"A bright young girl was seen reading

the talk OF that public so woefully mis-
named reading" when she was asked
by friend II she found the story in

that she was bored with 1t, but as
every one else was reading it she had
felt she must and had taken 1t from
the library. Now the friend had al
ready read the book and knew that
while 1t might be no worse than many
books which have been for their brief
day .'all the rage it was in no sense
either. a strong or bright book. That
was the reason that 1t seemed like such
a waste OF time for the girl to be read
ing 1t. Now there are two classes of
people who read books and then think
they are qualified to advise others on
matters literary. One holds to the opin-
ion that it is n waste of time to read
any book however interesting which is
not hiGhly Instructive. The other
claims that when a person has read a
page or two and does not find 1t inter-
esting he should put the unread book
aside and try another and yet another
until he finds one to his liking. Neither
one Is exactly right. The one must re-

is surely misleading Mr.. Miller states
that the grating done in this country
is notIstrictly correct and gives the
mode OF grating as the cause of fruit
trees being black-hearted.
Allow me to say that the piece root
and scion gratis Is almost the only
mode Of propogating apple trees in
other sections as we'll as this. We hear
no complaint Of black-hearted trees
from southern countries, neither do we
hear of it in the trees best adapted to
the climate and soil here.
f Cottonwood, willow and other trees
are propogated from cuttings and don't
get black hearted.
Apple scions are cuttings, no more
and no less. But as they do not take
root readily from cuttings, piece OF
apple root Is attached to the lower end
of the scion. A long scion and short
root makes 1t possible to insert about
six inches Of the scion in the ground.
This scion (cutting) always throws
out roots above the union and makes
as good tree as can possibly be grown
in any way.
Black heart Is caused by an injury,
injury is caused by extreme cold, ex-
IRENE heat or wounds on the body.

An almost successful attempt at jail
breaking was frustrated Tuesday eye-
ming, when Ed Block and Charles .Hass-
Ter, two crooks who have been bound
over to the grand jury, succeeded in re-
moving all but one course Of brick of
the outer wall, which is two feet in
thickness
Hassler and Block are the two men
recently held to the district court on the
charge Of entering Great Western
freight car and taking therefrom 800 ci-
gars and large number of gloves. The
men had been given the freedom Of the
corridors during the day, as is the Gus
tom with all except the very worst.
They had succeeded in wrenching from
one of the Jail bath tubs a section of
the feed pipe two feet in length and had
squeezed one end together SO that 1T was
quite sharp. With this they went to
work on the wall of the south side,
where the other prisoners had not con-
gregated An air ventilator was first
removed and then the brick about the
small opening. A blanket and bench
We're used to screen their efforts, and
the two men whistled and sang In order
not to cause suspicion. About y:15 Pearl
Harris, a colored man who was confined
in the Jail, discovered what the men
were up to and succeeded In attracting
the attention of George Green, another
colored man, who conducts barber
shop across the alley from the Jail. He
in turn informed Mrs Shoemaker, who
hastily summoned Deputy Sheriff Hut
son from the court house, Sheriff Shoe
maker being absent from the city at
| the time.
The deputy ran toSthe Jail. summon
Ing Linn Ferguson to accompany him.
and together they entered the cell room,
locking the doors and throwing the keys
back into he Jail Office. so that IL force
was attempted on the part of the pris-
oners the latter could not secure them.
Hassler and Block, suspecting that their
tplans had been found out, thought to
play the innocent and We're lying on
their cots. Deputy Hutson at once
4 placed the menin the solitary. where
1 they will be kept until their trial. The
4 prisoners took the matter coolly, and
inquired if they would be compelled to
stay in the solitary until their hearing.
1t is the custom to lock all the pris-
oners in the cells at 8 O'clock, and.
1 knowing this. Block aud Hassler had
made their plans accordingly. Fifteen
Tor twenty minutes more would have en-
\ abled them to cut thru the. last layer of
I brick that remained between them and
II liberty and the darkness would have as
sisted them In eluding the officers when
4 their escape was discovered.
