A turn in the stairs leads to the

Cranmer was imprisoned there, as

same year, 1858, the seven bishops
were imprisoned here.
1t is not certain in what part of
the tower Lody was kept. The au.
thorities were reticent concerning the
details of his execution also. 1t is
probable that if more political prison

present war the public will know

Rupture Imminent.

Rome, April 21.-An open rupture
between Italy and Austria is regarded
by Senator Carafa as imminent. He
declared that negotiations are at {.
standstill and that he expected break
at any time. Prince Won Buelow, Ger
man ambassador, is reported to have
made all preparations to leave Italy
The hour for Italy to enter the war
if she actually does, now is up to the
government entirely. The army and
navy are ready, concentrated at stra
tegic points and poised for the first
blow. There are thousands of troops
along the border, and the fleet lies
in the Adriatic, ready to protect the
Italian coast from Austrian naval
raids.
The greatest excitement prevailed
throughout Italy today. Reports from
confidential sources Indicate that of
ficialdom seems certain the war must
come, and that Prince Won Buelov
is straining his last efforts to prevent
the inevitable.
The Vatican continues to work for
peace.
Rome is quiet today, though it is
the 2666th anniversary of the city's
foundation.

COUNTY DEPUTIES
WILL BE APPOINTED

The signing of Assembly Bill No.
216, April 10, by Governor Johnsos :.
which will allow an increase of depu-
ties in a number of offices in the
courthouse, has given rise to some
speculation as to who will be APP
pointed to fill the positions created
by the passage of the bill.
An additional deputy will be al
lowed the sheriff's office, as it is es-
timated the work there has doubled
in the past years. Sheriff Meadows
yesterday declined to state who the
new deputy would be.
In the auditors office, the force
will be aug nented by person. Under
the old law the auditor was author
lied to employ an additional deputy
j months out of each year and an
nouncement was made yesterday that
Miss Cora f. Nevin, who was EN-
ployed in that capacity before the
passage of the recent bill, will be re-
tained permanently.

Sebastian Case

Los Angeles, April 21.-Edith Ser
kin, aged Il, testified today in thl
case of Chief of Police Sebastian
charged with contributing to her de
linquency.
After completion Of the Jury Edit
Serkin sat beside the district attor-
ney, heavily yelled, until called to the
witness stand. When seated she re-
moved her veil, showing her hair
hanging in curls and giving her thl
appearance of extreme youth. She
smiled at the jury and was not nerv-
Gus. She gave her name and her age
as II years.
District Attorney Woolwine then
began the examination, interrupted al
almost every question by objections
for the defense. The girl answered
in low tones and the jury and coun
sci were unable to hear. The court
was compelled to speak sharply in OF
der to make her talk louder. Then,
under the guidance of the district at
torney, she recited alleged visits of
herself and her sister, Mrs. Lillian
Pratt, with Chief Sebastian to the
Arizona lodging house, adjoining the
police station.

ROOSEVELT LIKE
HIMSELF ON STAND

Syracuse. April 21.-Resuming the
witness stand in his own defense in
the $4,000 libel suit brought by VII
liam Barnes, Theodore Roosevelt por-
trayed Barnes as political boss of
the most powerful type. He declared
Barnes had inherited hold on the
Republican machine of New York
from Senator Platt, that he had
strengthened it., and used it to its
fullest possibilities. He recounted how
Barnes worked with "Chief' Murphy
of Tammany Hall to defeat legisa-
tion at Albany. Barnes sat unmoved
as Roosevelt read letters from Barnes
supporting the testimony. One said:
"The idea of getting rid of bosses
is absurd, so long as we have party
organization. The people do every
thing, but the party should be free
to frame proposals to the people"
The colonel rode rough shod over
all objections interposed by Barnes
cunsel.
SO fast did the colonel talk that the
opposition attorneys objections had
little chance. Frequently they leaped
to their feet and waved their arms.
but the colonel was usually so far
ahead of the story by that time that
the objection was lost sight Of After
the colonel had been excused by the
defense, he was later recalled for fur
ther questioning.

New York, April 21.-It is prob
able that the French reports describ-

Forecasts Of what might happen in

the Germans might develop a new

Several weeks ago the Press quoted F. B. Fllers apt
reply to one farmer who wanted to know when times
would be better The gist of the reply that times
would be better for each individual when he had
thing to sell that the public wanted to buy.
That remark made deep impression, and every few
days the Press still hears of it. And there evidence that
the people have taken the thought heart something
worth acting for everywhere people shaping their
affairs rapidly possible to have more to sell and less

For the time being land speculation is forgotten and
