An Imprisoned Genius.

Alberto Topaz, who was taken to Yuma
recently to serve two years. term for
burglary, gave his personal effects to his
friends about the Jail.
Deputy Barry was presented with fac
smile of the Episcopal church made out of
pasteboard. Topaz could see the church
from one of the jail windows and repro
duced it almost perfectly. He borrowed a
knife from Deputy Sheridan. with which
he cut up the pastebOard, and then made
paste with flour with which to stick the
pieces together. 1t is piece of workman
ship to be proud Of The greatest prOduc-
ton of Topaz while confined in Jail here is
a reproduction of the magnificent Mer-
chants Exchange building in Guadalaraja.
The entire affair is constructed of paper.
On the inside Of the building are the stair
ways, ETC.. each perfect in its construction.
The prisoner must be possessed of men,
DRY much stronger than most men are, to
remember every detail of that large struct-
ure for number of years.
However much genius the man possessed
he has made bad use of it. and now goes
down to Yuma to put in two years of his
life that should have been improved as his
maker intended. 1t really seems sad to
have the prison doors closed upon one who
might have been man among men,

CO.OperatiOn.

Slavery belonged to the agricultural phase
of civilization. The wage system, mis-.
named free labor, has belonged to the age
of compettion-the age of strife and brutal
conflict between man and man in the mar
ket places of the world. The age Of COM
petition is destined to pass like the other
ages that have preceded it. Even now it
wanes and staggers away! The age of hui
manity is to succeed the era of speculative,
contention among the nations. The system
of wage hire cannot endure the light and
actinism Of an age OF humanity. That age
must of necessity recognize the right of all
producers in all the products of labor.
The animosity of capital and labor de-
ponds for it's force upon the fact of cOmpe.

in the false dictum of political economy,
that labor is commodity to be bought and

labor of men. Each shall have equal claims
upon all products. all values. all the objects

is, equal claims prOpOrtiOnate to the parts
which labor and capital have contributed.

Just What a ssCOrker,, Is.

The Boston Globe in recent issue ser
ously quotes Mr.. Eugene Fields definition
of the word ''cOrker." as published in his
special corner of the Chicago News Record.
Mr.. Field says the word ''corker" is much
abused one, for the reason that its real
meaning is unknown to the vast majority
of those who use the word. 1t is derived
from the French word ''corquer." and that
comes from the Latin ''cOrcare." which in
turn was born of the Greek word ''korka. :"
signifying incompatible one." Through
out the Homerian epics the goddess whom
we call Venus is referred to as Venus the
corker. and the epithet as originally applied
seemed to imply not only natural and in
herent qualities, but also shining and dis
tinguished ccomplishments- and
intellectual beauty, attractions. charms,
gifts and arts.

Reasons Why the Worlds Fair Should
Remain Open Oh Sunday.


This is question on which there is
great difference of opinion. There are
many reasons why the Worlds Fair should
remain open. and only one why it should
be closed. The latter reason being that it
would desecrate the Sabbath. We'will set
the religious views of the question on one
side by leaving it to the conscience of the
individual. If he thinks it wrong to attend
the fair on Sunday let him stay away
and by going to church and dropping dol
lar IN the contribution box do some good
instead of growing at the wickedness of his
fellOwmen.
There will be in Chicago during the
Worlds Fair people from all parts of the
world; people of all forms of religion
Protestants. Catholics. Heather, Jews,
MOhammedans. Intdels and Freethinkers.
There will be rich men with time and
money unlimited at their disposal; to them
it will not matter whether it be open or
closed; they can attend on any or every day.
Let them 60 to church and give literally
towards the support of some hospital or for
the benefit of the poor; but they are more
likely to attend ball game or race meet
ing-unless Chicago is strangely altered.
Sunday used to be the best day for the
Saloons the disorderIy houses. the theaters,
the music halls, the dime museums, the
ball games the beer gardens-all of which
were open to entice the workingman from
his home and family. Now, which would
be best for those who have to work every
day in the week to live, and to whom the
loss of day means so much less in their
weeks pay or perhaps the loss of their
place-which, l ask, would be best for the
wOrkingman to take his wife and family to
the fair on Sunday or to 60 himself to ball
game or theater? We must presume that
his sons and daughters also work during the
week, and the loss of their combined wages
for day means a serious thing to them.
The things he would see at the fair would
show him the bOuntiful and beauteOus ways
of nature, the gems of art. the wonders of
science. and the great inventions and i'm
prOvements in machinery-all of which
would help him to think more of himself,
his fellOwman and his Maker. He would
go home with feeling that he lived in a
wonderful and beautiful world and that
what he had seen was not alone the work
OF man. but that he was guided and in
structed by some higher power, that he had
something to live and work for beyond a
mere existence here below. and that he had
received sermon at the Worlds Fair that
had done him more good than all the rev.
erend ministers and priests in Chicago CON-
bined could have done for him.
So. for the benefit that it will be to those
employed during the week. say let the
Worlds Fair remain open on Sunday-and
close the saloons If you like. G. B.

The Sizes of Books.

The thing that mSleads people as to the
size of books as set down in lists of cata
lOgues, is that the smaller the book really
is. the larger the number that designates it,
A book described as svo is smaller than one
spoken of 4to. These figures denote the
number of times the sheet of printing paper
is folded into book leaves. and not at all any
real measurement of the book. An SvO or
octave. is book made up of sheets that
are folded into eight leaves; a 4tO. or
quartO. is one that has its sheets folded
into four leaves. 1t would readily be seen
that the latter would be larger than the
fOrmer--if the sheets were of the same size
to begin with. But the fact is that these
descriptions are only approximate. for
books to day are made in every variety of
dimension. One rarely finds folio now ex
cept in editions de luxe or aliases. The
QuartO is not common. as it usually makes
page the size of an unabridged dictionary
too large to be handled easily. The Oc
tavO is bigger than most books, as it usually
measures about 10 by Z inches. The 12mO
is a common size. measuring about by 6
inches, or little less, according to the size
OF the unfOlded sheet. The 16mO book is.
as generally put out. about by 8 d inches;
the 1Smo trifie smaller, by inches.
Most of the publishers nowadays make
their books of proportions to suit them
selves. with little reference to the old scale
OF measurements WattersOn.

A Convict on the Tramp.

Many years ago in one of the cantOns of

death. and as the said canton had no hang
man of it's own the authorities commune
Gated with the executoner of the adjoining
State and asked him how much he charged.
The price demanded for the execution of
the culprit was two hundred florins, which
the magistrates considered too high, and
offered to pay him two hundred francs in
stead. This offer was fatty refused by the
hangman. A sitting of the magistrates was
held at which the following resolution was
passed: 1--WE will give the convict one hum
dred francs and set him at liberty so that
he may go and get hanged where he likes"
