Close OF Conference.

The conference OF heads Of state institu-
lions came to a close at noon today. The
matter OF chief discussion and greatest in
terest at the conference was the question
OF what to do with undesirable employees
at state institutions. 1t appears that
there are persons who are chronic mischief
makers and wherever they go, no matter to
what kind OF a state institution, they cause
trouble. The paper read by superintendent
Fitzgerald and prepared by DR.. wltte Of
Clarinda dealt with the subject in a free
manner and recommended virtually that
there should be a general exchange of in
formation among superintendent for their
mutual protection against undesirable en-
ployes and servants. In the discussion this
morning the superintendents related their
various experiences in this line and ap-
proved Of what DR.. Witte had said. A
paper on engineering was read by Clayton
Durham of the Soldiers home and a paper
on winter d~airying at institutions by Su-
perintendent Gass OF the Orphans home.
A paper by Mrs. Hills on Juvenile courts
was well received by the conference. The
program for the next conference was ar
ranged, with the paper by superintendent
Rothert on Compulsory Education" to be
given, also a paper by Dr.. Marion II.
Pugh on THE Relation Of Physical De-
fects to Mental Development, a paper by
Chairman Cownie on Insurance of state

~Bonaparte Dam Case.

The attorney general plans to
action very soon in the legal proceedings
to establish the right OF the state Of Iowa
to build a fshway over the dam in the Des
Moines river at Bonaparte. The legislature
passed a law which requires the attorney
general TO proceedings for con-
demnation over the dam. This will force
the matter into the courts again, and il is
understood that the Meeks, owners Of the
dam, will again make a fight to resist the
right OF the state to give the FISH a chance
to get up the river. Announcement was
made some time ago that one Of the Meeks
would be a candidate for the legislature,
which indicates that the effort to get the
state TO pay a large sum OF money for the
dam may be renewed again. Another re-
cent project is to utilize the power Of the
dam for running an electric interurbsn line

Grim Jests of Criminals.

The callOusness and even the grim
humor of condemned criminals is well
eXemplified by the following stories,
says the London Globe On walking to
the scaffold in solemn procession a
criminal once called to the governor Of
the prison: "Just oblige me, guynor,"
he said, 'by telling me the day O. the
week." Monday" answered the sur
prised governor. "Monday! exclaimed
the prisoner in Disguised tones; .well,
this 'ere's fine way Of beginning a
week, amt it," And he marched on
with disgust imprinted on every line in
his face.
On another occasion an officious
hangman whispered rs he placed the
white cap on his victims head: eff
there's anything you'd like to arst me
I'll be pleased to answer, yer know"
The victim craned his neck forward
and said in an equally low, but very
much more anxious voice, "You might
tell me, isis this planking safer"

be said of them that Fairs most i'm
portant act was in being born the son
of millionaire, or rather of a prospec-
tive millionaire, and that among the
most notable Of his wife's achieve
ments was her marriage to young Fair.
Charles l.. Fair was born in Virginia

Hammock Swinging an Art.

The art of swinging gracefully in
hammock Is acquired. It does not come
naturally. 1t Is on par with learning
to ride a bicycle or rowing boat. 1t
takes considerable practice, much pres
ence of mind and skill to become pro-
fcient. Awkward positions are easily
taken while reclining or sitting in ham,
mocks, and the most graceful may fall
far short while in one Of these most
treacherous, though comfortable, ad-
juncts to summer outing.
To make a pretty picture young
woman should perch lightly on the
edge of the swing and poise herself
easily. The only true way to recline
is to cross the feet gracefully and al
low her skirt to hang freely over the
edge. The most trying ordeal for the
hammock girl is that of alighting from
the swing This Is always an embar-
RAISING moment, but quickness and a
little dexterity will extricate the young
woman from the trying position.

For months laughing boy has been
the bone Of contention in a famous
New York law suit. A husband and
wife had parted. They viewed each
other as strangers across a trial table
in a court room There was no doubt
about their love for the boy. 1t was
pure gold 1t should have made wo-
man more tolerant, a man more fOrgiy-
ing. Happy married folks can't I'M
derstand how the mothers and faith
ers of children can ever separate and
learn to hate. In this case there was a
great deal Of money ON one side. 1t
meant fine clothing for baby, and
nurses, rich food, carriage drives and
costly toys. Some day it would mean
a yacht, a valet a private car-al1 of
the things that can be had for money.
On the other side-the mother s-there
was much love and very little money.
1t was possible that her son would
be compelled to work some day, and
that he would be denied all sorts of
comforts and luXuies that go with
great incomes. What a problem for
the Judge. 1uIS JuuSc, uOSG udmS
is Hickey, has some strange ideas. He
thinks that when married folks are
foolish enough to break up a relation
that should mean peace and content
ment it is the business Of the court
to place the welfare of the children
above every other condition. That
doesn't mean money always. Listen to
the modern Solomon: THE boy needs
the personal attention and the loving
care Of his mother more than he needs
the money of his father, if the father
has the affection for the child he pro-
fesses he will see that his boy is
clothed and fed wherever he is" In
other words, mother is closer to her
children than a father, and, for once,
the law has recognized it. The idea
Of the superior claim Of father to
his children has received an official set
back. Where no question of morals is
involved and when love and money are
antagonists, Justice should throw her
influence on the side of hearts as
against gold Because it is best for the
children.
