OLD MAN WAS ARRESTED, BUI
WAS LIBERATED WHEN 1T
WAS FOUND HE WAS A
MAN OF MEANS.
HAD BEEN HIT ON HEAD
And Was In Bad Shape When Taken
In BY Officers, Who Investigated
His Case and Took Him to
Hotel For the Night.
A Stranger.

Last night a white man, stranger,
was arrested at a livery stable in
Old Town. He was found asleep in
a horse stall, resting in the feed
trough, according to report. He was
in bad shape, also, when the officers
called to get him. Some one had
struck him on the head and about
the face. At first it was thought he
was drunk or drinking, but this was
soon dispelled, for the man was per-
fectly sober. He was escorted to a
hotel and put to bed.
When the officers got hold of the
man a search revealed the fact that
he was man of means, that he had
enough ready money for his immedi-
ate needs, and ON his person was a
bank draft or money order, made
payable to himself, for $4,000.
Why he chose a horse stall instead
of bed for his nights lodging has
not been explained.

the butterfly and from the fragments
he decided that the species was alto

ON CHARGE OF LIBEL /
Secretary Of Merchant Marine
League Arrested

Washington, April 6.-There was a
sensational turn in the house inquiry
into the ship subsidy scandal when
John A. Penton, secretary of the Mer-
chant Marine league, was arrested on
an indictment charging criminal libel,
based upon charges preferred by Rep
resentative Steenerson of Minnesota,
author of the resolution under which
the Olcott special committee is inves-
tigating allegations that two lobbies
are at work, one to further subsidy
legislation and the other to put OBJ
stacles in it's way. Mr.. Penton had
just concluded testifying before the
special committee and was leaving
the house Office building when he was
taken into custody by two local detec-
tives. He was conducted to the Office
of the United States attorney, where
he gave bail in the sum of $500.
In his testimony before the house
committee Mr.. Penton practically as
sumed responsibility for the state
ments in the American Flag rejecting
