Man Loaned His Auto to Brother and
Got Into Trouble.

New York. March 16-Don't lend
your auto. 1t may cost you a matter

Brady, New York banker, who has
been directed by a supreme court jury
to pay $1,000 to Benjamin Friebaum,
a lad who was hit by Brady's car some
months ago. Brady had loaned the
car to his brother and a hired taxicab
chauffeur drove it. The verdict, how
ever, was returned against the owner
of the car.

SISTER PREVENTED THE PRISONER FROM
PLEADING GUILTY TO SECOND DEGREE MURDER

Kansas City, July 1S.-Only his Sis
ter's intervention prevented Ward
Mower from pleading guilty to a
charge Of murder in the second de-
gree in the Wyandotte county district
court this afternoon. When court
opened at 2 o'clock John A Hale,
chief counsel for the man who had
confessed to the murder Of Neil Nc
Coig, asked the judge If he would ac-
cept such plea from the prisoner.
THAT state has no objection" Mr..
Taggart. the prosecutor. said, III the
court desires to accept such plea "
IF you are guilty and desire to
plead guilty to murder In the second
degree you will be permitted to do
so," Judge True said to Mower.
A Sisters Plea.
At this point Miss Deborah Mower,
sister of the accused, rushed forward
in the court room. She threw her
arms around her brother as he stood
trembling before the Judge and ex-
claimed:
Ward. 1 know you didn't do it,"
That settled it with Mower.
Defiantly he remarked:
Il won't plead guilty"
Sister Would Not Yield.
Miss Mower, who had sat in the
court room at Mowers side. had often
expressed the belief that her brother
was guiltless. She waited patiently
for hours while the attorneys were
telling Mower that the evidence
against him was such that his con-
viction by the jury was certain. But
she did not yield. A few minutes be-
fore court convened she was sitting
crying at his side.
"Oh, Ward, know you didn't do
It." she said time and again.
Then when Mower was called be-
fore the Judge and was told the could
plead guilty she interferred.
Call the next witness" Judge True
said.
The county attorney then called
William Hobin, newspaper reporter,
to tell of the trip with Mower over the
path of the murder.

PRESENT UNREST or PARSEES IN INDIA
UNEXPECTED FROM THEIR PAST HISTORY

London, July 1S.-Among the var
ious manifestations of Indian unrest
10 one which has appeared in a some
what unexpected quarter, namely.
among the Parsees. This community.
which in 1901 numbered, in British
India, close to 100000 persons, is de-
scended from those followers of Zorro
aster, who, after the battle of Naha-
wand, in 651 A. D.. fed to India from
Khorassan to escape the prosecutions
of the Mohammedan conquerors.
They settled for the most part
along the west coast of India, and
their descendants Of the present day
have made themselves known no less
by their industry and love Of peace
than by their intelligence and liber-
atty. Some two-thirds Of the Par
see community live in Bombay alone
and visitors to India notice their fair
more dusky brethren.
In past years the Parsees have
stood in the intermediate position be-
tween the British and the natives Of
India, but with distinct leanings to-
wards the former. OF late, however.

wave Of reaction against European
influences and ideals which has been
