Thralls in Jail. Refuses to Talk

Carthage, Mo-, May 22.-John
Thralls, who was brought to the
county Jail Wednesday night to be
held on a charge Of killing Edward
Shelton, is nearly nervous wreck.
He refuses to talk, either to Jailer
Weaver or to his fellow prisoners,
but spends most of his time lying on
couch in the corridor, where he is
detained. No one is allowed to visit
him.
Thralls' brother, r. Thralls, of
Webb City, and a brother-in-law from
Joplin called at the Jail and sent a
written message to the prisoner today
telling him to keep his mouth shut
and not talk in regard to the shooting"
As yet no attorney for the prisoner
has called at the Jail to consult with
him. Whoever is employed as
Thralls' attorney, however, will be
permitted to see him.
According to Jailer Weaver, Thralls
was considerably under the influence
Of liquor when brought to the Jail.
This is said to have a great deal to do
with his nervous condition.

He Upholds Legislatures Action in
Telegram to Kansas City Mem.
jefferson City, May g. There will
be no extra session Of the Legislature
to consider the insurance situation.
That was settled today in a telegram
sent by Gov. Major to E. N. Glen
denning, secretary of the Kansas City
Commercial Club, who asked the Gov
ernor to hear the committee tomor-
row on the subject. The Governor
said:
"Will hear you as requested. |
learn, however, your committee is
coming to ask me to- convene the
Legislature in extra session, as re-
quested by the insurance companies.
If that is the purpose Of your visit,
then it will be a useless one, as the
subject is not even an open question.
l will not call the Legislature for such
purpose under any circumstances,
and l have so stated a number of
times. The subject is closed and will
not be discussed.
1.-THE Legislature did right when it
repealed the Oliver law. It did right
when it placed the insurance compan-
les back under the old antitrust stat
ute. The Legislature, having done
right, will not ask it to do wrong.
/ will not ask it to feed the state as a
sacrifice to satisfy the hunger even
Of an insurance combination.

MADE HIS SPILL
WORTH WHILE
A Messenger Boy Got New Machine
and His Mother s..

and His Mother 81.
Carl Grow, a t4-year old boy, being
true to the traditions Of his kind,
wasn't in much of a hurry Saturday
afternoon. So he rode his bicycle up
Grand avenue near Eighteenth street
in leisurely, zigzae course. j. H.
Warderman tried to pass him in a
motor car just as Carl described one
of the most elaborate swerves-
right in front Of Mr.. Warderman's
car. Immediate results: One slight
ly bruised youth, one sadly wrecked
bicycle, a dismayed motor car driver.
Lister results: Mr.. Wardesaaa who
had just arrived from Butler, Mo-,
escorted to Walnut Street Police Sta
ton, at Carts advice.
Mr.. Warderman was more than
willing to do whatever Carl thought
was right. The police were more
than willing to have the matter set
tied by arbitration. He, Carl, had
paid IS for the wheel, he thought he
could get another for 81 and he val
ued personal damages at about 81;
total, s.. Warderman paid Carl IS.
Just then Carl's mother, who had
been notified Of the accident, called
up on the telephone and demanded
that things stop right where they
were until she arrived, But by much
persuasion and promise,
Mr.. Warderman and officers at the
station, via telephone, induced Mrs.
Crow to accept a u ante as balm for
her outraged feelings. Carl pocket
ed the additional e and trotted out
the door, all forpetful Of mains that
had made him limp before. Mr..
Warderman pocketed the receipt and
fastened out Kansas City Star.

1t all came about in this wise
Judge Graves was busy writing al
opinion yesterday ont is not wei
to 90 too far with a Judge of the SUI
preme court. The telephone bel
jingled and the judge inquired in
gentle way what was wanted. He
was advised that one of his hive Of
Buff Cochin bees had swarmed and
he must come home Immediately and
look after them.
whats the matter with Jim doing
it?" asked the judge.
Jim is the hired hand in the Graves
rrienaee.
"Jim is afraid" was the reply.
Then Judge Graves shut up his law
books, wiped off his goosequill and
between the street car line and shanks
legs he got there in couple of hours
time.
The Judge is afraid of nothing. He
took off his coat and laid it down; he
removed his hat and hung it on
saw-buck. He removed his-no that
was as far as he got in the removal
line. Then he waded into the bunch
of bees hanging on the tree. He
scraped and showed them into sack.
One of them resented being pinched
on the leg and another objected to
being herded into a sack, so they at
tackled the dignified Judge of the Mis-
souri, supreme court and landed with
four feet and a singer onto his arm.
The judge paid little attention to the
stings until after he got the bees all
into their proper hive. Then he no.
ticed slight swelling on his arm.
The slight swelling soon expanded
into a big swelling and before he
reached the house it was about neces-
sary to cut his shirt sleeve off to re-
move the garment
So that is. one reason the distin-
guished justice has use for an expert
bee hiver. There may be other rea-
sons, but they deal more particular
with political bees rather than the
honey variety.-Capital News.

Unit Law Referendum Urged

jefferson City, NO., May q. 81
More than 1000 names have been
obtained to the petition that has been
circulated in jefferson City and Cole
county, asking that the county-unit
passed by the last General Assembly
be submitted to a vote of the people
at the election in November in 1914
under the referendum.
Retail liquor dealers say they had
no difficulty in getting the signers.
Several hundred also have signed
the petitions for the submission Of
the full crew" law.
The petitions for the submission Of
the St. Louis ''home-rule" act have
been here only a few days and have
not been signed extensively.
The three propositions, with the
proposed constitutional amendments
submitted by the Legislature, will
make a formidable list for voters to
consider at the next election.
While no steps have been taken
yet to that end, it is considered very
likely that the "single-tax'' amend
ment again will be submitted next
year. Should this be done it will
swamp every proposition on the con-
Notwithstanding ballot.

WOMAN. is EXECUTED
Fol. SMOKING OPIUM
Chinese Government Means
to Stamp Out the Habit

Shanghai, Jan 10.-Death as a pun
ishment for opium smoking was meted
out yesterday to a woman of this city
who persisted in the use of the drug
despite the government manifesto pro-
hibiting indulgence in the habit.
By order of the provincial governor
the woman was taken to a public place
and executed by shooting in the after
noon. A large crowd looked on.
The manifesto expressed the desire
for thes OPPRESSION of the evil in order
to save the people from life of deg
radiation, but at the same time voiced
the fear that although the government
was in earnest the people would try TO
evade the law.
The probable collapse of the opium
trade was foreshadowed some time ago
when it was found that Indian opium
to the value of $60,OOO,000 was stacked
in thousands of chests in Shanghai
and Hong Kong warehouses without
finding buyers. After the manifesto
was issued by the government it was
virtually impossible to buy or sell
opium in the coast provinces or the
Yangste provinces, and it was known
that the authorities had been ordered
from Pekiu to enforce the prohibito y
laws.
Today's execution, however, was the
first instance in which they have been
put into full effect.

ROBIN To Serve
YEAR IN The Pen

New York, Jan. 10.-Joseph G.
Robin, skyrocket fnancier, was SEN
fenced today to serve one year in the
penitentiary at Blackwell's Island foc
larceny of $4,000 from the Wash
ington Savings bank, of which he
was an officer. His light sentence
was due largely to a plea for clem-
ency made on his behalf by District
Attorney Whitman.
Mr.. Whitman based his plea on aid
which Robin has given him in prose-
cutting Chas. H. Hyde, former city
chamberlain, and William J. Cum
Minis, in connection with transactions
with the defunct Carnegie Trust Com
pany. Both Hyde and Cummlns were
convicted, and are now in Jail.
Robin has spent % months in the
Tombs since his indictment. Thera
were eight indictments against him
and he pleaded guilt to one. The
other seven were dismissed today.
