ninety days in Jail for carrying con-
cealed weapons.
Oscar Perkins and Robert Pendle-
ton, deputy sheriffs, and Augustine

CITY SAVES MUCH ON COAL.
New Water Tube Boiler Installed al
Waterworks Plant

The installation of one OF the new
water tube boilers in the battery at
the new city waterworks plant is re-
sulting already in the saving of some
four tons of coal per day. Wilbur A.
Stanfield, city commissioner Of cleo
trio lights and water, declared today.
One of the new boilers, just being
installed, with an automatic stocking
attachment, is taking the place of two
of the old fire-tube boilers which
have been removed. with far less
manual labor incidental to its opera
ton.
More perfect combustion is secured
with the use of the atomatic stocking
attachment than was possible with the
old style of manual firing.

READY TO STOP COAL HOGS,
Profiteering by Either Owner or
Dealer UnweIcome, Says U. S.

Washington, April 6-The govern
ment is prepared to stop profiteering
in coal, should it be undertaken either
by operators or retail dealers, Attor-
ney General Daugherty declared to-
day.
The attorney general is said to have
taken notice of a movement by coal
dealers in some parts of the country
to promote buying of coal thru fear
OF shortage or future high prices.
Such dealers, he said, are playing a
losing game, pointing out that the
public should be well informed that
there is neith~r shortage of coal in
prospect OF justification for higher
prices.

WARNS AGAINST RED TALK.
Soviet Agitators Working I'm Ranks
of Army, Says Weeks.

Washington. April 6.-On top of the
warning issued to the American navy
against acceptance of red propa-

afternoon addressed to the army by
Secretary of War Weeks
Weeks said certain radical ele-
ments" have been at work in both
army and navy, attempting to inocu-
late soviet doctrines into service men. -
The twin warnings caused consider
able mystery here in view of the an
nouncement by Attorney General
Daugherty that the red scare was
greatly exaggerated.

REVENUE MEN

DODC|NC TAXES
Roundup of DeIinquents Be-
gun for Tardy Remittance
of Special Levies.

The District Of Columbia office OF
internal revenue is in a campaign to
round up delinquent druggists who
are daily found to be evading pay
ment of the tax on syrups used at
the fountains, 1t was learned today.
Special men have been detailed to
bring in these delinquent tax payers
and have been able to round up three
or four druggists daily.
The penalty, for non-payment Of
this tax Of cents on a gallon, If
found to be wilful, is fine Of $1,000.
II the negligence is found to be that
which arises from ignorance Of the
provision or operation of the law,
the Internal Revenue office is ac-
cepting compromise offers of $40 in
lieu Of the fine, 1t was said.
Investigators have found that
most of the failure to pay the tax
has arisen from ignorance Of the
law, and have found 1t feasible to
accept the compromise offer, which
is supposed to equal the tax which
would have been paid from the date
the new law went into operation last
January.

parents were very strict with her
and Dow threatened to tell them
unless she married him. Fright
ened that her parents would re-
prove her for letting herself be
kissed when she was not even en-
gagged, she married Dow, but
wouldn't live with him, and has
brought suit for divorce.

And then about II prattle,

As ten-cent store rattle.

He should to her have averred,
