Ardenites Break Rock at Prison

by a number Of their friends. among
them being Miss Craig Kimbro, Of
Mississippi, a visitor to Sinclair's fam
lily. and Arthur Kemp, poet from
Kansas. Mr.. Kemp became thirsty
during the hearing and started on a
hunt for refreshments, but he became
tangled I'm some flower pots and lat
ter he came near having a fight with
a policeman. He did not get the re-
freshments.
During the hearing Magistrate
Robertson became mixed on the name
Arden, referring to IL as Eden, which
caused Brown 10 smile. After the
hearing the Ardenites assembled in a
rear room Of the magistrates office
and ice cream was served them there,
too, before leaving for the Work
house.
Everything is now centered on the
meeting which Is to be a public one
at Arden tomorrow night. Just what
will be done is not known but it was
stated by one of the ball players last
evening that a resolution would be
presented sanctioning the action Of
the club in having Brown arrested
and that Il would be passed. Brown,
on the other hand, claims that at the
meeting he will merely talk on the
subject which he was denied 10 do,
that Of a redistribution Of power
In the meantime G. Frank Stephens,
the founder of the colony, will ar
rive I'm Arden on Friday evening and
some exciting things are expected.
On Saturday the Society Circus" will
be held and the ex-jail birds are talk
ing of having an exhibit of their own
as an attraction at the show.
Life at WOrkhOuse.
At noon today Warden Crawford, Of
the Workhouse, had only words OF
praise TO speak for the Ardenites. He
said he had visited the quarry several
times during the morning and on each
occasion he found the ten prisoners
faithfully performing their work. He
said there was not one in the party
who shirked his work. and he referred
TO them as strong and hearty young
men"
The task assigned to them was to
break up stone into pieces, small
enough to go into the crusher, which
machine reduced the stone to a mar
ketable size. George Brown chris
tened this crusher during his stay az
the Workhouse "The Huge Monster" D."
At 10 o'clock the men quit work for
dinner and following this meal re-
turned to the quarry and worked up
TO o'clock, getting back to the
prison in time to change their clothes
and leave there at o'clock.
Sinclair, who is an advocate Of the
simple diet, made the statement last
/ evening before starting for the Work
/ house that he would fast while there.
/ He kept his word too, and had COM
pany, as two or three of the prisoners
refused to eat breakfast Just who
they were was not learned. The menu
this morning consisted of boiled rice
bread and molasses and coffee. Sin
clairs chief item of diet Is nuts, ce-
reals and vegetables.
