HARRIS SENTENCED
10 MOS.|NSTATEPEN

w. A. Harris, the white man who
was returned from Mobile several
days since to face charges of break
ing and entering, entered plea of
guilty to that charge yesterday in
the court of record and was sem
fenced to eighteen months in the
state penitentiary by Judge c. NJ.
Jones' He had very little to say in
making his statement to the court
after so pleading.
The arrest and return of Harris
was regarded as a nice bit of work
on the part of the police department
for it was mainly through the activ-
ity of that department that the sus-
pect was located in Mobile. and
where he was arrested upon the I'M
formation from the Pensacola de-
partment. He returned without
requisition papers.

Ash Wednesday
Opens up Today


New York, Feb. 13-Todav is
Ash Wednesday, marking the begin
ming of Lent, the penitential season
of the ritualistic branches of the
Christian church. In this city the sea-
son of 40 days of penance will be
ushered in with special services in
Catholic, Episcopal, and some of the
Lutheran churches.
Lent this year promises to be a
gloomy season for society in town,
with the combined economical and
wartime restrictions. The bookings
at the Florida and all southern re-
sorts show that a large majority of
society plans to take this cpportu-
nifty to bask and relax from var re-
lief work in summer chimes, return
ing for the early Easter season.

SO forth. Occasionally we read OF
a hanging by parties OF enra0ed

Only recently a railroad shop in
Lima, Ohio, was burned-fired in
three places, the water turned Off
and the fire hose cut in two places.
Locomotives and freight cars and
coaches, ready for shipment to
France, besides other needed sup.
plies, were destroyed. In Kentucky
recently $50 artillery horses were
poisoned. In Kansas City the nurses
in a hospital were poisoned through
German access to the k~itchsn-and
