II LAND COURT.
Congress Decides That it Will Take
Another Year to Complete
lts labors.

The Sundry Civil Appropriation Act
passed by Congress extends the life
the land court until June 80, 1904
The following appropriations were
made for that purpose: For chief JUS
tice and four associate justices, at
$4,000 each; for clerk, $4,000; stenog-
rapher, 1900; attorney, $500, inter
prefer and translator, $500; in all
$685. 0O. For deputy clerks, IS author
lied by law, SO much therefor as may
be necessary.
For survey of private land claims in
the States of Colorado, Nevada, Wyo-
ming and Utah, and the Territories of
Arizona and New Mexico, confirmed
under the provisions of the Act of Con-
gress entitled IAN Act to establish a
Court Of Private Land Claims, and to
provide for the settlement of private
land claims in certain states and ter
ritories," approved March 3, 1891, and
for the survey Of such private land
claims heretofore confirmed as may
be deemed necessary. $4,000, said
sum to be also available for office
work on such surveys and for the ex-
animation Of the surveys in the field.
Punishment q Deterrent Of Crime.
The most important duty of any po-
lice force is the control of the vag-
rant and criminal classes and the pre-
vention of crimes against person and
property. There are many other and
important fields of usefulness, but un-
less the force is successful in dealing
with crime it is a failure. AS a deter
rent Of crime, nothing Is probably
more effective than swift and sure
punishment. In England a murder
trial is completed within a few weeks,
or months at the outside, after the
apprehension of the accused, and from
the first trial there is no appeal to a
higher court of review or appeal. The
wisdom of permitting no appeal in
capital cases is a question which has
been widely discussed, and cannot be
taken up here, says Avery D. And
rews, writing for the March CosmO-
politan. Whether wise and humane
or not, it is interesting to note that
the police records show an astonish-
ingly small number of murders in
London, and l believe that the eel
Gritty with which the trials are con-
Quoted has much to do with the sup
preston Of this most heinous Of all
crimes. According to the official re-
port of the commissioner of the Met
ropolitan police, there were reported
to the London police only twenty-four
murders in the calendar year 1901 and
this out Of o population Of over 6,000,-
900.

Kansas City, Mo-: The Novinge1
miners must resume work pending a
discussion of the wage scale between
the miners and the operators. A con-
vention of District. No. %, here Sun.
day so decided, and a committee Of
Novinger miners and scale men was
sent to tell the miners this fact.
AS the latter in their meeting on
Friday agreed to abide by the conven-
TONS decision, it now looks as IL they
must resume Work without further
parley or be ousted from the union.
President Mitchell hopes that the
work of the scale committee will be
finished this week Both he and the
convention will remain till it is COM
pleted, for the convention must in
dorse it before it is final. The fact
that nearly 100 delegates are here will
have a tendency to expedite matters,
on the part of the miners, at least.

Columbia, Mo-: The authorities of
the biology department of Missouri
University have established a rat
farm. Pure white rats, the first as
sigument Of which were received Sat
, urday. will be used entirely for breed
ling, and a part of the biology build
ing has been especially equipped for
the rearing and care of the rodents.
The rats are to be used for expert
rments in dissecting. The white breed
has been found to be the most desir-
able. Cats were formerly used in
stead, but the towns supply of fe-
lines has been exhausted. The stu
dents, under cover of darkness, en-
tIced them away from the Columbia
households and concealed them at the
university. A little girl looking for a
stolen pet recently discovered in the
basement of the academic hall a cage
built by the students in which 400 cats
were awaiting death by poison in the
laboratories. The little girls pet was
among them, and when she com
