We really were not sincere in trying
to make it appear that the taxpayers
would lsse by Mr.. Muller's action, as we
knew on the contrary it would save

CALIFORNIA .hERMIIS.
Men Passing Their Lives I'm Idle Solitude
on the Mountain Tops.

Men Passing Their Lives In Idle S01itud0
on the Mountain Tops.
Is man essentially social animaE The
scientists say 80. But in the mountains
of California there are almost enough
men who for years have led life of ut
ter solitude to disprove the generaliza-
ton. These mountain hermits can be
found scattered through the Sierras and
the coast range from one end of the state
to the other. They are particularly nu-
merous through this region, centering
about the Yosemite valley and extend
ing far back into the high Sierras. Some
of them were once guides in the valley,
Others have been miners, and some
again seem to have taken up the life of
solitude simply because they like it.
To this class belongs old P. R. Gibson
-"Old Glib" as he is generally called
who lives on a mountain ranch. He is
seventy-five years old, but is possessed of
as much physical strength and endurance
as the average man of half his age. He
came thirty years ago from Tennessee,
where he left a wife and large family
of children. One of his sons came to see
him recently and tried to induce him to
visit his former home, but ''Old Glib"
steadfastly refused to leave his little
ranch and solitary cabin. He has never
seen a railroad, and the stage drivers
from the nearest station try their utmost
to persuade him to 60 to town and at
least look at train of cars. But his in
variable answer is: do you think I'm
going down there to be bowed up by
one of them there blamed engines? Not
much!'
Nearly all the men who live this life
of solitude very long get a bit queer in
the head, and ''Old Glib is no exception
to the rule. He has a rigmarole descrip-
ton of himself which declares that he is
1.-THE best man in the United States or
adjoining territories, either directly or
indirectly, financially, commercially, &C.
Realistically or unchurchified. The old
man is hard worker, and when he is
not busy on his ranch he is working
theoretically making "shakes'-that is,
clapboards split and sawed by hand from
big pine trees.
Old man Lambert, who has a cabin in
the high Sierras some thirty miles back
OF the Yosemite, is another of the noun
tain hermits. He has neither ranch nor
mining claim, but lives by what he
shoots and by an occasional few dollars
earned from camping parties. He has
lived alone in that same spot for years
and years, and will in all likelihood stay
there until he dies. There are months
at a time that he does not see another
human being. A party of campers one
summer found him making huge stone
wall that seemed to have no purpose
whatever. In surprise they asked him
what he was piling up those stones for.
Why" he said, "a mans got to do |
something, up here alone; or he'll go
wrong, sure. Cor. Augusta ga. Chron-

Schooling at Twenty Dollars q Year.

SOAAAS 90 = Chty OOubIB u Il ear.
However moderate the expenses of a
student of the present time may be they
can hardly reach the extremely modest
sum which suficed for Jean Marmontel,
q French poet, during the reign of Louis
XIV, for years schooling. In his
memoirs" he speaks of his school life
as follows:
/ was lodged, as was the custom of
the school, with FIVE other scholars at
the house Of an honest mechanic.
My provisions for a week consisted
of a large loaf of rye bread, little
cheese, piece of bacon and two or three
POUNDS of beef. My mother had added
to them dozen apples.
This was the weekly provision of the
best fed scholar of the school. The mis-
tress Of the house cooked for us, and for
her trouble, her fire, her lamp, her beds,
her houserOom, including even the vege-
tables of her little garden which she used
for our soup, each of us gave her twelve
pence halfpenny month.
Reckoning everything except my
clothes, cost my father between four
and five pounds year. This was much
to him and an expense of which I was
very anxious to see him relieved.

From the Kalamazoo Gazette.
Mr.. William NJ. Beeman, than whom
few men in the city were better known
passed away at his home, l23 east Wal
nut street at 3 IL O'Clock yesterday after.

house the greater part of the time for

county, n. Y, April 3. 1928, and had
lived in Michigan 80 years, q of which
had been spent in this city. He was an
expert btidge builder by trade and twen-
ty years ago was engaged in building
bridges on the Grand Rapids and India
ma railroad and his handiwork may be
seen in many structures in this city. He
was marshal of the village for two years,
alderman from the fourth ward and also
held the position of street commissioner.
He was always conside red an honest
man, a kind neighbor and true friend.
He was city weighmaster at the time of
his death.

of Cleveland, O., who will arrive here
with his family to-day, and w. E. who
resides at Almoosa, Colorado. Notice

How 1t Feels to Be in Railway Wreck.
"a man who has never been in a
wreck wouldn't believe how long it takes
for the cars to get through piling up"
said another. AFTER the first crash
there is rebound clear to the back of
the train, and then the whole thing takes
another lunge, something gives way, and
maybe three or four more cars telescope.
Then there's another jerk backward and
another lunge, and it seems as if the
cracking and groaning and tumbling
keep on for five minutes. When a man
is mixed up with the trucks under the
whole stack it seems like an hour"

Male and Female Hrnins.

A physician who has had much expo.
rience of the insane has examined tho
b.ains of one thousand six hundred
subjects. He comes to the conclusion
that nature makes palpable differences
between male and female brains.
First, there is difference in weight.
the male being heavier. possibly by
che ounce, relative 10 weight of body.
second, while the frontal lobeS are
equal in the sexes, the parietal arc
larger in the male and the occipital in
the female, who. consequently. has
quicker perceptions; third. the female
brain is less convoiuted in the gray
matter and has less service: fourth. Tn.
blood supply is more copious in tho
anterior lobes in the male and tho
postcrior has a larger supply in the fe-
male. and these parts have different
activities. The blood of the female is
also poorer in corpuscles. there being
half n million less IN cubic milli-
meter. He fears that the tendency of
too much education or intellectual de-
velopment in women is to make them
lose beauty lie instances the FARO
women Of India. They are supreme.
They WOO the men, control the affairs
of the home and nation, transmit prop
erty aud leave man nothing TO do. The
result is that they are the uglies'

KEEP THEM OUT.
From the Leavenworti Times.

The supreme court of the state sus-
tanned the state canvassing board in
basing certificates of election upon the
returns of county clerks. The result of
this decision is that desperate struggle
is being made by the Populists in many
counties of the state to elect the county
clerks. Populist leaders boasted last
winter that they would capture the next
legislature through the county clerks.
Tie plain meaning of this is that Popu-
list clerks will be expected to falsify the
returns. thus securing seats in the legis-
iature TO Populist candidates.
4 year ago we would have thought
this an Idle boast. unworthy OF attention,
hut the events of the past ten months
have taught us that Populists believe that
the end justifies the means and that they
are willing TO resort to any means to at
tam their ends. A party that showed
such open and fragrant disregard for law
as was shown by the Populists at Topeka
last winter will not hesitate to falsify
election returns or commit any other
crime to secure possession of the legisla-
tilre.
