RUSSIAN PRIESTS BOB THEIR
 LOCKS TO DISTRACT NOTICE

MOSCOW, Dec. 29 P)-Russian priests are bobbing their long hair after the fashion of the American girls. Some of them are also discard ing their boards.
 This is done for reasons of hygiene and convenience, but more particu- larly to render their appearance on the street less conspicuous. For among athletic Bolsheviks a priest is looked upon with disdain. Formerly members of the Russian orthodox clergy wore long flowing hair which fell loosely over their shoulders, giv- ing them a patriarchal appearance. Many of them cultivated bushy whis- kers which reached almost to their waists.

 FOR ROBBERY
 OF CIGAR STORE

Charles Johnson and Robert M Carr who were arrested last evening, and were this morning charged with burg larizing the cigar store of Christ Lar sen on Christmas morning, were ar raigned in a preliminary hearing at 2 o'clock this afternoon before Curtis R. Morford, United States Commis- sioner The prisoners waived their rights to attorney and entered pleas of guilty, whereupon the court sen fenced them to serve one year each in the Federal jail at Valdez
 On Christmas Day complaint was made to the local marshal's office that a quantity of cigars and tobaccos had been stolen from the cigar store of Christ Larsen; also portable type writer from the Commerce restau- rant, next door.
 Deputy Marshal Frank Hoffman ran down what few clues he found suspicion centering upon Johnson and Carr. Johnson was arrested last even ing on the waterfront, and Carr this morning. A search of Johnson's cab in was made yesterday which revealed a gunny sack of tobaccos and chew ing gum. Carr has been in Seward the past three or four years, and gen orally followed longshoreing. He is about 39 years old Johnson, who is "A years of age, was born in Valdez, a son of Rose Johnson, pioneer mine owner, who died several years ago. He has been working for the Bureau of Public Roads for some time and came to Seward when the crews were laid off.
 Following the sentencing of the prisoners, l.. V. Ray, attorney, who was present during the hearing, ad- dressed the small crowd of spectators in which he explained that several things were considered by Judge Mor- ford before meting out the sentences .The principal one was that if the case was held over for grand jury, a number of months would elapse; and second that difficulty and much ex- pense might be encountered in procur- ing the witnessee who by that time might be out of the Territory.
 Taking these and other matters into consideration, following consultation it was recommended providing the prisoners entered plea of guilty, the prisoners would be arraigned on a larceny charge which carries mini mum sentence of one and maximum sentence of seven years. '"The prop erty of citizens will be safeguarded always to the fullest extent of the law" MT. Ray stated, and said, "This explanation is due you gentlemen. Prior to sentencing each man Judge Morford admonished the prisoners, pointing out the duty of the court in connection with their moral Iaxness.

that impresses a stranger

Hornsby has remarkably
brilliant eyes and the clean

dered, clean and intelligent.
It is easy to see where he gets
his tremendous power with the bat
