DIGGS’ FATE
Government Bends Every Effort to
Speed Trial of Federal Immi
gration Commissioner’s Son on
the Charge of “White Slavery.”
Former California State Architect,
Facing Four to Twenty Years in
Prison, Plans Appeal—Compan
ion to Follow Suit if Convicted.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 23.—Su-
premely confident after the conviction
of Maury I. Diggs, former State archi
tect, the United States authorities,
prosecuting the famous “white slave”
cases, which at one time threatened
to disrupt President Wilson’s Cabi
net. are using every energy to speed
the trial and obtain a similar verdict
against Drew Caminetti, who was
Diggs’ companion in the sensational
flight to Reno with Marsha Warring
ton and Lola Norris.
Diggs will be sentenced September
2. Under the verdict of the jury, the
Judge can fix the penalty at from four
to twenty years, and owing to the
fact that virtually the same evidence
that was introduced against Diggs
will be introduced against Caminetti,
leads the Government to believe' that
conviction is certain.
Diggs’ attorneys have already an
nounced they will carry the case to
the highest court in the land. Should
Caminetti be convicted, he, too, doubt
less would appeal.
Diggs Gives $20,000 Bail.
Bail in the sum of $20,000 was read
ily furnished by Diggs’ relatives when
the amount was fixed by the court
and was accepted by the United States
Commissioner.
The case was one of the most spec
tacular ever tried in California. Diggs
is a former State architect. Caminetti
is a son of the United States Commis
sioner of Immigration. Both men are
married and have families. Both are
of high social standing in Sacra
mento.
Both men are considerably older
, that the girls with whom they eloped.
The undisputed evidence in the case
was that the intimate relations be
tween Diggs and Miss Warrington and
Caminetti and Miss Norris had be
come notorious In Sacramento. Fam
ilies of both the young men were pre
paring to start criminal action against
them to break these relations.
Then they and the girls disappeared.
They were traced to Reno, where the
two couples were living as men and
wives in a rented bungalow. The men
were charged with violations of the
Mann anti-white slave act.
Blames Girls for Elopement.
Both Miss Warrington and Miss
Norris charged that the men had
threatened, cajoled and coerced them
into making the trip to Reno. They
declared that they had promised to
obtain divorces from their wives in
order to wed them.
Diggs, in his defense, pleaded that
the girls were the persons responsible
for the flight, that they had induced
them to fly to Reno.
It was this attitude of hiding behind
a woman’s skirt that caused the most
severe condemnation of Diggs. Great
stress was laid on it by Theodore
Roche, attorney for the Government,
in his final appeal to the jury for con
viction.
“This defendant,” said Roche, “did
not deny on the stand the truth of the
essential facts we have shown. And

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—G. Lister

sued by his wife for alimony, testified
that he was receiving only $10 a week.
His employer, A, M. Ryon, called as

“Is he worth more money?” asked
the Magistrate.
“He certainly is,” replied Mr. Ryon;
"formerly I paid him $18 a week, but
he asked to have his salary reduced
to $10.”
The Magistrate promptly ordered
Pinkham to pay his wife $5 a week

PHILADELPHIA, Aur. 23.—All
controversies regarding the disposi
tion of the estate of Benjamin Frank
lin have been settled by the restora
tion of his will by the manuscript
repair department of the Historical
Society of Pennsylvania.
The document, recently resurrected
then he comes before you and asks
acquittal.
“Hides Behind Wife’s Skirts.”
“The defendant in a criminal case
usually bases defense on the presump
tion of innocence, but this defendant
relies on his own depravity. He comes
into court covered with his own
shame and hides behind the skirts of
his wife and child.
“When these girls went to Reno
their departure meant social ostra-
cizement. Marsha Warrington went
because she believed and trusted this
man. She didn't desire money,
dresses or presents. Her parents gave
her these. But this man had prom
ised her marriage, as Caminetti had
promised Lola Norris.
“Those promises were never in
tended to be kept. What was intend
ed was to abandon the girls in Reno.
They never could have returned to
Sacramento—and you know what that
meant. But the alluring promise of
marriage had been held out to them.”
Scores Conduct in Home.
Attorney Roche was particularly
severe with Diggs for the misconduct
in his own home to which he testi
fied yesterday. He had not been con
tent. said Roche, with making an as
signation house out of his office, but
he was similarly to degrade the pri
vacy 6f a home he shared with a
virtuous and loving wife.
In seeking to establish that the trip
was not premeditated and that the
two girls had not been induced to
take it by threats of scandal on one
hand and promises of marriage on the
other, Diggs willingly testified to his
own misconduct and the embarrass
ments, domestic and business, into
wmch it had led him.
His counsel in summing up the evi
dence did not palliate these acts.
“Paint this defendant as you will—
a monster if you please,” argued Rob
ert Devlin, his senior counsel, “but
tell me what motive he would have
had in going out of the State for the
purpose of accomplishing those things
already accomplished.
Act Not White Slavery.
“Counsel may characterize him as
they please, and I may not differ with
them. They say his act was shame
less, and I may feel the same way
about it, but it isn’t white slavery.”
This was the whole argumentative
substance of the defense. There re
mained the rhetorical and the emo
tional appeals and, of course, they
were not neglected. The girls were
blamed for tempting the men. They
were called willing accomplices in
what evil had been done, and the wis
dom of trusting a woman scorned
when she bears witness against the
lover who has discharged her was
called into question.
‘Perfect Baby’ Fed on
Soup and Vegetables
Hundred Per Cent Child Also Gets
Abundance of Water and
Fresh Air.
PASSAIC. N. J., Aug. 23.—“Good,
substantial food, well cooked. Is what
I feed him,” said Mrs. Thomas Wat-
terston, of No. 110 Central avenue,
when asked how she reared her son,
Leslie, just declared the only 100
per cent perfect baby in the “better

hundred infants contested. He is 27
months old.
“He gets soups, 'ruit. vegetables,
puddings, cereals," continued the
mother. “I give him very little meat,
few eggs, but plenty of water, inside
and out.”
Baby Leslie goes to bed about *
p. m. and arises about 7:30, awaken

out into the fields before breakfast.
He has a two-hour nap every after
noon, and always sleeps with the

Standardize Book to
Simplify Grammar
Educators Work to Have Study of
English Language Made More
Uniform.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Aug. 23.-
Standardization of grammatical nomen
clature, which will do away with the
confusion in the study of English, as
well as other languages, in American
schools, has been effected by a commit
tee of fifteen, of which Professor Hills,
of Colorado College, was a member.
The committee made a report to the
National Educational Association in
convention at Salt I^ake City and its
adoption without amendment virtually
insures the following of the committee’s
recommendations in all schools and col
leges.
According to Professor Hills it was
found that in the sentence “John - is
good.” the word “good” was called by
nine different names in 25 grammars;
th* 3 word "John” in ‘This is John," was
called by nineteen terms, and in "We
made John president,” the word “presi
dent” was given eighteen different
names in the t>xt books examined.
CINCINNATI, Aug. 2.°*.—Miss Alice McConaughy, 13 year-old school
girl, is the first person to obtain an ojierator’s license under the new laws
regulating wireless telegraphy on the Great Lakes, even if she did get it
on something of a fluke.
The license was issued before the inspector discovered that he had failed
tc notice the age of the applicant, whose father is a national bank examiner
of Ohio. /
“I did give them the right ago,” declared Alice. “I sent for the blanks
and filled them out myself.”
Her work on the demonstration set was satisfactory. The youthful
operator installed her own apparatus at home, doing all the wiring und even

Chester Boynton Sue
By Wife for Libel
Echo of Famous Litigation Against
Rev. William B. Ayres in
New Case.
BOSTON. Aug. 23 —Mrs. Helen Ther
esa Willet Boynton, of Wollaston, Mass.,
wife* of Chester A. Boynton, who some
time ago created a sensational church
scandal by suing the Rev. William B.
Ayres, pastor of the Park and Down
Congregational Church, Wollaston, for
$10,000 for alienation of Mrs. Boyn
ton's affections, has filed a libel for
divorce from her husband on the
grounds of cruel and abusive treatment.
Boynton claimed in his suit that the
minister had broken up his home after
joining the Boynton household as a
boarder. Mr. Ayres and Mrs. Boynton
in the former’s case of defense de
nied all of the husband’s allegations and
declared that the whole trouble in the
Boynton household sprang out of Boyn
ton’s attentions to a choir girl at the
Park and Down Church, at which Boyn
ton and his wife were both prominent
members.
Boynton lost his suit and was ex
pelled from the Wollaston church. Boyn
ton is now living at Los Angeles.

Last Birthday and Gives Surr
day School Advice.
NEWBURGH, N. Y„ Aug. 23.—
William T. Osborne, of this city, was
101 years old to-day and he didn’t
mind it a bit.
Answer to “Old Subscriber,” "Vox
Populi,” “Constant Reader” ana
“Friend of the Paper:” NO, HE
NEVER SMOKED OR DRANK.
In the spring of 1841—when he was
29—four physicians visited him at dif
ferent times to give him some con
crete idea of how much longer he
was going to adorn the earth. All
said he was firmly in the grip of con
sumption. Three said he’d be lucky
to last more than a few days. The
fourth said Osborne didn’t have a
chance of picking anything off the
next Christmas tree.
The four doctors are dead.
Five generations gathered at his
home to-day. Naturally, he was de
lighted. Being a regular communi
cant of Trinity Methodist Church, he
went there this morning. He wanted
to walk, but- the temperature madu
that seem unwise. Before the service
he adaressed a class in the Sunday
school and told the scholars to be
clean in their habits, stick on the
sprinkling cart and keep up a strong
activity in labor. He thinks that if
he hadn't worked so hard he would
not have taken part in to-day’s party.
The old man didn’t dance any jigs
to indicate that he was as lively as
he used to be, but he gave plenty of
evidence that he was around the
place. A natural decline in the power
of his eyes recently forced him to give
up reading but lie still writes, can
hear well, enjoys walking and has a
good memory.
He was born nine miles from New
burgh. He has been a farmer, tan
ner and storekeeper. His wife Sarah
died eleven years ago at the age of
91.
from a vault under the City Hall
for the purpose of verifying an of
fice copy, was found to have dete
riorated so much during more than
a century of obscurity that it was
practically indecipherable. Through
the renovating process to which it
was subjected it has regained much
of its original freshness and legibil
ity, making it possible for every de
tail to be understood.
In a finely-worded passage he
makes disposition of his best cane as
follows: “My fine crabtree walking
stick with a gold head curiously
wrought in the form of the cap of
liberty I give to my friend and the
friend of mankind. General Washing
ton. If it were a scepter, he has mer
ited it and would become it. It was
a present to me from that excellent
woman, Mme. de Forback, the Dow
ager Duchess of Deux Ponts.”
A small painting of the King of
France, presented to him by that
monarch, which was mounted in a
frame containing 408 diamonds, he
bequeathed to his daughter, with the
following curious proviso: “The
King of France’s picture, set with 408
diamonds, to my daughter, Sarah
Bache, on the condition that she is
not to form any of the diamonds into
ornaments either for herself oi
daughters, and, therefore, counte
nance the expensive, vain and useless
fashion of wearing jewels in this
country.”

MORGANTOWN, W. VA., Aug. 23.
Thornton Flowers, of Mora, claims
that by treating the common firefly or
lightning bug with a secret chemical
process he has produced a light sur
passing the tungsten incandescent.
He has his home illuminated with the
new light.
Several weeks ago, Flowers says, he
captured an immense lightning bug.
It gave out a brilliant light, and this
gave him an idea that the light from
fireflies would illuminate a room if
they were made to glow incessantly-
He hit upon a mixture of chemicals,
which, he says, not only will retain
the glow after the insect’s life is ex
tinct, but will increase it.
He captured the insects by hun
dreds, treated them with chemicals
and placed them in globes throughout
his home.

IT EVOLVED
Urges Patrons to Eat Dishes That
Will Not Be Productive of
Bodily Heat.
By AMY LYMAN PHILLIPS.
The art of keeping cool has been
occupying the attention of men and
women who, for one reason or an
other. are obliged to remain in town
during the hot weather.
The triumph of mind over matter
with the thermometer registering up
In the nineties would indicate that a
study of metaphysics gives returns in
personal comfort. It is one thing to
dispute the thermometer, another lo
recognize its ambitious climb and to
keep cool in spite of it.
In other words, keeping cool is
largely a state of mind, and the phi
losopher is the most immune to the
wilting of an August scorcher.
Keeping cool in mind and keeping
cool in body are two different things.
There is no question, though, that
if the body be kept cool through con
sistent diet, the mind will take care
of itself. Richard Verzoni, the maitre
d’hotel of the Copley-Plaza, is an ex
ponent of this theory and through hla
catering to the rich in such warn
places as Palm Reach and Italy, has
studied the matter until he has
evolved a regular diet for hot weather
that, he asserts, will counteract ill
the effects of heat and give personal
comfort such as can never be attained
by the person who eats whatever
happens to strike his fancy.
The Oriental Food Theory.
Verzoni creates many delightful
dishes for hot weather and is only one
of many Boston and New York ex
perts who try to induce their patrons
to eat less In hot weather, and to eat
more consistently of things that will
not create bodily heat. In the Orien
tal and southern countries where heat
is extreme, highly seasoned foods are
in order, like the Enchiladas of Mex
ico, the Olla Podrida of Spain, the
Curries of India and the Pilafs of
Turkey, the theory being that the
blood is drawn to the stomach, thus
relieving the head of congestion.
An ideal breakfast for a sultry day
is fruit, chilled in the ice box, or
orange juice nicely iced, tea or coffee,
and very thin buttered toast. All hot
cereals are heating, and so is cream.
Eggs cooked simply are permissible,
but never meat unless It be a rasher
of bacon. The hot weather luncheon
should consist of only two or three
things, and the dinner may be all cold,
or it may include a hot entree or
vegetable. But wjien the thermometer
is high, let the housewife arrange
her menu so as to counteract the heat
in every possible way and lighten her
own burdens into the bargain.
Dishes Easily Prepared.
Some of the famous dishes served
in Boston and New York restaurants
may be easily prepared at home, and
those that follow are simple enough
so that they can be prepared by any
one familiar with the rudiments of
cookery.
Verzoni gives one or two which he
has created himself that can not be
obtained elsewhere, and others in
clude some from the greatest chefs of
modern days in Europe, Escoflier. the
dean of them all; Negresco, Henri
Veyrand, etc.
Breast of Guinea Hen Helene.
Chicken may be prepared in the
same fashion, says Richard, who
vouches for this as one of the most
delicious luncheon dishes of the Cop-
ley-Plaza. Cook the breasts of guinea
hen, which have been sliced from the
fowl with a sharp knife, in hot water,
until tender. This is called “poach
ing” by European chefs. Set it in the
icebox to chill.
Cut for each breast—and one is al
lowed for each person to be served—
a thick slice of pineapple in the same
shape as the breast. Into two table
spoonfuls of melted butter blend a
half teaspoonful of English mustard,
and toss the pineapple in this to make
it a little piquant. Arrange nicely on
the serving dishes or in cooottes, put
on each a slide of the cold chicken
breast and mask all over with some
chicken jelly or a^nle jelly, and set in
the ice box to chill.
Ninon Salad Made of Celery.
Cut three or four stalks of celery in
tlnv julienne strips and sprinkle some
of them over hearts of romaine, one
for each person to be served. Take a
piece of verv hard, boiled Virginia,
ham and grate fine, mix with paprika
and dust over the top of the romaine
until.it is quite red. Then pour around
a French dressing made in propor
tion of three tablespoonfuls of oil to
one of vinegar and one-half teaspoon
ful of chili sauce, or more if wanted
redder. Season with paprika, sal:
and black pepper and a dash of Eng
lish mustard if liked very hot.
Richard has an original manner of
preparing a squab chicken in casse
role for the cold dinner. One squab
chicken for each person is cooked,
taken from the stock and cooled in a
casserole for individual service. The
little earthen casseroles for individ
ual service cost but a few cents each.
A sauce is made from a cup of cream,
highly seasoned with salt, paprika and
grated horeradish and thickened with
a roux of flour and cold water until
quite thick, then at the last moment
neutralize the horseradish, and this !s
allowed to get quite cold in the ice
box, then some of it is spread over
each chicken in its casserole, cover
ing it entirely and w’ell chilled before
serving.
Salade Nina Is delicious to
serve with this and is quite new. To
make It. take some watercress, the
desired quantity, and about one-»ixth
as much celery cut in tlnv Julienne
strips, and some preserved figs
drained from their juice and cut fine.
These are tossed together in French
dressing highly seasoned with papri
ka. and for the last word of elegance,
flavor the dressing with a soupcon of
anisette cordial.
America’s Oldest
Church Discovered
Ruins of Centuries-Old House of
Worship Off Yucatan Visited
by Explorers.
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 23.—The
ruins of the oldest Christian church
in America have been discovered on
the Island of Cozumel off Yucafan by
Professor Morley and Jesse Nusbaum,
of the Harvard-San Diego expedition.
Cozumel has not been visited by
white men for almost a century, and
Morley and Nusbaum had thrilling
adventures, but deny that its people
are cannibals. The scientists were
equipped with a moving picture out
fit. but in leaving the island for the
mainland their canoe was upset and
much of the photograph material was
spoiled.
While Cozumel is only 3ft by 7
miles in extent, it was found extraor
dinarily rich in monumental and
architectural remains. It was here
that Cortez had a fierce battle with
the natives and erected what is de
clared to have been the first Christian
church in America.

JANESVILLE, WIS., Aug. 23 —Mayor
James A. Fathers was the victor by a
narrow margin to-day in Wisconsin's
first recall election of importance un
der the commission form of govern

Harness Race Purses at Panama-
Pacific Exposition Will Total
$225,000.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 23.—Th*
greatest live stock show in the his
tory of the world is assured at the
Panama-Pacific International Expo
sition in 1915. Following the appro
priation by the exposition manage
ment of $175,000 for awards for prize
winning live stock, and the news that
$225,000 is offered in purses for har
ness races, each new announcement
by Chief of the Department of Live
Stock D. O. Lively discloses increas
ing interest in the forthcoming live
stock exhibition.
The live stock department has at
its disposal 50 acres of ground which
will be devoted to the erection of live
stock buildings, a hall for live stock
congresses and agricultura.1 meetings,
a race track, and an open field upon
which will be held drills, international
cavalry horse contests, polo contests
and exhibitions of the prize live
stock of the world.
Sections To Be Separated.
The live stock buildings will be con
structed more from an exhibition
standpoint than in keeping with any
farm utility plan; the vast rows of
barns which have characterized the
live stock departments of other ex
positions will be avoided. Every
separate section will be shown under
a single roof.
In addition to the $175,000 set aside
by the exposition management to be
used in cash premiums, more than
$45,000 has been offered by organiza
tions representing various phases of
the live stock industry. Of the prizes
offered by the exposition, $50,000 will
be given to horses, $50,000 to cattle,
$25,000 to sheep and goats, $25,000 to
swine, $12,000 to poultry, pigeons and
pet stock, $7,600 to carloads of cattle,
sheep and swine, $5,000 for prize
winning dogs and cats.
Plan Great Poultry Show.
The department is making arrange
ments for holding the biggest poultry'
show on record, and birds from all
over the world will compete for in
ternational prizes. The pigeons will
take their place in the exposition not
only as applied to th e fancy, but as a
utility, and some of the birds will be
used as carriers, taking part in races
across the continent from San Fran
cisco.
Under the auspices of the Pacific
Coast Trotting Horse Breeders’ Asso
ciation, the exposition will give two
harness race meets, one in the spring
and one in the fall of 1915, at which
there will be offered $225,000 in stakes
and purses. With one or two excep
tions, the special stakes included in
the grand aggregate of $225,000 will
be the greatest that ever have been
offered.
