Novel Bat Lands Unwary in Jail-Fashion Fancy
 Proves Fatal

The spring hats have arrived, and
 already their lure has landed one
 man in jail It was one of those
 hobby little derbies. or as they are

 west, 'dicers." " They are being
 worn extensively and almost exclu- sively by the man in the fuIl-page magazine advertisements. They are something of a take-off on the hats worn by Hebrew comedians and are the last word in hat agony.
 The man who fell a victim to the lure of the new spring hat is Turner D. Washington. who, nOtwithstand- ing his name, is a negro. He was a porter at the Phelps Dodge mercan- tile establishment The hat made a captive of him and compelled the negro porter to put it in the waste basket, where later the porter effect cd a rescue. Realizing the futility of taking it out in bundle, he adopted the bold expedient of wear ing it out on his head. and was caught with the goods on" by a house de- tective.
 Washington was tried before Judge High yesterday afternoon, and sen fenced to pay a fine of S25. He was sent to jail, and unless the fine is forthcoming, he will serve twenty five days in jail, all for one little hat. denied that he stole the hat, and said that he found" it in the waste basket. But when another porter started to pack the waste down with his feet. Washington put forth a staying hand. saying that there was something in the basket that he wanted.
 There is a saying among crimi- nologists that mans character may be read by the kind of hat he wears. 1 This hat is one that the style writ CTS call swell" so Washington is classified as a coon who likes to well
