3 BANDITS ROUTED
BY TRENCH FIGHTER
Druggists Son Uses Counter
as Shield When Store
Is Held Up
SISTER CALLS PATR0LMAN

Trench fighting methods lcarpcd in
France routed three bandits last night
from the drug store of William +. Ka-
Jesse, Clarence and Jasper streets.
William +. KalcssC. Jr.. son of the
druggist and an overseas veteran, was
alone in the store when the three BAN
dts entered and gruflly ordered him to
throw UP his hands. Automatic re-
vOlvers emphasized the demand.
kalcssc figured that the space be-
hind the counter was as good as any
trench he saw in France or Flanders
lie duckcd. then moved rapidly to
another room and obtained big army
automatic that could punch holes
through dozen bandits.
Meanwhile, the young mans sister,
Margaret. got a police whistle and blew
shrill alarms. The whistle and the
noise of the former soldier returning to
the shop were too much for the would
bc robbers. They fled without obtaining
anything.
Patrolman William Benckert, who
lives at 2O22 East Tioga street, near
the drug store. was off duty and sitting
in shOClcSS case when he heard the
blaSts of the police whistle. lie ran in
stocking feet to the drug store, but the
bandits wcrc gone.

CHANGE IN ELECTION
LAWS IS PLANNED
Conference Called to Map Out
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
System Under Fire
WOULD PREVENT WASTE

Revision of the election laws includ-
ing tho possible abandonment Of tn,
assessment system. will bc tho subject
Of n conference among the county com
missioncrs. tho registration commission
crS and the legislative committee Of
City Council
This was announced today by George
+. Holmes. n county commissioner, who
said the discussion would be held after
Council disposcs Of the 1921 budget.
Impetus to the desire for election law
changes was given by the failure of 13O
nsscssorS to obtain tho necessary books
for a canvass Of their divisions. Mr..
Holmes believes the small pay for
nssrssorS was responsible for this
tardincSs.
In giving his personal views Of the
assessment system. Mr.. Holmes said he
feels that the personal registration Of
voters covers the ground adequately.
1t is an open question. however. he
continued. because tho jury lists are
made up from the assessors books. OPP
ponrntS Of change. he said, could
argue that voters could dodge jury
service by refusing to register in cas-"
the jury lists were prepared from the
registration lists.
Another question to be discussed will
be a proposed change in the law govern
ing the printing of ballots. At present
ballots must he printed for every
voter on the assessors books. As only
those who register are entitled to vote
+hp excess ballots arc wasted.
Mr.. Holmes said the delinquent as.
SCISSORS will be given until Monday to
obtain their books. The board of judges
will then be asked TO name successors
The judges already have appointed 100
new assessors.

COMPANY NOT LIABlEN
Judge Dismisses Damage Suit Be-
cause U. S. Was in Control

Sam. Rixon's suit for damages
against the Western Union Telegraph
Co. was thrown out of court today by
Judge McCullcn because the company
was under government control when the
alleged injury occurred.
Rixcn claims that on October }. 1918.
he was knocked down and hurt by n
bicycle ridden by Western Union mes e
Scngcr boy. Judge McCullon ruled that
the company then was under government
control and that the government had
made no provisions for payment Of dam
ages to persons injured through the
negligence Of company employees.
