Official's Conviction Ralsi :
Interesting Question.
DOES HE REMAIN AN OFFICIAL?
Head of Lawrence (Mass.) Clly Gov
ernment Found Guilty of Conspir
acy White Must Serve Three
Years In House of Correction.
Salem, Mass., July 14. Fur the first
time In the history of Massachusetts
n mayor of a city linn been sentenced
to prison, and today the lntcre.stlnt:
question has been raised ns to whether
Uie imprisoned mayor can continue to
hold ofllce while serving his term.
Found guilty of conspiring to secure
thu continuation by the board of alder
men of the appointment of James A.
Hamilton as chief of the Lawrence lire
department nnd of conspiring later to
secure Hamilton's reniovnl from that
position, Mayor William P. White of
Lawrence was sentenced to serve
three years In the Essex county house
of correction nnd to pay a flno of
$1,000. Samuel Kress was sentenced
to two and a half years' Imprisonment,
Matthew Burns to two years and
George D. Smart to a year and a half.
Ernest Dube also was convicted but
not sentenced, his case being placed on
flic becnuse he had given evidence for
the prosecution.
Hamilton is now under Indictment
for alleged bribery in securing confirm
ation of his appointment It is expect
ed that he will be placed on trial In
September. He still holds his position
as fire chief.
Mayor White made an impassioned
address to the court, saying that he
had boon innocent of any wrong In
tention. Burns spoke in similar vein,
while the other convicted men made
no statement.
Judge Schofleld was not long in an
nouncing his sentence. He spoke of
the enormity of tiro offense of city of
ficials In violating the dignity of their
ofllec. no also censured the other men
for working in co-operation with the
mayor in his illegal work.
Mayor White was first to receive his
sentence, ne showed many signs of
nervousness. It was thought by his
friends that lie might be placed on
probation on account of the dignity of
his ofilce. As the sentence was read
by the clerk White fell back Into his
chair.
W. K. VANDERBILT, JR.
Young Millionaire Made Assistant
, to President of New York Central.
New York, July 14. W. K. Vnnfler
bllt, Jr., is to turn from horso shows,
automobile ,and motorboat speed con
tests nnd ncroplanlng to Berlous busi
ness, such us made his family famous.
His appointment to bo assistant to the
president of the New York Central
railroad was announced by President
W. 0. Brown.
The announcement was simply made,
and its olllcinl promulgation wis ob
viously framed to minimize tho start
of surprise with which tho public
would receive tho news.
It was set forth that, though people
generally did not know It, Mr, Vender-
bllt had been working for tho New
York Control system under Mr.
Brown's direction for some time and
had tecn found useful and efficient.
Giving him a title in the executive de
partment of tho system was only a re
ward of merit
REINFORCING A WOODEN POST.
Method Suggested for Strengthening
Poles That Are Rotting Away.
Tho Electric Hallway Journal sug
gests a method of reinforcing posts
which might be applied on farms
Reinforcing Poles with Concrete,
where posts in a barn are rather diffi
cult to displace and are rotting away
near the surface of the ground.
As Illustrated In Fig. 1, steel bars
one-half Inch thick and from three
to six feet long are driven into the
posts, one end being sharpened and
bent at right angles. Fig. 3 Illustrates
the mothod of fixing these rods.
Id Fig. 1 a sectional view of the
posts Is shown with concrete setting
about tho decayed section. Fig. 2 il
lustrates the finished Job.
Flowers and Shrubs.
Remove seed pods from shrubs that
have flowered. Keep tho leaves well
cut even If they are a little burned.
Pinch back chrysanthemums.
Cut runners from violets that are
to be In house or cold frames.
Plant pansles and bulbs, daisies,
forget-me-nots and sllene in cold
frames for early spring.
August is the month to sow seed
for next year's perennials. There is
& noble list of them.
House plants taken up In August
and put in pots will make fine plants
and flowers well during the winter.
Repot rubber plants, dracenas,
palms and all house plants.
Keep carnations cut back to mako
good crowns.
Get the soil ready for frames and
potting plants, using ono-thlrd good
cow manure to two-thirds sod soli
from old cow pasture made good and
fine.
Edge walks and clean out weeds.
Keep dahlias well tied up to stakes
with raflla, as it Is soft and will not
cut the plants. Country Life in Amer
ica. Frames for the Hot-Bed.
In many Instances, oiled, water
proof cloth will answer every purpose
for the hot or cold frames, and It is
much less expensive than glass. Com
mon white muslin may be used, and
the simplest way is to saturate tho
muslin with pure, raw Unseed oil;
this may be put on the frames. An
other way is to take three pints of
pale linseed oil, one ounce of sugar
of lead, four ounces of white rosin.
Grind and mix the sugar of lead In a
little oil, then add the other materials
and heat In an Iron kettle, applying
hot with a brush. Thin, stout manllla
paper may bo stretched over n frame
and pasted firmly down with fresh
flour pasto, then painted on both sides
with boiled Unseed oil; but this is
not so lasting as the muslin, nor to bo
recommended where the muslin may
be had.
Lima Beans.
If pole Uraa beans were grown In
drills and supported by net or other
device, there would be less trouble
with fungus diseases. This is a very
profitable crop with gardeners living
near large cities, but fungus troubles
often lead to Its abandonment. An
other advantage In planting In drills
and supporting on wires is that sprays
may be applied with much greater
thoroughness. Most fungus diseases
of the beans may be readily controlled
with Borcaux. mixture.
Fertilizing Beans.
Fertilizing is an important matter
In raising beans. If the soil is too
poor It will not raise good beans and
It will not do to apply barnyard ma
nure directly to the crop. It pays
bettor to apply manure a year in od
vanoo, and if tho farmer wUl give this
crop proper attention ha will find It
will give him as great returns for
money and time Invested as anything
ho can raise.
Angora Goats.
Tho Forestry Department has turn
ed 800 Angora goats out on the moun
tain slopes In the West in the hopo
that they will keep the weds from
growing on tho firebreaks. Thin work
has been a serious exponse and the.
goats are an experiment
MISS JANE ADDAMS.
The First Woman to Receive a Degree

founder of Hull House, Chicago, ex
pressed little surprise when Yale re
cently garo her the degree of master
of arts, tho first time In the history of
tho university n woman has beon thus

light upon tho problem of securing

tho force of her personality and exam
ple to the removal of sentimentality
from phllanthrophy and tho substitu
tion of common sense for it
Miss Addnms Is tbc daughter of
John H. Addams, who was for many
years a member of the Illinois state
legislature and a close friend of Lin
coln. She was born fifty years ago In
Cednrvfllo, HI., and early in life con
ceived tho idea of devoting herself to
tho uplifting of the poor and to char
itable work In general. After graduat
ing from Rockford college In 18S1 sho
went to Philadelphia to study medi
cine, but illness forced her to gtvc up
this plan. After a few years abroad
Miss Addams returned to Chicago to
take up her lifo among tho working
people, not so much to work for them
as with them.
LOEB'S GOOD WORK.
Collector of New York's Port No
Friend of Smugglers.
How many times havo you written
President Tnft urging the Instant re
moval of William Loeb, Jr., collector
of tho port of New York? Probably
half a dozen at least If you are much
of a traveler, for tho way ho has en
forced the custom laws since being
appointed has mado steamship passen
gers so angry that many hove almost
threatened to assnssinate him. Uncle
Sam, however, while deeply regretting
that the custom ofllclnls havo at times
been a bit too Inquisitive or annoying,
is much pleased with Mr. Loeb's work.
There's a reason In foct, several as
some figures just mado public wlU
show.
For Instance, here's a little example
In subtraction that Uncle Samuel has

been pondering for somo time, thor
oughly contented with tho result: Pat

Into a rig suitable for ordinary dinners

Narrow Dutch Collars.
Narrow Dutch collars have caught
the fcmlnino fancy and are shown
in tho cutest combinations of linen or
batiste and embroidery or lace. Mere
frills on a tiny band nre very smart.
Some of these are touched with color
or edged with butter colored lace, tho
latter being a fad at present in Paris.
From two to five Inches Is tho correct
width of these flat neck dressings.
Fichus bid fair to bo very popular, and
very dainty and softening 'to the face
are the new fichu collars. Tdio van
dyke shaped collar Is quaint and
charming to see on women of certain
demure types. A braid of black satin
has taken its place around the top of
many of the plaited or kilted collars.
So chic is tho effect that one does not
appreciate at once its double purpose
of-lengthening the usefulness of those
hard to launder frills.
Novelties in rabats. jabots and tiny
collar bows nre shown in odd shapes
by tho score, with many bits of Per
sian colorings to brighten them up.
THE PENDANT FAD
OF THE MOMENT.
An Expensive Bauble It May Be
or the Reverse,
The pendant is the jewel of the mo
ment nearest a woman's heart, literal
ly and figuratively. Little wonder
when she knows what a pretty touch
it adds to her frock.
A very expensive bauble it may be,
too, when set with dozens of superb
diamonds nnd a huge pearl In tho cen
ter n brilliant wheel of mnny spokes.
One of particularly exquisite work

phires set in shapes of tiny fans whose
handles touch an outsldo circle of
those deep hucd stones.
A very smart touch when a black

than a pendant of finely cut diamonds.
Round flat pendants of gold In Intri
cate pattern are less expenslvo than
the Jeweled sorts and uro high in fa
vor. These nre suspended by n slen
der chain. Quite like some "order" are
many of the handsomely enameled
ones.
Tho French jewelry counters boast
some charming designs in this ultra
fashionablo whim or adornment As
low in prlco us a dollar are plenty of
exceedingly wearable pieces, and they
will wear as long as tho fad. Women
are buying as many as a haf doren of

lovers of thoso fancies, for tho unat
tainable diamonds and fashionablo

To Trim Summer Hat
Ono who understands the art of
building a hat successfully says that a
great deal depends upon tho thread
used for keeping the trimming In
place.
By no means will a slnglo kind of
thread answer for every kind of trim
ming. For lnstnnco, velvet bows
should always bo mado and sewed on,
she claims, with linen thread.
A needle with a threo sided point Is
the proper ono to use.
When ostrich tips are to be sewed
on Ono black thread should bo choseo.
No Jack-Pot for Her.
"Among the gambling stories that
tho late Pat Shcedy used to toll in
his art shop," said a Now York re
porter, "was ono nbo-t a Jackpot."
says the Detroit Free Pros.
"A beautiful young bride, the Btory
ran, entered n corner grocery ono
morning and said:
" 'Havo you got any Jackpots, Mr.
Sands7"
" 'No, ma'am,' Sands nnswercd, and
he had a smile behind his hand. 'I've
got teapots and coffee pots, but Jack
pots, I don't stock.
"'Oh. dear!' said the bride. A
frown wrinkled her Rniooth and beau
tiful brow, 'I'm sorry! You sec, Mr.
Sands, my husband's mother used to
cook for him, and nearly every night
ho talks In his sleep about a Jackpot
So I thought I'd get one, for slnco ho
mentions It so often ho must he used
to It Could you tell me, Mr. Sands,
what they cook In Jackpots?"
" 'GreenB, ma'am,' was tho quick
answer."
Preserving Spiders' Webs.
Naturalists employ an interesting
method to preserve all kinds of spl'
dors' webs. The webs are first spray
ed with an atomizer with artists' shel
lac, and then, should thoy be of tho
ordinary geometric form, they are
pressed carefully against a glass plate,
the sunpof-tlng strands being at the
same time severed.
After the shellac has dried, tho
plates carrying the webs can bo
stored away In a cabinet.
Even dome-shaped webs may bo
preserved In their original form by
spraying them with shellac and then
allowing them to dry before removal
from their supports. Many spiders'
webs aro very beautiful, and all are
characteristic of the species to which
they belong, so that, from a scientific
standpoint, their permanent preserva
tion Is ,very deslrchle.

BAD BILIOUS
ATTACK!
There Is nothing that will more com
pletely knockout a man, or woman cither,
and entirely Incapacitate them for wotk or
pleasure, than a bad attack of biliousness.
You get up with a headache which Increases
If you stoop over. You are dizzy whea.
you stand up straight again. Your tongue
is coated and your mouth tastes bad. Yoc
arc Irritable and out of sorts. That's
a biliousness.
. If you want to get right again remove
the cause. Your bowels are clogged. The
natural sewers of the body fall to carry oSC
the poisonous matter. The bile is being'
absorbed by the blood, and your whole
body is crying out against the imposition.

bed. Then take two more when you retire.
