PREGCOTT, Arl., Oct. lB.-The congres
sional party divided today. Tawney and
several others went to the Crown King
mines and the rest made trips In carriages
through the mountains to the granite quar
ries and Whipple barracks. The post ts
being greatly enlarged and the work was
'inspected by the visitors. The congressmen
In the party today expressed themselves In
favor of statehood for Arlsona.
Congressman Adams of Wisconsin said:
"I voted once for jointure because I knew
no better. I know better now. I am Arl
cona's captive and surrender completely. I
am against jointure."
Representative Qoebel of Ohio said: "Ari
sona's schools alone should entitle It to be
come a state, if nothing more; but It has a
great deal more. It deserves statehood now
and until It gets It It will find a warm advo
cate and friend In me."
Repreaentatlve Miner of Wisconsin said:
"We are all with Arlsona and If the east
erns could only visit this state they would
change their minds. , It would be a crime to
link Arlsona to New Mexico, although the
latter Is a great territory also. Both are
large enough."
Representative Tawney of Minnesota
said: "Were the members of congress to
come here and see I ddubt if four-fifths
who have voted for jointure would do so
after the visit. I know now the conditions
and my next vote will meet with Arizona's
approval."
Representative Madden of Chicago said:
"The day will come when Arlsona will
get single statehood. If I can help I wilt.
I am astonished at the wonders of the
territory,' agricultural Interests, farming
civilisation and eduoatlonal facilities. No
better schools or higher state of civilisa
tion exists In the entire country."
Representative Davis of Minnesota said;
"If Senator Beveridge's report on Arlsona
was' true, the territory has changed won
derfully In a short time. I am for the west
and will always vote with the west, and I
do not, want to see any more such big
states, as Texas. I believe Arlsona is now
(It to become a state."
Representative Maynard of Virginia (the
only democrat In the party) said:
"If it were not for family ties, home as
sociations , and native love for dear old
Virginia, I would sell' my ticket and stay
In Arlsona, and if I ever move It will be
to this territory which will soon be a
state." .
Representative Marshall of South Da
kota said:
"I believe H a wrong to both territories
to even breathe the Idea of jointure. 1
voted for It once, but I have revised my
Ideas and I am going home and preach
the gospel of rich and great Arlsona to
my colleagues.. No higher state of civilisa

that a committer of from 6,000 to 30,000

A clergyman may be eloquent, may use

Ihf simple faith that glow within him
carries quick conyiction with it. Such a

"I drank coffee all my life until It about
killed me, when I concluded to try Pos

the terrible misery I suffered from coffee.
"When I drank coffee I bloated up so
that I could not breathe at times; my
nerves were so shaky that I could not hold
myself still.
"But, thsnks to Postum, I am well now

"I was very much disgusted with It 'the

ROME, Oct. 15. In connection with the
alleged revelations with the events which
preceded the resignation of the French
minister, M. Delcasse, the following semi
official communication has been Issued
hare:
"The action taken by Italy at Paris,
London and Berlin In connection with the
Moroccan affair was absolutely friendly
and conciliatory and in the Interests of
peace. The action was not fruitless, as
owing to It France accepted the conference
proposed by Germany, which the former
originally opposed, while Italy was able
to Induce Germany to agree to the funda
mental conditions claimed to be discussed
by the conference. Foreign Minister Tlt
tonl communicated this to M. Barrere, the
French ambassador to Italy, and nothing
else."
It la also understood that the Italian
government will continue to use Its Influ
ence at Paris and Berlin for an under
standing between France and Germany.
The relations between Italy and France
continue to be most friendly, the French
government having emphatically denied a
phrase attributed to Premier Rouvler,
which was considered disrespectful towards
Italy. Indeed, as one evidence of these
good relations. France will send a naval
,quadron to Genoa t0 greet King Victor

Perdleavls on Morocco Situation.
WASHINGTON, Oct 15.-Ion Perdlcarls,
the American cltisen who, while residing
at Tangier, Morocco, was captured by
Ralsuli about a year and a half ago and
whose case was the subject of vigorous
representations by this government to the
sultan of Morocco, has taken an apartment
in Washington for the winter. Mr. Perdl
carls Is accompanied by his wife. His de
cision to remain in this country fdr some
time is due to the unsettled conditions in
Morocco and also because of the contro
versy between France and Germany over
their respective Interests there. In discus
sing the case there Mr. Perdlcarls declared
that the international situation regarding
Morocco Is not appreciated generally In the
United States, and that it ts an effort on
the part of France to gain a dominant
political position In Morocco.
PUDD'NHEAD WILSON ALL RIGHT
Mark Twain's .Genial Philosopher
Gives Sherlock Holmes an
Idea.
When Mark Twain Introduced to the
world that genial philosopher, "Pudd'nhead
Wilson," in 1893, the world laughed Im
mensely at many theories held by the de
lightful old fellow. None of these theories
created quite as much indulgent Interest,
however, as Pudd'nhead'e system of finger
print identification, upon which the whole
story revolves. It was considered very In
genious and original, although, of course,
not strictly new at that time.
Only twelve years later this system of
finger print Identification had been adopted
by the prison officials of nearly all great
nations as the Infallible' distinguishing
mark of one Individual among millions. In
the most recent report of R. W. Mc
Claughry, warden of the federal prison at
Leavenworth, Kan., the announcement Is
made that this system has not only been
adopted in that Institution as supplementing
the famous Bertlllon system of France, but
since a year ago the record clerk of the
Leavenworth "irlson has made and filed
finger prints of 1,613 prisoners, and has re
celved from other penal Institutions and
police departments tn this country 1,401 sets
of finger prints.
It ts worthy of note that It was Warden
McClaughry who introduced the Bertlllon
system Into this country, he having sent
his eon to Paris to study under the dis
coverer of that mode of Identification. It
was also Warden McClaughry who became
Interested In the finger print system which
was demonstrated at the World's fair In
St Louis by John Kenneth Ferrler of the
Scotland Tard detective force of London.
In his report Warden McClaughry says in
reference to this subject: s
"The report of the record clerk explains
the Introduction into our identification sys
tem of the method now in use in England,
and which was Introduced Into America
last year at the WorM's fair, called the
finger print system. It Is believed that this
system, in the years to come; will prove ex
ceedingly effectual In identifying criminals
and thereby lessening the Inducements to
attempt escape. What Is known as the Ber
tlllon system of Identification has been In
vogue at this Institution for several years,
and It will be noted that no escape has oc
curred during the past three years. Every
appliance that can be used to render more
certain the recovery of the fugitive Is sure
to lessen the tendency to attempt escape
and la therefore valuable economically for
the government, because It Is always ex
pensive to follow and apprehend escaped
prisoners."
The record clerk explains In his special
report that as a rule be takes five sets of
finger prints from each prisoner entering
the Institution. One sheet Is filed with the
prisoner's commitment papers in a fire
proof vault; another sheet Is filed In the
classified file of the finger print system of
identification for identification purposes
only,- and the remaining three sheets are
kept on tile In a fireproof vault to be used
In apprehending escaped prisoners or to be
used aa evidence In courts. Thus we see
the practical adoption of a theory con
ceived In some obscure philosophical fancy
and brought Into public notice through the
romancer's pen. Kansas City Journal.

SQUIRREL PEST IN INDIANA
Overrun For eat and Marshes Once
Full of Deer and
Turkey,
The fish and game stores of Indianapolis
are advertising "fresh killed squirrels."
Squirrel pie Is ene of the best dishes
known to gourmands, and the squirrel sea
son Is now open, fnder the present game
law of Indiana they are protected frpm
January 1 to August 1. and may be killed
from August t to January 1. Hunters
say they are more plentiful than usual
this year, and quite a good many reach
the local market. It requires a license to
kill them, evep In Ihe open season. Squir
rel hunting has peculiar charms, and one
who Is fond of roaming through the forests
willingly pay the fee.
Squirrels were never protected In the
state until the passage of the'present law,
In 1906. It took tiie state a long time to
come to the point of protecting the fish
In Its rivers or the wild game In Its woods.
At first and for many years they were
killed' by any. and every means, without
let or hindrance., Tha forests and fields
were full of game and the rivers teemed
With fish, and fof a long time no attempt
was made to protect them from extermina
tion. When the protective legislation
finally began It wae a little like locking
the stable door after the horse was stolen.
For more than fifty years after Indiana
waa first settled the slaughter of wild
animals went on without any restriction.
As to some of thorn It was encouraged by
offer of bounties for their scalps. The
slaughter of game-animals and birds wis
In no way interfered with.. vDeer used to
be -shot down and allowed te rot where
they fell. Wild turkeys were trapped for
fun.
There was some excuse for killing squir
rels, for they were a pest In early tlraea.
being great thieves of seed corn and green
corn. More than a docen different varie
ties were Indigenous to the United States,
but the best known was the common gray
or migratory squirrel. It was called mi
gratory on account of the long journeys
it sometimes made. Occasionally, for rea-1
sons or their own, probably In search of
food, these Squirrels used to migrate from
one part ot the country ft another In great
numbers. Once started on one of these
migrations, neither mountains nor rivers
could stop tham. and they devoured every
thing eatable that came tn their way.
Audubon describes one which be wit
nessed: "It was in 181. when we were de
scending the Ohio river In a flatboat
chiefly with the intention of seeking for
birds then unknown to us. About 100
miles below Cincinnati, as we were float
ing down the stream, we observed a large
number of squirrels swimming across the
river, and we continued to see them at
various places until we had nearly reached
Smitnland, a town about 100 miles above
Uie mouth of the Ohio. At times they
were strewn, as It were, over the surface
of the water, and some of them, being
fatigued, sought a few moments' rest on
our long steering oar, which hung into
the water In a slating direction over the
stern of our boat . The boys along the
shores and In hoate were killing the squlr'
rela In great numbers, although most of
them got across.': Indianapolis News.
