ed Tainted Food and Cause for
Riots.

San Francisco, April 9.-Although
Donald Lowrie in San Francisco had
arranged for the assembly committee
to listen to the stories of a long list
of former convicts, the lawmakers de-
cided yesterday they had heard
enough from such source and con-
cluded to confine the rest of the in
quiry to digging for new evidence at
the penitentiary.
Two former San Quentin convicts
We're heard, They rehearsed only
what is now known-the serving of
tainted meat and vegetables; alleged
failure of Warden Hoyle to answer
complaints about food conditions; the
alleged hostile attitude of guards and
stewards toward prisoners who pro-
tested against the meat furnished
them; the widespread discomfort
which ended in the bread riots last
June; the summary punishment of a
few men for what hundreds had done:
the treatment of men thrown into SOL
itary confinement for rioting; the use

DOLLAR PATCHES A SKULL
ARKANSAS Doctor Hammers Out
Homemade Plate

Omaha, Ark.-John Crickmore, of
this place, will always have one dol
lar on his person, but it will never be
valuable as a cash asset, as it lies in
the front part if his head over a Jag
ger hole more than two inches long
and one inch wide.
Crickmore got in a fight several
days ago and his skull was crushed
in by rock thrown by Alvin Roberts
DR.. W. A. Butts. who was called, had
to have something at once to cover
the opening, Crickmore being in too
grave a condition to be removed to
a city hospital, and there being no
time to order silver plate.
The doctor did the next best thing;
he made one. He took silver dollar,
and heavy hammer, and beat it out
to fit the hole. He sewed up the scalp
and John is now recovering.

BLIND MAN Is A MINER.
One OF the Best Workers Employed
by Kentucky Company.

Pineville. Ky.-The Long Noun
tain Coal company, at Chemoa, this
county, is probably the only mining
company in the state having in its
employ miner who is totally blind,
and the remarkable fact of it is that
the blind man is one of the best coal
diggers in the employ of the company.
His name is Hays Mattingly, thirty
five years of age, and he has been to.
tally blind for seventeen years. He
works in his room" in the mine alone,
shoots his coal, loads it and pieces
his props with all the precision of a
man blessed with sight.
Mattingleys coal comes from the
mine free from slate and dirt. He al
so goes from his home to his work in
the mine without assistance. His
wages average with the best men at
this mine. He Is a native of Jack
son county. KY.

The resolution, unanimously adopt
ed, directs every woman's club in the
district to carry on a dress reform cru
sade in schools, churches and depart
ment stores
Many women who spoke in favor Of
the resolution said the daring now
displayed in the dress of women was
the result of an innate desire to please
the masculine eye.
1T is a heritage from Mother Eve
said Miss Mae Bradley, a visiting club
woman from Denver. Miss Bradley
also asserted that women had de-
clared sartorial independence, and,
therefore, probably would flout any
effort to make them dress in any way
that did not please men.

INCENDIARY SETS FIRE

Albany, Ore, April s.-An incendi-
ary made second attempt to burn
the Methodist church south in this
