His wife and three chil- dren were burned to death in a fire at the Presidio of Sar Francisco on August 27, 1915, while he was absent from the’ post onduty. Mrs. Pershing was the daughter of Senator Warren of Wyoming.

GANGSTER’S MOLL (Daytona Beach) Kathryn Kelly’s plairit that she would “go stark raving crazy” if separated from her mother in prison may have been a per- fectly sincere expression of filial affection but “Machine Gun” Kelly’s wife seems a | bit latein allowing this sign of human emotion to break through her hard-boiled crust. Both women were sentenced to life in prison for their part in the kidnaping of Charles Urschel. “They couldn’t. be so hard-hearted as to séparate us,” wailed Kathryn, forgetting in her stress of feeling |, that tearing Mr. Ursehel away from his family was not exactly a display of tender heartedness, Before bursting into: tears over Mrs. Kelly’s sad predicament let us consider that she wound up her pleading with a threat as to what may happen if Unele Sam is not considerate enough to put her in the same prison with her mo- ther: “T have plenty of friends who will come and get me if I say the word!” In one bréath the meek. defenseless woman.

That newspaper makes this com- ment: “We frequently hear it said that the old-time independent spirit of the news- paper is gone; that its editorial policy is now subservient to the business end of the plant. Yet this is not true. There is more unselfish idealism in the average focal newspaper than in any other business enter- prise. It frequently speaks out in the way which it believes will be for the good of the nation and of the community, regardless of what the consequences may be from a busi- tiess standpoint. This is more than the average business man will do or could do. Of course, the local newspaper is now on a firmer business basis than papers were back in the early days. This is why it is still improving from year to year, why it is giving its readers a constantly better néws- paper and why it is increasing its influence for good in the community.
