Washington, June 4-Much good is
expected to result from the new re-
striction issued to army officers in
charge of recruiting. Changs,s are
made in the methods of examination,

man with an unsightly facial blemish.

what has been casually described as
the soldierly appearance of the indi-
viduals i'm the ranks These are de-
formities which may not prove dis
qualifying factor when to comes to en-
listment. but it is desired that the
army shall have soldiers with "natty'

optimism Is undisturbed even in the
face of the governments actions to
restrain the railroads from advancing
freight rates 'The business OF the u.
s. is too big for a little matter like

to a question regarding the railroad

There is no cause for alarm on the
part OF anybody. / don't think 1t Is

Prisoners in County Jail Fashion
Key Out Of Spoon Handle to
Open Door
THREE THOUGHT IMPLICATED
Impression Of Lock Secured on Cake
Of Soap and Key Almost Complet-
ed-File That Was Used Has
Not Been Located

What is believed to have been well
laid plan at Jail delivery was thwarted
by Sheriff Byers at the Houghton
county bastile this morning. when upon
investigation he discovered a roughly
formed key. made from the handle of
spoon, by use of n file, in the bunk
of Zitique Zetti, who upon the opening
of the court entered a plea to the
charge of forgery and has been await
ing sentence. The key, though crudely
made, bore every resemblance to the
key to the lock in the cage door, which
If opened would have let the prisoners
out into the corridor, from which es-
cape would probably have been very
easy. When it was discovered this
morning, the key was nearly complet-
ed.
Sheriff Byers has been suspicious OF
such an attempt for about two weeks
and has kept a man on guard at the
Jail at night. The precaution led to the
Investigation and discoveries of this
morning. 1t is supposed that Zett
took an impression of the lock upor
cake of soap. Two other prisoners
Hjalmer Jankila, who was yesterday
found guilty of larceny and John John
son. who was sentenced this morning
are also supposed to have been impli-
Gated in the attempted delivery. Sc

PRIMARIES IN TENNESSEE.
Warm Contest on for Democratic Nom
nations at Election Today.

Nashville, Tenn. June 1.-The party
primary system of nominations Tor
high offices is undergoing novel test
in Tennessee today. where a state
wide primary is in progress FOR the
purpose of naming candidates Tor gov
ernor and other state officials, repre-
sentatives in congress, judges of the
sunreme court and the court of civil
appeals. and members of the legisia-
ture.
The interesting feature of the entire
contest is the split in the democratic
party between the supporters and OPP
moments of Governor Malcolm II. Pat
terson. who is a candidate for renom-
ination. The fight hinges on the acton
of Governor Patterson I'm pardonlhs
Col. Duncan B. Cooper, convicted oil
the murder of former Senator Car
mack. on the same day that the state
supreme court sustained the sentence
of twenty years against Cooper.
The action of the governor calico
forth bitter protest from the Judges
of the supreme court WHeIeuPoh wv
Patterson and the democratic party
machine Immediately began to lay
plans to defeat the reelection of th'
three judges who would not agree witt
the governor in favoring the anti-Car'
mack faction.
Heretofore. the judiciary nomina'
tions had been kept out of the genera
primaries. but Gov. Patterson at one
ordered that three candidates I'm sym
pathy with his cause be nominated u
todays primaries to defeat the thre
independent justices.
| In retaliation the independent dem
ocrats, or those opposed to the gov
ernor's course i'm respect to the Judl
ciary, held a mass convention In thi
CITY two weeks ago and nominated al
independent ticket for the state su
preme court and the court of civil ap
peals. This means two sets of demo
cratic candidates i'm the field for place
on the bench. The republicans OF TN
state have given their assistance to IN
independent cause by refraining fror
nominating opponents to the thre
democratic judges Gov. Patterso
wants rejected.
