ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS. ARLINGTON GETS LIFE SENTENCE A Swindler of Women Gets His Dues. { i Osakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway. Sept. 27. Arthur Arling . arch bunkoer and gay decelver of unsuspecting women, was to- day sentenced by Superior Judge Hall to life imprisonment in San Quentin. The prisoncr was convicted of grand larceny on August 19 last in having robbed Mrs. Minnie M. Smith of 3214, after he had wormed himself into her confidence by proposing to engage her as his house- keeper. The larceny was committed while the (‘a\xF!e were out at Piedimont Springs on April 14 last talking the matter over. When the case was called for fixing sentence to-day Attorney J. E. McElrath made an extended argument on a motion for a new trial on the ground that the tions to the. jury. The motlon, however, was denjed, and | Judge Hall then pronounced life sentence, | and in doing so sald: | “Arlington, you have been imprisoned | twice before for offenses similar to the| one of which you now stand convicted, | For the first offense you were sentenced | to five yea imprisonment, and for the | second ten years. You had not been out | of prison very long the last time until| vou repeated the offense. The object of | punishment is two-fold. First, to veform | the criminal, and secondly, to protect so- | clety. Previous experience has shown that it §s impossible to reform you, no | matter how long the term of 1mpr|5!m-| ment, and that you are utterly depraved. It is the judgment of this court that you, Arthur Arlington, be {mprisoned in the State Prison at San Quentin for the term of vour natural life.” The words dld not move the convict one whit. He sat stolld and brazen, as was his wont during his last sensational trial. A writ of probable cause was signed b Judge Hall and served on Sheriffl Rogers which will have the effect of keeping Ar lington in the County Jail until the Su- preme Court can pass upon his avfle;\l. which will occupy at least four months. Arlington remarked to fellow prisoners the corridor at the as he returned to County Jall that he was satisfied with ! the sentence; In fact, he preferred life ) sentence to 4 sentence of five or ten years, “because 1t gives a better chance of win- | ning on appeal,” as he put it | ) ,‘.‘E*Eiv The foundation of knowl- edge must be laid by reading. —Samuel Johnson. :‘ fi;fi‘gOQ‘!i + o & * ® P » P * b + 4230530230530 23023 0 %50 4 The Calls Home Study §| & Circle will furnish the very %! & highest class of reading.

Auditor Wells in- formed him that there would be a chance of getting not one cent and advised him to shut off all phones upon the payment for which city officials would not stand personally responsible. Upon this an- nouncement Secretary Eaton served upon the Auditor official notice that all tele- phones In the service of the city would be removed on October 1 unless maintained at_the individual expense of the users. | The city's telepNone bill amounts something over $12,00 each vear. Every oliceman has one in his home, “eve: upervisor has one, all of the departments at the City Hall have one, and them from one to three extensions. There are others in each county jall and at the City and County Hospital and the Alms- house and other public institutions. Au- ditor Wells is of the opinion that at least 50 per cent of these instruments could be digpensed with without hindrance to city affairs. The police telephones are not used over once a month each. if that, for the purpose of summoning officers to un- al duty. Most of the Supervisors are in iness and have telephones of their own ryway, and are as well able to pay for thém as is the city; and the same applies a Most of the city officials have not only telephones, but extensions as well. These extensions’ operate Instruments on their desks, and while they save overworked heads and employes a twenty or thirty foot walk to the other side of the office, or any one else as absolute necessities. As near as it can be figured, the city monthly telephone bill should not be over $400 at the outside, but it is not result every phone in_ the hall will be taken out on October 1. . ——————— 4 i | | | \ Judge and Mrs. John F.
