It's alright 10 run on u COO breezy

But It's not alright when It's hot,

So lets pity outfielders that's gotta
Achasin balls meath hot summer

We might try plan to save them
from this,
So as they won't hafta run when
ball they miss
Might plant nails in the ground with
points skyward turned
And the balls II stick without rollin'
or I'll be burned
OF course when its cold in justice to
the batter,
1t wouldn't be fair not to let his
average get fatter--
So the nails could be covered with big
rubber plates
And when the ball strikes one--leave
it to the Fates.
Once there was fielder who had nails
in his mitt,
And the stheres would stick the min.

He burned up the league with spec
tacular play
And everytime he stepped. the fansd
yell "Hurray "
But one day a comet fell down from
the skies
Filled with magnetism as ono
could surmise--
And the magnetism drew il TO the
fieders nailed mitt--
And now the fielder lies meath a
beautifully covered grass clad coating
Of green that every once in a while
has its excess growth trimmed with a
sparkling lawn mower that wrinkles in
the brilliant rays of an Oklahoma

TO HELP THE SOLDIERS.

Senator Simmons has hit upon a
plan to raise the soldier bonus with
out taking the money from the treas
ury. He wants to raise it from the
interest on the moneys due US by
foreign countries. This he claims Will
never be missed. Senator Reed charg-
ed that thousands of soldier boys are
penniless and helpless and are found
in the growing ranks of the unem-
ployed.
The Senator has the Republicans in
a quandary, they realizing that
they cannot longer stave off this
piece Of legislation without incurring
the dispieasure of the soldier vote
and especially when a soldier who is
out of work is SO badly in need of
his money.

SOMETHING OF A PROPHET

The accuracy with which Mr.. Dav-
id Lawrence forecasts events trans
piring at the National Capitol is
noted frequently by the editor OF
the Times. That he was pretty well
il. formed, and has a knack of get
ting on the inside of first hand in
formation is illustrated by his ad-
vance utterances on the recent
threat to strike.
In the David Lawrence dispatch
of Octboer 21st he said:
THE program of the government
appears to be this:
First, reduction Of freight
,ates, more drastic than any made
thus far.
Second, further conferences i'm
mediately afterward with the union
CHIEFS with the request that they
withdraw their strike order.
Third. a request that the raif-
way executives simultaneously with
draw their petition for a second wage
cut.
Then, the United States Rail-
,oad Board, which is by no means
a rapid moving body would take it's
time in Investigating the effects of
the lowered freight rates on railway
Income, and would ultimately pre-
rare to say whether a second wage
cut would be desirable. One thing
seems assIred-there will be no
granting of a second wage cut by the
United States Railroad Board at this
time AS soon as leaders of the rail
way employees become convinced of
this, they probably will rescind their
strike order"
The foregoing was confirmed in
developments on successive days,
and finally with the withdrawal of
the strike order on October 2Sth.

ENGLISH COLONIES FORCED THE
CONFERENCE

An Interesting story is coming out
of Washington to the effect that
President Harding did not want to
call the disarmament conference un-
til the present administration had
gotten out of the way the taxation
matter was forced by the premiers of
the English Colonies
Heretofore the English colonies
have allowed England to shape the
foreign policy of the empire without
question and little comment. How
eyer since the war during which the
colonies lost heavily in men and
money, these countries have de-
manded some say in the settlement
of foreign diplomatic relations
The treaty between England and
Japan is the real bone Of contention
and has Ioomed larger in the way
OF dtsai Hament than any other fac
tor
Every one realizes Japan's ambi-
tions in the far east would be great
ly interfered with as the result of
crippled ornaments. But Japan's
policy both in business and politics
is Objectionable to even the English,
and recestly English traders in China
reser, e.: some OF the methods OF the
Japane;e governnlc-. The colonies
feei that the treaty stands in the
way Of disarmament, and is only a
bolster for Japan, in her efforts to
advance her interests in the east.
They do not want it to stand in the
way of close tie Of friendship be-
tween England and America, two
great nations combined who must
guarantee the peace of the world.
They do not want to see the hands
of their country either tied or neu-
tralized. Hence their opposition to
rne. E..giish-Japanese treaty.

FELON CONF ESSES
KILLING GUARD At
PRISON; GETS LIFE
EDWARD KING, KNOWN AS JOLl.
EFT PENiTENTlARY'S Dad
MAN" PLEADS GUILTY WHEN
ARRAlGNGD IN COURT FOR
MURDER.

Joliet, Jan 2O-ISpecial. Edward
King. a convict, was sentenced to life
in prison for the murder of James
McMurray, penitentiary guard, in
circuit court this afternoon by Judge
Hooper
King was sentenced after he had
changed his plea from not guilty to
guilty
This morning, following a confer
ence of States Attorney Martin and
Leslie n Junkerman, Chicago, attor-
ney for the defendant King withdrew
his plea Of not guilty and changed it
to guilty.
There was little evidence intro
duced after King changed his plea. f.
l.. KneSs, guard at the penitentiary,
was called to the witness stand and
testified that he did not hear any
noise at the time the murder was
committed. He was only short dis
lance from the scene.
King was not placed on the stand.
He was sentenced on his admission of
guilt At present he is serving a
term for burglary which does not eX-
pire for eight years
King is SO years old and has served
three terms in the pententiary. He
Is known as bad man" among his
fellow convicts.
He has been implicated in several
outbreaks against prison authorities
and assaults on keepers and was the
alleged leader of the thirteen men
who escaped from the penitentiary
three years ago.
AT that time, it was said, King was
the convict who brutally assaulted
two guards who blocked the way
December 9 King was attached to
a detail which was unloading coal
in the prison yard. McMurray was in
charge Of the convicts He gave an
order to King and the convict resent
ed it,
King walked to the yard shack,
after declaring he wasn't working
for two bosses McMurray followed
King, it was shown in the testimony,
and reprimanded him.
The Convicts who testified at the
inquest said they were too distant
to hear the words which followed
According to the testimony, King
seized the guards cane and succeed
ed in wrestling 1t from his grasp. With
the cane he attacked McMurray,
knocking him to the ground At this
point the testimony differed
McMurray was rescued by guards,
who were attracted to the scene by
the noise. He was lying unconscious
on the ground. King gave himself up
and admitted striking the guard, but
held that it was in self-defense.
In pronouncing the sentence Judge
Hooper included in the provision that
King was TO be placed at hard labor
and that one day in every year he
was to be put in solitary confine-
ment
At the conclusion Judge Hooper
advised the convict: You are yet a
young man, only 80 years old. with
half of your life still before you. Ny
advice to you is that you return to
the penitentiary settle down and go
straight. Make yourself a model
prisoner and perhaps you will be pa
rolled"
Michael Lawor also a convict, in,
dcted for arson and larceny. was
scheduled to be placed on trial this
afternoon. He was indicted by thc
January grand jury and was ar
raigned before Judge Hooper Jan.
and pleaded not guilty.
