SENTENCED FOR ROBBERY

Judge Taber this forenoon
sentenced Harry G. Stone to five
years and three months in the
pentintiary and Ed Harrison. his
partner in crime, was given seven
year and nine months. On the l4th
of last December, these men fell
in with Ed. Woodall, a laboring
man and the three started in to
have good time. Woodall had
m oney and Stone and Harrison
accepted every invitation he gave
them to drink. According to
Woodall'S story as told to Judge
Taber this forenoon, all of them
were pretty drunk. when WoodalI
said he was going to the red-light
district. Stone and Harrison went
with him and on the way there
Harrison knocked Woodall down
and he and Stone took his money.
Harrison and Stone claimed they
got only $40 while Woodall says he
lost $50.
Stone told Judge Taber that he
had never been in trouble before
that he had no thought of commit
ing a crime until Woodall had
been knocked down and that had
he been sober he would not have
taken any part in it. Harrison
admitted serving six and one-half
years of ten year sentence in San
Quentin and being released on the
Oath of November. He denie d
striking Woodall with any instru-
ment or more than once. The
impulse came on him suddenly. He
also charged the crime to whiskey.
Woodall asked the court to be
lenient with the prisoners, but
insisted that he was struck three
times and that $50 was taken from
him. Only $23.O8 was found on
the prisoners at the Jail and this
Judge Taber ordered returned to
Woodall.

sion of this week finds a rapid read

placed at 000O0 600, yet such is the
general prosperity Of the country that
the money centers do not show ire
NOR. Slowness in collections is re-
ported in the cotton districts, as might
be expected whilst the price of cotton
has increased in view of the smaller
area to be planted this year. With
the usual rains Of the season, a large
area of the recently submerged land
will be long I'm drying out. This will
make it too late In some cases for

When the liver becomes too fat, its
action is impeded, allowing the fat
making foods to make more fat
than is needed for normal SYM
metry. The liver, clogged with ex-
cess fat, becomes inactive, and,
from disease. the nature of the or
gan undergoes a change. Constipa-
ton, headaches, biliousneSs and
similar local disturbances of the
system are not the least Of the fat
man or voman's troubles, for the
rolls and layers of fat On all por-
tons of the body increase, clogging
other organs, paving the way to
obesity. All this can be avoided, if
the proper remedy is resorted to at
