Britton was sentenced 20 life I'M

but his attorneys managed an appear
so well that his term was REDUCED.
While in the county Jail Britton caught
the spirit of flight which hoyers over

At once the news travelled abroad
that here was sure-enough inventor

EX-MOOSE LEADER
GETS $4,000 JOB
George l.. Record to Go on Fed
eral Trade Board as
Wilson Gift.

George l. Record Of Jersey City.
Progressive leader, will be appointed
on the recently established Federal
Trade Board as one Of the two Repub-
lican members for term Of six years.
at an annual salary o. $4,000. The
information that President Wilson has
chosen Record comes from reliable
source and occasions little surprise, for
the President considers Record a man
of unusual ability, and they have been
friends since the President entered
politics when he became the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of New
Jersey.
The Progressive movement was then
forceful and Record challenged Candi-
date Wilson TO a discussion. An eN-
change of letters revealed that there
was little for debate or controversy. as
they agreed as progressives, and each
spoke kindly of the other. The high
regard of the President was manifest
ed shortly after his installation as
Governor as he appointed Record on
the State Taxing board. Records &C
tivity as Progressive has ceased. and
il is presumed he has returned 10 the
Republican fold, but the fact has not
been formally announced.
Record was the pioneer OF the Pro
Cressive movement in New Jersey. lie
started it in Jersey City eleven years
ago when Mark VI. Pagan was the Re
publican Mayor. They formed the
New Idea party. seeded from the
Republican organization and formed
one of their own. They later blended
with the regulars with the expectation
of getting control Of the county com
mittee, but failed and maintained
their own wing. which disintegrated
rapidly after the last national election
and finally vanished

from the races.
Listen in on EN-, Pete" suggested
Dwyer.
Pete listened in. When he returned
he was able to tell what horse came in
first at Juarez and had lot Of other
more personal information. He hadn't
heard anything about how the painters
election turned out.
In less than ten minutes Dryer
automobile had made the trip from the
West 6Sth st. station house and was
disgorging detectives at an alarming
rate. Policemen in uniform began TO
drop from every Broadway car. When
fifteen detectives and twenty uniformed
patrolmen had gathered on West SD
ST.. Dwyer and Sergeant Keller saun-
tered TO the front of the building.
Gamblers Surprised.
Merely leaving a guard at the foot Of
the fire escape ladder in the rear,
Dwyer led his cohorts right up the
front stairs. They burst in the door
In an instant the air was full OF dice,
poker chips, cards, racing sheets and
panicstricken gamblers.
In the front long French windows
open on little balconies overlooking
Broadway. The balconies at a pinch
would hold a couple OF dozen men.
They held that many, and the rest Of
the thirty or so who had gained the
front windows dropped or were pushed
over the railing. They sprawled on
the sidewalk below, to the huge de-
light Of the crowd, who made bets as
to how long any particular man would
be able 70 keep his footing.
Others in the crowd of cornered
eamesters determined to fight their
way out. Gripping fragments of chairs,
table legs and other impromptu weap-
ons, they surged toward the police.
The patrolmen weren't backward about
using their clubs. and more than one
frolicsome suburbanite had bruises a.
well as hardness to explain when he
got home last night.

BRITISH TAX RAIDS
ZIMMERMAN RICHES
One Quarter of Duchess
Of Manchester's Income
To Be Seized by Law.

London. Jan. % Conspicuous head
lines announced to-day that the Ouch
ess Of Manchester had become heir to
the millions Of her father, Eugene
Zimmerman. Of Cincinnati, and that
the will did not mention the duke.
When effort was made by The Tribune
correspondent 10 see the duke. who -
staying az the Royal Automobile Club,
he said that owing 20 pressure Of
military matters he could not be
seen. From tho club windows could be
seen the newspaper placards announc-
ing in big type that the duchess was
the sole inheritor OF her fathers
wealth.
According to a we'll known Ameri'
can lawyer here, the duchess, under
the new British laws, will have 70 pay
an income tax on any money she may
determine to leave invested in Amer
let as we'll as on the full amount she
brings here. Because the regular
income tax and the supertax for
incomes Of more than $4,000 have
both been doubled by the war the tax
il is estimated the duchess will have
10 pay into the British Golfers Is s25,
600 on every 100000 Of income This
s in addition to her income obliga-
tions i'm America.
Because some Engllshmen invested
IN American securities so that they
would not have 20 pay a tax here on
their incomes therefrom recent law
makes such incomes liable to taxation
here. and this, therefore, applies to
the American investments OF the
duchess.

According To Provisions Of
An Ordinance
To Be introduced In Council
Monday Night

An ordinance will be introduced in
council next Monday evening, pro-
viding for a bond issue Of $500 to
erect a new Third Ward engine house.
After the bed-bugs had driven
council from its chamber in the en-
gine house, appropriation was made
of $1,000 to remodel the upstairs.
The matter of suitable place for the
city steel cage came up and COM
mittee was appointed. After going
over the situation carefully, the COM
,mittee came to the conclusion that
it would be economy to construct a
new engine house, since the 81, 900 ap-
preparation for remodeling would be
almost wasted because of the bad con-
dition of the building.

FAIR
Opens With An Entry List
Exceptionally Small

With an entry list exceptionally
small, the annual Knox County Fair
opened Tuesday afternoon. Only a
few people visited the grounds.
The uncertain weather of the sum-
mer has retarded the work of the
farmers in harvesting their crops, SO
that the usually large displays are
kept down. This is particularly no.
ticeable in the case of garden truck,
corn, etc.
The fine arts exhibit, consisting of
needleworok and the like, came near
est to approaching the standard of any
of the showings. A few Mt. Vernon
merchants have arranged booths ex-
hibiting their wares.
AS usual, the races will command
the largest portion of attention and
promise to- be fairly exciting. These
started Wednesday afternoon.

Teachers Social
A Pleasant Event

The annual social of the teachers
attending the institute, held Tuesday
evening in the high school building,
was marked by the originality of the
entertainment.
On entering the building, each guest
was met by one of fifteen men, rep
resenting the father of certain veg
etable or fruit family. The guest was
presented with the particular vege-
table or fruit, done in tissue paper.
The cabbage, pear, peach, apple, ETC.,
were all represented.
After all guests had been assigned
to some certain family, all members
of the group assembled and were led
in games and other amusements by
the father of the family. At the con-
clusion of the evening, refreshments
were served. There were 125 present.
