His resentment drove all caution

sand-like snow. But he struggled on.
He'd not turn back to Bristol. He'd

GROUNDING
BECOMES PET

Mrs. Alice Smith of the 800
block Marietta Place, N. w.. is
getting a bit bored answering
those trick questions about ground
hogs.
She thinks just as much of her
grounding as most people do Of
their Maletese cat or wire-haired
terrier. Fritz is his name, and he
is the second of his species to
occupy a spot in Mrs. Smiths af-
fections.
About eight years ago, when
Mrs. Smith lived in Uniontown,
Pa, some neighborhood boys
brought her II orphaned wood
chuck puppies. She raised them
all and when they were large
enough to shift for themselves,
liberated all but one. This one
became the family's pet and en-
joyed the run of the house."
Everything went along fine
until one day, while doubling for a
Lion" in the children's game of
circus. large packing case fell
on him, breaking his neck.
But Mrs. Smiths 19-year-old
nephew, James Frank, came to
their rescue with the capture of
Fritz.
He's about six months old now
and is thoroughly used to the idea
of being petted.
Fritz menu consists of ice cream
cones, all kinds Of nuts, cereals,

cratic"
There are flies and flies. DR..
Bishopp knows them all by their
names and habits. Most of them,
to put it plainly, are darn nui-
sances. Some, however, actually
benefit man by devouring eggs

Born as Worms
Most flies are born worms, and,
according to a consensus of popu-
lar opinion. ought never to be-
come anything else.
Fastest of flies is the deer-bot
fly, the estimated rate of his speed
being over 800 miles per hour. He
grows to a length of about two
thirds of an inch and is to the
deer what the horse-fly is to the
horse-a pain in the neck. Only

INDICTS
EX-CLERK ON
II COUNTS
White Slave Charges
Hold 3; Servants
Cleared of Theft

Clinton B. Sherwood, former
financial clerk at Police Court,
was indicted by the District
Grand Jury today on II counts
of embezzling funds of the Dis
trict government. The alleged
defalcations aggregate $505.
The Grand Jury also indicted
two men and a woman on white
slave charges in connection with
their alleged attempts to induce
young woman of this city to
join widespread vice ring.
Removed From Post
Sherwood was recently relieved
of his Police Court position after
Department of Justice auditors
had investigated the financial
records of that court over a
period of several years.
No explanation of the manner
in which the alleged populations
occurred is disclosed in the grand
jury report. He is charged with
converting 500 to his own use
on May 8, 1884; $75 on May IL,
500 on May %, $35 on August
4, $50 on August 6, $40 on August
9, $50 on August ID, $25 on
August q, $25 on August 30, SIS
on September rs and $40 on
october 8.
Many of his friends have of.
fered in extenuation of the
alleged offense the fact that the
system of handling funds in Police
Court in the past has been re.
sponsible for the shortage rather
than an intention to embezzle on
the part of the financial officer.
They point out that the system"
has recently been revised after a
suggestion by the Federal audit.

Held On "Slave" Charge
The white slavery indictment
names James Ray Roderick, Rob-
ert Martin and Betty Bailey, alias
Betty Martin. The two men are
accused of having met the in.
tended victim in a downtown cafe
and persuaded her to go with them
to the apartment of the woman
defendant, where the three made
an unsuccessful attempt to induce
her to join the alleged ring.
Three colored servants in the
home of Sylvia Weinstein, $500
block Bellevue Terrace N. w., were
exonerated of grand larceny
charges by the Grand Jury.
The three, Ester and Annie
Berger and Lonnie Jones, had
been suspected of having removed
from a fireplace at the home
$500 belonging to Sylvia, Max
and Meyer Weinstein. Police re-
covered and returned $4,700 of
the money, but were unable to
trace it as having been taken by
the accused three.
