JAIL NOISY; ELDERLY
WOMAN REQUESTS BAIL
Hearing on Probation from Five
Year Sentence Pending

That Mrs. Gertrude briggs life and
reason are threatened by her detention
in the county jail, pending the hearing
Of an application for probation for the
c me of forging the signature of John
]. Char-ock, who was a Palms ranch
er, to a lease for ten years of 1877 acres
of land, was the assertion made yester-
day to Judge Davis of the criminal de-
partment of the superior court by her
attorneys.
After lengthy proceedings in court,
including two trials and consuming
man, months IF time, Mrs. briggs, who
is 60 years old, was sentenced to serve
five years in prison for her offense. Her
attorneys then filed an application for
probation, but no report on 1t has been
made to Judge Davis.
Now it is alleged that her health is
being impaired and that the constant
blows of a hammer, resulting from
repairs being made on the building
where she is held are threatening her
reason.
1t is asked that she be given her
freedom on bail pending the hearing of
her probation application. Judge Da-
Wis took the matter under advisement

PAINTED CIGARETTE
CAUSES WAR ON PICTURE
Woman Opposes Purchase of a
Painting by Chicago

CHICAGO, July 30.-A painted cigar
ette may be the cause of depriving the
city of Chicago of a portrait of the late
Frederick Freer, one of the most
famous of local artists, who died sew
eral years ago.
The cigarette is shown in the portrait
held between the fingers Of the dead
artist, a wreath of light smoke curling
up over his hand. The portrait was Of
fered by Mrs. Margaret Freer, the
artists widow, to Charles L. Hutchin-
son of the art institute.
The portrait, it is said, was tenta-
lively accepted when a member of the
committee, accompanied by Miss Lucy
Page CASTOR, viewed 1t as it hung in
the art institute. A sudden opposition
against the picture arose, based, It is
said, on the cigarette which the painted
figure held.
Miss CASTOR is said to have led the
fight against the picture, asserting that
the influence of the cigarette would be
harmful to generations to come who
would gaze on it if the city purchased
the painting.

DEMOCRATS ARE UNITED
16-Because the Democrats of north
ern and Southern California are abSo-
lutely united In the present fight, and
are cooperating strenuously and sys-
tematically in a manner that was i'm
possible in previous campaigns because
of conflicting interests.
17-Because the new direct primary
law, unsatisfactory although it be gives
the Democrats several advantages they
never had under the old convention
system; enabled the voters to put up
their own candidates. and has created
political conditions heretofore unknown,
which afford the state Democracy an
opportunity to become established on
solid and satisfactory basis, and to
promulgate and enforce the fundamen-
tai principles of our party in a most
effective and patriotic manner.
18-Because the machine is afraid OF
popular sentiment. 1t does not dare
to resort to its old-time tactics, and
under the new direct primary law is
unable to turn the tricks" which
achieved such results for it in other
days: hence it Is now powerless to off
set the great work being done by the
states Democracy, and by its stand
ard bearers, III Ille IuleESSt VI JULIET
government.
49, Because the Democratic councils
and conferences no longer are poisoned
and evilly influenced by the interfer-
ence, pernicious activities and pseudo
arguments of traitorous s. P. tools
and bosses. Hence the Democratic con-
science can, and does, assert itself
freely and earnestly, and the Demo-
Gratis are guided by wisdom instead of
selfish wishes, by principles instead
of professional politicians, and by hon
est convictions instead of selfishness,
ambitious bias and misconception.
90. Because we have no important
contests on until after the primaries,
and will then be prepared to wage the
most vigorous and effective battle in
the history of the party; we will be at
our best at the TIME when we should
be-during the last few weeks of the
campaign-when the men who are now
trotting about the state in continuous
outpour Of oratory will be fatigued
and Intellectual, the public weary of
their noise and nonsense, and the DEM
ocrats fresh in the field with facts and
figures which the Republicans are
afraid to give them. The last word is
as good as the last laugh, and we in
tend to have both.

ID HE nrSt OF inc nNe DaseDall games
n between the $40 champions of
the American League and the
star aggregation to feep the Athletics
on edge for the worlds series next
week will be played Mt Shibe Park this
afternoon. Although the games are
more for practise for the Philadel-
phians than for anything else, they are
attracting considerable attention be-
cause of the high-class players who
compose the ~all-star team. James
McAleer, of the Washington Club, was
managing the all-stars. He said today
that the team he has organized can.
with a little practise in playing to-
gether, clean up" any other team now
on the ball field, and that he will win
the series from Connie Mack's cham
pions.
Ty Cobb, Who is one of the big at
fractions of the all-stars, will not play
in the opening game. Manager McAleer
received a telegram from him this
morning, dated Kingston, y. Y, to the
effect that while motoring to this city
he lost his a. and would not get here
until this evening. Schaeffer, OF Wash
ington. will take his place in the field
today.
With the exception of Barry, at short
stop, the newchampi ons will have their
regular team OH the field. Barry has
a badly bruised thumb and probably
will not play until the worlds series
begin. McInnes will take his place.
Manager Mack will not permit one
pitcher to go the entire route. but will
use three of them three innings each.
Manager McAleer has arranged o game
between the two teams in Washington
on Friday.
Mail Demand for Tickets.
The mail demand for tickets for the
first two games in the worlds series Is
so great that the representatives of the
national commission have announced
that there will be no public sale of re-
served seats. More than 27,000 applica-
tions have been received for the 1900
reserved seats for the two days. The
only public sale of tickets will be of
those for the bleachers and temporary
field stands. There are more than 5000
the day of the game. In %disposing of
the reserved seats the club manage
ment and the national commission have
decided that P~hiladelphians will be
given preference, so there is small
chance of non-residents getting tickets
for the first two games except through
scalpers. Extraordinary efforts are be-
ing made to keep the pasteboards out
Of the hands Of these industrious people.
