DISMISS CHARGE
AGAINST WARDEN
Sing Sing Reformer Acquitted
of Perjury and Jury
Released .-
By .1.sSocinted Prcss

White Plains. n. Y, March s15.-
Thomas Mott Osborne, prison reformer,
twice mayor of Auburn. n. Y, and for
mer warden of Sing Sing, was acquitted
of the charge of perjury by direction
of Justice Arthur 5. Thompkins to
jury in the Supreme Court here to-day.
Justice Thompkins, in a long opinion,
he Id that Dr. Rudolph Diedling a State
prison commissioned, was without au-
thority under the State prison law,
when he investigated, single handed
Osborne's administration of Sing Sing.
1t was before DR.. Diedling that Osborne
last October committed the alleged per-
jury by swearing, as charged. that he
was without knowledge of certain cases
of immortality.
Justice Tompkins held there was no
perjury committed by Osborne mas
much as the warden had the right to
keep inviolate the pledges given con-
Victs ,who. had confessed their immor-
ality to him.
When Justice Tompltins had rendered
his opinion and discharged the jury
George Gordon Battle. Osborne's chief
counsel, moved that the jury he kept in
its seats and that the trial be begun
Immediately, of another indictment
pending against Osborne, charging
neglect of duty and immortality. Dis
trict Attorney Weeks said he was not
prepared to proceed with the trial and
the Court held this dispute was not a
question for him to decide, and
dismissed the jury.

STATE COLLEGE GIVES METHOD
OF GAS ENGINE FUEL ECONOMY

With the price of gasoline soaring
almost from day TO day. the farmer
who possesses a gas engine must nat
urally be interested in any method
for economiZing on fuel bills.
Professor e. n. Bates, of the Penn
sylvania State College, in a lecture on
The Farmer and the Gas Engine, -
given during the recent Farmers
Week, at State College placed en-
phasis on the possibility of, fuel econ
onfy through the use of a combina-
tion of kerosene and gasoline. Farm
ers were directed to mix these fuels
lightly at first, beginning with a small
amount of kerosene, and if the en-
gine would stand 1t, to work up to a
mixture of possibly half and half.
Professor Bates expressed it as his
opinion that a saving or possibly
twenty-five to thirty per cent. might
be affected by a judicious use of this
combination fuel.

GOT $4,000 FROM
HEARTS OF TREES
Spalding, Violinist. Carries
Fortune in His Hands; to
Play Here

Win Albert Spalding steps upon the
Orpheum stage next Friday evening
he will have in his hands something
over $4,000.
This wealth was obtained some two
centuries ago, from a pine tree and
a maple tree-trees that had laughed,
and sighed, and sang in summer, and
moaned and tossed in winter. These
trees had their moods. Joseph An
thony Guarnerius knew this, and
wishing to give them long life fash
ioned them into a violin. He was a
master craftsman. lie loved his work.
block of straight grained pine wood
was a gold mine to him, and so he
transformed trees into voices that
would sing to the world new song.
His Violins are among the most
precious in the world, Mr.. Spalding
possesses one of these genuine and
almost priceless instruments, with
rare and beautiful tone. He has an
other. which he will use for the lighter
numbers genuine Montagnana
(1T00-174O) worth $4,000. This fa-
nous fiddle maker was a pupil of the
great Steadivarius. The pupil started
his own shop in Cremona, but later
moved to Venice where he felt more
free TO carry out his own ideas.
In the last two years strong pro-
paganda in favor of American artists
ana composers mas Deen sweeping
the country. 1t has had the effect of
securing proper recognition for the
talented and worthy, and giving en-
couragement to the striving and am
bilious. 1t is sometimes a hit dan
gerous to give Instituted praise pre-
maturely. Mr.. Spalding has earned
all the praise thus far bestowed on
him. He has honestly won his place
as the foremost American violinist.
The New York Tribune says he is in
the front rank of the worlds great
violinists. He created real en-
thusiasm" in Baltimore, Boston gave
him a very large audience and the
critics said ''he had not yet received
just recognition from the American
people"
1t is to be hoped that some day we
will dispense with the foreign label
if we have American artists just as
good or better MIR. Spalding is win
ming purely on his merits. He is a
very sincere artist and composer, and
is helping materially to put the United
States on an independent and solid
musical footing. The musical listener
grows by comparing sand analyzing.
Harrisburgers have treated the" for
eigners, Melba, Kreisler, Hutcheson
and Elman royalty this winter. Surely
they will do no less for a good AM
erican.
