Whether or not j. w. Baker, the

ment of conviction entered in the
Third judicial district court for Ada
county. James r. Boutwell,, judge of
the Fourth judicial district court sat
for Chief Justice Sullivan during the
argument. The state was represented
by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney
Barnes and the defense ~ C. f. Ted
doch and Charles Clifton.
There are two grounds for reversal
of the judgment of conviction and
new trial cited by the defendant
through his counsel. The first is
that the jury received evidence out OF
court The second misconduct of the
jury by which fair and due consider
alton Of the case has not been re-

The state board of pardons. at a
recent session, refused to interfere in
the Baker case or on Bakers applica-
ton for a pardon until the supreme
court lad passed upon the appeal. AT
that time the troubles that involved
the colored pastor were aired.
1t was argued today that the jury
visited the place where the trouble
took place that resulted in Baker S
conviction. In a quarrel he is alleged
to have struck Mrs. Written over the
head with a broomstick, inflicting a
very serious wound, The defense
claimed that the jury, while at the
scene of the crime, and members OF
shat body, talked with Abe states
witnesses, Mrs. Myers and her
daughter, and received prejudicial evil

BIG SAVING MADE
IN EXPENDITURES
BY THE GOVERNOR
Figures Show Remarkable
Reduction From Amount
Spent Formerly-Expects
to Save $350,000.

Not less than $350,00O is to be saved
in the administration of state eXpendi-
lures during the biennial period that
Governor Alexander serves as chief eN-
ecutive of the state. AT least that is
the aim. During the first year of the
biennium he saved no less than $780,
O95.43 in expenditures as compared to
the first year of the Haines admins
tration, 1918. lie believes the saving
of the balance of the $350,000 will be
accomplished without serious inconven-
fence to any department of the state.
The $160,095.43 is the amount saved
In actual expenditures of the state S
administration for current expenses IN
1915, as compared with the eXpendl-
lures in 1918. The total expenditures
of 1918 for current expenses up TO Dec.
81 of that year amounted to $1'335'-
5000. In 1915, the year Just closed,
the expenditures of the state for cur
rent expenses amounted to S1,l75.-
655.47 The claims in 1915, it is gem
orally recognized, were more promptly
paid than ever before and a less num-
Der of these claims were carried over
to 1916 to be paid by the state this
year than there were carried over from
1913 to be paid in 1914.
The records at the state house show
that the total expenditures of the
IIaines administration for current eX-
penses covering a period of two years
were S2,2S4, 59O.69.
Governor Alexander makes the state
ment with the new year that the eX-
penditures in 1916 will be less than in
1o15 oDd therefore the reduction or
amount saved to the people gerater
than in 1915. He promises saving
during the two years of his administra-
ton of not less than $350,000, making
the total expenditures of his admins
tration considerably below the $1,000

this afternoon passed a resolution in
troduced by Councilman Eichelberger
to conform with the recent decision
handed down by Judge Mccarthy in
the injunction case to prevent the city

provides that except as otherwise pro-
Vided by law, the superintendent of

temporary assistants and employees and

that the eXigcncies may from time to
time demand for the efficient conduct
OF the department. 1t further provides
that the superintendent Of any depart
ment cannot expend or authorize the
expenditure Of money in excess Of that
appropriated for his department.
Councilman Harrington opposed the
resolution, declaring that 1t was un-
necessary. tended toward extravaganza
and declared that the latter portion
did not mean anything as there was no
amount appropriated special to any de-
partment except the street department.
on roll call he voted against it. Coun-
Gilman Finegan requested to be passed
stating he was not clear concerning
the resolution and wished to get the
opinion Of the city attorney, who was
then in district court. The other three
members voted for the resolution.

Holy Lands of All RELIGIONS.

Christians call Palestine the Holy
Land because it was the birthplace of
the Christian religion on earth as well
as that of the Saviour, whose birth,
ministry and death are inseparably as
ISOLATED with the, history of Jerusalem
and vicinity. To the Mohammedans
Mecca, In Arabia, is the holy land, it
being the birthplace of Mohammed,
the saviour of the followers Of that
faith.
India is the holy land of the Chinese
and other oriental Buddhists, it being
the native land of Sakya NUM-, the su-
preme Buddha. Ellis, one Of the sew
eral divisions Of the ancient Pelopon-
nesus, was the Mecca and the Jeru-
salem Of the ancient Greeks. The
temple Of Olympus Zeus was situated
at Ellis, and the sacred festivals were
held there each year. The believers In
the Shinto religion make annual pill
grimage to Sitsa Kara, the immense
stone pillar where their supreme ruler
last stood while talking to men.

Detroit, Mich.-Frank Winters, the
man who smoked a hundred cigarettes
a day, was committed to the Pontiac
asylum by Judge Hubert recently In

The incessant use of the cigarettes
was declared by DR.. S. L. Layton, who
examined Winters, to have affected his

gave out and his money too. After
that he begged smokes from the Gus
toners of the saloon, according to Jo-
seph Berman, the proprietor Of the
place
Berman petitioned the court to have
Winters taken to an asylum. A Ger
man by birth, Winters was getting
along well in this country until the
cigarette habit got the upper hand.
Given jobs by Berman, Winters even
lost his power Of application to simple
work.

Pigeons In ConstantinopIe.

In no big city in the world are there
so many tame pigeons as in CONSTANT
nople In many squares in London
there are small fiocks of pigeons, but
in the Turkish capital they are to be
seen by the thousand. These pigeons
are sacred, and, indeed, many a
wealthy Turk leaves money to be de
voted to buying food for them. The
story Of why they are sacred is rather
interesting. When Mohammed, the
Turkish prophet, was flying from his
enemies he hid in a cavern. At the
mouth Of the cavern two pigeons built
their nest, so tradition runs. while
across the entrance a spider spun its
web. The soldiers who came along
some days later felt certain that no one
had entered the cave, seeing the birds
nesting and the spiders web, and so
never troubled to enter it and search.
Ever since then the Turks have held
pigeons and spiders to be sacred.

Changed Words.

The English language presents q
large number of words that have been
completely changed in their signih-
canoe since they first came into use.
In some cases their meaning has been
exactly reversed. A conspicuous ex-
ample of this is the word "let," which
Shakespeare uses several times with
the meaning ito hinder" Hamlet ex-
claimed, "I'll make a ghost Of him that
lets me-" of course him that stops
me-"
The word is used in the same sense
In the Bible, as In II Thessalonians ii,
Tile who now letteth will let until
he be taken out of the way"
"RaveP' and "unravel" mean exact
" the same thing, although at one
time to unravel probably meant to
reduce confusion to order. Compare
the words valuable" and invaluable
and "1oose" and "unlooSe."
AS used frequently in the Bible pre-
VENT instead of meaning to hinder"
means to ''precede" or "go before"
which is, of course, its chronological
meaningless Angeles Times.

COST A DIAMOND FOR
EACH TIME TILTED
Youth Has Only Three Remaining OF
Original Seven In Loeket-HoPes
to Find O True Lover.

Kansas City, Mo.-A well dressed
Young man walked into a loan office
here. He brought forth his pocketbook
and paid the interest on money he had
borrowed on locket-
Then he asked Frank Nevin, ap-
praiser, to be allowed to see the trim
ket Nevin produced 1t. The young
man examined it and grew confidential
'That locket," he said, represents
four love affairs gone astray. You will
notice four of the seven diamonds with
which it was originally set are missing.
It was four years ago that I became
engaged the first time. The girl sug-
gested take diamond from the locket
for our engagement ring. I have been
engaged three times since, and every
time have used one Of the diamonds.
The girls have broken their engage
ments and then kept the ring.
"You see these three remaining
stones? hope to be able to find girl
that will keep her promise before they
are all gone"
Mr.. Nevin said the diamonds in the
locket were worth about S75 each.
