CONSUMER STUNG
EN-, Says Gas CO.
Claims Saloonkeeper Used Con-
trivance To Dodge Meter-Suit
Brought for Over $4,000.

A gas bill of over $4,000, which the
consumer declines to pay. is the cause
for the action brought in Judge Muir
phys court. Wednesday by the De-
troit City Gas Co. against George ].
SCHNEIDER, saloonkeeper At No. 1893
st. Antoine-st, The company claims
that for almost ten years SCHNEIDER
used gas for both heating and lighting
III his saloon and in living rooms
above, which by a clever contrivace
did not pass through the meter
In the bill of par ticulars on which
the claim is based SCHNEIDER is charg-
ed with using S,905.SOO feet Of gas
at so cents per thousand feet. He is
credited with S415.92 paid, and charg-
ed with interest. which brings his
total bill to $S,015.22.
The company claims that for long
time it suspected that SCHNEIDER was
getting gas in some other way than
through the meter, but was never able
10 make any charge, as the inspectors
were unable to get into the cellar The
company claims that the meter read
er was never able TO get at the meter
until after he had made several visits
each month. This coupled with the
fact that the premises were heated
and lighted, aroused suspicion. and
after several unsuccessful efforts to
search the place. search warrant
was taken out. Several gas men with
two detectives entered the cellar. and
after a long search. discovered, ii Is
alleged, an extra pipe arranged SO
that gas entered the building without
passing through the meter This pipe
was fitted. II is claimed. with shut.
offs and valves. so that SCHNEIDER
could allow as much gas through the
meter as he desired. In this manner
the bill was always small, and nearly
always at the same figure.
The company also charges that ma
tural gas fixtures were used. which
consumed twice as much gas as the
ordinary burners.

ment," Says Associate Recorder

No child under the age OF Is
years shall De admitted to this
court room during the trial OF any
defendant who Is charged with
felony; except, when said child is
called as a witness, or for identi-
hcation. in which case said child
shall remain in the court room
only while giving testimony or
while being identified.
Il shall be deemed contempt OF
this court tor any person 10 lnsti-
gate or procure the attendance or
child in this court in violation
of the above rule.
The above general order. which will
have a most important bearing upon
many emotional" defenses in the re-
corder's court, was issued Wednesday
b. Judge Connolly.
The Boyajian case offered a sample
OF the small child used as a bid for
sympathy. The melodramatic play In
which DR.. Boyajian and his little
daughter figured, brought forth stiff
rebuke from Judge Connolly
AT other times there has been ground
for suspicion that mothers, whose hus-
bands are on trial for grave offenses,
stick pins in their babies TO make
them cry at the appropriate time. for
the purpose OF arousing sympathy
Relative TO the new order, Judge
Connolly said:
The purpose of the enforcement OF
the rule is twofold-to protect these
immature minds from the demoralizing
effects that come from listening TO re-
citals or lust. bloodshed or robbery;
and TO protect the administration or
justice from species of strategy
which is becoming too common. name
ly having a defendants wife and chill
dren in evidence in the court room so
as to improperly influence the jury.
here are men who, when accused Of
crime, will hide behind their wives
skirts, and rush their babies to the
front to ward off the chastisement OF
justice. Misplaced sympathy, caused
by these dubious methods, is. next TO
the common practice of perjury, the
most prolific source of outrases TO the
majesty OF the law.
Il do not believe that the defend.
ants right TO public trial is violated
by this order Can ii be said that 4

C he crime kindergartens.
The charter provision is not broad
enough TO prevent the evil aimed ar.
Under its terms, parent or guardian
may bring an immature child into

eral powers Of the court TO protect the
integrity and purity of It's proceed

DEATH OF MRS.
 D. H. KEADLE
She Was ExhOrtihg All to Come to Revival When She Sank to Her
 Knees and Died.

Hot Springs, Ark, Oct. 30.-Whsn Mrs. o. H. Keadle, wife of a super anuated Methodist minister, was ex- horting those present at prayer meeting in Central Methodist church last night to stir up interest in revival service to be begun soon, she sank suddenly to her knees, and in few minutes was dead.
 Her husband, Rev. o. H. Keadle, was conducting the prayer meeting service, which was attended by the faithful of that flock last night. The prayer meeting had been particu- larly impressive service. Just before it closed the elderly wife of the min- ister took the floor and made an im- passioned plea for greater work for Christianity and the salvation of souls. She halted slightly in her remarks, there was a tremor of her body, and she soon sank ill a swoon.
 She was kindly administered to and hurry up messengers were sent for physicians, but Mrs. Keadle was dead within a short while. She was 63 years of age, and the life of both herself and her aged husband has been given to the work of Christian itv in the Methodist church circles.
