The reports of the actions Of IL

The reports of the actions OF the
officials in Siberia are disgusting
and even repalsive to nine-teaths
OF the humans on the face OF the
earth. How men in their senses
can so foully deal out their brutal
feelings on the bare shoulders OF
helpless women and old men is q
mystery.
This same mode of punishment
has been employed for many years,
but was not known to the general
public until George KEENAN, came
out SO boldly in the columns of the
press.
Tss nations should combine at
once and wipe out this terrible blot,
which in time will develope into a
resking den OF criEe, gradually
extin. up It's inmates by their own
suicidal hands.

TO maaY PASSES.

In the last issue of the San Fran
cisco Music and Drama it has the
following about the free pass
abuse in the country. Portions o.
the article bear down on Carson
rather heavily: 'The demands foi
free admission made in some OF the
cities ard towns On this Coast are
Simply preposterous, and in some
instances are the cause Of serious
Engagements between the local
and the visiting managers. In
some places the city and county
officials are small enough to demand

pain of increasing the license fee il

tha fact that the railway companies
demand and receive exorbitant
rates for transportation the en-
ployees who handle to baggage sx-
Pect complimentary tickets, which
= shrewd manager, who has any
desire TO carry his scenery and
properties mere than a hundred
miles, finds il advisable to present
them with. Bsgsage-transier com
panies, bill posters, policemen and
constables sweep down upon the
unfortunate manager, and every
scheme for obtaining entertainments
without paying for it is worked to
the finest point. Furniture dealers,
Who demand an advertisement in
the printed programmes, also ex-
pect from two to half dozen seats
in payment for the use of shop-worn
and second hand furniture, and the
local papers consider it their right
to send their entire office, from
''the devil'' up. To the travelling
companies, who at the best do not
make large amouRts IN small towns,
the issue OF complimentaries in this
reckless manner mears q dead loss
OF considerable importance. Local
managers are naturally willing to
pay for personal favors with tickets;
but there is no reason why the
travelling manager should share in
payment for something which has
not benefited him in the least.

WILL HELP THE METHODIST
Senator Stanford, the twenty-mil-
lisnaire statesman from California,
announced the other day that he
would make a Subscription to the
Methodist university which is to be
established in Washington. Tn e
Senator would net say how muc d
he intended to give, but said he
would look in the question and after
others had subscribed to the pro-
iect he would make up his mind as
to the amount ne would contribute.
1t is understood that the Senator
will wait till after the flush OF cub
scriptions are in and he ascertains
how much the grand total will be
left in the deficit and then come to
the front with the whole amount
needed.

A freak in the way of handwriting
has Just come under notice. A little girl
of four years writes with her left hand,
and writes her words backward, as they
are reflected in mirror from ordinary
writing. Her friends have to read them
by means of looking glass. The child
was taught writing with sister, but
would do things in her own way, with
the result that she writes fuently in
this fantastic style.

PUTTING BABY TO SLEEP.
Having His stomach Well FILLED Is More
Than Half the Battle.

A writer in the Ladies Home Maya
zine has this to say about getting baby
to sleep: Let me tell you first of all to
see that he is well fed; half satisfied
stomach is a sure enemy to repose,
Have him warmly wrapped up, and be
sure the feet are warm. not hot or per-
spring, while The room should be rather
cool and darkened. Their brains and
ewes need darkness just as ours do, and
what refreshment do we get from sleep
with sunshine or lamplight shining into
our faces? Should you use your bed
room for your sitting and sewing-room,
be sure that the room is properly aired
before baby is put to bed for the nlght'
You can take him into another room,
close the register and open the windows
and doors for ten minutes or so. Inc
air will be thoroughly changed by that
time. You can then close the windows
md omen the register. and in short
time you can bring the little fellow
back into fresh yet warm ROOM II
This simple rule were oftener observed
il would save MANY a restless night.
Having done this the matter is com
paratively easy. If you nurse your baby
he will probably fall asleep in your
arms; if YOU feed him then lay MIN
gently down in his crib. During the
winter months have the pillow warmed
lust enough to take off that unpleasant
,hill of cold cotton. The chances are ne
will nestle his little cheek in it and go
ripht TO sleep.

RARE COINCIDENCE.
Richard Wagner and the Figure 13-Three
Elmer Ellsworths,

Elmer EllsWOrths.
In searching for ''Notes for the Curl
Gus" we have unearthed two that are
quite rare, one concerning Richard Wag-
ner, the composer, and his 13s; the
other series of conincident names. 1t
is wellknown fact that Wagner died
on the 18th of the month: he was born
in 1913; it takes 13 letters to spell Rich
ard Wagner; his name and the sum of
the figures in 1918 equals 13; he COM
posed Is works and always declared that
he set his head on his after career on
the 18th of the month. "Tannhauser"
was completed on April ID, 1915: it was
first performed in Paris March 13, 1861
He left Bayreuth September ID, 1861.
September is the ninth month; write
9-l3 and add the three figures together,
thus 9-1-3, and you have Is.
The other coincidence concerns the
name of E. E. Reynolds. During April.
1889, f. E. Reynolds, the Utica IN.
" music dealer, was visited by E. E.
Reynolds, of New Haven. Each &C
knowledged that his name was Elmer
Ellsworth and that he was named for
Ellsworth of Zouave fame. Each was
born the same week. The publication
of the facts brought letter from Rev.
E. E. Reynolds, of Ludlow, VT, named
the same and born the same week as the
others.-St. Louis Republic.

PAY OF LEGISLATORS.
What the Statesmen of Various Nations
Receive for Their Services.

what the statesmen OF various NATIONS
Receive for Their Services.
Some curious statistics have just been
published concerning the salaries given
the members of Parliament in the vari-
Gus nations. To begin with, in the
United States of America the members
of both branches of Congress receive the
same amount of pay-namely, s., 200 per
annum. In France it is the same-mem-
bers of each house receiving the same
81 per day. In Belgium each member
of the Chamber of Representatives gets
eli a month. In Denmark the mem
bers of the Landsthing each receive
about l5s. day. In Portugal the Peers
and Commons are paid the same sum,
which is about e67 year. In Sweden
the members of the Diet receive 500 for
. session of four months, but they have
to pay fine of les. for every DAYS abb
senee. In Switzerland the members in
the National Council get los. per diem
and the Council of State, the lower
House, IS.
In Norway the members of the Stor-
thing receive las. per day during the
session, which usually lasts about six
weeks, but which has been extended to
that many months. In Italy the Sem
ators and Deputies are not paid at all.
but they are allowed travelling expenses
and certain other privileges. In Spain
the members of the Cortes are also I'M
paid for their services, but enjoy many
advantages and immunities- In Greece
the Senators get $40 per month and the
Deputies $40. In Germany both houses
receive about los. per day. In Austria
the pay is the same as in France, 81
day.
England is the only country where
members of Parliament are not only I'M
paid, but have no rights or privileges
whatever.-St. Louis Republic.

MODEST DR.. PARR.
The Extraordinary self-Conceit of an En-
glish Author.

Authors are not, as a rule, excessively
modest when the merits of their own
works are concerned; but for pure, un-
adulterated conceit DIR. Samuel Parr,
who was born January Is, 1747, has no
equal in history. He was learned man,
and wrote some things which gained for
him considerable fame, and he appre-
ciated the fact only too well. is said
that those passages in his letters which
refer to himself in terms of high praise
would, if collected, form a good-sized
book. In 11SS Parr and Rev Henry
Homer published new edition of Bel
lendenus de Statu" in three volumes,
dedicated respec lively to Burke. Lord
North and Fox The Latin preface was
written by Parr. who in this connection
addressed the following extraordinary
letter to Mr. Homer: "What will you
say, or, rather, what shall say myself
of myself? 1t is now ten o'clock at

inence to which the cowardice of his
hearers and the credulity of the public
had most weakly exalted the impostor
and father of impostors. Read it, dear
Harry; read it, say aloud; read itagain
and again. and when your tongue has
turned its edge from me to the father OF
Mr.. Pitt: when your ears Jingle and
ring with my sonorous periods; when
your heart glows and beats with the food
and triumphant remembrance OF Ed

will forgive me: you will love me; you
will congratulate me, and readily will
