" Kl^no5s^5iSroMsy Chicago Gangster Likes Jail Sentence, "Kcarface Al" O?pont-, nentenced Friday in Philadelphia to one year in jail for carrying a concealed deadly , weapon, whs believed in some quartera to have aought jail as an asylum from the bullets of rival gangsters. At the brief hearing at which he pleaded vguilty it was intimated he J had courted arrest and that the load- < ed revolver he turned over to police, was carried for that express purpose. The Philadelphia Hecord .Saturday , said that* his action followed receipt of word at Atlantic pity, where he! had asked hostile gang leaders to meet him for a peace pact, that not only would they refuse to meet with him, but that he would be "put on the spot" .and killed at the first opportunity. t Capone went to jail with a smile on his lips and no mention was made of an appeal from the sentence, the maximum jail term for the offense. But Capone's story to police officials i ' '' "Scarface" In Jail "Scarface" A1 , Capone, Chicago gangster and racketeer, who was sentenced to one year in prison at Philadelphia after being charged and convicted of carrying conccakd weapons. who talked with him for more than two hours tended to discount the jailseeking theory. He said he happened to be in Philadelphia at the time of his arrest because he had missed his train for Chicago. He had gone to the movies, he said, to put in the time until his next train. He declared that the rumor that the socalled peace pact in Atlantic City had fallen through was not true. "I'm here because I'm here, although I do feel secure for the first time in a long, long while," he added. To one of the Philadelphia police officials Capone declared: "I have been asked' how I faired in gang warfare in Chicago, whether the odds were in my favor. Well, my answer is this: I'm satisfied, but it's an awful life to lead. You fear death every moment, and worse than death, you fe?ur the rats of the game, who run around and tell the police if you don't constantly satisfy them with money and favors. I never was able to leave my home without my bodyguard. He lives with iAe and has gone with me constantly during the last two years. , "I've tried hard to stop all this killing and gang rivalry. . That was my purpose in going to Atlantj^City. It was a peace'' conference; ^.1 engineered it. Some of the biggest men in the business in Chicago we*e there. "I haven't had any peace of mind in years. Every minute I was in danger of death. Even when I was on a peace errand we must hide from the rest of the racketeers, even to the point of concealing our identity." Five armed bandits robbed an East Orange, N. J., bank of $35,000 last Friday after lining up the bank's officials and clerks. They made an easy getaway. The big rayon companies of Elizabethton, Tenn., have given the 6,000 striking employes of the mills, who walked out April 15, until Monday to return to work. The vice president of the United Textile Workers, simultaneously issued a statement to the effect that "if the plants will take our workers back without discrimination, the strike is ended." Two children, 10 and 12 yearB of age, were killed at Purcellville, Va., Wednesday when they came in contact with a high voltage electric power Kne. University of South Carolina Columbia, S. C. DR. D.

Keep ,them in cool air where they j are working, encouraging out-door exercise in every possible way. Piovide a well-balanced ration. I rovide more room both indoors and out. In severe outbreaks, darken the house so chicks will go to bed. Keep them working, providing n!? rac of greens, bright objects that they can pick up and ,carry so hey run off their surplus energy. Hang up chunks of liver, meat or bacon nnd to keep them doing something harmless. .Add a tcaspoonful 6f salt to each r?ifi water during the forenoons, replacing with fresh water for the afternoons. As an additional suggestion, separate the picked ones promptly badly injured, paint the injured parts with common tar or some other sticky, distasteful material, and if possible keep the injured ones by themselves until recovered. - .' - J Begins Serving Life Sentence Greenwood, May 22.?Cliff McCrary, fifty year old plumber, who was sentenced to life imprisonment following his conviction of murder in connection with the slaying of Mrs. Buck Davis here >on January l<Hh, last, was taken to the state penitenr tiary in Columbia this afternoon to begin serving his sentence.
