I'OR eight years had occupied the
position Of resident physician at
the state penitentiary at S., and for
the first time my position meant much
TO me. This was owing to a romance
which had begun to blossom for me
within the austere prison walls. She
was the warden's niece, beautiful and
frail, who had but recently taken up
her abode among Us, acting as secre-
tary to her uncle. The interest was
mutual, for Pauline did not frown
upon my suit, and was on my way to
the warden TO ask his sanction Of our
union when ! met him In the corridor
crumping a telegram in his hand. Per-
emptorily OBTAINING me, he explained
that he was leaving the city immediate
ly on urgent business and that as the
deputy was III would be compelled to
act in his place.
Accordingly ] started on my rounds
of inspection at once with no word Of
the subject nearest my heart. went
first to the brush shop, where a new
man was overseeing the work, and was
detained there some time by the ap-
parent unrest and disorder.
Thoughts Of this place had, at the
warden's first instructions, caused me
misgiyings which grew TO positive APP
prehenslons when Brown, the new man,
called me aside and reported a convict
by the name OF Brooks for rank in.

man and particularly bad one. lie

the bad blood Of both races In his veins.

evening when, just as Pauline and |
were leaving the building for a quiet
stroll about the campus, a "trusty" in
formed me Of Brooks escape. He had
removed one Of the great flags in the
floor OF the solitary and had slipped
underneath.
Pauline was pale and trembling when
! left her to begin the search for this
black monster, Fearing he would fire
the building before we could discover.

from there we would have to proceed

Among the things of Importance was
the refusal of the association to in
dorse Senator Smiths bill placing the
naming OF the official county paper in
the hands of the state executive coun.
Gil. The sentiment of the association
was unanimously against the bill. No
one could be found to speak a favor

on the bill, and then proceeded to Give
an account of newspaper life in the
early days, and no one seemed to find
the connection between his talk and
the bill in question. The sentiment
was that the bill was unwise and un.
fair, took local affairs out of the
hands OF the people and tended to do
away with the freedom of the press.
The semi-centepnial exposition was
lndorsed and a resolution passed in
favO" OF an appropriation for a build
ing at the an-American Exposition.
In the election of delegates to the
national association the Kinsley
Graphic was favored by the 7th Dist.

of great value to the newspaper fra

pleasure and profit of the association

given to him in recognition of his

The annual report on savings banks
for Paris, France, for 1900 has just
been published. 1t shows that at the
end of that year the number of de-
posits was 10,31G,00O, the amount of
deposits being 4,33G,0OO,O0Of. In 1882
there were 4,G45,000 depositors, with
deposits amounting to 1902, 900, ,000f.,
and the increase has since been unin-
terrupted. In 1882 123 Frenchmen
out of every 1000 We're depositors. The
proportion is now 2G7 per 1000. OF the
depositors, twenty-eight per cent are
minors, sixteen per cent. artisans, fif-
teen per cent. owners of land or per.

The largest atlas ever printed in the
United States is. being prepared by
the census bureau. 1t will not be
merely a big book of maps showing
the outlines, cities, rivers, lakes and
mountains of the country, but will
enable the examiner to see at a
glance the density of population, the
value and extent of various crops and
products and the state of industrial
activity in any locality. To the lay
man the books Of statistics issued by
the department meant but little. Any
one can understand the charts and
diagrams that will make up this atlas.
which will not be issued until after
all the other publications of the CEN
sus are completed and handed to the
public. 1t will contain special fea-
lures embodied in all the other works
and therefore cannot be completed
until all the rest are finished.
