ACTOR GETS HIS.

Thomas Jones, oid-time pal and
sidckick of Thomas Thomas. husband
of the famous Mary Thomas,
lie platform lecturer, the special
messenger of the United Mine Work
ers Of America to President Wilson.
was this morning given sentence of
IL days in the county bastile by JUS
tice of the Peace Bowers on the
charge of drunkenness and breaking
two glass windows in the house of
one John Johnson.
Jones appeared before Justice Bow
ers this morning as meek as a little
lamb on stormy night. Jones plead
guilty to the charge, stating that he
was drunk at the time and did not
know what he was doing. In view of
the fact that he has already been in
jail three DAYS awaiting trial. the
court was more than lenient with
him.
Jones has been somewhat steady
customer at the city and county
iails. He appears regularly and
pleads guilty TO charge of drunk
cnness and dirtur5ance and gets free
board and room at the city's or
county's expenses.
When the strike was called in Sep
tember of last year Jones 'loyally'
answered the call and since that time
has been living on his three good
American pesos. part of the time and
when he gets hard up he stocks up
with booze and gets free board and
room with the city or county for n
few days.

Miner Who Defends Life from Threats
of Strikers Victim of Union Frame Up

Police Magistrate Hines was
again given the anything but rare
opportunity and privilege to hear a
case which was trumped up and car
ried to the extent by a Greek striker,
a member of the United Mine Work
ers of America. who has been on a
strike since September 23 of last
year. The other in the case was a
fellow countryman who is working
in the mine at Berwind and endeav-
Oring to earn an honest living for
himself and family rather than to
lead the life of an outlaw and de-
pend upon the union for its paltry
three bones a week.
For several weeks past Mike kow-
key, Greek miner employed In the
Berwind mine, has been receiving
letters to the effect that he must
stop working or the union through
one or two of its hirclings would
get him." He had also received
open threats personally that he had
better quit work and join the slaves
at the tent colony. He was told that
according to the Interpretation of the
law as set forth by the United Mine
Workers of America. that it was
high treason for man to work in
a mine for three or four dollars :.
day when he could be drawing three
dollars a week from the union and
live life of ease at tent colony
and all that he would have to do to
be qualified for this high and exalt-
ed occupation was to be able to
shoulder high power rifle in cases
of emergency and resist the forces of
both the civil and military authori-
ties of the sovereign state OF Colo
rado.

cording to special newspapers dis
patch the women workers in the Bel
gian national arms factory at Her.
stal, just outside Of Liege, defended
the village against the German at
tack. The men were away serving
in the army and the women, accord
ing to the correspondent, swore that
the German troops should not take
the factory. They armed themselves
with revojvers and other weapons
with which they repulsed several
charges of the German-Uhlans.
When their ammunition was ex-
hausted the women barricaded
themselves in the houses from which
they poured boiling water on the
German soldiers in the street. The
correspondent says 1000 Germans
were disabled by wounds or scalds.
Children and old men shared in the
defense Of Hersel and on Friday the
Belgian colors still floated over the
factory building.

After numerous threats had been
made and kowkeys life was in dan
ger every time he ventured out of
the mine he began carrying gun
for his own personal protection. His
life was endangered and he knew it
as did several of his other country
men who were working with him
Frequently the strikers had attempt
cd to start quarrel with him. but
he was a peaceful. law abiding citi-
zen and desired to have nothing to
do with them.
The matter came to a head late
Saturday night in the Peoples Cafe
on Commercial street. Kowkey had
gone into the place by himself to get
something to eat. He had been spot
ted by a gang of Greek strikers head
ed by Tom Amato, who followed him
into the restaurant. Amato ap-
rroached Kowkey and after making
several vile accusations and cursing
him, proceeded to try his best to urge
a fight out of him. Finally kowkey
became so provoked that he drew
his gun and ordered Amato and the
other strikers to go away aud leave
him alone. The strikers saw that
now was there opportunity to start
something and crowded Kowkey into
the kitchen. The proprietor of the
cafe became excited and called an
officer who put both kowkey and
Amato under arrest.
Both men We're fined SO and costs

the many cases similar to this tnat

San Francisco, Aug. 11.-More
wreckage from a British vessel
which today was established to
have been man-of-war, is cast up
in the tide south of here. Two
white wooden cabin doors were
found bearing on bright brass
plates, one the legend "Naviga-
tion Officer, and the other
Gunner"
A critical examination of fIot-
sam cast up last nj ght shows that
beyond question it had been splin-
tered and torn loose by an cxplos-
ion.
Bolts and fittings were not only
torn from their seats but in one
instance the brass runner on a
sliding door had been twisted in
to ii tangles knot. An iron re-
enforcement two inches wide by a
quarter inch thick had been
snapped in two.
Portioh3 of the woodwork were
splintered into matchwood and
the general effect of the damage
done was totally dissimilar to
what would have been the work
of even the hasticst and roughcst
dismantlemcnt. One door panel
bore the appearance Of having
been pierced by shell or some
other fragment of flying metal.
Life saving guards stationed
near where the wreckage was
found said they heard firing last
Friday far ont ut sea but paid no
attention to it at the time.
Firing was also heard off the
Salada Beach, 90 miles south of
here at the same time. but subse-
quently was believed to have been
traced to blasting.
The German cruiser sighted off
the Gate today must be either the
! Nurcmburg or the Lcipsig. Best
information would indicate the
latter. The Nuremburg was
sighted near Midway Island. west
of Honolulu on July 80, bound
west. On the other hand the Lcip-
sig sailed hurricdly from Mazat-
Ian in time to be here now.
