LAUGHS AS COURT
FA,SES SENTENCE
Timothy Kelley Says He Was
Never Placed in
Dog House"

After sentencing Timothy Kelley to
public intoxication. Mayor Zimmerman
suspended sentence on the man be-
cause Kelley laughed when he was or
dered confined in the dog house"
Mayor Zimmerman claims that the or
der of the court is not obeyed in
keeping the men in the dog house"
and that there is no use in attempting
to punish some men when Jail officials
refuse to carry out court instructions.
The dog house" is a small cell apart
from the room occupied by the other
prisoners and the purpose of placing
prisoners there is to keep them in sol
itary confinement. The mayor charges
that Sc sent William MCGEE and KEEL
ley to the Jail a short time ago and or
dered them placed in solitary confine-
ment. Shortly afterwards, he found the
men enjoying the liberties of TRUSTEES.
One man who was supposed TO have
been kept in solitary confinement was
arrested for public intoxication with
his Jail sentence but half over. IF il
is not a punishment for these men TO
be sent to jail said Mayor thinner
man, Il will not send them to Jail to
be fed and kept by the county. While
we think they are learning lesson by
being placed in solitary confinement
where they are receiving real punish
ment, they are allowed privileges as
TRUSTEES"

fication for the splendid farewell ten
dered Captain and Mrs. Deuter, in the
following words:
Chairman, Friends and Citizens OF
Richmond:
On behalf of the Salvation Army au.
thorities, l hasten to join with you in
this way in expressing our sincere and
hearty appreciation of your kindness
to the good Ensign Deuter and his
wife.
Lam sorry that they feel compelled
to leave for a few months rest, but
owing to the great strain that has
been upon them, especially since the
recent terrible flood, 1t is no wonder
they have broken down to some ex.
tent. However we sincerely hope that
with rest and care, they will soon be
restored to their post Of duty.
I also thank the friends of Rich
mond for their kindness to the repre-
sentstives of the Salvation Army, in
the persons Of Ensign and Mrs. Deu.

Their successors will be named in
the near future, and we sincerely trust
that the work will go on.
Praying God to bless you all, I re

DIVORCE SUIT FOL-
LOWS HABEAS CORPUS
Louetta Miller Turns Tables
Demanding Freedom and
Custody of Child.

Forty-eight hours after Frederick
Miller filed a petition for habeas cor
pus writ to be issued and served on
his child, Tampa La Sale Miller, less
than one year old, Louetta Miller filed
suit against him for a divorce and the
custody of the child.
Miller in his complaint said his wife
was retaining the child against his
wishes and that she took the child
away from their home, 952 Butler
street. and deserted him. He further
alleged that she is now living on the
Abingdon pike, a mile and half from
Richmond, with William Pugh and is
threatening to take the child to Illi-
nois.
Mrs. Miller in her complaint for a
divorce makes severe charges against
her husband. According to the COM
plant Miller struck, choked, scratched
and pulled his wife's hair on June q.
He promised never to do so again if
she would forgive him. The following
day in spite of his promises, he ord
cred her out of her home and ordered
the furniture dealer who sold them
their furniture to take 1t back, as he
refused to make any further pay
ments on it. On a previous occasion
he is alleged to have beaten his wife
in the face with his fist until she be-
came insensible.

LAGER BEER
Can Be Made at Home For One Cent
Glass.

Cincinnati, Ohio. June 7. 1913
Through a recent invention of an ex-
pert Brewmaster of this city a spark
ling and foaming Lager Beer can be
made right at home for one cent a
glass. He has concentrated Barley,
Malt and Hops, the principle ingredi-
ents of Beer, so that simply by the ad-
dition of water and sugar a genuine
and pure Lager Beer can be made.
Easily made in any kitchen, no appar-
atus, no experience necessary, a few
minutes does the work. 1t is claimed
by many that the Beer made by his
method is better and purer than the
best Brewery Beer, and above all
saves the Brewers enormous profits.
The question of the legality of his
method has been carefully investigat-
ed by the highest authorities and
found to be legitimate in every re-
spect. He has written a very interest
ing booklet giving the Secrets of
Brewing Beer at Home" and by writ
ing to Brewmaster, A. S. Shuh, 1891
Sycamore ST, Cincinnati o., he will
be more than pleased to mail his
booklet absolutely free to anyone
sending their name and address

COUNTY VISITED BY
ELECTRICAL STORM
Telephones Put Out of Com
mission-Lightning
Strikes Fire Box.

One of the severest electrical storms
of the year caused a small amount of
damage in the city last evening. Many
telephones and some telephone cables
were put out of commission by the
lightning, causing considerable loss
to the telephone company. The city
light plant suffered small damage
from burnt out transformers and other
effects of the electric discharges. A
number OF circuits were rendered use
less for time but are being repaired
as rapidly as possible.
Lightning last night at 10 o'clock,
caused an alarm to be rung in from
fire alarm box Number 35 at Four
teenth and South c streets. 1t is beliey-
ed that lightning struck the pole to
which the box was fastened, entering
the box and causing the mechanism to
work. Three companies responded to
On call in the drenching rain.
Several trees and some sheds were
struck by lightning but in each case
the damage was small.
The rain accompanying the storm
was not heavy. but the wind was high.

MUST USE SAND ON
ROAD IMPROVEMENT
Commissioners Take View
Opposite to That Of
Contractor.

John Hipskind appeared before the
county commissioners this morning to
demonstrate against the specifications
of the contract which was let on the
improvement of the Liberty Pike, pro-
viding a cushion of sand on the lower
bed of crushed stone. Mr.. Hipskind
stated that it was not the proper way
to make a road bed and was a detri-
ment to the Improvement.
There is no other county in the
state where such demands are made
of contractors. / believe when the
plans were drawn up by former Coun-
ty Surveyor Horton, a mistake was
made. 1t will put the contractors to
an extra and, unnecessary expense"
he said.
Right to Change Refused.
The commissioners refused to grant
any of the contractors who are now
constructing roads in the county the
right to violate the specifications in
this respect. Commissioner Beeson
Gnid he would show the contractor
where it was not a detriment to the
reads and that a sand cushion was
being used in road construction in
many other counties about the state
The commissioners have conferred
with the bureau of good roads, an af-
filiated body of the agricultural de-
partment of the United States govern
ment, and will only alter the specifi-
cations of the contracts should the re-
port from the government officials rec
ommend that this action be taken.

Talks on the Public Library

or in fact, anything but a book to
read.
This has been true in times past
to some extent, because the right book
has never fallen into your hands when
you needed it.
An effort is being made to make
the government publications more &C
cessible. The catalogues at the IL
brary have just completed the arrange
ment Of the bulletins and circulars
from bureau of animal industry This
covers the field of domestic animals
and all that pertains to them-cattle,
hogs, horses. sheep and goats, and
poultry, their diseases, food and the
animal products.
The pamphlets have been classified
and placed in cases, and catalogued so
that it is question of but a few min
utes to find one. Farmers, veterin-
airy surgeons, dairymen, butter max
ers will find most interesting and val
liable reading in these papers.
Among the papers mentioned above
is a series upon the subject of
cheese"
CneeSe as an article or food has
never been used in this country to
the extent that it is used abroad We
use it rather as a condiment In fact,
to many of us, cheese is a SYNONYMOUS
term with indigestion. 1t is maintain
ed by government experts that cheese
taken in large quantities with bread
and fruit is an extremely digestible
and nutritious food. Particularly is
this true of cottage cheese so cas-
lily and cheaply made in any home.
In these treatises minute and sci
entific directions are given for the
making Of all varieties of cheese-for
is cold curing, ripening and storing
For making those cheeses considered
foreign-Roquefort, Camembert and
mmental-largely made in this coun-
try and exported from here.
Altogether it is so interesting one
wonders that in this rich farming
country We are not all making and
eating cheese.
The circulation for the month of
May in the general department showed
and increase of 4S3 over the same
month last year.
In the juvenile department there
was a falling off, probably due to the
prevalence of scarlet fever. All H.
brary books known to have been ex-
posed to infectious diseases are
burned.

ALLEGED SW|hDLER
ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Guards in Jail At Cincinnati
Save Life of Fred
.. Meyer.

Fred w Meyer, alias George Du
Pont, alias Rheinhart, who was ar
rested at Hamilton, O., by United
States Marshal MCGUIRE and identified
by Otto Sprong, a local mail clerk,
and Chief of Police Gormon as the man
who swindled Semit Amt, a Turk, out
of $3.50 May 5, attempted to hang
himself in the county Jail at Cincin-
natl yesterday.
Meyer was arrested Tuesday after
defrauding Tony Pole, of Hamilton,
out of $35. He is being held on a fed
eral warrant at Cincinnati. He will
be tried on the charge of using the
mails to defraud, and other charges
which Pole, of Hamilton, and Amt, of
this city, have against the man will
be dropped as minor charges.
Meyer tore blanket into strips and
made a rope which he tied around his
neck. When almost unconscious he
groaned, attracting prison guards to
his cell. An electric brush was ap-
piled to his body by the prison doctors
and he regained consciousness.
When he was returned to the Jail
Meyer told Deputy Jailer Setter that
he would try it again as soon as pos
sible. He was assigned to a room in
stead of a cell, and prisoner detailed
to guard him. Meyer said that al
though he was innocent of the charge
he had disgraced his parents and his
wife's parents, and he desired to die
A letter was found in the cell where
he tried to end his life, addressed
Dear Emma" and signed Fred" in
which he protests his innocence of the
charge against him, and says he is
taking his life because of the disgrace,
assures here of his love for her, and
tells her to confer with the German
ambassador in Washington in regard
to obtaining his property.

Who is familiar with the face of the
late Poet Laureate of England? Or,
who can mention solitary poem he
has written, or repeat a line of his
verse? How different from his prede-
cessor, Alfred Tennyson,
Alfred Austin was made Poet Laur-
cate in 1896, four years after Tenny-
sons death. The question arises as
to whom the honor shall be given
now. The name of Kipling naturally
comes to mind and strangely, that OF
the Irish poet Yeates has been men
toned.
But Poets Laureate are not chosen
on account of their ability to write ex-
cellent poetry to order, else Swim
burne or William Morris would have
received the honor instead of Austin,
but they are selected on account of
their political tenets. Mr.. Austin
was Tory. He was a typical Eng
lish country gentleman, fond of fami
ly traditions, landed estates, trees and
flowers. He was more at ease when
he wrote of Neronica's Garden" and
The Garden that I Love-" than when
he sung of Arms and the Man"
No one has been so famous upon
such small capital. Few people have
read anything he has written. His
poems were seldom reproduced on this
side of the water.
Before his appointment he ridiculed
and lambasted his confreres, so that
he himself was not spared by literary
critics. His task was a difficult one
at best. Even Dryden and Tennyson
sometimes had to face the music, but
Austin at Swinford Old Manor could
write nothing more than Indifferent
pastorals, and was not capable of any
thing so virile as Kipling's "Reces-
sional.'
To the average person a govern
ment document" suggests something
to hold back a swinging door, or a
good press for botanical specimens,
