PIPER IS BAD MAN
This Statement Made by OFF,
Gals in the Commit
ment Papers.
HIS PAROLE is OPPOSED

The following recommendations ara
made by Judge Fox and Prosecutor
Ladd in the prison commitment papers
of George NJ. Piper:
This convict is one of the. If not
the worst, criminal, that has ever been
convicted in this county.
II append hereto printed state
ment OF his known crimes, together
with the territory over which he has
been operating.
His criminal qualities arc Unborn
and inherent. To either parole or
pardon him would be a mistaken clem-
ency. as he is. in my judgment. beyond
the reach of redemption; and hereby
enter my earnest protest against either
parole or pardon. He should serve
| the full term for which he has been
! sentenced, for if he is released he will
| be sure to commit further crimes.
There is, in addition to the crime to
which he has pleaded guilty, charge
of burglary and larceny pending
against him in the circuit court mere.
| for which | have directed a warrant tC
issue and which is appended hereto, so
| that if he should. for any reason. be
released, he may be returned to this
county for further prosecution.
HENRY c. FOX,
| Judge of the Wayne Circuit Court
| Il hereby approve the foregoing
statement.

.|NF|RMARY TO Be
SITE OF BUILDING
County Attorney Thinks This
Only Place for Care of
Insane.
| MAKES AN INVESTIGATION
JUDGE FOX WlTHDRAWS RECON-
MENDATloN FOR ERECTING THE
BUILDING ON JAIL SiTE-OR-
JECTiONS MADE.
MAKES AN INVESTIGATION

There is but one chance in hum
dred that the building to be erected
for the care of the county insane who
can not be admitted to a state institu-
ton upon being declared of unsound
mind will be located at any other place
but the county infirmary, because Of
two reasons, which have arisen since
the Jail site was agitated as the proper
place for the building
The principal one of these two rea
sons is, that. there is a serious doubt
in the mind of County Attorney John
F. Robbins. if the building can be To-
Gated anywhere else but the county
infirmary He, after careful investi-
cation, doubts the legality Of the jail
site. The second reason is that Judge
Henry c. Fox. who was a champion of
the Jail site, has withdrawn his recon-
mendation to the county commission
ers. favoring this site because Of the
objections of property owners on South
Third street, and have made it's loca-
tion near their properties. These per
sons say that the property valuation in
this neighborhood would be depreciat-
ed greatly by reason of the location of
the building on South A street.
To Meet Saturday.
The county commissioners, at yes.
terday afternoons session, with rep.
resentatives of the county council
the county board of charities and cor
rections and others interested in the
matter. adjourned the session until
Saturday afternoon, owing to Mr.
Robbins announcing it is probable that
the county infirmary is the only place
where the building can be erected
He asked for time to examine author
| tiles more closely and will advise the
commissioners at Saturdays session.
! He said today that he was not pre-
| pared to state further, relative to the
legality of the Jail site. AS he views
the situation. from his inspection o
authorities. the county commission
ers have the right to build an insane
addition at the county infirmary fol
the care of the poor insane of tn,
county and also the dangerous in
sane. if provision is made for then
being watched and guarded. The Law
says that dangerous insane persons
shall be admitted to the county jai
and placed under the supervision o
the county sheriff. until admittanc,
to state institution. However. tn,
law does not require that poor in
sane who can not be cared for b.
their relatives and who are not dan
gerous. shall be placed in the count
Jail. Also the law does not provid
that the sheriff can even assume tn
care of the poor class Of insane pei
sons. which duty devolves on tn
county.

Unflatterinn Truth

A Chicago physician gleefully tells
child story at his own expense The
five children of some faithful patients
had measles, and during their rather
long stay IN the improvised home hos
pital they never failed to greet his
daily visit with pleased reclamation.
The good doctor felt duly flattered,
but rashly pressed the children, in the
days OF convalescense, for the reason
of this sudden affection. At last the
youngest and most indiscreet let slip
the better truth.
We felt so sick that we wanted
awfully to do something naughty, but
we were afraid to be bad for fear you
and the nurse would give us more hor-
rid medicine. So we were awfully
glad to see you, always, cause you
made us stick out our tongues. We
stuck 'em out awful fart"

II Is a Mistake

Many have the idea that anything
will sell If advertised strong enough.
This Is great mistake. True, a
few sales might be made by advertis-
Ing an absolutely worthless article but
1t is only the article that is bought
again and again that pays. An ex-
ample of the big success Of a worthy
article is the enormous sale that has
grown up for Cascarets Candy Cathar-
tic. This wonderful record is the result
of great merit successfully made known
through persistent advertising and the
mouth-to-mouth recommendation given
Cascarets by its friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting public,
by marketing fake tablets similar in
appearance to Carcarets. Care should
always be exercised in purchasing well
advertised goods, especially an article
that has a national sale like Cascar-
cts. Do not allow a substitute to be
palmed off on you.
