.HENDONS GO TO
PEN THURSDAY
SUDDEN TERMINATION OF ARSON
CASE CAUSED "A DECIDED
r. SENSATION.

Centerville, Feb 2S.-The sudden
termination Of the Hendon arson case
Tuesday afternoon created decided
sensation. The trial had been DELAYED
on account of the storm from Monday
till Tuesday afternoon. The Jurors
and witnesses were assembled to pro-
coed, when an intimation came from
Dick Hendon that he was ready 10
quit. He being insistent on 1t that It.
was useless to proceed farther, his
attorneys called the county attorney
into consultation and the result was
that the brothers plead guilty to con-
spiracy and the arson case was dis
missed. They were also under indict'
ment for conspiracy. Sentence was
passed on them at once, three years at
Fl. Madison and they will be taken
there Thursday.
Just what induced this confession
has caused all kinds of gossip, but as
nearly as can be learned 1t came
from the determination of the Hen.
dons to do the thing that was best for
them without regard to A. c. Croft,
with whom they had been Jointly IN.
dicted for burning the A. G. Croft Seed
Co., elevator at Moulton August IL.
They preferred to escape with a three
year sentence than run their chances
on ten years Since the jury has been
dismissed it is learned it was general
ly of the opinion that they were guilty
which shows that the Hendons had
cause to fear the outcome.
This now leaves A. G. Croft In
very precarious situation. He had
SIC, 500 insurance on the buildings. The
Hendons pleading guilty to conspiracy
rather than arson duplicates him IN
the conspiracy. AS soon as the Hen
dons had made their move he asked
fora continuance of his cases till the
next term and this was granted by
Judge Vermilion. The general feeling
is that he will never go to trial, but
will like the Hendons plead guilty,
though it is not so certain that the
state will accept plea on the con-
spiracy charge from him, but hold him
to the arson charge. ....
The newly created state fire mar
shal's department has had a conspicu-
Gus part in this case. Deputy Fire
Marshal J. A. Tracy has been here
continuously. His chief, Ole Roe, was
here part of the time. This 1s the
seventh plea of guilty in arson cases
since the department began work last
July, and there has been one convic-
ton with years sentence. The
states case was also brilliantly hand
led by County Attorney Roll w. Smith
and his assistants, H. e. Valentine and
T. G.. Fee, Sheriff Lee Dowis rendered
valuable aid in collecting evidence.

story on an incident which happened
during one Of his recent journeys.
With him was a friend formerly in

feur was signaled by a Surrey con.
stable to stop. Mr.. Balfour was his
own chauffeur. The constable insist
cd that the speed was over the limit.
Mr.. Balfour was sure it was not.

Clean Up About The Barn.

If it pays to keep a mare, cow, a
SOW, or eve to produce young,
certainly it pays to add the little ex-
pense or trouble necessary to give
her a fair chance to rear her young.
Too often the mare or cow must
bring her young in filthy stables or
lots. Many calf DIES with scours,
and colts die with infamed joints
that the owners attribute to Just
nv bad luck" when the trouble is
filth-infection through the navel
cord, the result of being dropped in
a filthy stable.
During the past winter, with our
continuous rainy season, the barn
lots have been in terrible condition
and in many cases the stables have
been little better. There is no need
of these conditions being quite SO
bad. In the first place, the live
stock ought not to be allowed to run
all around the barn and tramp the
ground into the condition that usual
" exists in a wet spell. Surely one
side of tho barn, at least, can be
kept in condition to be approached
without danger Of foundering in
the mud.
Stalls can also be kept dry and
clean, even if the floors are of dirt;
but it requires drainage and that
the floors be raised above the sur
rounding soil.
