The Fly
By GEORGE FITCH
Aufbor Of AT Good Old SlWnsh-"

he flv is only a little thing but
he is as unpopular as If he were
4 a trust. He is unpopular Tor three
reasons: because he gets up too
early in the morning; because he
comes where he hasn't been invited and
3-because he does not keep his feet
clean.
Tine fly hasn't a thing to do in tn, the
world and could well afford to sleep
until 10 o'clock. Instead he gets up at
davbreak and flies around the nearest
bedroom like a French mOnOplane gong
after the Gordon Bennett cup. When
he has finished 100 circuits he eoois
off bv flying 100 times around the ex-
posed ear of the person who suPPoses
himself to be sleeping in that room:
Then he sits down on the forehead OF
said person and digs holes in his SKIN
with all the vim of small boy eXca-
waiting in a piano with a new jaekknIIe-
Because of these actions a great many
taxpavers awake at > a. m entirely
AGAINST their will and spend the next
three hours hating the fly and planning
for his ultimate ruin

Suspended Sentence Law.

Judge Dan N. Jackson gave the law
yers of Fl PasO the opportunity Of
passing their judgment on the sus-
pended sentence law saturday after
noon. The lawyers showed what they
thought about il by refusing to recon-
mend il in the case of r. A Wilson,
who they sentenced to serve two years
in the state peniten1ary on charge
OF burglary
saturday was the last day Of the
May term of the district court. and
Wilson was indicted that morning by
the grand jury on two charges Of bur
glary growing out Of the theIt OF Two
suit cases at the Hotel Sheldon. One
of the cases was dismissed. He sent
word to judge Jackson that he desired
to plead guilty. Judge Jackson had
y lawyers summoned to serve as the
jury Ballard COldWeu appointed to
represent the defendant, before going
to trial filed an application request
ing the suspended sentence
The lawyers were out about 80 min
utes- Maury Kemp, foreman of the
jury, brought in the verdict, giving
the defendant two years and refusing
to suspend sentence. This makes the
second time that a jury has refused
to remOmmend suspended sentence
When the law first went into effect
those tried on criminal charges IN the
district court coming under the opera
ton of the law after conviction and
sentence were given their liberty The
law has been invoked here in cases Of
criminal assault John Stigal, recently
convicted and given five years on a
charge Of abducting a IA year old girl,
was given suspended sentence His
sentence was the maximum term speci-

sentence could be taken advantage Of

The lawyers received $3.50 for their
services as jurors. This has been the
first time in many years that a jury in
any of the courts has been composed
wholly of attorneys. The organization
of the FL PasO Bar association resulted
from an incident of this kind. Twelve
FL PasO lawyers, sitting as a jury,
conceived the idea of the organization
of the Bar association. The money they
received for the services. they expended
for the first lawyers banquet. From
that time TO the present the annual
banquet Of the attorneys has been a
regular thing.

The fly also attends meals without
being asked, spends long hours IN par
Iors. whose owners he does not even
know by name, and sneaks into kitchens

himself on food intended for others

nothing better than to wade around knee

Mexico has been busy raising money
to pay the army and continue the

for Mexico in the event of American
intervention The rushing of 500
mounted police from this city last
night to Vera Cruz and Tampico is
still unexplained satisfactorily, and
has been ignored by the local press.
Disquieting rumors regarding
Huerta's course4 are being busily cir
culated, but these are impossible to
verify or disprove.
Many distinguished Americans are
coming back from Vera Cruz be-
cause they were offered only steerage
passage to the United States. These
Americans include ladies and child
rem who have Geen in comfortable
circumstances here, but are unable

to the rush orders from Washington
