More Boats
FOrTaCOma

Tacoma already leads all ports
of the Northwest, but when the
Panama canal is finished it is ex-
pected she will lead the whole
coast.
The Merchants and Manufac-
turers' board of New York yester-
day informed the Commercial
club that new line of five steel
steamers will be put on to carry
lumber from Tacoma and Puget
Sound to the Atlantic when the
canal is opened.
f. s. Pendleton, the biggest
lumber carrier on the Atlantic, is
at the head of the enterprise. The
vessels will be especially built for
the lumber trade and fitted with
special loading and unloading de-
vices.
The steamers will make four
round trips year and will carry
so, 100000 feet of Tacoma lum-
be to the Atlantic. This will
mean a big boom in the lumber
industry here and new mills are
likely to be springing UP In the
next year to get ready for the big
demand which will come from the
east which heretofore has been
closed against Washington fir be-
cause of the high freight charges.

ING MANIAC.

Diving headflrst from his posi-
ton on a window ledge about
seven feet from the floor of his
cell this noon, Robert Hedinger,
aged ~, an inmate of the city
Jail, attempted to commit suicide,
dashing his head against the stone
floor. He was badly injured and
was rushed to the county hospital
by Jailer Rivard.
Hedinger, who said he was
printer from Portland, applied for
lodging at the city jail last Tues
day night, and though he had
$36.45 with him, the police took
him in, as he was apparently a
little queer In the head. But up
until this noon he was very ra-
tional.
When Chef Shiels came In with
his lunch today, he found Hedin-
ger perched up on the window
shelf. He asked Hedlnger to
come down and eat. Hedinger
refused, and requested the cook
to shoot him.
mo, you come down and eat
your dinner said Shiels. He'd
niger raised his hands above his
head, and rose to a standing pos
ture.
"Look out below" he cried,
and dove head first into the hard
cement, evidently bent on brain
Ing himself. Not knowing how
badly he was hurt, Jailer Rivard
rushed him to the county hospital
In the patrol wagon. On the way
there Hedinger recovered and be-
came violently insane. Rivard
was unable to control him and
was forced to stop at the Union
depot and call Patrolman Tallant
to his assistance. After a strug-
gle, the two officers handcuffed
Hedinger, now a raving maniac,
and continued on their way to
the hospital.

lam WEIGH DRIVEN MAD
OVER BITTERNESS OF PUN
ISHMENT GIVEN BY JUDGE.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, March ID
Driven by hunger to enter pri-
vate dwelling to steal piece of
bacon, William Welch is today
looking out hopelessly from be-
e hind iron bars, agra result of a
sentence to the penitentiary for
life by Judge Allread of the su-
pericr court.
Tine man Is now hopelessly in
sane by brooding over the over
whelming injustice of the sem
tence.
Six years ago Welch, a young
man of 25, was wandering
through Southern Ohio, looking
for work. He found neither job
nor generosity. Penniless, lonely,
hungry he lost his reverence for
the great god Property.
And so, one dark, bitter night,
in Greenville, Dar1e county, he
opened the door of a dwelling
house, entered and took a few
pounds of bacon to keep him alive
in his quest for work.
He lifted his hand against no
man. He attacked no woman. He
frightened no child. He destroy
ed nothing. He HAD to have food
and he took dollars worth of
bacon-that was all.
He was seen, caught and hailed
into court. And being at heart
an honest man, Welch admitted
stealing the bacon. He would
steal to live, but he would not lie
to avoid punishment.
The LAW, however, was NOT
so SQUARE AS THE THIEF.
Welch was guilty of breaking
and entering an inhabited dwell
ing at night" with intent to steal
property. And that, in Ohio, is
an offense punishable with life i'm
prisonment, unless the jury rec
ommends mercy.
Welch was destroyed by his
own honesty. BY pleading gull
ty," he surrendered his right to
a trial by jury. And so there was
no jury to recommend mercy"
Wherefore inexorable LAW, in
the person of Judge Allread, sent
him to the penitentiary for life.
1t is not likely that any jury
would have done that. And the
lack of jury was merely techni-
cal. The Judge MIGHT have in
sisted on jury trial for the pris-
oner, refusing to enter his plea of
guilty" Judges have often done
so.
This judge merely said, "There
Is no alternative" So, speaking
as a statute book, and not as a
man dealing with flesh and blood
aand the passions of life, with a
legal phrase he took away this
young mans lifelong freedom, his
human ties, even his secret hope
for stealing piece of bacon!
The door of the penitentiary
closed on William Welch, his
name became a number, and he
was forgotten.
just the other day somebody
happened to recall the case, and
inquired what had become of
William Welch. And this is what
he found:
THE BODY OF WILLIAM
WEIGH STILL LIVES, BUT
THE SOUL OF HIM Is DEAD.
A few months of prison life
brought him face to face with his
appalling fate. Brooding over it
