. A prisoner has just been released
from Jail because he sang well. Only
a little, while ago a convict was par
doned because he wrote poetry. This
sort of thing can be prolonged Indefin
itely, the Cleveland Plalndealer re
marks. Convict Bill Drydock will be
pardoned next month because he Is a
fine cartoonist. With a bit of plum
bago and a whitewashed wall Bill
drew a striking likeness of Banker
Swoop, who is his seatmate In the
prison dining room. Convict Joe
Skeetch, the notorious Brooklyn thug,
has developed rrae talent as a carver.
A rolling pin he whittled out of a bed
leg for the warden's wife shows a high
degree of art craft skill. Active meas
ures are being taken to interest the
governor In Joe's behalf. .Convict
Mulky Sludge, the kidnapper, has
made a monkey wrench out of a bit
of iron hoop from a water pall and two
yards of wire from a broom. The fact
that he tried to brain Guard Tomklns
with this ingenious tool will not weak
en a determined effort to secure the
governor's recognition of Mulky's re
markable mechanical skill. Convict
Jerry Twiggs, who poisoned the ice
cream at the Methodist church picnic
in Sklnkle's woods In the Buburbs of
Weehawken last May, has developed
a keen interest in line-engraving. En
tirely unaided, his only tools being a
shoemaker's awl and a bit of sandpa
per, he made a plate for a 2 bank bill
which was so well done that he had
no trouble in selling it to a visitor for
two pounds of cut plug, a box of
knockout drops, three files and a bot
tle of sulphuric acid. Convict Twlgg's
birthday comes next Monday, and his
leading birthday gift will be an uncon
ditional pardon.
REASON FOR CHURCH EXODUS
When Pastor Hears Why Men Are
Leaving, He Stops Sermon
and Goes Also.
More than a hundred years ago,
when the stone steps of the old house
were In front of the meeting house in
the village and worshipful feet went
up them and along the uncarpeted
aisles to the stralghtbacked pews,
each with a wooden door held shut
with a wooden button one Sunday
morning after the "long prayer," while
the clergyman was In the midst of his
discourse, one of the members of the
congregation was seen to rise from his
pew and tip-toe quietly out of the
church. Soon a neighbor followed and
then another and another, slowly and
with reverent regard for the sanctity
of the place they were bo unwontedly
leaving during the sermon. The min
ister, noticing this, says Richard
WIghtman in the Metropolitan, stop
ped in the midst of his discourse and
said: "May I be permitted to inquire
the reason for this exodus?" At this
one of the few remaining men stood
up In his pew and answered thus:
"Since the service began word has
been sent us that a large school of
shad has been pocketed in the Oyster
. river. The tide has gone out and the
meadows are covered with live fish.
Thousands of them are flopping there
In the sun, and we have thought best,
sir, to Improve the opportunity and go
down there and secure winter food for
our families." Then he sat down, and
after a moment's pause the clergyman
gathered up his manuscript and said:
"I think that is a very good idea. 1
will dismiss the congregation and gc
and get some myself."
Charity Covers, Etc.
Mrs. George McFadden, the beautl
ful Fhlladelphlan who made the Span
ish dance of "The Roses" the feature:
of the Newport season, said at a din
ner, in answer to a compliment on
her success with this waltz:
"Yes, I had better luck than a friend
of mine in Philadelphia. My friend
gave a charity concert in the ballroom
of her country house, and the piece
de reslsatnce of the concert was the
Spanish ' dance, performed by six
young bachelors and debutantes.
"At the entertainment's end my
friend shook bands with a group of
little old women from one of the
homes to be benefited.
" 'And how did you like our Spanish
dance?" she asked.
"The old women looked at one an
other in some embarrassment, and
finally In a soothing voice one replied:
"'Well, ma'am, least said soonest
mended, and besides, the object was
so deservlnV"
Looking Ahead.
"So you want women to vote?"
"I have declared myself to that
effect," ald the keen politician.
"And I suppose you want to see a
woman elected to the office you now
hold!"
"No. After they have held a few
spirited conventions I don't think any
of them will have enough personal
popularity among the members to se
cure even an indorsement But there's
no reason why they shouldn't all vote
for me as their champion."

Nebraska Is the state of lost tow us.
Since the time of Its settlement, sixty
years ugo, more than 300 of them have
disappeared.
Some went iuto the maw of the

the victims of hard luck of one klud

Perhaps the history of Archer Is as
Interesting as that of uny of them

first territorial legislature, which met
lu 18."i5, made Archer the seat of Rich

tlers was a party of French. They
nninied Indian squaws and reared nu
merous families.

Curiously enough it was fills fact
that wiped Archer off Jhe map. When
the government put Into effect tne
reservation method of dealing with
the Indians It found Itself confronted
with the problem arislug out of the
nroKoiu-B of so many French half

breeds. As a solution or it tue com
mlsslouers decided to set aside a spe

When the survey was made It was
found that the town of Archer was
Included In the reservation. The army
post was abandoned, the capital wns
located elsewhere, the railroads pass-
ed it by. it dwindled into a mere ham-
let. and the university closed Its doors.
Its prosperity lasted seven years, and.
although Archer men sought to Have
the government change Its lines, they
were unsuccessful, and wltuin a rew

A herd of caribou probably number

The scene Is described as the most

any other ever viewed by a white

RED CROSS STAFF INSTRUCTS
Miners Taught to Aid Comrade Oxy

Poiionou Gase In Exploeion, at
Five Miner Are Killed Out of Eah
Thousand Annually. ,
A life saving service for the rescue
of miners in time of disaster Is being
Inaugurated by the L'ulted States
bureau of mines. Six specially con
structed cars, fully manned by a corps
of miners trained In rescue work and
equipped with the latest rescue appara
tus find first aid to the Injured appli
ances, arc being located In the midst
of the great coal districts in different
rnrts of the country. These cars will
Lo ready at n moment's- notice to pro
ceed to the scene of a disaster, where
the rescue corps, lu co-operation with
the state mining olllclals. will do every
thing possible to save entombed min
ers. This Is the first Important step tnken
by the new bureau of inlues In Its
efforts to reduce the, appalling loss of
life lu American coal mines.
Death Total Large.
During the year 1000 there were
2,412 miners killed In the coal mines
and 7,0I Injured. In the coal and In
tho metal mines It Is estimated that
8.000 men were killed and 10.0(H) were
lujuml in 10O!. For every l.fXH) men
employed from three to five men are
killed each year In the mines of the
United Stales, lu foreign countries
from one to two are killed lu each
1,000 employed. In those European
countries where the deaths are least
per 1,000 men employed rescuo n-
paratus has been in use for some time,
and It Is with tho hope thnt European
conditions can be approached that the
rescuo apparatus Is being Introduced
here.
The saving of human life will be
the emergency feature of a general
campaign of educational work nniong
the miners, who will not only be taught
the use of tho rescue apparatus, but
also the proper way to take enre of
nn Injured miner.
A mining engineer and a surgeon of
tho American Red Cross will accom
pany each car and deliver Illustrated
lectures on the use of explosives, elec
trical equipment, fire prevention, sanl
taMon and first aid surgical treatment.
These lectures will be given lu the
enrs wherever a suitable place cannot
le procured. Tho cars will remain long
enough at each place so that miners
may go through the training In rescue
work, which will bo lu charge of the
foreman of the car, a practical miner.
Every effort will be made to encourage
the miners to form rescue corps at the
mines where they are and to have the
operators equip them with rescue ap
paratus. The cars will each contain eight so
called oxygen helmets, o supply of
oxygon In tanks, one dozen safety
lamps, one field telephone with 2.000
feet of wire, resuscitating outfits and
a small outfit for use In demonstratic
and actual practice of equipment r
lutlug to the first aid to the Injured la
connection with mine accidents.
Demonstration Given Miner.
One end of the cars Is fitted up ns an
air tight room to be used In training
the men In the use of the so cnlled
oxygeu helmets.. This room will be
fljled with pox Inu.s. fumes,, and the
Dilners, Wen ling Tielinel s, vTIU remain
tnilde for two hours In an atmosphere
that would kill without the helmets.
These are the helmets that permit one
to enter n mine Immediately following
an explosion, while It Is still filled with
poisonous gases, and breathe artifi
cially.
