JEROME FAILS

FOR TRIAL
HEARING SET FOR SEPTEM-

OWN WAY.

COATICOoK, Sept. 6.-W. T.
Jerome, former district attorney

ling yesterday, failed to appear
at the hour set for his hearing
this morning, but his counsel en-
tered his appearance for him.
The hearing was continued until

terday in a machine, saying that
he was going for a little ride"
Allegations that it Is not pos
sible to deport Thaw by the
means SO far employed by the
New York attorneys, are made by
Thaw's lawyers. They base this
belief on an affidavit by Thomas
Rellie McInnes of Ottawa, framer
of the Canadian immigration law,
which was attached to the writ
OF habeas corpus obtained by
Thaw yesterday at Montreal. Nc
Innis asserts the board of inquiry
which ordered Thaw deported did
SO illegally because it failed to
file a formal complaint against
Thaw with the minister of tha
interior.

HOT SPRINGS, ARK, Sept. 6.
More than $500 persons are
homeless and damage amounting
to 100000 was suffered as a
result OF a flre, which ruined 60
blocks late yesterday afternoon
The fire did not burn out until
3 o'clock this morning at the foot
of West mountain, the southern
limit of the city. The burned Sec
tion is half a mile wide, and a
half mile long. Citizens patrolled
the area all night to prevent loot

of the siauation today. 1t is prob
able federal troops will aid in the
WORK of keeping order during the

A great mass meeting was held
today to start a relief fund for
victims. Many large subscriptions
were taken. All business has been
suspended. 1t 1t not believed any
lives were lost.

No offers were made on either
side but the tone of the discussion
indicated the company might be
willing to compromise.
The star witness in the after
noon session was j. r. Thompson,
who was president of the Trac-
tion company before 1t was COB
bled by the Stone-Webster inter-
ests.
He said he had forgotten just
what the road did cost but that 1t
was in the neighborhood of $780,
600. 1t never paid a profit while
they had 1t but left deficit each
month. This was gradually grow
ing smaller, however, and he be-
lieved with the increase in busi-
ness since they quit the company

and certainly will in the years
to come as the franchise runs SO

Thompson showed that in 10
months the company lost $12, 700.
But that was when the business
was divided with two competing
lines and only about one-sixth OF
the population In the territory
that there is now. Besides the
company had big power bills
amounting to $1,000 a month
which Stone-Webster should be
able to cut with their cheap pow

through the front hall.
The residence is occupied by
the family of Mrs. o. J. Hammer,

would find one reason for the de-
hcits of the company in the fact
that Stone-Webster has several
corporations mixed in the thing

Ex-President Thompson said
that he believed 1t the best kind

ist, residing in the outskirts of
San Diego, was instantly killed
in a dynamite outrage that de-

Connolly Guilty

The jury today returned a
verdict of guilty against A. b.
Connolly, the Rosholt druggist
who was charged with the illegal
sale of liquor, but at this writing
the court has not passed sent
ence.
This is the third conviction in
the raid made in the northern
part of the country, which
speaks we'll for the vigor with
which States Attorney Mani and
Sheriff Minder's department
have handled this matter. There
are two more cases yet to be
heard from.
In this connection it might be
stated that the report that
Frank r. Miller is. deputy
sheriff, is erroneous. He simply
acted in that capacity on one
case.

Jury Awards $500
In the Case of Lizzie Humpf-

The case of Lizzie Humpfner
against Chas. Bailly went to the
jury Saturday afternoon. Most
of the forenoon was occupied by
Howard Babcock, attorney for
the plaintiff, and Mr.. Anderson,
attorney for defendant, in their
addresses to the jury, both of
which were ably delivered. In
the afternoon a short and i'm.
partial charge was made to the
jury by Judge Sherwood. The
jury then retired and the court
took up other matters. On the
opening of court on Monday
morning the jury brought in a
verdict for damages in the sum
of $500. Mr.. Babcock at once
moved for stay of proceedings
which was granted, pending a
possible appeal.
The case lasted more than
four days and is said to have
been one of the nastiest ever
heard in court.

They didn't go away hungry,
either, for Deputy MCGEE had
just previously given them their
supper. When he thought they
were through eating, he went
down to put them in their sepa-
rate cells for the night and made
the discovery that they we're
gone. A search revealed that
they had pried out bar in one of
the south windows and squeezed
themselves out through a sur
prisingly small hole. This, by
the way, is the bar that was
sawed off number of years ago
by a former prisoner. At that
time it was put back into place

of steel and was supposed to be
all right. But the Indians proved
their wisdom in tackling it. Out

some of the jailors being killed
some time, as it would be no
trouble to hand in knife or re-
volver. The commissioners have
talked in the past of fencing in
that part of the court house, but
found that it would be pretty
expensive proposition.

this part of the country. It
, seems strange to US not to have
any winds, every day has been

do have windy season and then
the wind blows enough to make

This is quite pretty little city

Should
Own a Ford

The reason | have so much to
say about the Ford is that 1
know it is not only a good re-
liable car but it is the car that
everyone should buy at the
present time. What is the use
of draining your purse for a.
high priced car? If for business
the Ford has no equal, if for
pleasure it is above comparison.
l will speak to men with modern
means and they are in big
majority in this community. Do
you enjoy to waste your money?
Is that really pleasure? When
you buy a high priced car you
may think the purchase price is
not a waste of money but you
will find your running expense
is much more than if you owned
a Ford, so you will soon COM
mence to be stingy about your
drives. Instead of taking a
twenty mile drive after every
hard days labor and enjoy the
health-giving outdoor summer ev-
enings your car is too expensive,
it must stand in the shed and
there too it depreciates faster
because of larger tire decay.
Don't buy car to show to
others, buy a car for yourself
and your family to use. Use it
for business, use it for pleasure,
use it in good weather and use
it in bad weather. Buy a Ford
and you will find it the most
faithful servant you ever had.
Let me sell you one now because
