In Police Court

One drunk was before the municipal
court Tuesday and was let off with the
payment of the costs He was arrested
Monday night on Temple street by Pa
trolman Cunningham and at the time
was trying to make out that he was an
officer. Owing to the fact that he had
been drinking he was taken only on
the drunk charge. When the sentence
was announced he informed the Judge
that he had but 81 and as the costs
came to 1885 he would be practically
broke If he paid that amount, he would
not do it. He offered to settle for 50 but
the judge informed him that the court
did not do business that way. He then
declared that he would take the alter
native Jail sentence, as the judge had
sentenced him to Is days in Jail and to
pay the costs with the Jail sentence sus-
pended on payment of the costs, he
thought that he would have to serve
but Is days, but when he found that
instead he would have to remain the
guest Of the county for Is days his de-
sire to take the Jail sentence faded
and he promptly paid. L. F. Jealous
was also before the court on the charge
of violating the traffic ordinance, the
complaint alleging that he drove up
the wrong side of Main street. He
pleaded guilty and was fined the costs
which he paid.
1t was announced by the police Tues
day that they were after a number Of
fellows who had been violating the traf-
fic ordinances and that it was proba-
BILE that several arrests would be made
in the near future,

Napoleon and a Submarine.

The idea Of submarine navigation is
not so modern as many people imagine.
When Napoleon was banished to st.
Helena a notorious smuggler named
tombstone conceived the idea Of assist
ing the dethroned monarch to escape.
In SCOTS Life of Napoleon" he says:
"A submarine vessel was to be the
means of effecting this enterprise. 1t
was thought that by sinking the vessel
during the daytime she might escape
the notice Of the British cruisers and
being raised at night, might approach
the guarded rock without discovery.
The vessel was actually begun in one
of the building yards upon the Thames
but, the popularity of her construction
having occasNned suspicion, she was
seized by the government"

Danish West Indies
Near us. Possession
Valuable Naval Base Acquired after Long Dipo
matte Negotiations Dating from Time of
Civil War-$25O00, the Price

Washington, July 25.-Oficial an
nouncement was made at the White
House today that negotiations have
practically been completed for the pur-
chase Of the Danish West Indies by the
United States from Denmark for s25,-
900, 600.
1t is understood that the United
States would come into complete pos
session Of the islands. Word has been
received from Denmark that the
treaty is virtually certain of being rat
flied by the Danish parliament.
Chairman Stone Of the Senate for
eign relations committee saw President
Wilson today but said afterward he
did not discuss the purchase of the
Danish West Indies and knew nothing
of the question. 1t is understood the
government hopes that the treaty will
be ratified during the present session
of Congress-
OF First Importance to Navy
The three islands of the Danish West
1ndies-St. Croix ST Thomas and ST.
John-lie due east Of Porto Rico and
their value to the United States is
stragetic from military point of view.
The harbors of ST. Thomas and St.
CroiX are of first Importance to the
American navy and st. Thomas itself
lies in the lane of shipping from Eu-
rope to the Panama canal. Important
German and French and English mail
companies have coaling stations there.
The acquisition Of the islands by the
United States has been the subject of
unsuccessful diplomatic negotiation
since the Civil War. Secretary Seward
began negotiations for their acquisi-
ton in 1865 because the naval opera
lions of the war had shown the neces-
sity Of a base on the West Indies. A
treaty was made and ratified by Dem
mark, but the United States Senate
failed to act on it in proper time and it
lapsed.
Once Offered for 100000
Intellectual efforts were made to re-
open the negotiations during President
Grants administration and in 1902, soon
after President Roosevelt came into
office. Secretary Hay took up the SUBJ
ject and Denmark offered the island for
S. 100000
The United States Senate this time
ratified the treaty but the Danish SEN
ate defeated 1t, 1t was said at the time
