 SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 4.-Attor ney General U. $. Webb, joined today with counsel for the defense in the state supreme court in urging reversal of judgment for Thomas J. Mooney, under sentence of death in connection with tha preparedness day bomb ex- plosion murders last year. After hearing arguments the court an- nounced that the matter would be taken under consideration with the promise of a decision within a few days.
 Webb emphasized his contention that in the Mooney case "a miscar- riage of justice had occurred" He ex- plained that letters had been discov- cred rflcting on the character Of testimony given in the trial by Frank c. Oxman of Oregon, the principal state witness against Mooney. OK man has since been charged with subornation of perjury. It is alleged that he sought to induce F. E. Rigall of Grayville, H., to give false testi- mony against Mooney.
 The attorney general previously had filed in the supreme court his con- sent to a new trial, but this the court disposed of today with the assertion that ''unassailable authorities pre- vented it from taking action on such a consent" Webb said the actual rec ords in the case showed no reversible error, but that his action was predicted on the letters which he alleged clouded Oxman's testimony.
 The filing of notice of consent for a new trial, the court held, was a mat ter that properly should have been taken up with the executive, rather than the judicial branch of the state government.

assailed the attorney generals consent by filing memorandum of opposition in which he declared that Webb's ac- tion was irregular and vicious" In addition to the motion for reversal of judgment the supreme court now has before it a formal appeal from conviction in the Mooney case.
 While the higher court was hearing arguments, Judge Frank H. Dunne in the superior court fixed September IT for the next trial in the bomb mur- der cases and the court was notified that either Israel Weinberg, Edward D. Nolan or Mrs. Rena Mooney, wife of Thomas Mooney, would be the de- fendant. Mrs Mooney recently was acquitted on one of the nine indict- ments charging murder in connection with the explosion. The trial of Frank C. Oxman, for subornation of perjury was continued today for one week

Boqas and Stewart Paid.

Harry Boggs, an accountant Tor the public service commission, recently was checking up the records of the Ander- son municipal electric plant, at Ander- son. A campaign was on in Anderson to raise money for Y. M. c. A. build ing.
 Boggs was approached by commit tees and asked to contribute. Finally he signed paper promising to pay $1, and opposite he placed the name of Charley Stewart, chief clerk of the commission, in whose office at the statehouse Boggs has a desk. Boggs came home and waited developments. Soon Stewart was notified that his contribution to the Anderson Y. NJ. c. A. was due. He didn't say much, but apparently did lot of thinking.
 The other day he caught Boggs in the offices as another dun" came in. Stewart opened and read the "dun," which was more or less insistent in it's tone.
 Then he walked over to Boggs. Lend me a dollar. will you, Harry?", he asked.
 And Boggs dived into his pocket and produced the dollar
 "Now I'll just pay this bill for you," said Stewart.-Indianapo News.

ROMANCE OF ROSES
PRETTY LOVE STORY THAT BE.
 GAN WITH THE FLOWERS.
1t Was SaIIie That Gave the Young Couple an Excuse for Calling, But in Short Time They
 Needed No Excuse.

Betty, the secretary of our club, has had pretty love story, relates the Chicago Tribune. It began in rain- storm. When the rain was pelting down its liveliest Betty came into the street from an elevated road station. At the bottom of the steps stood boy selling flowers. He had only two roses left, glorious, half-blown pink ones.
 'T'll have those roses, if you please" said Betty. And, '.I'll have those roses, if you please" said another voice at the same time. The other voice be- 1onged to q man. He was young man, and when Betty looked up and he looked down, both smiled. Despite the dampness of his clothes the boy smiled too.
 Well" he said, which of you is goin' to have 'em?"
 'You," said Betty. You spoke first"
 No, you. think you did," said the young man.
 The boy being diplomat as we'll as q flower seller, suggested that they "divvy up."
 "Why not?" said the man. "I want my roses for a friend who is ilL and she can't smell but one rose at a time, now, can she?"
 "I suppose not" said Betty. T also want my roses for a friend who is ill, and she can't smell but one rose at time."
 So they "divvied up." They left the station together, and since their ways lay in the same direction, they walked together for three blocks. Presently both turned into the same side street and both stopped at the same house in the middle of the block and both rang the bell of the same fiat.
 Don't tell me it is Sallie Miller that you are bringing that rose to-" said Betty ineredulously.
 Sure it is," said Betty.
 So they climbed the stairs together.
 Wont Sallie be surprised to see us coming together?' said Betty. Sallie was surprised.
 q didn't know that you two knew each other," she said.
 We don't-we didn't" said Betty. Then they told the story of the roses.
 Sallie liked the roses, but, being sympathetic soul, she liked the story better. "I am so glad" she said. You must both come again on Wednesday at this same time."
 They went away tocether.

KEEP LAND BUSY; !. STATE NEEDS FOOD
l As Soon as One Crop Is Off the Land Plant Something Else-keep the
 Land, Men and Teams Busy.

By l.. W Osborn, College of Agricul-
 ture, University of Arkansas.
 Help feed the Arkansas troops and their horses. Put something on stub ble land as soon as possible, and do everything to help produce surplus. Make your land work as far as possi- ble all the time. AS soon as the oat and wheat crops are off the land, plant something and keep the teams and la. borers busy. Remember, you are working for Arkansas now.
 The crops which can still be plant ed at this season of the year are the old stand-bys-the cowpeas, peanuts, sorghum and sweet potatoes. Aside from these can be mentioned the soy bean and late corn. The velvet bean can still be planted for forage or soil improvement. The yields of forage from these late planted crops are good even though lighter than can usually be expected from the earlier plant ings A combination of sorghum and COW peas, seeded with a grain drill, will probably produce as large yield of forage as anything. Corn planted in rows five or six feet apart with cowpeas, soy beans. or peanuts, drill ed through the middleI is a good prac- tice where grain is desired and the forage can be pastured. Planting cowpeas or soy beans in the row with corn makes an excellent combination for the silo. especially on good soils.

KEEP EARLY ARKANSAS IRISH
 POTATO CROP AT HOME.
How To Save Spring Crop and Pro-
 duce Fall Crop.

By H. F. Kapp, District Agent, Exten-
 sion Division, U of A.
 Some means should be taken to keep the early Irish potato crop in Arkansas this year. Our farmers are making great mistake in permitting them to leave the state. There is serious shortage in the worlds supply and the practice we have of shipping out the early crop in June and by the middle of July or August 1 receiving return shipments to supply our needs may prove disastrous this year be- cause it will not only be practically impossible to get Irish potatoes back into the state, but the price will be prohibitive.
 How To Save Them.
 ''The spring crop of Irish potatoes can be saved for home use by spread
The Huttig news., 1917-06-02

ing them out on a floor in a well yen- tilated building, or on the ground un- der building. The latter plan is pre- ferable if suitable place is at hand. The potatoes should be spread out very thin. It is best if they do not touch each other. After few days they should be gone over carefully and any that have begun to decay should be picked out. If the potatoes are very wet at digging time, scatter air slaked lime over them to absorb the moisture. In this way home supply can be kept until December or Jan uary, after which they will become So shriveled and watery that they are not fit for food, and are not good for seed.
 PIaE a Fall Crop.
 Most farmers do not attempt to. grow a fall crop of Irish potatoes for the reason that it is so difficult to get stand that is worth while Some Arkansas farmers, again, have prov en that it is possible to get a very good stand for a fall crop. Their meth cd is as follows:
 Select plat of good ground for the fall crop and blow it immediately. Then blow and replow it as the sea- son advances. Get deep, thoroughly pulverized seed bed. Do not let any weeds grow on the plat Only mature potatoes should be used for seed. Gull out the smaller potatoes from the spring crop and care for them as indi- cated. About the middle of July plant them in the seed bed prepared accord ing to the directions just mentioned. It will be found that enough moisture has been conserved by thorough pre- paration, blowing and narrowing, to sprout the potatoes and get fair stand. It cannot be expected that as good yield will be obtained in the fall as with spring crop, but plenty can be produced to supply the needs of family and provide seed for plant ing next spring.
 Green Seed Potatoes.
 Take the seed potatoes culled from the spring crop as soon as dug and bed them out in a dense shade; under a tree where sunlight triekles through is good place. Scatter enough dirt over them so that about one-half of the potato is left exposed. Keep them damp In two or three weeks the exposed part of the potato will turn green. la this condition it will not rot and is sure to sprout IT both the land preparation and green ing methods are carried out good crop of fall potatoes may be expect ed unless the fall is extremely dry. Of course. it is to be presumed that and good cultivation will be given the crop"
 With the present high price of po- tatoes, the shortage of acreage on ac- count of the cost of seed and the great demand that will probably increase rather than diminish, every farmer should provide for his own use and be certain to have his own seed next spring. A fall crop will solve the whole problem. Grow for yourself"

SUCCESSES GAINED
 AT HEAVY COSTS

London, May 17.-An official state ment issued by the Austrian war of flee on Wedne esday admits gains for the Italians in the fighting on the Isonzo, but claims the repulse of the majority of the attacks and a total capture of 2,O00 soldiers. The state ment says:
 5'@The fifth day of the Isonzo battle was no less violent than on previous days. The enemy repeatedly and with great tenacity sent his masses to the attack. Thousands of Italians were sacrificed and our arms again came out of the struggle with complete suc- cess.
 Between Auzza and the Isonzo canal the Italians gained ground on 8 small sector of the Isonzo but were unable to extend their gains They also gained a temporary footing on Mount Guk, but were dislodged after fierce fighting. Earlier Italian efforts to conquer Monte Stanto and Monte Gabrielle and capture Austrian lines east and southeast of Gorizia failed. The number of prisoners brought in by our troops was increased to 1000, including about 50 officers. Increased artillery activity is reported in the Tyrol"

BANDIT WEIGH SENTENCED TO
 STATE PRISON
Judge Greene Sentences One of Murderous Band to
 From 2 to 5 Years.

Henry Welch, the youthful member of the band of robbers who terrorized this city a few months ago, was sen- fenced to states prison for not more than five and not less than two years by Judge Gardiner Greene in the criminal superior court this afternoon. He pleaded guilty to the charge of robbing the store of Thomas Lalloes, All Main street, last November. Welch was tried with Edward Slat- tery for the murder Of Nathan Garon but was acquitted by a jury. He was then arrested on the robbery charge. Slattery was sentenced to prison for life, for second degree murder.
 John McMillan, another member of the gang, pleaded guilty to the charge of robbery and States Attorney Cum mings expected to have him sentenced this morning. The prisoner had not been brought down from the county Jail, however, so the passing of sen- tence was postponed until late this afternoon.
 Welch did not appear downcast at his sentence and his mother who was in the court room. also received the news quite calmly. John Cavanaugh, arrested at the time the others were taken into custody, is charged with murder but his case has not yet been taken up by the court.

HALLIDAY PLEADS GUILTY; SENT TO JAIL SIX MONTHS
Real Estate Manipulator Admits Complicity in Plot
 to Burn Dwelling.

William A Halliday, whose real estate activities brought him into the clutches of the law last year was sem fenced to jail for six months by Judge Gardiner Greene in the criminal su- perior court this afternoon. He pleaded guilty to the charge of con- spiracy to commit arson with intent to defraud the Phoenix Insurance Go. of Hartford. Francis Romero, who was arrested with Halliday and was said to be Halliday's accomplfce, pleaded not guilty. His case will be disposed of later.
 States Attorney Cummings explain ed the transaction upon which the present complaint was. based. Hal liday had owned a piece of property fin the North End which he transfer red to Romero, but the deed was made out to John J. Martinez, a fic- titious person Later the property was sold to a bona fide purchaser but the deed was not recorded.
 Insurance of $4,000 was taken out with the Phoenix Co, represented in this city by the Bridgeport, Land & Title Co. It was alleged the property was damaged by fire and claim was made to the insurance agents. AS the deeds of sale had not been record ed the company thought the property still belonged to the fictitious Mar timex, for whom Halliday claimed to be an agent. It was agreed that damages of $650 should be awarded but the check was held up and Hal 1iday was arrested before he secured the money. He has already served five months in the county jail.
