The gas officials state they fear
they cannot raise this amount and
make the improvements, which would
include another 100000 cubic feet
capacity, unless they receive the rate
increase. because financial interests
will refuse to buy securities.
In spite of the fact that the COM
pany has added to its equipment ap-
proximately Ss.OOO,O 900 worth of inn

JOY RIDER TRIO
SENTENCED FOR
8 AUTO THEFTS
Two 16-Year-Old Boys Admit
Stealing Cars Just for
a Good Time
SAFE ROBBERY STAGED

Details Of the experiences Of three
young men, two still in their teens, who
broke into garages for the purpose Of
stealing automobiles in which to satisfy
their desire for speed and a good time,
were disclosed today by John Palmer, IS;
Milton kimberley, TO, and Waiso Adams,
81, in the Marion County Criminal Court.
Apparently not realizing that reforma-
tory doors were swinging wide open for
them, the three young men appeared
wholly unconcerned when pleading guilty
to charges growing out Of the theft Of
eight automobiles.
The confessions Of Palmer and Wimber-
icy illustrate the extremes to which mis-
guided boys resort for a few hours Of
excitement.
NOT THIEVES, JUST
JOY RIDING" YOUTHS.
The three defendants apparently
thought 1t was TO their credit that they
did not steal the machines to sell, but
merely for the purpose OF JOY ride.
Generally they wrecked the cars or
left them on q country road.
City Detective William Rugenstein in
formed the court that only four Of the
eight machines stolen had been recovered.
Counsel for the defendants attempted
TO lay emphasis on the statement Of
Palmer and Wimberley that they did not
steal the cars for the purpose Of selling
them.
The confession o. John Palmer, IT,
shows the methods used by Palmer,
Adams and Kimberley II their career of
auto stealing and wrecking the cars.
According to Palmer's signed confess
sion, which was introduced as evidence
and read by Judge James 4. Collins,
Palmer, Adams and kimberley on the
night Of June IS last broke q lock Cd Il
garage at COG North Holmes avenue and
then pushed Ford out into the alley.
Following a joy ride the car was aban-
doned.
On June 20. Adams and Palmer stole
REQ roadster from a garage in the
rear Of 266S Parkway boulevard, and
after taking a Joy ride left it standing
in a road, according to Palmer's con-
fessiOn.
BREAK INTO SAFE
AND STEAL SIT.
Just six days later, Adams and Pal
mer stole n Paige sedan in the 1900 block
on North Capitol avenue, and, according
10 Palmer's confession, they invited e.
mer Eddy, a mere boy, to ride with them.

and he, no doubt, would think it most natural thing for Dicky to can eel my reservation with him. But if I should go down and demand it again I would be lowering my dignity and Dicky's and give an opportunity for unkind comment upon the part of the village gossips, of whom l guessed there were many.
 Not that I cared a whit for Dicky's dignity in those first minutes of white hot anger against him. But I have al- ways dreaded anything which would be apt to attract comment to my af- fairs, and I realized only too well how effectively Dicky, whether premedi- tately or not had tied my hands.
 What She Feared.
 I sprang to my feet, threw wide open the window, then began to pace up and down, my infallible remedy for clearing my brain when I want to think out a situation. In a flash it came to me!
 There were half a dozen other sta- tions within easy motor access of Cedar Crest. I would summon a taxi, go to any one of them, and get a ticket as far as Richmond. From there on I would trust to luck and my own wits. Thanks to Dicky's liberal allow ance, my own prudence, and my fath- CTS generosity, I was provided with plenty of money for almost any emerg- ency, including the possibility of hav- ing to hire motor cars from one town to another through Virginia and the states North.
 My spirits, almost my good humor, 1 came rushing back to me at this plan. There has always been something in ! me which longed for adventure, some | thing to happen outside the beaten | track of things And since Dicky's re- | turn from the war and the close of the l episode of Milly Stockbridge's death, i life had flown in fairly even channels 1 for me.
 | This trip promised all sorts of ex- citing possibilities if the tales of the l railroad strike were not exaggerated. l also, and was not tainted by any | qualms of conscience on my part. I l was a woman, experienced in travel | ing. would be in no danger, was leav- l ing no responsibility behind, and was , sorely needed at my destination. There was only Dicky's very certain displeas- 1 ure in the way, and I am afraid that i in my wrath against him didn't spend ! much time over that objection. IsS. rha soundaz0f Dicky's rushing feet

GOOD EVIDENCE.

Sing Sing. New York States prison. has broken it's record. Last week ninety-two prisoners were received to serve sentences from one to sixty years each. This comes from the cleanup of criminals and the quick conviction and sentence by the courts.
 Here we have good evidence of something doing" We have heard a great deal of the precautions be- ing taken in New York and other states against an increase or a con- tinuance of crime. but the fact that SO many criminals were not only ap- prehended but were sent to prison shows that something has been done and gives the hope that crime in the country will decrease. temporarily at least, as 1t has in Chicago where everything has been pretty quiet for forty-eight hours.
 More and more people in the coun- try are, claiming Missouri as their homes. They were never satisfied and never will be with the number of suc- cessful prosecutions of profiteers and draft dodgers. They. the people of his country. now have to be shown" The Sing Sing record helps.
 And in matters political this tendency of the people to demand re- suits will become more and more evident. The coming administration, with the great promises made. will find this out when the men in office during the next few years. will seek indorsement. Statesmen and other of-
 flee holders had better recognize this fact now.

DIVORCED SALESMEN.

All people knew what good fel- lows" travelling saIesmen are Every one does not know that they hold the record in the matter of divorce. One out of every nine is divorced according to the reported statistics of q University professor.
 This fact would seem to destroy the theory that the more a man sees of women the hore wisely he picks out the one to be his partner for life. But possibly he has no thought of flor life" when he picks.
 The fact would seem to destroy the soundness of the statement: Absence makes the heart grow fonder."
 But it does tend to prove that home. in which a man and wife have their mutual interests, and in which they remain habitually, tends | to cement the marriage tie. For "traveling salesmen" cannot, from the I very nature of their work, be home | men"
 Of course the travelling salesman may not be to blame; nor the sales
 mans wife. It is best to refrain from a discussion of that aspect of the case. But when one learns that only one out of every ninety-odd farmers is | divorced. one becomes more strongly | convinced that the possessie of a
 home Is a thing to be desired for the benefit of the world if one believes that numerous divorces are not good and few there are who doubt this.
