"Milestones, the three-act comedy
drama by Arnold Bennett and Edward
Knoblauch, will be the attraction at
the New Academy Of Music, Balti-
more. this week, presented by klaw
& Erlanger and Joseph Brooks.
The story Of 'Milestones" covers
three periods. 1850, 1885 and 1912.
All the aetibn takes place in the
same room, in the same house, but at
each rise Of the curtain marked

guage. their manners and the trend
Of their thought.
In the progress of the play there
are innumerabls subtle changes from
act to act that carry out the wonder

generations. and that 60 to make
up that fidelity to details that il
usually referred to as atmosphere,
and which is responsible for a part
of the tremendous success of this
nest unusual play. For instance, il

In the rrst act, which is in the
period Of 1860, Rose Sibley, the

in 1912, the third act, we have the

of 10000 acres of coal lands valued at
10 million dollars. The cases which
have been pending several years, are
known as the Matanuska river (Alas-
ka) coal land cases.
The principal defendant is A. G.
Frost, former president of the Alaska
Northern railroad, former president
and promoter of the Chicago & Mil
waukee electric road, and president
of A. c. Frost & Co.
The indictments we're returned by
the Federal grand jury here two years
ago this month. In addition to Mr..
Frost the men indicted we're George
NJ. Seward, Chicago, receiver for A. c.
Frost G. Co.; Pierre G. Beach, Chi
cago, secretary and treasurer of the
Frost company; Frank Watson, Spo-
kane, Wash; George A. Ball, Muncie

er; Duncan NJ Stewart, Seward Alas
ka, former manager of the Southern
Bank of Toronto, and Harry C. Os
borne, Gwyn L. Francis and Franci;
H. Stewart, bankers and brokers Of
/ Toronto.
The alleged conspiracy was --begur
in Chicago on April /, 1908, accordinG
to the Indictment and Frost, Ball, Os
borne and Gwyn L. Francis were t
have been the chief beneficiaries. Tht
acquisition of the land, the indictmen
reads, was to be effected by unlawful
/ fraudulent false and collusive loca
tions, preferential rights to purchase
and final entries and locations unde
coal land laws. There are two count
in the indictment. The penalty pre-
vided is a fine of $4,000 or imprisor
ment for two years on each count,

thereafter he entered the bank, wrote

NEAR "Ex-PREslDENT" BREACHES
SERMON IN UNITARIAN CHURCH
AND SAYS GOODBYE.

Washington, March 3.-Sunday was
day of farewells for President Taft,
He began his last Sunday as president
with a brief sermon to the congrega-
ton Of All Souls Unitarian Church,
where he has worshipped for four
years; bade adieu to the wives and
members of his cabinet and at a last
formal dinner given by Secretary Mac
Veagh and observed the custom estab-
lished by George Washington and kept
green by presidents ever since of Wis
iting Georgetown University In be-
tween times he took up with Secretary
Hilles many important matters which
he wishes to see settled before he
turns the reins of government over to
Mr. Wilson. Today he will meet the
cabinet in special session and probably
say goodbye to few close friends
and to the employees about the execu
tive offices and the White mouse.
The presidents sermon Sunday was
devoted largely to a discussion of the
Unitarian faith, which he said he ex
pected to see absorb the world.
ut has always been a wonder t.
me why all the world is not Unita
rian" said the president, 81 think al
the world is verging in that direction
We preach the doctrine of sweet fe
lowship, of love of God, of love G
Jesus Christ and of tolerance, fo
every faith depends upon the grea
principle of liberal Christianity-an
that makes for progress toward mi
rality and higher religion. The on
trouble we suffer from, if it be tro

rians in other churches who do not S

Mayor Batson's court for an hour
this morning was busy place, while
he with ease and dispatch, disposed of
a rather full docket which had accum-
ulated since Saturday morning.
Horace Sullivan was tried and con-
victed upon a charge of retailing and
was given fine of $50 and cost, from
which judgment he appealed to the
Circuit court, avowedly for the purpose
of securing time in which to settle
the fine and costs.
The proof in this case was that
large beer drinking was INDUCED in by
a party of negroes on Saturday night
and the testimony showed that the par
ticipants had each paid 75c to Sullivan
who had purchased the beer. The claim
that it was a simple friendly celebra-
ton of the hosts birthday did not in
fluence the mayor to grant respite
for the fear he might thereby make
birthdays too common in certain cir
cles to retain dignified consideration
for the glad natal day celebration.

$500 that he had collected from a Gus
