WAGNER GETS five
YEARS MORE; CREATES
Court SENSATION

Retaining his defiant attitude toward
the court in particular and the world
In general. Frank Wagner, now serving
40 years at the penitentiary, received
an additional sentence of five years
yesterday after consideration of his
case by Judge Percy r. Kelly.
Wagner's second sentence is the re-
suit of indictments returned agains,
MIN recently by the grand jury on
charges of burglarizing the Syrung-
Banks and Julius Aulm~ stores at Sill
verton last spring.
Wagner when brought before Judge
Kelly for arraignment, created a SEN
satlon in court when he seized the in
dictment transcript and hurled il to
the floor, declaring that he did not
care to plead, that he was too busy
serving his 4o-year sentence to be con-
cerned about anything else and that
ne did not want an attorney "butting
Into his business"
Wagner apparently changed ms
mind, however, and entered a plea
Tuesday of guilty.
The convict has a statewide repu-
tatlon OF being hard man to deal
with. He was committed TO the peni-
tentiary in September on a 4O-year flat
sentence for the looting of safety de-
$4,000 loou from both stores, and over
This jog is said to have netted Wag-
ner $4,000, most of which has not
been recovered, according to the au-
thorities. The Silverton escapade was

date, securing it is estimated about
$4,000 lott from both sores, and over
looking $4,000 worh of bonds, said to
have been in the Aulm safe at the time.
When asked by officials as to his
methods in opening the Silverton boxes
Wagner said MY professional secrets
are none of your business" During
Tuesdays hearing. Wagner is said to
have intimated that he would be able
to restore the Astoria bonds and other
DOT to its owners anytime that bunch

Fine Tune VIII Live.

Probably the majority of church
goers will agree with the vicar Of Well
ingborOugh in his refusal to allow the
church bells of his parish to ring out
"Tipperary" in honor of the great
peace, for in these matters one must
of course draw the line somewhere.
Yet, when the vicar asks: eff
'Tipperary,' why not Tommy, Make
Room for UncleY" the analogy Is not
very apt. Both songs, 1t Is true, are
nOt-well. classical music. But the
glorious associations Of "Tipperary"
have raised it far above such criticism {;
and though the famous tune may never
reach the height of church beifry,
1t is, nevertheless, likely to 90 down

seillaise" Of the Old Contemptibles.-

Over the top, commonly bare

laid huge stone slab, preferably of
marble, with immense brass or nickel
rings at each corner by which to lift
