FOR M'NAMARAS
James B. Is Sentenced for
Life Brother Gets
15 Years.
JUDGE BORDWELL GRILLS BOTH
Calls James B. Murderer at Heart
and Scouts Confession District
Attorney Makes Plea for
Clemency for Dynamiters.
Los Angeles , Cal. Denouncing
James B. McNamara as a murderer at
heart , and declaring that there was
no extenuating circumstances in his
case. Judge Walter Bordwell sentenced
the man who confessed he blew up the
. * * - * Los Angeles Times and caused the
death of 21 men , to life Imprisonment
In the California state penitentiary at
San Quentin.
Immediately thereafter the court
called John J. McNamara , secretary-
treasurer of the International Associa
tion of Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers , before the bar and sentenced
him to serve a 15-year term in the
same prison.
District Attorney Fredericks kept
his promise to the two prisoners given
at the time they made their confes
sions , and begged the court to exercise
leniency.
John J. McNamara , who was arrest
ed at Indianapolis on April 22 last ,
was sentenced on his plea of guilty to
conspiracy in the dynamiting of the
Llewellyn Iron works.
Confession Is Read.
District Attorney Fredericks read
James B. McNamara's confession amid
absolute silence. The confession fol
lows :
"I , James B. McNamara , defendant
in the case of the people , having here
tofore pleaded guilty to the crime of
murder , desire to make this statement
of facts , and this is the truth :
"On the night of September 30,1910 ,
at 5:45 p. m. , I placed In Ink alley , a
portion of the Times building , a suit
case containing 16 sticks of 80 per
cent , dynamite , set to explode at one
o'clock the next morning.
"It was my intention to injure the
building and scare the owners. I did
not Intend to take the life of anyone.
I sincerely regret that these unfortu
nate men lost their lives. If the giv
ing of my life would bring them back
I would gladly give it In fact , in
pleading guilty to murder in the first
degree I have placed my life In the
hands of the state.
"JAMES B. M'NAMARA. "
"Is that statement correct ? " asked
the court.
"It is , " said McNamara.
Calls It First negra Murder.
"Then the court finds , " said the
judge , "that the degree of guilt of the
defendant is murder In the first de
gree. James B. McNamara , you may
stand. What is your full name ? "
"James Boyd McNamara , " answered
the prisoner.
The court then began a formal statement -
ment , reciting the indictment for mur
der of Charles J. Haggerty upon which
McNamara pleaded guilty and asked
McNamara if he had any statement to
make.
N "I have not , " he said.
No Bargain , Says Fredericks.
\ "Have you anything to say ? " the
court asked Mr. Fredericks.
"There has been no dickering or
bargaining In this matter , " he said.
"Counsel on the other side are well
aware of the custom of granting clem
ency to persons pleading guilty. This
defendant by so pleading has settled
for all time a question which other
wise would always have been in
doubt. He saves the state great ex
r , penditure and serves the state In
other ways. "
"The defendant will rise , " said
Judge Bordwell , and commented on
McNamara's declaration that he did
not intend to destroy life.
Contradicts Prisoner's Statement.
"The circumstances are against that
statement , " he said. "A man who will
place 16 sticks of dynamite In a place
where you , as a printer , knew gas was
burning in many places and knew
many were toiling , must have had no
regard for life ; must have been a
murderer at heart and undeserving of
clemency. "
John J. McNamara came next. The
Llewellyn Iron works Indictment was
read to him by the judge. The prlson-
*
er said he had nothing to say. Dis
trict Attorney Fredericks said that , as
In the other case , the plea of guilty
permitted consideration , but pleaded
that the defendant receive "a few
years of freedom near the end of his
life. "
Judge Bordwell declared that the
strictures against James B. McNamara
would apply also to John J. Clemency ,
he said , was not because of merit as
to Intent. He then imposed sentence
of 15 years in San Quentin.

AT DELHI MAGNIFICENT
With Gorgeous Ceremony George and Marj
Are Recognized as Emperor and Empress
of India.
Delhi , India , Dec. 12. In a durbar
which surpassed in splendor every for
mer ceremony ever before held in this
ancient seat of the kings of India , the
proud native rulers of the lanfl. today
did homage to King George and Queen
Mary of England and formally recog
nized them as emperor and empress of
India ,
The durbar , for which elaborate
preparations had been under way for

months , took place In a great camp to
the north of the city , some five miles
square. The temporary population of
this camp is about a quarter of a mil
lion , and it is furnished with all the
conveniences of modern life , includ
ing 31 postoffices , 10 telegraph offices
and even electric light , railways , motor
cars and taxicabs. There the people
gathered for the durbar have been
amusing themselves for several days
with polo , hockey and military tourna
ments and other festivities.
Displays of Jewels Wonderful.
The durbar proper took place in an
Immense semi-circular amphitheater
on the historical ridge where a few
Englishmen once made a heroic stand
against the revolting natives. In the
The king was crowned king-emper
or at Westminster , so he took his
'throne already wearing a crown that
had been made especially for this oc
casion , garbed in the royal robes of
state , wearing the state jewels and
carrying the scepter. By his side sat
Queen Mary , on her brow the crown
that was made for her coronation and
in the front of which blazed the great
Kohinoor , the Indian diamond sup
posed to bring good fortune if worn
by a woman. Her jewels were even
more magnificent than those she wore
at the coronation at Westminster ,
among her new ornaments being a
beautiful lotus flower of diamonds.
She was garbed in the white and gold
embroidered robe worn at the coronaj j
tion. j
Most spectacular was the grand review - j
view of troops , about 90,000 in num
ber. Most of these were native
troops , and they were garbed in the
most gorgeous uniforms in the world.
The rajahs and other native princes
present brought their own elephants ,

the rank of its owner , and the huge

center of the semi-circle was a throng
of gold and silver surmounted by a
copper dome. Taking his seat on
this , George received the homage of
the rulers of the " "
"dim millions" of his
subjects , about 150 ruling princes of
Hindustan. These dusky potentates
were resplendent in the magnificent
jewels for which they have long beeo
famous. Indeed , such a display of
precious stones never before was seen
In modern times. The rajahs , aftep
making their obeisances , grouped *
themselves about the throne , where
also stood the governors of the Asi
atic colonies of the crown , other dis
tinguished government officials and
dahs and other trappings , added much
to the oriental splendor of the scene.
Presents for Indian Subjects.
The king and queen brought from
England a vast number of presents j
for 'their Indian subjects , including a
thousand plum puddings made in the
Buckingham palace kitchens' , and a
great number of rich cakes , York
hams and Stilton cheeses. Then there
are rolls of English linen , piles of.
Buckinghamshire , honiton and point
laces , illustrated books , fancy leather
goods , silverware of all kinds , British
silks and velvets , pictures and photo
graphs and a great variety of other
articles , while there is quite a menag
erie of puppies , kittens and canaries.
EHeans Health
For the Child
The careful mother , \vho watches close
ly the physical peculiarities of her chil
dren , will soon discover that the most
important thing in connection with a
child's constant good health Is to keep
the bowels regularly open. Sluggish
bowels will be followed by loss of appe
tite , restlessness during sleep , irrita
bility and a dozen and one similar evi
dences of physical disorder.
At the first sign of such disorder give
the child a teaspoonful of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and
repeat the dose the following night if
necessary more than that will scarcely
be needed. You will find that the child
will recover Its accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.
This remedy Is a vast Improvement
over salts , cathartics , laxative waters
and similar things , which are altogether
too powerful for a child. The homes of
Mrs. Evelyn Matson , 516 Milwaukee St. ,
Milwaukee , Wis. , and Mrs. Kate Hawley ,
Waukesha. "Wis. , are always supplied with
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin , and with
them , as with thousands of others , there
is no substitute for this grand laxative.
It is really more than a laxative , for It
contains superior tonic properties which
help to tone and strengthen the stomach ,
liver and bowels so that after a brief
use of It all laxatives can be dispensed
with and nature will do Its own work.
Anyone wishing to make a trial of this
remedy before buying it In the regular
way of a druggist at fifty cents or one
dollar a large bottle ( family size ) can
have a sample bottle sent to the home
free of charge by simply addressing Dr.
W. B. Caldwell , 201 Washington St. ,
Monticello , 111. Tour name and address
on a postal card will do.
Husoand Was Willing.
The Scot has no monopoly of domes
tic felicity , as many a piquant para
graph hears witness. The other day
an old farmer and his wife were "do
ing" the sights of a provincial town ,
and , among other pltfces , they visited
a panorama of South Africa.
The views were extremely interestIng -
Ing , and the couple were enjoying
themselves to the full. As scene after
scene passed , the woman's enthusl-
asm increased , and at length , turn
ing to her hushand , she exclaimed :
"Oh , Sandy , this is really splendid.
I could jist sit here all my days. "
"Ah , weel , Jennie , woman , " replied
Sandy , to the mirth of those sitting
near , "just sit you still there ; I'll not
grudge the saxpence. "
Precise.
The proofreader on a small middle-
western daily was a woman 'of great
precision and extreme propriety. One
day a reporter succeeded in getting
into type an item about "Willie Brown ,
the hey who was hurned in the West
end by a live wire. "
On the following day the reporter
found on his desk a frigid note ask
ing , "Which Is the west end of a
boy ? "
It took only an Instant to reply
"The end the son sees on , of course. "

Some Undertaking.
The official undertaker of a small
town was driving through the county
on one of his regular missions. A
woman came out to the gate of a farm
yard and hailed him.
"I don't seem to recall your name ,
madam , " he said.
"That's funny ! " she said. "It ain't
been more'n a year and a half ago
since you undertook my first hus
band. "
Just to Make Sure.
"How shall I express my sentiments
toward you ? " said the young man ,
tenderly.
"On paper , please , " said the girl.
"Then there can be no chance of your
wriggling out of it. "

THE LITTLE WIDOW
A Mighty Good Sort of Neighbor to
Have.
"A little widow , a neighbor of mine ,
persuaded me to try Grape-Nuts when
my stomach was so weak that it
would not retain food of any other
kind , " writes a grateful "woman , from
San Bernardino Co. , Gal.
"I had been ill and confined to my
bed with fever and nervous prostra
tion for three long months after the
birth of my second boy. We were in
despair until the little widow's advice
brought relief.
"I liked Grape-Nuts food from the
beginning , and In an incredibly short
time it gave me such strength that I
was able to leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals a day. In 2
months my weight increased from 95
to 113 pounds , my nerves had steadied
down and I felt ready for anything.
My neighbors were amazed to see me
gain so rapidly , and still more so
ffhen they heard that Grape-Nuts
ilone had brought the change.
"My 4-year-old boy had eczema very
flad last spring and lost his appetite
entirely , which made him cross and
peevish. I put him on a diet of Grape-
Nuts , which he relished at once. He
improved from the beginning , the ec
zema disappeared and now .he Is fat
and rosy , with a delightfully soft , clear ,
Skin. The Grape-Nuts diet did it I will
