For Stealing Jewelry

Louis A. Ciucci was sentenced to
sixty days in Jail by Judge Aukam
in the United States branch of the
Police Court today when he ac-
knowledged taking jewelry belonging
to Karl Hoffman and Frank Barn
hardt. eco B street northwest. Ciucci
said he was drunk and not account
able for his actions.
District Attorney Ralph Given rec
commended a Jail sentence, informing
the court that Ciucci was under bond
to appear before the grand jury on
the charge of forgery. Ciucci last
summer was mistaken for an express
messenger on the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad, and while at Rich
mond. Va, was handed an envelope
containing a c. and Q. check for
$685. 900. He came to Washington
and deposited the check in a bank
to his credit. and the charge Of
forgery grew of his indorsing the
check as c. and o. agent.

VEN though 1t was his own mart, IF and Papa was paying for the re. treatments, that was no reason at all why little Johnny should have set horrible example in the number or plates of ice cream consumed hv one small person, aged ten. But hnally something simply had to be done. So Aunty, who had been a mortified spec tator, managed to get him off in one corner of the room.
 Johnny" she said In a low hut intense tone, "do you know that vou,ve had six plates of ice cream-if you eat another mouthful you'll burst. so there!" 'o
 "Humph!" laughed the little bov Not me! Why. Aunty, who eyer heard of anybody bustin' from ea.,n, ice cream!"
 T once knew boy who did" re- piled Aunty solemnly. "Yes. indeed He just ate and ate and ate until he swelled up and-bang!-burst right into pieces!"
 "Shucks" persisted Johnny. visibly affected. but still sticking stoutly to his guns. "It wasn't the ice cream that busted him, Aunty!"
 "What?" gasped Aunty Then what was it?"

 "Of course they wouldn't" said Spotty. Lets hunt for some nice big juicy grubs and June bugs"
 As they hepped into the high grass at the edge of the garden heavy foot descended near Hubby. He hopped quickly to get out of the way.

 What is it?" asked another voice.
 "A dirty hop-toad," cried the first voice. Let's make him say his pray CTS and then kill him."
 What seemed to Hubby a giant hand reached down and grabbed him. Then the first voice said: Pray! Pray hard before l kill you''
 Pray! Pray quick before we kill you" came the other voice. The hand squeezed his little soft back, and if ever there was a pitiful prayer for mercy, 1t came from Hubby Toad. Toads always talk in song, and Tubby's sweet voiced little prayer ought to have melted even the heart of the boy who in wanton cruelty might kill oth- CT prettier creatures.
 Then another voice came out of the darkness: Hello! what have you there!" it cried.

think Goldie's showing off a bit. though, for usually when we ford a stream he either bends his knees and hooks his feet up behind him on the horses back or leans back in his sad- dle and holds his feet straight out in front of him out of reach of the water.
 But I wouldn't advise you boys to try that for it takes a pretty good horseman not to lose his seat and fall off into the stream if the horse should happen to stumble over one of the submerged rocks or his legs be carried from under him by the swift current. You boys just let yours hang-and get them wet!"
