Sure Test Of Diamond.

The fact that real diamonds are
phosphorescent after being treated in
the following manner is said to make
the following test a sure one: First
of all, expose the stone for a few min
utes to the light of an electric lamp.
Then rub briskly on wood or metal.
Now take 1t into a dark place, when
the diamond will glow brightly. This
does not occur in the case Of false
gem.

Amen is a Hebrew word signifying

How Many Women Expect to Vote;
Part in Coming Election Worries Cit,

The vote of the women at the city

perplexing problem for the city offic-
ials to solve They have no guide on
which they can depend in obtaining
election supplies, nor can they def
nitely determine the number Of ad-
ditional voting precincts the increased
vote will require.
There are now thirty-one precincts
in the city. This number has been pro-
vided for approximately 1850 voters.
an average of $50 voters to precinct.
There are many women Of voting
age in the city as there are men.
How many women will vote?
How Many Will Use Right.
That is the question the city officials
are confronted with. Incidentally the
county auditor has the same question
to contend with because there will be
a county election next September to
select two delegates from Wayne
county to the state constitutional con-
vention
1t is very probable that the city and
county officials will not be able to ar.
range for election supplies and to re-
district voting precincts until after
the registration period has expired.

Lazy Husband
DrQws Heaviest
Fine Euer Giuen

Now that his campaign against vice
conditions in Wayne county has been
completed, Prosecutor Strayer has
turned his undivided attention to lazy
husbands"
Since Strayer took office, January I.
he has convicted fourteen men on non.
support charges.
Work is plentiful and mean to
compel every man in the county to
support his family II he Is physically
able to do so," said the prosecutor.
Support Wife While In Jail.
III a man will support his family no
other way, we will put him in Jail and
work him on the roads so that his fam
lily will receive 81 a day from the coun.
ty for his work.
Judge Fox is backing up the prose-
cutor in the crusade.
This morning. the experienced judge
sentenced Edgar Hiatt, plasterer, 1104
North H street, to serve six months at
hard labor and fined him $3.50. Hiatt
entered plea of guilty to charge Of
non-support of wife and six children.
Heaviest Fine Ever Imposed.
Prosecutor Strayer said that the
man had been up on similar charges
before. This is the heaviest fine ever
imposed in the local court under the
lazy husbands act. Several men have
received as heavy Jail sentences, how
ever.
William j. Newman, Gil North Thir-
teenth street, entered a plea of guilty
to a charge Of non-support of wife and
child. He was sentenced by Judge Fox
to serve three months in Jail and was
fined $50 and costs. This sentence
was also imposed under the lazy hus-
bands act.
Probation Officer Elizabeth Gambler
was appointed trustee in both in.
stances.
