They Chew Cordite.

One of the troubles of most Euro
pean armies is that those soldiers
who can get hold of it insist on using
that terrible explosive cordite as if
it were a sort of chewing gum.
It's popularity is due to the fact
that when chewed in small quantities
it has a stimulating and eXhilarating
effect, like small doses of alcohol.
Its taste, too, is sweet, cordite being
three-ffths nitroglycerine, an ex-
plosive which is sugary 10 the taste.
When chewed in large quantities
cordite becomes more powerful in its
effects, bringing on a blissful state
of ecstasy, and sometimes making
the victim of the habit see visions.
But the real danger of the habit lies
in the fact that though nitro-glycer-
inc will only explode when given
very hard blow or touched by an elec-
trio spark. there is always a posi-
bility that the grinding of exception
ally hard teeth might provide the
necessary hard blow. Within the
last few years, at least three soldiers
two German and one Austrian
have been blown to bits, the use OF
cordite as a chewing gum being the
SUSPECTED cause.-Philadelphia Led

POLICE SEEK MRS. GRACE.
Requested to Leave HOtel.-Couple
Exposed by Woman Detective.

Westchester, Pa.--Mrs Daisy Ul-
rich Opie Grace, who was acquitted
several months ago at Atlanta, Ca,
after being tried for shooting her
husband, is a fugitive from justice,
following a warrant issued by JUS
tice of the Peace S. NJ. Paxton.
Charles H. Oldham, manager of
the Chester Valley Electric Light
company, also is a fugitive from JUS
tice on a similar warrant Both war
rants charge statutory offenses and
are based upon alleged actions of
Mrs. Grace and Oldham at the Swan
hotel at Downingtown, where, it is
charged, they lived as "Mr. and Mrs.
Oldham" for several months until
last Tuesday, when the proprietor of
the hotel requested "Mr. and Mrs.
Oldham" to vacate their apartments.
The warrant calling for the ar.
rest Of the couple we're made at the
instance of Mrs. Ida Plummer, who
followed Mrs. Grace to DowningtoWn
and became very friendly with her.
After Mrs. Plummer had obtained all
the information she desired she told
the hotel proprietor that Mrs. Old
ham, and Daisy Ulrich Opie Grace
were the same.
Following her revelations Mrs.
Plummer came here and was closet
ed for several hours with District At
torney Sproat and County Detective
Jefferies. The conference ended in
the issuance of the warrants for the
arrest of the couple.
Mrs. Plummer told the district at
torney that she represented the
Mothers Congress and that she was
interested in the case, as she sought
to prevent Mrs. Grace getting a di-
vorce from the husband, who is a
helpless cripple as result of the re-
yolver shot which Mrs. Grace was
accused of firing.
She gave as her reason that if Mrs.
Grace obtains the divorce she seeks
she can gain possession Of her S-year
old blind boy by her first husband,
who is an inmate in an Overlook in
stitution. Other persons declare that
Mrs. Plummer is a detective in the
employ of Grace, who is seeking a
divorce in the Georgia courts, and
that she is a personal friend of Grace.

Given One Year and ZOO Fine for
Violating Mann Act.

Chicago, June 4.-Jack Johnson,
negro heavyweight champion, to-day
was sentenced to one year and one
day in the State penitentiary at Jo-
liet, and fined $1,000 for violation of
the Mann White Slave Act.
Sentence was pronounced on John
son after Federal Judge Carpenter
had denied a motion for a new trial.
Johnson obtained two weeks time in
which to prepare a writ of error and
the bond for 100000, on which he
has been at liberty since his convic-
tion, was allowed to stand.
Half dozen deputy United States
marshals, who had grouped them
selves about Johnson in anticipation
of resistance when the prison SEN
tence was given, left the room when
Judge Carpenter announced that the
fighter would continue temporarily
at liberty.
The sentence to the State peniten-
tiary is the result of recent order
from Washington that all persons
convicted in the Federal Court in
this district should be sent to the
State prison owing to the crowded
condition of the Federal prison at
Leavenworth. Johnson left the
Court room declaring he would not
give up his fight for liberty.
1T has been hard to determine
what punishment should be meted
out in this case," said Judge Carpen-
ter in passing sentence. 1--WE have
had many cases where violations of
the Mann Act have been punished
with a fine only. We have had other
cases where defendants have been
sentenced to one or two years in the
penitentiary.
THE circumstances in this case
have been aggravating. The life of
the defendant, by his own admissions
has not been moral one. The de-
fendant is one of the best known
men of his race and his example has
been far reaching"
1.-The sentence shall be that the de-
fendant shall be confined year and
a day in the Joliet penitentiary and
that he shall be fined $1,000
The Court denied request OF
counsel for Johnson that the negro
be allowed to serve the term in the
city bridewell, instead of the States
prison.
Johnson was convicted May 10 OF
having paid for the transportation of
Belle Schneider from Pittsburg to
Chicago.
