~ TEW uses for old paper" re-
marked a junkman in
y Western city. ''are being
:ound almost daily by the
different trades and by people who have
a little ingenious turn or mind. You
don't see much waste paper thrown
away nowadays. and when you consider
the great amount that is daily accumu-
lating is seems remarkable. The penny
papers are Keeling OF tons OF paper
every hour OF the twenty-four and
everybody buys these. two or three a
day, and throws them away after using
them a half an hour or so. All this
great quantity OF paper must be des-
troyed or used. There are eager scaven-
gers OF the city after every scrap OF
newspaper and bundle OF wrapping
paper. II II were not so. the street
cleaning department would have 10 or
ganize a special corps OF men just 10
collect newspapers and burn them.
Most OF the newspapers are gathered
UP and converted into marketable
paper again. and some go In with the
rags TO make various kinds OF CONNER
eial material; but outside of these two
lines OF industry the paper is made into
different useful articles of a wonderful
nature. The newspapers are made OF
the spruce pulp. and by a steaming
process they can be reeonverted into a
similar pulp again. This pulp is not SO
good as I'm the first instance. and 70 one

In Favor of Portland.

Washington, Oct. 29.-Judge-Advo-
cate-General Davis, in an opinion rem
dered yesterday, confirms the conten-
tion of the Portland water board that
the secretary of war cannot compel the
City of Portland to lower it's water
mains under the Willamette river, in or
der that the Portland Lumber Company
and lnman, Poulsen & Company may
dredge 25-foot channel from the Mad
ison street bridge to Division street.
General Davis says the water mains
are not an obstruction to the present
channel being maintained at a depth
authorized by congress; therefore, so
far as the war department is concerned,
they are not an obstruction to natiga.
tion. If congress had heretofore au-
thorized, or shall thereafter authorize
the dredging of 25-foot channel above
the Madison street bridge, then the see
retary Of war will have ample authority
to compel the city TO lower the pipes
but not until then.

"Pnson Sunday, Tomorrow.

New York, Oct. 29-Tomorrow il
what is known as Prison Sunday" &
day on which the National Prison As
sociation asks ministers of churches tC
discuss problems relating to the pre-
vention of crime, and the treatment OF
the criminal. The association, which
has its headquarters in this city, is ac
tive in calling attention to what is con
sidered to be the principal means by
which the penal system and its admins
tration may be improved. Among the
reforms which it advocates are the fol.
lowing:
Punishment to begin only after a
conviction of crime, and not immedi-
ately after arrest, as the association
says is too often the case.
The administration of the prison sys-
tenn to be freed entirely from politics.
The extension of work under the pro-
baton law, and the appointment Of
more probation officers, especially for
the care of first offenders.
Better county jails, and the abolition
of the system under which the sheriffs
are paid by the day for the keep of
prisoners in their charge.
The enforcement of laws providing
for daily labor of prisoners under SEN
tenee, and the separation of prisoners
in the county jails.
The application of the indeterminate
sentence to all classes of prisoners, and
the extension of the parole system that
iii may apply to long-term prisoners.

Revolver

City Marshal ]. NJ. Grant was shot
in the left ankle by the accidental dis
charge of 80 .ealibre revolver about
$3.50 o'clock Thursday afternoon, says
the Observer. He was standing in
front of the Bank, and, in removing his
handkerchief from his pocket, drew the
revolver out with it. The weapon fell
to the cement sidewalk, and in striking
was discharged, the ball entering the
foot near the ankle joint. The marshal
was assisted to Belt e. Cherrington 8
drug store, where DR.. B. H. MeCallon
made an examination of the wound.
Some of the small bones of the ankle
were shattered by the ball, but the
wound is not considered serious. Sew

but were unable to find it. DIR. Mccall
