JUDGE c. M. YESTERDAY WILL
IMPOSE MAXIMUM SENTENCE

TACOMA, March 25.-Judge G. M.
yesterday oday denied motion made
by the attorneys for Joshua Klein for
a new trial. and announced that he
would sentence Klein, Thursday, of
this week. In making this announce
ment today, the court declared Klein
would be sentenced for simple ''as-
saul" and would probably be given
the maximum sentence for that Of
men and $500 fine.
IF Klein" sa d he, had intended to
do bodily harm 20 Miss Culberson, he
would have done so at the time OF
the assault being committed. He had
the power in his hands
The cour. held that Klein had Con-
fessed to simple assault, and upon this
he would be sen enced. Charles e.
George, Klein's leading attorney. is
well pleased, and Klein himself was in
vo atile spirits, happy and laxative
over the outcome. There is no ikeli-
hood of an appeal. Motion for new
trial was made chiefly on the strength
of statements made by Prosecuting
tOrney McMurray in his argument,
in which he dec ared that If Klein had
been in Kentucky when he committed
the offense he would have been filed
fun of lead. George contended this
statement prejudiced the jury against
his client, and .Oday Judge yesterday
held the words were highly improper.

years in that crop.
The first crop of clover may be
taken off, but the second crop should
never be taken off, but should be left
TO rot on the ground to enrich the soil
While the pear orchard Is In clover
1t is beneficial to hoe OF grub around
each tree in the spring and keep the
soil loose around II. this destroys
many Insects and also keeps them from
nesting there.
Each spring and fail wash down the
trunks and larger limbs of the trees
with a solution OF soft soap and water
about half and half. This will destroy
Insects and keep the bark smooth and
healthy.
Keep down all suckers from around
the roots and remove all sprouts from
the trunks. The pear. however, needs
but little pruning If the trees make a
strong and vigorous growth for sew
eral years. unless there is a tendency
to grow too much in height at the
expense Of the width.
Low hends are more desirable. How
ever, when pruning is necessary II
should be done to conform to tho hab-
Its and natural shape OF the tree.-
