TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent, of 8ufferers Is Enormous
and There Seems but One
Remedy.
Prom several Investigations that
have been made by the National As
sociation for tho Study and Proven
tlon of Tuberculosis, tt Is estimated
that on an avorngo about fifteen per
cent, of the prison population of thr
country Is afflicted with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out of the 80,000 prison
era housed in tho penal Institution!
of the United States at any given
time, not less than 12,000 are Infected
with this disease If the Philippine
Islands and other Insular possessions
were taken Into consideration the
number wpuld be much larger. Some
of tho prisons of Pennsylvania, Kan
8os and Ohio show such shocking con
ditions with roferenco to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps.
Similar conditions could bo found in
almost every state, and in tho major
ity of cases the only suro romody Is
tho destruction of the old bulldlngi
and tho oroctlon of now ones.
Quaint Table Manners.
Jerome S. McWnde, thoDuluth mil
Uonalro, talked at a dinner about tbs
delights of a backwoods vacation.
"I go to a quaint bnckwoods village
every summer," ho said, "and number
less are tho quaint peoplo I meet
there.
"Old Boucher, for Instance, the Jan
Itor of the village church, is most
amusing with his quaint ways. I had
old Boucher to lunch ono day, and
the cold lobster was served with a
mayonnaise sauce. When my servant
offered this sauce to Boucher, the old
man stuck his knife in It, took up (.
little on tho blade, tasted it, then
shook hU head and said:
" 'Don't cbooso none.' "

WASHINGTON. Ignoranco on tho
part of amateur diplomats con
cerning tho proper form of diplomatic
correspondence nearly precipitated n
war scaro in two nations not long
Blnce. It was announced that tho em
peror of Germany hnd deliberately
affronted the United States govern

n addressing President Mndrlz of
Nicaragua, whom our government had
refused to recognize.
"Great and Good Friend," Is tho
way tho kaiser's letter to Madrlz was
commenced. This had slnlnter sig

ately the newspapers wcro filled with
stories that Germany had espoused tho
cause of Mndrlz; that tho Monroe
doctrine had been thrown down nnd
repudiated by the warllko kaiser;;
aUo the emperor had been nctlng
queerly of late and undoubtedly was
bent on mnklng nil tho trouble he
could for tho United States. After a
little Inquiry tho war scare faded

Bad Land Title
A REPORT made to congress by a
commission appointed to examine
land titles In tho District of Columbia
discloses that many lots of land occu
pied by modern business houses and
residences In tho national capital aro
Btlll owned by the government, not
withstanding the present tenants be
lieve they have a clear title to the
property.
This question of land titles in the
.national capital Is not a new one. Two
years ago congress created a commis
sion to study It The commission con
sisted of the attorney general, tho sec
retary of war, Senntor Scott of West
Virginia, Representative Bartholdt of
Missouri, and ono of tho district com
missioners. The report reveals a hor
rible land tangle, which the courts will
probably never bo nblo to straighten
out. The tanglo Is the outcome of tho
wild speculation In real estate that
took place for a good many years after
the capital was laid out.

Government's Census of Indian Wards
IN the present census the govern
ment has made a grotft effort to ob
tain, through special ngents, full and
nuthentlc data concerning the tribal
relations of the Indians, as a decade
hence when the fourteenth census will
be taken, it probably will be found
that those Indians who are now de
pendent wards of tho nation have be
come full-fledged citizens.
The Indian population of the United
States decreased in the decade from
1890 to 1900, from 273,607 to 260,760.
In 1880 the care of the Indians cost
the national government $5,206,109;

Washington, in tho early days, by a
very simple process. Tho territory
"not exceeding" ten miles square was
ceded to tho United ' Stntos govern
ment by Maryland und Virginia and
placed under the authority of three
commissioners, appointed by the presi
dent. They or any two of them wero
required, under tho direction of tho
president, to survey and by proper
metes and bounds define and limit a
district of territory, and tho torrltory
so defined was established as a perma
nent scat of the government of tho
United States. Power was given tho
commissioners to purchase or accept
land on tho eastern sldo of the Poto
mac, for the use of tho United States,
and the commissioners were further
required to provide suitable buildings
for the accommodation of congress,
the president and public officers of tho
government of tho United' States. It
wns to raise monoy to erect tho pub
lic buildings that the government
planned to sell Its land to private par
ties. No sooner had tho capital city been

their operations, It 1b asserted, much
land which belonged to tho govern

ownors.

the last of tho great elk herds la be

Barret Llttlefleld, who lives near
Sinter, has several hundred elk on his
grent rnnch. Every season he ships
many carcasses of elk to tho Denver
market, besides supplying zoological
gardens throughout the country. He
hnn found It profitable to raise elk for
tho mnrkot so profitable that he
abandoned tho cattle business years
ago nnd hasdevoted himself entirely
to the raising of venison. There nro
two other elk preserves In northwest
ern Colorado. J. B. Dawson, a Routt
county pioneer, has several hundred
head of elk on his rnnch near Hnyden.
In nearly every state In tho Union
the killing of deer Is forbidden ex
cepting In the fall and during a lim
ited period. If deer and elk nre to be
raised for the market the venison
farmer must be allowed to kill for the
market, whenever the demand Is there.
