TURNED UPsBY 4 PAL.
Escaped Convict After 30 Years of
Freedom Faces Arrest.

San Francisco. Feb. 17.-Some-
where in San Francisco there is a gray
haired, smooth shAven man who keeps
a cigar stand and who lives in daily
fear that a crime which he committed
twenty years ago will come out.
For eighteen of these years he has
had living nemesis on his back in
a fellow convict in Atlanta. Ga, who
helped him cheat the gallows. The
two came to San Francisco and all
those years the cigar man was forced
to support his comrade under the
threat that he would reveal the story
to the police.
At last, weary of this shadow on his
life and hoping that he and his old
crime had been forgotten, the cigar
store man, whose name is Will Mey-
ers. drove out the blackmailer. Now,
slowly and surely the old coils are
gathering around him.
The story came. in a letter to the
San. Francisco police from J. W.
Owens, chief deputy sheriff Of At
lanta. Meyers killed a man named
Crowley in Atlanta twenty years ago.
He was sentenced to, he hanged and
a day or two before the time set for
the execution, Meyers and a fellow
prisoner named Gorley escaped. They
came to San Francisco and have re-
sided here since that time. When
driven to make his own living Gorley
communicated with the Atlanta po-
lice and told his story.

Louis Roth Lived 81 Days Without
Eating.

San Francisco, Feb. 17.-Louis
Roth. the Palo Alto tailor whose fast
of 81 days has been watched with
keen interest by scientists, succumbed
To starvation Tuesday evening.
On Monday. the sixty-first day of
his fast. Roth took little orange
juice and water and appeared to be
as normal as a man who had not
eaten for two months could be.
on Monday night he was taken with
pains in his stomach. but these later
subsidized. During the day he sank
into a semistupor of weakness.-x.rSs-
During the afternoon the scientists
at his bedside noticed a growing pal
lor and slower pulse. Then Roth rail-
lied and. up to within a few minutes
of his passing. he was quite conscious
and able to talk with those around
him.
Roth first thought of the possibility
of curing a stomach complaint by
fasting after reading Hereward Car
rington's Vitality, Eating and Nutri-
ton
His weight dropped from las to
IS pounds.

Homer Baltxell. treasurer of the

Mr.. Crawford will not be alone in
the forming of the company. but the
names of the incorporates Will not
be announced until later. Several
changes will be made from the present
system Of running the jitney cars.
1t was discovered that the telephone
call method was a losing venture as 1t
was originally planned. SO the new
ruling, which will go into effect as
soon as the new cars can be placed in
operation, is as follows: For calls
within q radius of ten blocks to Kan
sas avenue, there must be four pas
sengers and a nickel extra. making Is
cents for the trip; for calls within a
radius of 20 blocks of Kansas avenue.
four passengers and a dime extra
These special calls were too expensive
in the consumption of oil and gasoline
to pay expenses, but with the new rule
the jitneys can realize a profit out of
the special calls.
Headquarters for the new corpora
ton will be maintained at the Grand
theater. With fifteen new touring
cars. and a dozen or more individual
cars used in conjunction with them,
Topeka will have a fully regulated jit-
ney service.
