HYDE SENTENCED
FOR LIFE TERM.
SWope Poisoner Convicted of the
Staying of Millionaire to Die
Behind Prison Walls
Associated Press1

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 5.-Dr. B.
c. Hyde, convicted of having poisoned
Col. Thomas H. Swope, the millionaire
philanthropist, was sentenced to life
Imprisonment at hard labor this morn
ing by Judge Ralph S. Latshaw in the
criminal court.
An appeal to the state supreme court
was filed by Hyde's attorneys, and until
it is taken up by the higher court the
prisoner will remain in the county Jail
here.
The case was called by Judge Lat
shaw as soon as court opened today.
The doctor and his wife, who had stood
by him so faithfully, sat side by side
and held each others hand as Judge
Latshaw promptly overruled the mo-
tion for arrest of judgment and COM
manded DR.. Hyde to stand up. Before
passing sentence he asked the prisoner
if he had anything to say.
Dr. Hyde, smiling and very calm, re-
Piled II did not understand you,
judge"
Have you anything to say why SEN
tence should not be passed upon you?
repeated the judge.
MY attorneys will talk for me-" said
DIR. Hyde simply.
At this point Attorney Lucas, for the
defense, arose and told the court that
he had nothing to say Then, as DR..
Hyde remained standing, Judge Lat
shaw continued: '"The judgment of the
court, Dr. Hyde, is that you be con-
fined in the state penitentiary at JEFF
ferson City at hard labor for and dur
ing the period of your natural life"
A moment later DR.. Hyde had re-
sumed his seat by his wife at the at
torney's table. His attorney asked the
court to grant bail. This Judge Lat
shaw said he could not do, and then
Mr.. Lucas presented an affidavit for an
appeal to the state supreme court. This
was accepted by Judge Latshaw, and
Hyde was remanded to the county jail.
The court said the prisoner would be
kept there until the supreme court had
passed finally upon his case. AS the
court does not meet until the first week
in September, and 1t has a heavy
docket, it is the belief Of the attorneys
that the case cannot be reached for at
least six months.
court DR.. Hyde maintained the same
deliberate demeanor that marked his
conduct throughout the long trial. He
did today what attorneys said was an
unusual thing. After having been sem
fenced, and before he signed the af-
fidavit for appeal, the doctor calmly
read through the long document, word
by word, giving no sign of emotion.
Finally, having completed the perusal,
he affixed his signature, turned toward
his wife and engaged her in CONVERSE
tion.

DR.. CUPID CURES
HOSPITAL INMATE
Wealthy San Diego Youth Recov-
ers from Illness and
Marries Nurse

George Allen Doyle, said to be worth
owner of some OF the choicest real es-
tate in San Diego, ran away and was
married here yesterday to Miss Ethel
sanitarium training school in San D1-
ego. Following the ceremony they
took apartments at the Hollenbeck and
refused to see anyone or to discuss
their elopement
The couple came to this city yester-
day morning, after Miss BiSSelle had
excused herself from the sanitaIium by
saying that she had company coming
to see her. Soon after their arrival
they went to the county clerks office,
and, securing a license, were married
at once. In the license Doyle gave his
age as % years, but telegraphic advices
from San Diego state that he is only 10
years old His bride is 1S.
The young bridegroom is an orphan.
He was taken i'll recently, and while in
the Agnew sanitarium met several of
the nurses employed there. Among
these was Miss BisSelle, and their ac-
quaintance ripened into love, which
resulted in yesterdays elopement. AL
though he would say nothing in regard
to the affair last evening, young Doyle
admitted that he ran away to get mar
ried, and gave as a reason for not talk
ing that HE would get his hair pulled
as it was. and he didn't want to make
it any worse"
When given to understand that it
was reported he was still under age,
Doyle was visibly startled, but again
affirmed the statement that he was %
years old.
Doyle recently inherited the south
west corner of Fifth and d streets,
which is said to be one of the most
valuable corners In San Diego, from
his grandmother, Mrs. A. j. Jose. He
has other property besides this, and is
we'll connected in the southern city, be-
ing the nephew of Jarvis Doyle of the
Doyle Barnes wholesale company. He
is also related to Col. Edward Fletcher,
owner of Grossmont acres, suburban
property near San Diego.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. d. S. Bisselle, who live at Twen-
ty-third and ] streets, San Diego. They
did not know of the elopement until it
occurred. 1t is understood they are not
disposed to scold their daughter. The
bridegroom's relatives, however. are
less inclined to accept the situation
pleasantly.

posed to the Union

LONDON, July 6.-Miss Dorothy
Deacon, daughter of the late Edward
Parker Deacon, and Prince Atterne
Albert Radziwill were married today
in st. Marys church, Cadogan square
The ceremony was quiet, without
bridesmaids and only a few relatives
and friends attending. Lord Grey de
Ruthyd gave away the bride.
Prince Radziwill married against the
determined opposition of his mother,
who is supposed to be in Austria to
attend the Wedding of younger SON.
This London ceremony was postponed
a few days ago because necessary doc
uments wanted by English law had
not arrived, and it was then reported
in society that the objections of the
princes mother had prevailed.

for upkeep and Incidental expenses,

equivalent in actual economic waste

THE LESSON OF RENO.

IF we are to save our civilization
from such d fate as befell that which
went before 1t we must dethrone tho
Mammon god Of unrestricted indus
5trialisnl. We must realize that an in
5dustry is to be Judged not only by the
prosperity of the few who direct t,
but by the condition OF the many who
carry 1t on. We must restore tho pur-
suit of beauty to It's place as a civic
virtue. We must make life fuller and
more interesting, less of q grinding
struggle, more of boon and an adj
venture for all
That is the lesson which Reno
taught me as see 1t clearly after
these few weeks
This is what He said in theS Outlook
and the comment of the New York
Sun in one OF its meanest headlines
appears to be sufficiently descriptive
of It: Gosh. what slush!'' What does
1T mean, and who is He hitting at?
Does it mean that we "all' ought to
go into the prize-fghting business? Is
IT the many who lost on Jeffries or
the few who won on Johnson by whom
this industry Is to be judged? Is the
N1ammon god of unrestricted industrl-
nlism," to which direct reference Is
made, white or colorcd? Is there any
reason why the Contributing Editor
should trespass upon the preserves OF
Henry James? Why should the Sun
say, Gosh, what slush!" just because
1T can't see what is perfectly clear to
Him after these few weeks?"

WHO PUTS IN THE JOKER

The Philadelphia Record asks q very
pertinent question concerning the
..ioker' clause in the Indian Appropri-
alton bill passed by the last Congress
1t says:
who puts jokers' into bills2 With
all the COMMITTEES on enrolled bills
and committees on engrossed bills
and committees on the various
branches of the public service, which
prepare the bills and carry then

| Congress, how is 1t that Jokes are not
discovered until the bills get to thu
| White House. and often not until the
| President has signed them? Besides
| the Indian lands concerned in the
| Gore charges there are lands affected
! by twenty thousand individual con-
| tracts the right to which has been
settled by the courts. The Circuit
I Court of Appeals has decided the cases
in favor of the government. When
| the Indian appropriation bill reached
the President, Solicitor-General Bow
ers discovered in it-these jokers al
ways creep into appropriation bills
a provision allowing the holders of the
lands to take an appeal from tho Cir
cult Court OF Appeals to the Supreme
| Court. The theory is that they had no
expectation Of disputing the decision,
lsbut hoped to get another year CT two
lof occupation Of the lands. and they
are working night and day; TO strip
them of oil and minerals. 1t was too
.late to send the bill back for correc-
ton, and the President signed it., but
a receiver for the lands will he APP
