'SPANKSPOT' GIVEN
ADOUBLE WARNING
Boy in Basket Bumped First
by Auto, Then on
Dads Knee.

ATLANTIC CITY. Sept. 5.-A New
York motorist, bound toward the
shore, had a bad scare yesterday,
while passing through Newtonville.
thirty miles from this resort.
While speeding along the outskirts
Of the village, he spied large basket
just OF the center Of the road. Unable
TO resist the temptation to see how
close he could come to the object
without crushing it, the autoist gave
his wheel a flip and sent the machine
close enough to Craze the basket.
The basket was sent careening to
the side OF the road. At every roll n
yelp came from inside, and the aston
ished driver almost collapsed when a
three-year-old boy was spilled out.
Seeing that the child was unhurt, the
mOtoFist put on speed and got away
before the town police force could get
his number.
The "force" lifted up the frightened
youngster and summoned DR.. Charles
Cunningham, of Hammonton, who
found that minor bruises on that part
OF the youngsters anatomy commonly
employed for spanking purposes were
the extent OF the injuries.
Later, there were other marks on
the same spot, following the boys
arrival home.

SPANISH CRIMINALS
POuCEBARCELONA
Band Of Jail Birds, Headed
by POrtillO, Former
German Spy.

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 6-The gen
eral labor troubles and steady I'M
crease OF terrorism in Barcelona and
Valencia are q source Of great pre-
occupation TO the government, ac-
eording to a copyrighted dispatch
from Madrid to the Philadelphla Pub
lie Ledger.
During the war the necessity OF
increasing the national output OF coal
resulted in development OF the coal
mining industry to an unprecedented
degree. Prom 4,424,439 tons in 1914,
the production was increased to T.
664,463 tons in 1918. Now the reap
pearance of British coal on the mar
ket is diminishing the demand for
Spanish coal. The smaller mines
have closed down, and out OF some
10000 miners employed some loo are
out OF work, and this number 8 Ike
" to increase.
The latest deVelopment in BARGE
Iona has been the reappearance Of
bombs upon the scene, two Of which
exploded recently, happily without
doing much damage, but perhaps the
most disgraceful feature OF the po-
lice arrangements OF Barcelona Is the
Unemployment OF a band Of confi-
dants Of the type OF the famous ter
rorist, Rulo, who was condemned in
1908 and executed In the yard Of the
model prison.
The bravo, Portillo, who reappears
70 the public gaze as chief Of band
Of ex-Jail birds. intrusted With fire
arms by the military authorities Of
Barcelona, is the same ex-cOmmissary
Of police Of Barcelona and ex-spy IN
the employment OF the German en-
bassy Who q year ago was charged
with treason for having given in-
formation leading TO the torpedoing
OF the Spanish ship, Membru.
Bravo Portillo has never been
cleared OF the accusation made
against him at that time, and his
case Is one Of those which cast q
stain on Spanish justice.

1000 Years Of Bad Luck
Cause Low to Have Police
Remove Dead Dog Quick

CHICAGO, Sept 5.-A tremen-
dously excited Chinaman turned
in an s. o. S. call at the police
station recently and the call win
90 down in the annals Of the
south Clark street police station
IS the last word in police Gala
The police. assuming that race
rioting had broken out in Chi
cseo's Chinatown, Jumped in q
patrol wagon which went elang-
ing to the point designated as
the scene OF the disturbance. A
block away the. policsmen could
see q crowd OF excited orientals
and there was the patter OF count
less sandals over the streets to
the scene.
A passing automobile had run
down q dog which had been killed
in the street ana some one had
dragged the body OF the animal
IN front Of the ,store Of Yet Yan
Low. Yet looked at the dog
then swooned. Yet Yam Low did
not fear the dos, but he knew
that dragging the body Of the
dog to his front GOor meant that
1000 years Of hard luck by Chin
ese computation had fallen to his
lot.
