GETS s MONTHS TERM
IN THEFT OF II CARS
fitzgerald, Formerly of Washing
ton, Pleads Guilty at Pitts
burgh Trial.

Thomas Raymond Fitzgerald. 80
years old, formerly of Washington, was
sentenced to six months imprisonment
in Pittsburgh, Pa. Monday when he
entered pleas of guilty to ii charges
growing out of the thefts of as many
automobiles in that city that were re-
covered here, according to an Associ-
ated Press dispatch.
Fitzgerald was arrested in his room in
a house at Fifteenth and @ streets the
afternoon of August 10 by Detectives
Jacob Wolf and Eugene Davis of the
automobile squad and IA cars recover
Cd. When placed under arrest, it Is
stated. Fitzgerald claimed that he had
bought cars from a man in Pittsburgh
and brought them here.
Successfully disposing of the first car
he is reported to have stated, he got an
other and another until the string of
stolen cars mounted to IA. Then he
was arrested. Detectives failed to find
the man from whom Fitzgerald said he
had obtained cars, and the prisoner
consented to return to Pittsburgh and
stand trial.
The prisoner told the local detectives
his wife was confined in st. Elizabeth
Hospital and that he contributed $40 a
month to her support. He also is re-
ported to have said he made present
of one of the cars to young woman.
This and the other cars were recovered
and returned to their owners.
When Fitzgerald was arrested he
claimed to have once been an in
structor in the local school system, but
this was denied at Franklin School.

LONDON, September 26.-Sleeping
berths for tl1ird-class passengers were
inaugurated on the few long-distance
railways of Great Britain last night,
marking something of revolution In
travel from the far corners of Scot
land, Wales and England.
The sleeping compartments of first
class cars on British railway lines are
the last word in comfort, but they are
scarce and expensive. The occupant
enjoys everything from the services of
a valet to breakfast in bed but he must
Gravel first-class. which costs twice
as much as third. and then pay an adj

compartment.
British night trains have in the past
carried one or two sleepers with a
dozen third-class day coaches crowded
with men, women and children sleeping
sitting upright in the carriages" or
when the trains are damned, sprawled
in the corridors.
The innovation of third-class sleep
ers enables the ordinary passenger to
obtain a berth for SITS. The COM
partments are four-bunk affairs with
out privacy.
Each berth is equipped with a pillow

SUMMERTIME
RI n. G. PEATTIE.

There was once a man of no par
ticular note and about whom there
was nothing more remarkable than
that. above all things. he loved those
that grow-lttle fragile ferns and the
blue eyes of speedwell looking up out
of lawns and the deep corollas of trum-
pet flowers with bees exulting> inside
of them. He lived In this world for
10 happy years, the last Ave OF them
the perfection of human happiness.
And then he lost, as many kings have
done, one-half of his kingdom-not his
eyesight, nor his love of nature, but
something more precious than these;
something only less precious than his
wife. He lost his daughter. He knew
that he would never again see the sun
laughing in her 4-year-old curlS, ana
for a moment the luster Of life went
out. and the flowers in the dresses OF
full Summer were dead as December.
But Summertime is what 1t Is: 1t
has known in its cycles an inf1nitude
of griefs. And just at this time OF year,
when the asters trail smoke across the
hills and the boneset is misty IN the
marshes, and the deep ripe pods OF
milkweed burst and thrown their silken
arposies on the Summer wind he went
back to nature and found what he
wanted, it seemed at times, above all
things. In all things little and gay
and innocent he found again, he learned
again, he touched again, the feet like
rain. the laugh like brooks, the eyes
like gentians.
