the joke was turned on one of those

cash bond and he had gone to the

had pleaded guilty, the cash bond had
been applied to cover the fine and the
client was at liberty and broke. De-
prived thus, Of his fee, which he had
intended to collect out Of the cash
bond, the lawyer tried to get his man
hurled into Jail again. The court gave

svvINDLERs ARRESTED

Dunlap Man Puts UP $1o,2so ION Fake
Horse Raee-Plot Revealed by State
Agents Working on Saloon Cases At
Davenport.
Davenport, July 31.-Thru the efforts
of three special agents working under
Attorney General George Cosson, three
confidence men were arrested Satur-
day in a Davenport resort on charges
Of swindling w. H. Kearnes, OF Dun
lap, of $10,2s0 on fake horse race.
Part Of the money has been recov-
cred. The three men under arrest are
reported to have confessed. They gave
their names as F. II. Ward, w. H.
Reeves and John Brown.
According to the reports of the state
agents. the three men induced Kearnes
to bet on fake horse race. The plan
was exactly like that used by the Ma
bray gang. The jockey of the horse
the Dunlap farmer was betting on, fell
from his horse short distance from
the wire. thus allowing the horse in
the rear to take the lead and win the
race. The jockey smeared blood over
his face and claimed to have been in
jured.
The scheme was planned and car
ried out in one of Davenport's new
temperance bars.
Attorney General George Cosson, up
on receiving reports that Davenport
saloon men had opened what are
known as temperance bars, and were
selling real beer on the quiet, detailed
three Of the state agents to work on
the case. He detailed James Risden
O.. o. Rock and Henry Terrill to secure
evidence against the establishments.
While engaged lin getting the evil
dence against the temperance bars, the
special agents learned Of the fake horse
race and the swindle which had been
pulled of. They. worked on both as
signments and were successful in both.
The temperance cleanup at, Dayen-
port resulted in securing injunctions
against twenty -four establishments for
the illegal sale Of booze. The court
did not grant an injunction in one ad-
ditional case for lack of sufficienttevi-
dence. This case may be appealed to
the supreme court by the state.

VILLA AGAIN DISPLAYS
MILITARY GENIUS
(By United Press)

Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, Nov. 90
Another instance of the uncanny mil
tary genius and trickery of Villa that
has gained for him the name Of "the
fox of the Sierras," is being told here
To-Day by refugees from the south.
On the night of his attack upon Chi
huahua he utilized bold trick to en-
able his men to enter the city unde-
tected. Learning through spies that
thousands of reirforcements had ar
rived from Monterey and, had been
Put upon guard duty, he evolved this
strategem: When he arrived in the
outskirts he sent forward small de-
tails of his own men with instruction
t. relieve the Carranzistas on outpost
duty. They marched up, gave the pass
word and an officer informed the
guard he had been detailed to relieve
them. Deluded into the belief that
the newcomers were members Of the
garrison, the outposts marched away,
leaving Villas own men to guard
the town.
1t was Villa who first put into
practice the idea Of driving herds of
cattle over ground believed to be plant
ed with mines. Since it has been
picked up by commanders in the Eu-
ropean war. He also used herds of
cattle as living barricades when at
t&cking entrenched positions. His men
would drive hundreds of cattle up be-
fore the trenches, using them as cover.

WILL EXPERIMENT IN
REVIVAL OF OLD PLAYS
(By United Press.)

New York, Nov. 29.-To find out
whether there is native American
tradition in drama from which plays
Ct genuine American fiber may be
written, the Drama League of Amer
lea in December is to give revival
of some of the old time thrillers. The
program includes parts from "Uncle
Toms Cabin" "Davy Crockett" "
"Shore Acres" "The Contrast" "The
Girl With the Green Eyes" and can
Gre." When Edgar Allan Joe was dra-
matric critic of the Broadway Journal
he saw "Andre" forty times, and even
then had not entirely made up his
r,ind that it was a genuinely good
play.
Only portions of the plays will be
produced, the Lest from each, and in
such order that il an afternoons sit
ting a spectator will see the progress
OF American drama from it's pre-Civil
war stage of development to that
reached just before the present.

Prohibition and Suffrage.

Compa anting on the results OF the
recent electon, the editor Of the Wom-
ans Journal and Suffrage News (Bos-
tom says:
In the main, suffrage and prohl-
bition haye the same friends and the
same enemies"
The we'll known woman suffrage
publication adds, however, that prohl-
bton has grown from a matter OF
morals to paramount economic prop
lem which is receiving the support OF
business interests because it makes for
greater efficiency. The Journal says:
"Of late years the prohibition move
mcnt has been spreading, not merely
on ethical grounds, but also very
l~.~go'y on economic grounds. Big Bus
mess favors prohibition because 1t
wants sober workmen."
Regardless of the tendency Of GER
tain political elements to encourage
prohibition while frowning on suffrage
for women, i is very unlikely that the
two movements will be divorced at this
late date. Hand in hand, they have
come down through the last half cen
turv together. The Prohibition party
has been unwavering in its loyalty to
the suffrage cause. The suffrage ad-
vocates have not always been as ar
.dOntly favorable to prohibition as they
might have been, but prohibition SEN
timent has always predomlnated IN
suffrage circles.
Prohibition has gained steadily and
consistently through all the years. Sui
flage victories have perhaps been more
Spectacular, and during the past year
or more it has seemed that suffrage
victory would come first, after which
pI Iohibiton would speedily follow.
But the recent presidential cam
paign, with its results, has apparent
" changed the outlook, and prohibi-
ton seems destined to early success
in the nation, with suffrage to fol-
low.
The Journal offers perhaps the most
logical explanation of this sweeping
tide of sentiment favorable to prohi-
bition. The business interests have
learned that intoxicating liquors have
no place in sound commercial and in
dustrial life. 1t has become recog-
nized as an economical as we'll rs NOR
al problem which can only be solved
~ the complete banishment of the
evil Ira Landrith, vice presidential
candidate, who, with J. Frank Hanly
of Indiana, made an effective cam
paign on the prohibition ticket, said
in his campaign speeches that the
liquor interests have no friends in the
United States today. 1t begins to
lock as if DR.. Landrith was right
about it. The November 7 results in
dicated that very few friends Of the
evil are to be found i'll the suffrage
ranke.

WRAPPING TWINE
MADE FROM PAPER

Washington, Nov. 29.-That wrap
Ping twines which give thorough sat
isfaction can be made from paper has
been demonstrated by experiments
made by the Forest Products Labora-
tory at Madison, Dis. Several hun
Gred packages, each containing a me-
d;lm-sized book, were wrapped and
fostened with the lightset-weight pa
pei twine and were mailed to vari-
Gus points throughout the United
States. Reports show that practical
ly every package was received IN good
order and that in TO case was there
any damage which could be charged
as a fault of the twine.
In making twinc the paper is Gu,
il to narrow strips which are then
twisted tightly to form a cord. The
strength OF the twine depends upon
the character Of the paper used and
the process of treatment. 1t is well
adapted TO a number Of purposes, but
tie foresters say that as yet no sat
isfactory means has been found for
protecting paper twine from the action
Of water and it should not be used
