not ask again"
Has she visited you since you
were placed in jail?"
Yes, the last time, Oct. %.
Bromley explained that his mother
owned farm near Rochester. but she
sold IL recently and he has not heard
directly or indirectly from her since
that time.
We'll. how long are you going to
stick" he was asked.
"If it's a case OF dig up or remain
will stay here" he replied.
Say" he said hastily, why is this
affair causing so much comment

any OF these offers and | don't think

the day ever comes. I'm going to hike
out OF this section
Asked where he was going Bromley
said he was planning on going west.
Bromley, a tall man, with dark
hair, heavy dark moustache. and
piercing blue eyes that look out under
heavy eyelashes. preserves the mill
tary mien that he acquired during six
years as a soldier. He served three
years In the Third and Fifth United
States regiments in the Philippines
and was near when Aguinaldo, the
Filipino leader was captured by Gen.
Funston in far-off Luzon. When the
rebel chieftain was taken TO Manila
Bromley was assigned to guard duty
around the tentative prison. He also
acted as escort for Gen. Lawton and
the latter's wagon train shortly be-
fore I.awton was killed by Filipinos.
IL is the general impression that
the attorney who was retained by
Tucker took the case on a commits
sion basis and had Bromley put into
Jail. thinking the latter would event
ually pay up rather than remain be-
hind the bars Perhaps Bromley felt
that the judgment was not justified
by the facts, but at any rate he pro-
tested that he had no money and
could not raise any. He Is more de-
termined now than ever to remain
in Jail rather than dig up.
Bromley is a railroad man by pro-
fession. For some time he was con-
ductor on a freight car that ran be-
tween Detroit and Pontiac on the
Detroit United lines. and says he has
worked as engineer on a steam rail-
road.
The question of whether Bromley
is entitled to his freedom under the
poor debtors act will be heard be-
fore Circuit Court Commissioner
Howarth, OF Rochester, in the near
future. Attorney T. 3. Bromley. his
cousin, has filed a petition asking
for the prisoners release from the
Jail where he has been held on a

he has been in Jail for more than
10 months and is enjoying himself
AT another's expense.
Bromley was slapped into the lock-
up because he refused TO pay Judg-
ment for 1915, which Richard Tucker,
an employe in a local factory, OBJ
tanned after he had prosecuted Brom-
ley for the alleged alienation OF Mrs.
fuckers affections. Bromley says he
aid not have the money or he might
have bought his way TO liberty tuck
or and his attorney evidently thought
that he could produce the cash II ne

liberating over the case during MS
many leisure moments in prison, says

Great Scott" More newspaper

10 hrs feet from period OF contented
reverie TO meet the visitor who was
10 interview him on the unique case.
He leveiIed his keen, microscopic
eyes on the visitor, looked serious Tor
few moments and then smiled
humorously as he pointed 10 chair.
He discussed his case from many
different angles, but when the money
question came up he fell into a
period OF seemingly serious thought
and said, Il didn't have cent or
might have dug up, but now III stay

This well-fed, good-natured star
boarder sat on the edge of the plain
bed In his room, a self-satisfed ex-
preston in his rugged cheeks adding
10 his appearance of contentment. His
pudgy sides shook with cackling
glee at times, especially when he was
asked who was paying his board.
Tucker is supposed 10 foot the
bills" he said with a twinkle In his
eye, but he only makes an ordinary
salary and 1t looks to me like his at
torney is paying because checks Tor
my expenses have come here bearing
his signature, and Bromley's SNUG,
smilingly rosy face again showed
plainly that he felt proud OF his feat
in standing pat for so long; and, per-
haps, the evident sincerity with which
he remarked that he had no money
made him feel more contented IN his
unique position.
~DiGnts you have some property

Yes" he replied, but l transfer

THE MT. IDA HIGHWAY,

The two days of voluntary labor that was to have resulted in the building of a good highway between Hot Springs and Mt. Ida were writ ten into history last night.
 IL is not certain that the road is what 1t should be this morning. 1t is more likely tIhat the two days ot work made it apparent to all that more of the same kind of work should he necessary before the end was at tained.
 But the main result is accomplish ed when 1t is assured that the peo- pie along the route and at both terminals are determined to have a good highway between these points, and that they are thoroughly arous~ ed as to the need of not only the building but the permanent mainten- ance of such a highway.
 There are other directions from Hot Springs that need improvement In the road building line, and they will come in for attention i'll time. The Buckyille road will probably bA next, and after that other roads Will ifebc worked, all to be developed along the general plan of the Mt. Ida Hot Springs road, which is mainly with voluntary labor and voluntary subscriptions
 Too much can not be said of this road building proposition because it means much to Hot Springs resort efs, just as we'll as meaning much to Hot Springs commerce., That would be great day for Hot Springs when in our advertising We could herald to the world that We have l0t niles of good auto highways thai wind into the hills and valleys oi the Ozarks and offer the most beau tiful scenery in the country for om visitors.
