TEXAS BANDIT FOOLED
IN DARING HOLDUP
Sheriff Was Passenger on Mail Coach
Robber Hoped to Rifle of
Its Cash.

San Angelo, Texas, May 1S.--In a
lonely spot on the divide between
the Concho and Devils rivers, in
Schleicher county, ninety miles west
of here, and four miles east of Ell
dorado, an unsuccessful attempt
was made to hold up the Sonora
mail coach. One shot was fired by
the would-be-robber Sheriff Jim
Craig of Schleicher county and two
others were passengers in the car
The bullet barely missed the sher.
iff and Driver James Daugherty
who were sitting on the front seat
The car was on it's east bound
journey for this city, and n add.
ton to the mail, had on board a
considerable sum to be deposited In
local banks.
The robber was stationed behind
a clump of live oak trees on the left
side of the road and was we'll pro-
tected.
The shot tore hole through the
radiator of the machine and pune
tured the water bag that was car
ried. Before the second shot could
be fired the auto was out of range.
Immediately upon reaching here
Sheriff Craig telegraphed back to
Eldorado to institute search for
the would-be bandit.

Pointers for Motorists.

Just. now whom the roads are be-
ing repaired motorists frequently
have to drive over stretches of crush
ed stone, and tire treads are likely
to suffer from many small cuts un-
less great care is taken to drive
slowly or coast over the repaired
parts of the road. These cuts, unless
properly cared for, will prove in
furious.
Dirt will work into and under the
tread, raising blisters and separat-
ing the rubber from the carcass of
the tire while moisture will attack
and rot the fabric. Once the fabric
is affected, says the Michelin ex-
pert, disintegration follows rapidly.
The best protection is the proper and
timely use of Mastic.
Immediately upon discovery cuts
should be cleaned to their full
depth with gasoline, the edges be-
ing kept apart by match. All dirt
or other foreign matter should be
removed with stiff brush or splin-
ter of wood covered with waste. AT
ter the gasoline has evaporated and
the cut is absolutely clean, its in
terror should be coated with liquid
cement. After this has dried, sec
ond coat must be applied and while
the cement is still 'tacky" suffi
cient quantity of Mastic should bt
forced into the cut until it is com
pletely filled. A little excess Mastit
is best as it contracts somewhat IL
hardening. If the edges of the Gu
are now held down few moments
while the Mastic sets, the repair Il
complete. The tire should not b.
used, however, for five or six hours
so that the Mastic may harden prop
erly.

RICHES0N SANE MAN
MUST DIE IN CHAIR
AIienists Find Prisoner Subject to
Hysterical Insanity, but sane
at Time of Crime.

Boston, Mass, May 17.-Clarenee
V. T. Richeson's hopo of escape
from the death chair next week, for
the murder of Avis Linnell, expired
last night, when Gov. Foss announ-
ced he would not refer. Richeson's
petition for communication of SEN
tence to the executive council
The statement from the governor
came soon after the filing of the re
ports of the special insanity COM
mission, which declared the con-
demned man sane, although subject
to fits of hysterical insanity. Inc
commission found that Richeson was
sane at the time of the murder and
that he is sane now.
In the death chamber the prisoner
has borne himself calmly since nc
was transferred from the Charles
Jail Tuesday. 1t was apparent that
he still hoped clemency would be
extended to him and it was believed
today that this alone was keeping
up his spirits.
The statement issued by GOV
Foss shows that the alienists fount
that Richeson's family was afflict
ed very generally with insanity ant
that the condemned man himself L
neurotic, somnambulists and
