NEGRO SENTENCED 20
 YEARS IMPRISONMENT

After being out about one hour, the jury in the case of Johnnie May, negro, charged with highway robbery, brought in a verdict of guilty and fixed the pun ishment at 20 years in the penitentiary. The negro was accused of robbing a young lady at Brighton about year ago. The witnesses for the state alleged that the accused knocked the lady down and robbed her, the young ladys screams brought assistance but the negro es- cared. He was captured about three months ago and taken before the young lady who promptly identified him.
 At the trial yesterday in the first divi- sion of the criminal court. Judge Caha- Ian presiding, the accused tried to prove an alibi, and a number of character wit nesses were introduced on behalf of the negro The young lady was positive in her testimony, and as to the identiflca- tion of the prisoner.
 Assistant Solicitor Ed Winston repre- sented the state, Hollis Parrish was at torney for defendant.
 In the second division of the criminal court, Judge Green got through with his misdemeanor docket set aside for the day and took up one of the capital cases set in the first division, that of Lucian Williams charged with criminal assault. The case was given to the jury late yes terday afternoon who were unable to reach a verdict last night.

PUTS LOVE LETTERS
 ON WALKING STICK
Englishman Solves Problem of What to Do With the
 Tender MissiveS

London Cor. of the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 The problem of what to do with one s love letters, discussed in the newspapers here some time ago. has been solved in novel way by a British blue jacket.
 He carries all his love letters wherever he goes, generally in his hand, but he can never read them again--he has had them made into stick.
 He has made stout walking stick with thousand love letters which he re- ceived from the young lady who is now his wife.
 new and ingenious method of preserving love letters Is Leading Seaman H. S Vim ten of H. M s. Glory, stationed at Chatham.
 Soms time ago he read the correspond ence which appeared in the newspapers on What to do with love letters
 Among the suggestions were the follow ing:
 eDestroy the letters on the day of mar riage.''
 ..Never write them.
 s'Burn them as soon as read"
 Don't keep them: they fill you with contempt of yourself when you read thcm.''
 ''Cut them into tiny pieces and make them into cushions"
 Have them buried with you when you die.
 Seaman Vinten thought he would go olfe better than any of these suggestions, and the idea occurred to him that he

CATALAN FAVORS
 ELECT|NG CLERK
Much Discussion Over the Methods of Naming the
 Criminal Court Clerk

With the apporach of the meeting of the democratic executive committee Of Jefferson county, the question as 10 whether the elerkship of the criminal court will be made elective is being vide iy discussed Already three candidates are in the field for this position, but the action tho executive committee will take in the matter has not been made known.
 The appointment of the clerk of the criminal court is in the hands of the senior judge, and already one of the can didates for the position has announced himself as favoring the office being made elective. Judge Frank Cahalan, when asked as to his position fin the matter, said.
 'As soon as the county democratic exc cutive committee has fixed date and made arrangements for the primary elee- ten. I expect to make formal announce ment of my candidacy for reelection as judge of the criminal court.
 In the meantime have no hesitancy in saying that I hope the committee will take such action as will result in the clerkship of the criminal court being made elective. l have never appointed a clerk of this court. have never wished to appoint clerk. and do not now de- sire the responsibility of making the ap- pointment
 About 12 years ago when the clerk was required to run before the people, assisted in the fight that resulted in plac- Ing his name on the ticket
 Tn order that the clerkship be made elective, it will be necessary for the com mittee 10 require candidates for the sen for judgeship to pledge themselves to ap- point as cleck the man who receives the highest number of votes in the primary election for the office of clerk of the criminal court.
 T take pleasure in pledgng myself and if l am reelected senior judge of this court, will be pleased to appoint whoever receives the greatest number of votes.
