MEN ARE GIVEN
 CONGRATULATIONS
Today, However, Diggs and His Associate, Caminetti, Will Be Sentenced for Violating Mann w hite Slavery Act
ASSOCIATED PRESS DrsPArcH1


 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16.-In just one hour and thirty minutes, the jury in the case of Maury l. Diggs and Chas E. Harris of Sacramento, charged with conspiracy to suborn perjury in the cases of Diggs and F. Drew Caminetti, recently convicted under the Mann white slave traffic act, returned a yer dict of not guilty today.
 Neither defendant attempted to con- ceal his relation when the judgment was read. and each was the recipient of congratulations from relatives and friends who gathered to hear the jur- or's decision.
 For the first time in nearly six weeks there was evidence of genuine happi- ness at the table that the defense used in the three eases that attracted na- tionWide attention.
 None of the jurors would discuss the verdict or their reasons for voting that Diggs and Harris were not guilty. Be- fore returning to the court with their judgment, they pledged each other not to talk
 T cannot understand the verdict, said Matt | Sullivan, senior prosecutor TOT the government. me evidence against the two men was overwhelm- ing. I confidently expected a verdict of guilty
 Harris was Digg's attorney in private matters before the escapade in which Diggs and Caminetti eloped with Marsha Warrington and Lola Norris from Sacramento to Reno last March. After the arrest of the men and the girls and before the trial of Diggs and Caminetti under the white slave law, Harris and Diggs the government charged, made an attempt to influence Miss Warrington to tell a story about the Reno affair that would exOnorate the two men. It was charged that Diggs and Harris persuaded Miss Nellie Barton. a friend of the Warrington girl. to request Miss Warrington never to reveal the true nature of the trip to Reno. Miss Barton testified to the facts, but Harris, on the stand today. denied he ever sent the young woman on any such mission. Diggs and Cam inetu will be sentenced tomorrow by Judge Van Fleet for violation of the Mann act. Motions for a new trial will be made in the event of a denial by thee ourt, an appeal will be taken.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

| | LITTLETON Sept. 16.-Counsel fOI Harry K ThaW laid today the founda- - tion of plans to carry the case to the supreme court of the United States when the governor of New Hampshire passes on the matter of the extradition of ThaW to New York. The hearing is to be held in Concord on Tuesday and the findings, if adverse to Thaw, will be reviewed by the United States dis trict court and should a decision against him then be rendered, success sive appeals will be taken until the case reaches the highest court in the land.
 This was the announcement from Thaw's lawyers tonight after the most notable court victory for the fugitive either in Canada or the United States since his escape from Matteawan.
 It was made after the hearing of the federal writ of habeas corpus obtained in Thaw's behalf and invoking the fourteenth amendment to the consti- tuition, had been suspended indefinitely until such time as counsel saw fit to begin arguments after the extradition matter has been decided by Governor Felker. Edgar Aldrich, United States
 
 shire, in deciding that Thaw had the right, in effect. to hold the habeas cor pus writ in abeyance. explained in re- script that this is the petitioners priv ilege in that's hould he be ordered ex- tradited. Tt would still be open to the federal authorities to afford such pro- lection as the constitution and the laws of the United States require"
 ThaJ4-'C nh Moses Grossman and L. J Vorhaus of New York, left town tonight. leaving their client in the joint custody of the United States Marshal and Sheriff Drew of Coos county and may not re- turn until the hearing before Governor Felker is called. Not long after, de- parted the head of the New York state forces. William Travers Jerome and with him Deputy Attorney General Kennedy and Sheriff Hornbeck of Duchess county. New York All will come back for @ hearing on Tuesday,
 Thaw, according to an understand ing reached, will be taken to Concord tomorrow. Jerome had little comment to make.
 "ThaW is tied up now with a federal writ" he said "and there is no getting around it. But the questions to be decided by the governor are simple and We hope for victory"
 For the first time since his return to the United States after his sudden deporta- ton from Canada Thaw was cheered openly today. Enthusiastic and sym pathetic crowds greeted him at the sta tion and when he descended the main street after his victory, hurrahs were given as he passed.

ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI


 JENA, Sept 16.-The general strike" as political weapon as was employed last April in Belgium and at earlier periods in France and Russia, was the subject of a warm and extended de- bate at the socialist convention today. It found few friends as a measure for immediate use.
 The failure of the socialists to gair substantially at the last elections for the Prussian diet and the evident inn possibility of their doing so under the existing conditions of the Prussian franchise led to the debate. The radi- cal section demanded today that Ger mans should start a fight on similar lines to those which were successful in Belgium.
 A resolution was introduced by the central committee which approved 'in principle" such a step, but held that the time was not ripe for it.'
 Dr Karl Liebknecht declared a poli- tical strike at the present moment would be a catastrophe.

For Second Time Within Three Years Attempt is Made to Kill Owner of Los Angeles Times With Dynamite
JAP SERVANT
 SAVES HIS LIFE
Receives Package from a Postman Which is Later Opened by Expert and Found to Contain Quan- tity of Explosive
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcH1

LOS ANGELES. Sept. 16.-For the second time within three years bomb today jeopardized the life oi Harrison Gray Otis, owner of the Los Angeles Times, which was destroyed by dynamite October 1, 1910. That he was not blown to pieces was probably due to the watchful eyes of a Japanese servant, who received from a postman an inferenal machine which was mailed in this city, and called the attention of his employer to it.
 The first internal machine directed at the life of General Otis was found near his residence a few hours after his newspaper plant was destroyed through the efforts of the Me Namaras.
 The attempt on his life today was attributed by the general to agencies friendly to those responsible for the destruction of his newspaper plant and the killing of twenty men three years ago. But the police and postal authorities believed that something might be developed from the theory that the Mexican question had an i'm polling part in it.
 Otis is heavily interested in lands iil the Mexican territory of Lower California where two years ago the Industrial Workers of the World join cd the direct action element Of Mexicans in an effort to establish a socialistic commonwealth.
 Captain E. B Felts, the powder ex- pert of the police department took the machine to a sparsely inhabited section of the city and pried open the box. He found matches fixed in side the box in such manner that when it was opened the usual way they would be rubbed against pieces of sand paper and ignited. Also there were black powder, a small section of fuse, two eliminating caps and two sticks of eighty-five per cent dyna- mite, each cut into two pieces. F'elts exploded the dynamite which tore great hole in the ground. He de- clared that the force was sufficient to kill twenty-five men

Lammas Day in England.

Lammas, as August / is popularity
called, was formerly our national fes-
tival. 1t remains an important date,
not only in Scotland, where this is a
quarter day, but in many parts of
rural England, where the pasture Of
"Lammas lands" belongs after Au-
gust 1 to all parishioners who draw
smoke, not through pipes, but chin
neys. The word "Lammas' is a cor.
ruption of Loaf Mass, so-called because
on this day it was once customary to
present at church a loaf made from
the new corn. Perhaps some relic OF
this custom still fingers among Sus-
sex farmers, who try to get a Loaf
baked from the new wheat before the
end of Goodwood week. During the
eighteenth century the Dissenters OF
London kept high festival on Lammas
day to commemorate the death OF
Queen Anne. If she had lived they
would have been deprived by the
"Schism Bill" of the liberty of edu-
eating their own children-London

Ants Which Plant and Bake.

The extraordinary habits Of the haTa
vester ant have been known to nat
uralists. Certain species not only har-
vest and store in granaries the seeds
upon which they feed, but actually
plant and cultivate an annual crop
Of their food seeds. Still more re-
markable stories are told of an ant
that is common in Dalmatia, the Mes
o barbarus. According to DIR. Ne
ger Of the Dresden forestry school,
this ant not only cuts leaves and
gathers seed, but actually makes
makes bread or biscuit! The seeds
are first sprouted, then carried into the
sun and dried, then taken back to the
underground chambers, where thay are
chewed into a dough. The dough is
then finally made into tiny cakes,
which are baked in the sun, then care
fully stored for future use. From
these observations it would appear
that the art of cooking is not confined
to the human race.

Common Oriental Headwear.

The fez or tarbush is limited by~no

1t is the almost universal head cover
ing OF the eastern and southern lands

widely distributed in the still active

type of felt hat without brim is of

have undergone no marked change,
save the tassel, from the early monu-

1t is with deep regret that the
pupils of the school learn of the
death of Miss Gardner. She has.
during her three years work in this
school as principal, won a deserv-
ing place in the hearts of the pu-
pills. Twice she was called upon
to fill the place of class teacher,
first by the class of 1912 and later
by the class Of 1914, during their
Junior year. She was director of
the Crescent Literary Society and
was Of great assistance to the
members in their program duties.
AS a teacher she was ever will
ing to assist a pupil and always
displayed a kind gentle and for
giving spirit.
The pupils always looked towards
her for help because she seemed a
guide for all.
Nothing needs to be said as to
her ability as a teacher as the
length of her stay speaks for itself.
The Crescent program given
last Friday was fine in every way.
The Rotations were quite beyond
the ordinary, much better than any
preceding ones this year. The dia
