Morris and his son have had suspicions for some time that some one has been tampering with their kerosene barrel, which is located just outside the house and provides fuel and light to the household. So, one going one way and another the other, they came around the outside of the house and run onto a man whom they know well at the barrel, with a buck et under the faucet and the coal oil running into the pail. He mumbled ;ome explanation and hastened for home with his bucket. The amount that he might have secured at one visitation would not have come to a great deal in dollars and cents, but nevertheless he was stealing just as much as though he had taken more expensive property and Mr. Morris, who has a large family to support can ill afford to lose any of his earnings in this manner. Mr. Morris has not divulged the name of the visitor. The state senate in committee of the whole during a brief afternoon ! cession Monday looked over S. F. 58,1 j but appeared in no mood to place its stamp of approval upon it at thatj time. It is a voluminous measure which if enacted would leave State Land Commissioner Leo Swanson twiddling his thumbs in a nice big office with nothing to do except serve j as custodian of the capitol, and other ' bills pending would transfer the cus-' todianship to "Governor Cochran and his state engineer. The bill under consideration in the senate was introduced by the com-j mittee on school lands and funds,' Neeland chairman. It leaves the, state land commissioner in his con- i stitutional place as a member of the ' board of educational lands and funds, but it takes all his duties as conimis- j sioner of public lands and buildings and bestows them upon the full board of five state officers, of which the commissioner is one. Wherever the present laws says the commis-! sioner shall perform a duty the bills substitute the name of the full board and authorizes the board to appoint a paid secretary and other employes and takes from the commissioner all ' records of lands and funds and : places them in an office to be pro-; vide-1 in the capitel where the board j and its secretary are to perform all ; duties relating to lands and build-j ings owned by the state. The present , commissioner is a republican. The ' other members of the board are demo-: cratic state officers, with the gover- j nor as chairman. It relieves the com- j missioner of the duties of secretary j of the board. J The entire bill was read but no action was taken. It will be consid-j ered again at the next session of the committee of the whole senate. I MAGNATE'S FATE DEBATED Boston. A Jury deliberated the fate of Roger E. Baker, leather busi ness director, baseball magnate and restaurant owner charged in 134 counts with larceny, false entry and other alleged financial irregularities.

Assistant District Attorney Gillen in his closing arguments charged the defendant stole $275,000 from his employes to finance his love affairs, restaurant business and baseball league. He was denounced as an "arch thief who left his wife desti tute to lavish stolen thousands on a younger woman." PERSHING HAS TROPHY Lordsburg, N. M. Gen. John J. ! Pershing has a new trophy. Passing ; thru the scene of earlier military j activities when he commanded the j expedition into Mexico following the j raid of Pancho Villa, General Persh- ing was presented with an Indian j hatchet by Albert Johnson, who served under him in the A.
