Two Others Are Found Guilty
of Tar Party
Crime.
A. n. s1Mns ACQUITTED
Court Also Rules That Convicted
Men Must Pay Costs
Of Case.

Lincoln Center, Kans., Nov. U.s.
Two of the defendants in the "tar-
party" case, John Schmitt and Sher-
/ ill Clark, late yesterday were found
guilty of assault and battery by a
jury in Judge Growers court that
had been out continuously since
1890 o'clock Thursday morning. A..
N. Simms, the third defendant, was
acquitted. Sentence on the two men
was deferred to permit attorneys to
argue for motion for new trial.
Earlier in the day In the same
court sentences of one year each In
the county jail, the extreme penalty

were passed on Everett G. Clark, Jay
Fitzwater, Watson Scranton and Ed
ward Ricord, confessed assailants of
Mary Chamberlain. These defend
ants were accused Of the same crime
as the other men.
In addition to the sentences the
court ruled that the men must pay
the costs of the prosecution. An eff
fort was made by attorneys for Fitz-
water and Clark to have the court
entertain a motion to grant an ap-
peal to the supreme court on the
ground that the sentence was excess
sive. This motion was not passed
on yesterday.
Ricord already was In Jail. having
been surrendered by his bondsmen
several days ago. The court told
the three other men they might
have a short length Of time in which
to straighten up their business at
fairs.
Fitzwater says he will go to jail.
next week. Clark's immense bust
ness interests may make 1. necessary
for him to be free for q month or
more. Scranton said he would be
ready for Jail in few hours and he
would not appeal his case.
Both the convicted and sentenced
men took their fates calmly.
The four confessed men expressed
themselves as actually being glad
the long period Of waiting was ov-
err Sheriff. Clark and John Schmitt
hardly expected conviction but they
had no complaint to offer. They aye
still free on their bonds. It is eA-
pected they will be given plenty Of
time to arrange their business at
fairs as were the other defendants
should they finally be sentenced.
Only few spectators were in the
court room at any time yesterday.
This was due to the dual reason that
it was not generally known the con-
victed men were to be sentenced and
also because the jury was expected
to be hung.

It had been feared the prisoner

placing his arms and hands in the

IRISH POTATO PLANTING
CONTINUED from page ~

potato requires it. Barnyard manure
greatly increases the yield, as it adds
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and pot
ash; also greatly improving the me-
chanical condition of the soil. 1t is
best, however, to not apply the ma
nure directly 10 the potato crop, but
to have used it on the land the year
before. An argument against using
it directly is that by so doing the
dangers of the disease are greatly
increased. If it has not been applied
to the previous crop, it would be
best to have the manure well rotted
before applying.
Where the soil has been for sew
eral years treated with barnyard
manure and green crops plowed un-
der, commercial fertilizers can be
used with advantage. What the
grower wants in this time is a gen.
eral fertilizer is, complete
one,--containing nitrogen, phosphor-
ic acid and potash. 1t has been
found that. fertilizers should contain
a good percentage of potash when
used on potatoes; and it is there
that the special potato fertilizers
hold their secret of success. Sui
phate of potash is regarded as the
best form.

Two Collars on a Dog.

Having bought dog that he admir-
ed, q man undertook to buy a dog col
lar. The dog had neck nearly as big
as his head, and the dealer advised the
man to buy two collars.
"What for?" said the man. "He's
only got one neck, so guess he can
get along with only one collar, can't
he"
Maybe So" said the man, so the
man went away leading the dog by his
new collar and chain. In less than a
week he brought the dog back.
"I'm afraid I can't keep him." he
said. "He is too obstreperous. I can't
keep him tied up. His neck is the big
gest part of him, and he Is as strong
as an OK, therefore it is a cinch for
him to slip his collar Off"
"That was why wanted you to take
two collars" said the dealer. "Put
both on and fasten the chain to the
back collar, and he can tug away all
night without getting loose. He may
commit suicide, but he won't get
loose."-New York Sun.
