How 20 Master a Book.

In reading a book so as to retain a
knowledge of its conte1 IS, we should
first reduce the memory problem to its
lowest terms-we should minimize as
much as possible the WORK TO be done,
by discarding all that is familiar, all
that we already know. To this end we
should make a careful abstract of what
is new TO us in each chapter as we pro-
ceed, using as few words Us possible,
and those chosen from the text. Max
ing a clear abstract of book does
more good than half a dozen ordinary
perusals, as il quickens the intellec-
tual energies by arousing and holding
the attention. In reviewing the sub
ject, refer to your abstract, not to the
book. When you become expert in
making abstracts, you may gradually
dispense with written ones, as you
find your memory growing stronger.
As to the method of memorizing
these abstracts, the best way to proceed
is as follows: You first associate or
connect the title of the book with the
title of the first chapter; then the title
of the chapters to each other; and then
in each chapter the leading idea or
proposition to the chapter; the second
leading idea to the first; facts and illus
trations to the principles to which they
belong; and so ON, to the end of the
book. The number of ideas that should
be selected from each chapter will de-
pend on the nature Of the subject, the
degree of sequence or relationship be-
tween the parts, and the completeness
with which il is desired TO be remem-
bered. When you have finished the
whole book, and wish to test your
knowledge of its contents. turn to the
index and see whether you can give a
clear account of all the subjects or
facts referred to therein c. Moffett
in The Writer.

The Edmunson Gang.

JEFF Edmunson, a notorious thief,
who /. operated in Montana several
years ago as a road agent, horse and
cattle thief. was brought to Helena
yesterday, says the Independent, and
placed in the county jail by detective
Jim Comfy Of the Montana Stockgrow-
ers' association. Edmunson Is under
indictment for cattle stealing iu
Meagher county, aud is wanted in sew
eral other counties, though 1t is not
known whether be 10 under indite-
ment elsewhere. All old timers are
familiar with the Edmnnson gang.
Two Of the brothers were sent to the
penitentiary where one is serving out
his sentence, the other was psrdoned
by Governor Lesl e. Con Murphy,
one Of the gang, was lynched after
having escsp' d from the Lewis and
Clarke county Jail.
When the Edmundsons were SEN
tsnoed to the penitentiary il was
known to the other road agents Of
whom JEFF was the supposed leader
that they would be taken to Deer
Lodge by stage coach and an attack
was made on the coach neGr Boulder
by the desperate men. They were
one day too early as the prisoners had
been left behind to follow the next
day. Judge Wade and other psssen-
gers were made to throw up their
hands, but no further indignities were
offered to them. The men had their
faces concealed by masks and were
not recognized. The prisoners were
taken to prison next day under
heavy escort, the authorities having
been informed Of the attack on the
stage.
JEFF shortly afterwards disappeared
from the territory and the once for
midable gang disbsnded and were
heard OF no more. Not long since
Mr.. Conley learned that jeff was on a
ranch near Green River, Wyo., and st
once made preparations to secure his
arrest, which was done without much
trouble, the arrest having been made
by Sheriff Ward, Of Evanston. A
reguisition was secured from Governor
Leslie, honored by the governor Of
Wyoming with the result that the
bold road agent is behind the bars. He
will be taken to Meagher county to
answer the charge of cattle stealing.
Had he been caugh. live years ago JEFF
would have swung.

THE CULTURE OF MURDER.
How Impulsive Organisms Are Prepared
to Do Dark Deeds.

No fact is more patent to science
than the direct effect of influences
exerted through the medium of the
senses upon the brain-that particular
part of the organism whose function
ing we call mind" Darwin, Ruskin
and all the great students of develop
ment have labored to bring this fact
within the cognizance Of the general
thinking public. That they have
failed is only too painfully evidenced
by the persistence and surprising in
genuity of the practice of cultiyating
homicidal propensities, and collater,
ally murder, by refined use OF the
art of mural decoration.
While we empower the police to put
down with strong hand the exhibi.
ton in shop windows, and the censor
of stage plays and spectacles TO inter
dict the parade in theatres OF pictures
and scenes OF an immoral" character,
because il is recognized that these have
tendency to corrupt the mind OF
youth-and age too-nothing what
ever is done TO restrain the daily in
creasing evil of pictorial placards dis
PLAYED ON every boarding, and Of
highly wrought scenes produced at
nearly all the theatres, which not only
direct the thoughts, but actively stir
the passions of the people in such way
as 10 familiarize the average mind

break down that protective sense Of
horror which nature has given us,
with the express purpose, doubtless, Of
opposing an obstacle 10 the evil infu.
ence of the exomplihcation of homi-
eide. II cannot be disguised that even
the most sensitive nature is 20 some
extent brtalized by the display of
these pictures.
We are none of us as shocked at the
spectacle of a knife driven into the
chest Of q young woman, and do not
recoil as violently from the idea Of
this form Of murder, as before the lis.
play on all sides of an elaborate,
nearly life size picture of the deed.
Nor do two men graphing together
and stabbing each other, or one man
shooting another with revolver,
strike us as presenting spectacles OF
such hideous enormity as they would
have done had we not been familiar
lied with these scenes by impressive
placards staring us in the face at every
turn. IL does seem strange- passing

Reduced Postage.

The third assistant postmaster gen
eral, in his annual report on the busi-
ness of the postoflice department.
makes the suggestion that if one cent
postage should be adopted there would
be only two classes of mail matter.
letters Of the matter now included in
the third and fourth classes. that is,
general printed matter and merchan-
disc, being included in one class at the
rate of | cent for two ounces, and
newspapers and periodicals. sent from
offices of publication in another at the
rate Of | cent per pound as at present.
The proposition TO reduce the letter
rate from cents for one ounce TO
cent for two ounces and make it
the same as the rate for a casual news
paper or magazine or q book seems
rather startling but in point of fact it
would not be so greatly different in
effect from a mere reduction 10 1 cent
for the weight now allowed. The
great bulk Of the letters written would
not be increased in length or in weight,
and there would be a great gain in
simplicity in having no distinction in
the rates for matter mailed in the usual
way, whether sealed or unsealed or
containing writing or no writing. A
source Of petty fraud and evasion and
equally petty search for il would be
avoided. The only serious question
relates to the effect on the revenues
and expenses of the postal service,
which ought substantially to pay for
itself. This aspect of the suggestion
calls for careful consideration.-New

Nevada and the Eclipse.

The astronomers who visit Nevada
for the purpose Of observing the total
eclipse of the sun, next January, will
occupy the most favorable position TO
be found in the United States They
will be in the center Of the path of
totality, and on the topof Winnemucca
mountain they viii stand 5000 feet
above the level of the sea. This alti-
tude, however, is not the great advant-
age to be derived from the locality.
That which will most aid the astrouo-
mers is the dry atmosphere Of tho
Great Basin region-an atmosphere
almost destitute of humidity. With
-ood instruments better results will be-
obtained by the observers stationed ON
Ninnemucca than by any other party
in America.

after the shooting. The man who did
