ANOTHER TRIAL IS
GRANTED BECKER
NEW YORK POLICE LIEUTENANT
CONVICTED OF MURDER, GETS
CHANCE FOR LIFE.

Albany, N Y, Feb. 24.-A new trial
was today granted Charles Becker, the
former New York police lieutenant I'M
der death sentence for the murder of
Herman Rosenthal, by the court Of ap-
peals.
The court stood six to one, Justice
Werner filing the only dissenting opin-
ion. The convictions Of the four gum
men, who appealed with Becker, were
unanimously affirmed.
The reversal was based entirely on
errors held to have been committed by
Justice Golf during the trial. The ques-
ton Of the weight of evidence against
Becker entered in no way into the opin-
ion, though 1t was discussed.
Judge Werner held that the convic-
ton should be affiremd because the
main fact tended to prove Beckers
guilt. He said that the fact that the
main witnesses were gamblers, Grimm
ais. degenerates and murderers should
have nothing to do with the decision.
He said there was nothing to authorize
the court of appeals to invade the prov
ince of the jury nor to decide in ad-
vance what must be done on another
trial of a similar state Of facts"

EXTENSION PLAN
PAYS IN KANSAS
INCREASE IN INQUIRIES ARRlv
ING AT STATE UNIVERSITY is
SUBSTANTIAL PROOF.

! Lawrence, Kan, Feb. 24.-The
growth of the municipal bureau of the
University of Kansas extension divi-
sion shows, at least in a part, how a
whole state goes to school at the uni
versity. Inquiries were received dur
ing the month of January from forty
seven cities which is an increase of
l, 200 per cent over last year.
These inquiries cover many prob.
lens that grow up in the administra-
ton Of city affairs. They concern
building codes, commission govern
ment, electric lighting plans, gamb-
ling, pool hall regulations, city mark
cts, municipal ice plants,i plumbing,
social centers, water works, meters,
fire protection and municipal account
ing.
Different departments Of the uni
versity answer these problems. The
law school considers questions on
legal problems, and its faculty draft
ordinances. The school of engineer
ing attends to inquiries on water
works and electric lights and holds
consultations with city engineers.
Most of the questions are from the
Kansas League of Municipalities, al
though twelve, inquiries came from
non-members. Eleven replies have
been sent out of the state, two to COL
.leges and universities, four to civic or
CARNATIONS and one to the National
Municipal league.
Other departments of the extension
division also are growing. In January,
1913, 500 package libraries were sent
out, and last month 1853.
This work has grown so that it is
no longer possible to answer inquiries
from outside the state. Most of the
patrons Of the extension bureau are
city and county officials, high school
and college students and members of

Mardi Gras Festival.
Throughout the Latin world the
carnival spirit will reign supreme TO-
day and tonight. Mardi Gras, Shrove
or Fat Tuesday, the last day before
Lent, is observed today but in most
cities the festivals extend over many
days, with the principal events yes
terday and today. The word ''carni-
val' is from the Latin ''carni-vale,"
meaning farewell to flesh" and hence
is very appropriately applied to the
Mardi Gras fiesta. In North America,
New Orleans has long been noted for
having the most impressive and elabor-
ate celebration of Shrove Tuesday.
The day is generally observed in all
the Latin countries of Europe and
South and Central America. Paris, Lis
bon, Rome, Madrid and hundreds of
smaller European cities, give way to
the spirit Of mirth before DOMINIC the
sackcloth, but the greatest Of all carni-
walls is that held annually in Nice.
In England several centuries ago
Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras was
ushered in with what was called the
pancake bell and the day was popu-
larly called pancake day" Griddle
cakes were necessary accomplish
ment of the festival season preceding
Lent and they must have been hor
rible connections, for Taylor, seven
teenth century poet, tells us that after
the Ignorant people, had devoured
the cakes Every greedily,' ''their wits
forsake them, and, they run stark mad,
assembling in routs and throngs Of I'M
governable numbers, with uncivil and
civil connections. The "wheats" Of |
the quick lunch counter may be lack
ing in digestibility, but they have no
such effect as the pancakes of the |
good old times.
