land and Mrs Bowers from the Wo-
mans society, and Misses Rosalyn and
Marie Summer, Louise Hipp, Messrs.

planned and beautifully carried out by
Miss Rosalyn Summer as leader, and
Messrs. Charlie Barre, Clifton Kreps,
Charlie Shealy and Our returned mis-

$1,000.
This is the 25th anniversary of the
Synodical society. Our local society
gave about $500 to all purposes, SIS
toward the jubilee fund. =
AS usual it took the banner. Up to
last year the banner was given to the
society that as a whole gave the most.
We won it on that count several times.
Last year, to give the weaker societies
a better chance, convention decided to
give the banner to that society giving
the most per capita, and Newberry has
won on that count also.
Miss Gertrude Simpson has been so
faithful and efficient as field secretary
that she is continued in the work. She
has organized As societies, women's,
children's, young peoples and cradle
rolls.
Mr.. s.irewalt's exhibition of curios
from Japan, China and India attracted
a full house.

itual part of our convention programs.

conducted by Mrs. Kate Eargle, subject

convention were much enjoyed and the

TRASHY. READING
CAUSED HOLD Up
Judge Brown Sentences John
Schaetz to San Quentin
for Four Years

OAKLAND, May 1S.-Reading dime
novels, full of blood and thunder, and
detailing in 1urid language bold crimes,
was responsible for the holdup of
Adam Kraft's saloon by John Schaetz
according to the story the latter told
today. He was given four year sem
tence in San Quentin by Judge Brown
Schaetz told Judge Brown that on
the night of the holdup he was COM
ing home from work at the Palace
brewery in Alameda, and was thinking
about a story of robbery and crime
that he had begun to read and had not
yet finished. He was hurrying to get
home so that he might resume his
perusal of the work when he passed
Krafts saloon, on Park street near the
tidal canal bridge. Irresistibly. he de-
clared, he was led to crime. Almost
unconsciously he wrapped his handker-
chief about his head, pulled his pistol
from his pocket and strode into the
bar room. The occupants were ordered
to hold up their hands, and the robber
secured $5.25 from the cash register.
Schaetz said that he was accustomed to
carry pistol because he frequently
went home late through sparsely In
habited territory. He declared that
this was his first criminal venture. In
this a number of we'll known citizens
bore him out, testifying to his good
reputation.
Schaetz was shot as he made his es-
cape from the saloon, the bartender
slipping out on him from side door.
His wound was serious, and for weeks
he lowered between life and death at
a hospital under the surveillance of the
police.
Judge Brown was impressed by the
story of his good character told by
Schaetz friends, and he said in pass
ing sentence, that he might have con-
sidered placing him on probation II
it were not for the heinous nature OF
the offense to which Schaetz pleaded
guilty.
