he went away before he paid only
the regular fare for his attendant and
himself but this time the railroad COM
panies would not treat him as an object
of charity.
Early had hoped he would be able 10
send his wife and little ones a good
share of the $196.SO pension money, and
was somewhat disappointed when in
formed of the sum of money he would
have to- pay for the railroad trip. There
was nothing else that he could do. how
ever and the money was paid. His
check was fumigated before it was turned
over to a representative Of the Salvation
Army to be cashed..
Shortly after O'Clock last night Early
was taken in an automobile to the station
and quickly transferred to the baggage
car. Chairs had been provided by the
Salvation Army captain. and the railroad
officials saw that the car was heated.
Judge Everest left here yesterday after
noon, reaching New York about o'clock.
1t was his intention to see DR.. Buckley
and resume his trip to Plattsburg last
night.

SHEEPHERDER COMES
IN CONTACT WITH FIST
Clerk of Volunteers Hotel Re-
sentS Offensive Language
With His Big Nit.

The church militant scored heavily
Sunday afternoon when. rs lis iustru-
mcnt, Billy HAYES. clerk at the
hotel of the Volunteers Of America in
Commercial street, landed with clcuched
fist on the mouth Of T. W. Smith, 4
sheepherder, who had come 10 Salt Lake
City looking for Job that was not
quite so lonesome.
After the church militant had its in
nings the police had theirs. Hayes was
arrested by Policeman Harry BetZ The
Volunteer was released on SO bail TO
appear before Judge !. VI. Bowman in
the city court Monday afternoon.
Hayes explained volubly TO Desk
Sergeant Spears why it was that he
smote Smith, the teachings OF the Holy
Writ to the contrary notwithstanding.
Hayes said that he simply could not
stand Smith S language.
Smith tried TO tell his side Of the
story, but he had too much Saturday
Joy water aboard to make himself
ineligible
Policeman Bctz said that Hayes fol
lowed Smith up Commercial street and
struck stinging blow from behind on
the shcepherdcr g mouth
