off the gas engine and the submarine
glides along automatically as they dip
under the water and make the ship

closeness is relieved by compressed

Anecdotes.

Speaking of humorists brings us to
the fact that no man living can look
quite SO solemn when producing hu-
more as Irwin S. Cobb. the we'll known
comedian of the Saturday Evening
Post. When Cobb was on the staff
of one of the big New York newspa-
pers he did various news assignments,
some of them mighty serious and 9TH
ers that gave him chance for COM
edy. 1t was standing joke about
the office that anybody could look at
Cobb as he bent over his typewriter
and tell which kind of yarn he was
writing. II his face was all wrinkled
up with solemnity like bloodhound s.
with sad look about the eyes such
as one rarely sees except in an under
takers hostler, Cobb was preparing
something that would make hosts Of
people laugh.

A very brave little fox terrier was

He only succeeded In making the

Denver.-Harold Frank Henwood,
sentenced by Judge Charles C. Butler
to die the week of Oct. rs for the kill
ing of George f. Copeland. will not
hang. His sentence was commuted
to life imprisonment Friday by Cover
nor Ammons, upon the recommends
tion of the board Of pardons.
Henwood has also escaped what ne
dreaded nearly as much as the inflic-
tion of the death penalty. and that is
confinement in the death cell at
Canon City. He will be taken to
Canon City.
The State Board OF Pardons met and
after considering the pleas Of execu-
tive clemency for Henwood, unani-
mously recommended to the governor
that Henwood's life be saved.
The governors order OF Henwood's
commutat.on of sentence follows in
part:
"The policy of capital punishment
is not involved In the present ques-
ton. The question at hand is whether
or not the verdict o. the death penalty
was excessive.
"The present instance is one where
the trial. as reviewed In the courts.
finds the first degree verdict justifi-
able as warranted in the testimony
end evidence.
However. each Of the judges In the
Henwood triaic seems to be strongly
of the opinion that the circumstances
surrounding the homicide do not war
rant the infliction Of the death pen
atty, but believe that life imprison.
ment only should be imposed.
"Henwood was tried for the murder
of Copeland. who was killed while
Henwood was shooting at Won Phul.
He had two trials. and In the first one
was found guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree and the extreme penalty.
that of life imprisonment was i'm
posed.
"Under the careful consideration OF
the circumstances and conditions. !
am OF the opinion that the sentence
OF death was excessive.
81 hereby order that the sentence OF
hanging of Henwood be commuted TO
that of life Imprisonment. and order
that the warden OF the state peniten'
tiary shall so enter this Communication
In the prison records.

vent fire against the American town.

dians. who hurled themselves against
the entertainments OF the Carranza
forces under General Hill. passed to
this village. Seven persons were
