CARD GAME
ThaW DiSCIdimS Interest in New
Case; Caused by Penny

FACES A LONG JAIL SENTENCE
Associated Press.

Associated Press.
O0ATICOOK, Que, Sept. 5.-Will-
lam Travers Jerome was arrest
- ed here today charged with gam
bling. The complaint was made by
Milford Aldrich. who swore that he
saw Jerome playing poker in public
yesterday. Jerome was taken to the
same Jail where Th>w was confined
when he Was brought here two weeks
ago.
Thaw's lawyers disclaimed all
knowledge of the arrest. The belief
prevailed that 1t was due solely to
the i'll feeling among the townspeople
who resent Thaw's presence
Jerome was surprised when he was
arrested, and could hardly speak
Yesterday he had INDUCED in pen
ny-ante game with the newspaper
men while sitting in an automobile
waiting for the end of the Thaw
hearing. The news of the arrest flew
over the town like wildfire, and in
the meantime the Thaw hearing was
adjourned.
A. c. Hanson, the crown prosecu-
tor, issued the warrant, saying that
Jerome would have a hearing within
"a hours.
A pro-Thaw outbreak followed the
arrest, and crowds about the Jail
shouted 'Hooray for Thawl Now
We'll deport Jeromei''
Jerome was locked in a small cell
and no one was allowed to see him.
At IL O'Clock he had not retained
counsel.
Aldrich is mill hand The charge
is common gambling on railroad
property" The maximum .penalt,A
according to the prosecutor, is one
years imprisonment, with no option
Of a fine.
Although Jerome can be brought
before the magistrate within As
hours, it is possible that he may be
held until the 47th hour before be-
ing arraigned, according to the pros
ecutor. Then he will be remanded
to the jail in Sherbrooke to await
the action of the grand jury of the
kings bench in October. However,
as soon as he is remanded he can ap-
ply for bail.
Shortly before noon Jerome was
admitted to $500 bail and left the
jail smiling.
Prosecutor Hanson announced this
afternoon that Jerome would be ar
rested any time he attempted to leave
the city. on the ground that he in
tended to jump his bail.

Motorbike Trip

P. A. Johnson. formerly in the
paint business here. has returned
from his long motorcycle journey to
the northwest. He made over 400
miles on his single cylinder Harley
Davidson without breakdown. There
were many hardships in the trip and
he found many bad roads. The Mid
land Trail from Grand Junction to
Salt Lake City. is the best route
followed" declared Johnson. The
northern Nevada road was almost i'm
passable declared the rider.
Mr.. Johnson went to klamath
Falls, Ore, and shipped his machine
back. returning home by way of Sac

to stand another trip as it is as hard
as the one he has just concluded.
He will remain in Grand Junction

Kansas to join his wife. He expects
to locate permanently here and ply
his trade as contracting painter.
