The United States has been a nation
with foreign relations for about cen
tury and u quarter. During that time
seven representatives of foreign gov
ernments have been dismissed. The
first instance was the case of Genet
minister from France, during Wash
ington's second term. He was recalled
in 1894 at the request of this country
for endeavoring to stir up trouble be
tween the United States and Great
Britain. During Jefferson's admins
tration Vrojo, the Spanish minister
was sent home on account of conduct
not only becoming diplomat, but ever
in an honest man and a gentleman
Jackson, the British minister during
Madison's first term, was recalled on
request from Washington because Of
offensive criticism of this government

While the annual report of the board
Of inspection of the eastern peniten-
tiary will not be ready for publication
for some time il is known that il will
contain more information regarding
prison management than has hereto
fore appeared in such documents. One
of the troubles that the present man
agement has had to encounter is the
effect of the recent legislation prohib-
iting TO great extent convict labor
in this and similar institutions in Penn
sylvania. The law in this state does
not go as far as that adopted in New
York. which is absolutely prohibitory,
but II does, II claims, go far enough to
make life unbenrable to some of the
prisoners.
1t has been suggested that in view of
the wholesale stoppage of certain lines
of work thai the famous treadmill sys-
tenn of punishment be introduced. 1t
has never been tried in America, IL is
believed, at least in the last 100 years,
and it would certainly be regarded only
in the light of an experiment. In Eng
land il is almost generally used in some
of the penal institutions. Ii is not
long ago that Charlie Mitchell, the cell
ebrated pugilist, who was defeated by
Corbett. in Florida, and Oscar Wilde
were sentenced to servitude on such a
machine and filed out their terms in
such capacity. Across the water the
system is regarded as very harsh, IL
not even brutal. Should it be adopted
here IL would be on a most moderate
plan, simply with the idea % giving
convicts enforced employment.
One of the penitentiary officials said
recently that "the board has taken no
action in the matter. 1t is merely a
matter of suggestion, and while II
might not be looked upon with favor
1t could be so managed that IL would
in no sense be brutal. 1t would compel
certain amount of active exercise and
that is what would prevent some nerv.
Gus prisoners from going out of their
minds. You have heard of the trou.
bles they are incurring in New York
from the fear of increased insanity be.
cause of lack of employment and close
confinement. Some of the men in tn,
eastern penitentiary are anxious foi
work, while others are not. There
should certainly be some means by
which the treadmill is worked to run
the machinery of the institution and tS

LAST OF HIS RACE.
The Mammoth Tortoise Which Capt
Porter brought from Chatham
Island In 1913.

To Mr.. Walter Rothschild, who has
purchased the gigantic reptile and
paced it in the new tortoise house at
the geological gardens, the public will
be indebted for the sight of what is, sc
far as is known, the last living speci
men of the Gaiapagan tortoise (Tes
tudo Galapagensis). The animal was
brought away from Chatham island in
S13 by Capt. Porter of the United States
cruiser Essex, and given by him to the
native chiefs of Raratonga, where it re.
mained until 1882, when Retumah, the
then head chief, presented ii to Capt
Macdonald, who took it to Sydney,
New South Wales, and from whose
widow Mr.. Rothschild purchased it.
The new arrival is very little II any
larger than the gigantic Daudin's tor
toise (Testudo DaudinD deposited by
Mr.. Rothschild last July, the carapace
of which taped over four feet in g
straight line, and more than five feet
on the curve; but it is considerably
heavier, the relative weights being
about eight and half and six hundred
weight, respectively. The latter Is
much the younger reptile, being only
about 10 years old, while the years OF
Daudin's tortoise are probably nearer
three centuries than two.
The tortoise Travelled from Sydney
to Plymouth by steamer, and on arriv'
ing nearly lost it's life through cold

the scenes of my childhood. l also de-
termined, after my arrival, to begin n
thorough investigation of the robbery
on my own hook. The reason i had
not done this before will be stated later.
The solitude Of Sidington, the lack
of welcoming hand, the knowledge
that / had outgrown all boyish esti-
mates and would therefore find the old
homestead no longer encompassed
about by the romantic interest which
youngsters mind was able to conjure
up-all this did not tend to raise my de-
pressed spirits, and my heart was heavy
within me as l plodded up the long,
dusty hill toward the home of Mr. Hun

A delicious breeze was blowing at the
top of the hill, and paused moment
under the shade of the naples, to bare
my perspiring brow to tt cool in

Then / slowly walked up the shady
path leading to the porch, keeping my
hat in my hand. Ihoped Mr.. Hunsicker
would be at the house for dinner, for
/ determined not to go out into the hot
fields to search for him.
A knock at the open front door caused
an interruption in the clatter of dishes
which proceeded from an inner room,
and very soon shuffling footsteps ap-
preached the door.
A tall, stoop-shouldered individual,
dressed in a brown cotton shirt, blue
overalls and cowhide boots, loomed up
out of the gloom of the darkened rooms.

covered from his surprise, again ad-

A well-known novelist delivered lectars
recently in which he read selections from
his own works. His reputation and the So
ciety that engaged him brought together an
audience composed of the best people Of the
neighborhood. After the lecture, when
people met, it was the proper thing for ono
to ask the other:
"Were you at the lecturer" And the
answer in every case:
"Oh, yes! was there, but didn't hear
word. Did you hear the lecture"
well, mol. l was there, but / couldn't

A friend who met the novelist few days
after his visit to the suburban town asked

as soon as he discovered that he was not

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided In Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suffer-"
and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. II young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets 1t.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinlham's address Is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MAEIE
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became SO poor that i
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. I was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. followed the advice
you gave. and used Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as
ever was. have gained flesh and have
. good color. I am completely cured ol
lrregularity."

"And where does Mr.. Hunsicker live?"
I asked.
The agent pointed TO n clump of trees
on the summit of hill about quarter
of a mile distant. "You kin see just
part of the roof through the trees. The
road runs uphill right past the house"
"How about these things while am
gone? Will they be safe" inquired.
"Oh, yes; no one'li take 'em. It'll be
all right" he replied, indifferentiy, as
though he did not care whether my lug
gage would be secure or not. Then he
gave one more glance at me, grinned in
his dull way, sprang from the platform,
and went off down the road.
All the country for miles about Mel
sonville had been familiar to my boy

years, could hardly recognize this part
of it,
The railroad had been built some five
years before, ard that made, in itself,
n great change. The station was in a
valley, and the fertile fields and dark
green forests on the bounding hills were
all very beautiful.
But, as there were few houses, and
those in the distance, there was a
loneliness about the place which seemed
to find counterpart in my life. For
