StciaL Women make pour convicts, that In evident from the report of Warden Erar filed with Governor Shallenberger. Though there ara only ix wnmen In tha prison and their quarters are tha best the state can furnish they refuse to dwell in pence and har mony, andean they have had to ba pun ished. Grace Allen no far f-wgot her "raising" a to fight. May Thomas, she. of diamond fame, stooped to the same degrading ex ercise. arl(i o aiii Nettie Miles. Mildred Bowles ia sick, but why the other two women p runners were not Included In the scrap the report does not say. and neither does It say they acted as referees. Any how the warden wa pained at what hap pened, so in order to tsch them better he deducted from Grace Allen's good time Just forty days, ten more than a month: from May Thomaa good time ha took off sixty days, showing that she got the bet ter of the srr&p at least: and from Nettle Miles good time there were- deducted forty days.

Asserting that remorse overwhelmed him when Jie discovered that he had Just robbed hla mother, Dick Andrews Friday surren dered to the Lincoln police. To Detective Malone he confessed a num ber of crimes. According to his story ha is a pickpocket, a bank wrecker and a confidence man. The tale, if true, rivals the elaborate Imagery, of modern novelists. Andrews, according to his story, is over- ! whelmed with remorse. Thursday night, after taking from a woman's purse a roll of billa, he recognised In the face of his victim his aged mother. Mrs. Andrews .was on her way to her home In Chicago and was compelled to change cars at Lincoln. As the Rock Island train pulled in the passengers made a rush for the cars. An drews saw an aged, well dressed woman carrying two suit casea. Dangling from her wrist was a purse. Andrews rushed up to where1 the crowd waa the thickest and gently opened the purse that waa hanging from the woman's wrist. From tt he took roll of bills. In order to make hla get away he boarded the car intending to pass through and get off a the other entrance. As- he entered he was crowded past hia victim and In looking back recog nized tha face of his mother. This wtva mora than the man who had slugged his victims on previous occasions could stand. The remaining spark of love and manhood had been touched. Waiting until the woman waa seated Andre wa bided hia Lime and sneaked by her, dropping the money by her side as he passed. The train pulled out and Andrews Jumped off the car and went to hia room. Early Friday morning he walked Into police headquarters and gave himself up to Chief Cooper. . ' The story he told the police waa one con tinuous tale of crime. Beginning In Chi cago when a mere boy. Andrewa said he had robbed banks, looted jewelry stores, picked pockets, engaged In highway rob bery in nearly every large city of the coun try. He ha been arrested numeroua times and twice sentenced to the penitentiary at Joliet. III., and Columbus. O. He admitted that he had been acquitted of several charge of robbery, but that he wa really guilty. According to his story, he fs wanted tn half a dosen place.

The woman la now serving a twenty-year sentence In Joliet prison for murder. Andrews said that his mother Uvea at 7711 Lowe avenue In Chicago. Hia father waa chief grain Inspector of Chicago for eight years. Detective Ualone ha wired to Chicago to verify Andrews' statements about hia family and whether hia mother aa passing through Lincoln Thursday night. The Chicago police answered saying they were true and that the man wa an ex-convict and new wanted.

At the local Japanese consulate the news was received as anon aa the bill parsed, and on behalf of Vice Cons'-: Ta-'-.ashl Secretary Ko yarns made the foilow lntT statement: "Speaking for the Japanese consul and residents, we are very much reeved that the assembly passed this biH. We d'd not meet that such action would be taken even by the assembly. We are confident, however, that the bill will not pass In the senate, becajae of the attitude of a ma jority of the members of that bouse. Moreover, we feel certain that Governor Oillett, observing tha desires of President Roosevelt, will not sicn the bill, even thou-a tt pass in both bouses. President Roosevelt and Governor Gillett, we bei Iieve. are acting juatly and wisely la this matter."
