LAGGARD JUDGES
 LOCKED IN PRISON

From the New York World.
 County Judges Robert H. Roy and John Hyan of Brooklyn had a taste yesterday of prison life which they had not bar gained for when they agreed to accom- pany Miss Katherine B. Davis on a tour of inspection of the penal institutions on Blackwell s. Rikers and Hart's Islands
 The inspection trip was arraigned so that judges and justices who sentence prisoners to these institutions might see just where and how the prisoners are confined. When the commissioner of cor rections and her party left the mems re- formatory on Hart's Island they missed Judge Roy and Judge Hylan. A search of fully five minutes was necessary before they were found Hooked up in prison.
 When the commissioner questioned the keepers they explained that the chief oi the bureau of standards had told them that the party had left. Consequently they locked the building.
 E The party consisted of Judge Henry B. Lewis, Judge John J. Freschi, Justice Robert I. Wilkin, Magistrate Charles E. Simms and Dr. and Mrs. Ernest F. Bishop, Mrs. Harrison Morris and Mrs Esther Smith, members of the State Prison Re- form association of Pennsylvania, and Miss Helen Davis, the commissioner s sister.
 In the Blackweli's Island prison Judge Freschi saw several prisoners he had sent there for using drugs. Their health Ia better. they sAid, and one of them thanked the judge for sending him to

A CORNER IN ANCESTORS
By FRANCES cowLEs. THE HAM FIR FAMILY

Variations of the name of Hamer are Haymer. Hammer, Hamerton. Hamer- ling and Hamersley.
 The deriviation may be from the An elo-Saxon word ham. meaning home. which forms part of many old names of localities one variation of ham Is mama
 The old German for home is hamei helm is modern German. Haem is an old French word meaning the same thing. Haimes is Gothic. A name found IT, seventh century records was Haimo, also spelled Aymo. In the eleventh century we find in England the name Haymes, from which Aymes and Ames gre derived.
 Heimard and Aimard are also found in old records as family names. Through a process of evolution, Hamer may be derived from these names, and Tn the first Iase, from the Anglo-Saaon ham, Another theory advance by au thorities is that hari is the root. This Is a Morse word meaning hero. and from which came Himir family name cf centuries ago. Hamer is not i'm possible from Heirmir. Homer and Omer are derived from the root Mari hero. a warrior.
 The first of the name in this country was Capt Ralph Hamer-also spelled Hanor He came from London with Lord De Warr in 1610 and was one of the 'knights and gentlemen of equal iry" who arrived at ,hat time to be- come one of the founders of James town Va, and was appointed clerk of the council. afterward a member of the kings council and secretary of the colony.

Baby's Happiness
 Depends On Health

Cross fretful babies usually need a laxative to make them comfort able, and comfort begets happiness. Constination is the cause of much discom fort. Mothers should watch closely the condition of their child rens bowels and see that they are regular.
 mild, pleasant tasting laxative such as Dr. Caldwel1s Syrup Pep sin, is ideal for children because of it's natural composition and gentle action. and because it contains no opiate, narcotic or other harmful habit forming drug. Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists everywhere. X teaspoonful at bed time will bring easy, certain relief. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. w. B. Caldwell. 452 Washington St. Monticello, Ills.

VOTE iNTEllIGENTLY.

When man does his full duty
as voter he casts his ballot for
the men that will fill the respec-
tive offices to the greatest advan-
tage of the public, quite regardless
of his personal likes and dislikes
for the men in social ways.
Just at present. the voters in Fair
banks have selfish interests at stake.
for the city IS just budding into a
promising municipality that must be
fostered and cared for, like a ten
der plant, until it gets well estab-
lished A little mistake now may
hurt the city for all future time.
Therefore the voters, and especially
those who have property interests
here. should look well into the sit
uation before casting their ballots.
In the past, the city councils have
platforms Of the individual candi-
dates. If the candidates have had
any 4rt of platform, it has been
one of generalities, and thus could
be twisted and changed to suit his
pleasure after election.
The thing, then, that should be
determined before candidate is
voted for is just what he intends to
do to improve the city's welfare.
This information should be specific.
He should say in what way he hopes
to reduce expenses, or how he hopes
to improve city conditions. Gener-
alities should receive no weight with
the voters. Most of the candidate
are quite well known, and it is pos
sible for most of the voters to ask
their favorite candidates for def
mite explanation that will bind them
TO something if elected. A little
more care in this way may result
in getting for the city a council that
will prove efficient in every way.

guns at the officers, none of the
shots taking effect
Mr.. Hamilton was sitting in di
rect line between the officers and
the gun man. He sank down in his
seat as low as possible but not low
enough to keep bullet from the
gun of one Of the detectives, from
passing through his soft hat. That
hat he is keeping in memory of the
incident
On another occasion Mr. Hamil-
ton and George Blonde, the Gold
stream mining man who returned
from the Outside about month ago
were sleeping in Seattle hotel.
Mr.. Hamilton was awakened in the
night by hearing somebody in the
room. He jumped out of bed and
made a grab for the person, but
succeeded in doing no more than in
keeping the thief from getting away
with his and Blondes clothes. Blon-
dos trousers were carried out in the
hall by the thief who. however, left
them and the valuables they contain
ed behind in his efforts to escape.

| anana Woman IS
Seeking Divorce

In the office of the clerk of the
district court Saturday, Mrs. Matte
l.. Corning, by her attorneys Louis
X. Pratt and son, filed suit for di
vorce from her husband, William
Corning. Her petition recites that
she is a resident of Tanana, where
the couple were married on February
27, 1912.
Grounds for divorce set forth in
the complaint in the proceedings
are that the defendant treated the
plaintiff in a cruel and inhumane
manner throughout the time the
couple lived together. Aside from
praying for a decree Of divorce, the
plaintiff asks that she be allowed
to resume her mainden name OF

DRISCOLl BILL GOOD.

Taking it as whole, the cleo
representatives of the Alaska legis-
lature by Dan Driscoll, OF Fairbanks.
is a good one, and is we'll adapted
to the needs of this territory. The
bill has evidently been modelled after
one Of the best Australian ballot
laws of the Outside, the only change
being those made necessary by the
conditions that exist here. At this
writing the passage of the bill seems
assured.
One of the good features of the
DILL is that it will permit legal
voter in Alaska to cast his balo,
in any part of the territory that he
may be at the time of the election
This is made possible from the
fact that in Alaska the ticket az
the general election does not carry
the names of candidates for local 20
sitions.
The bill as prepared provides for
the secret ballot, and the inabiIlt,
of any person to vote marked ba
lot. 1t takes load off the should
ers of the judges by requiring the
voters to sign their names to af
fidavits certifying that they are legal
voters, which makes it unnecessary
for the judges to pass on the quail
fication of each voter
Under the proposed law. there VII
be but one ballot, which will bea.
the names Of all candidates, regard
less of their party affiliation. O.
posite the name of each candidatA,
however, will be a statement showin
his party affiliation.
bill is the meager punishment provid
ed for people found guilty of its
violation. For violating the law a
person may be fined from $50 to $3.50
or be imprisoned from 10 to 60 days
This is not enough to make election
tricksters afraid of tampering with
the law In nearly all the States
the violation of election laws is
punished by penitentiary sentences
This, however, is not a serious
handicap to the law, and can br
amended at any future time. The
main idea now is to get a law pass
ed which will improve the present
loose system, and the measure will
certainly accomplish that end.

Holdups and Thefts
Plentiful Outside

Alex Hamilton, who lately ar
rived in Fairbanks from the Outside,
tells a number of stories concerning
holdups and robberies. Generally
speaking, Mr.. Hamilton says that
the Pacific coast cities have never
experienced such a wave of crime
as is now sweeping over them. Mr..
Hamilton himself had some very
narrowing experiences while Out
side. although he was not intimately
associated with the crimes, as a
victim.
On one occasion he was going to
the outskirts of the city of Los
Angeles on a street car. Cars on
this same line had been held up re-
peatedly by highwaymen, and the
money on hand taken from the con
ductors. On the evening in question
there were two plain clothes men on
board.
When the car was nearing the
suburbs of the city lone highway
man jumped on board at the rear
end and flourishing two revolvers,
ordered all of the passengers to hold
up their hands. However, he had
not figured OH meeting the plain
clothes men who, coming from the
forward vestibule of the car, opened
