TOMMY ATKINS IN PRISON.
Even Though His oBsnse Be Grave
One He Is Not Socially
Ostracised.

Civilians are often puzzled TO know
why soldiers are sometimes sent TO the
usual penal establishments, such as
Portland and Pentonville, when there
are numerous military prisons main
tanned especially for them, states
London Tit-Bits. The explanation Is
that when Tommy Atkins commits
crime he is punishable under the Grim
inal laws Of the land. Just as II he were
civilian, and only when he has COM
mitted purely military offense, which
is not a crime. is he sent to one or
other of the Is military prisons.
In the latter case, Tommy is not a
criminal, but ranks about equal to a
mlsdemeanant, and, even though his
offense may be a grave one against
military law, he is not socially or actu-
ally such a sufferer as he would be II
he had committed criminal offense.
Tommy's life In his own particular
prison, to which, by the way. he can
not be committed for longer than two
years, is not on the whole very Sc
we're. What he feels most keenly. per
haps, Is the loneliness: for aftel

tale which passengers on tho White

a whale on the other, while the ship

only thirty yards off the starboard

Mason City. Ia, Nov 7-Repre'
sentatives of the farmers co-opera
tive societies from a dozen towns in
this part OF the state were at Rock

LAND OF FLOWING SILK.
Natural Skeins Fresh from the CO.
coons Are Met With In Rus
sian Roland.

Silk is not always sign of luxury or
wealth In Turkestan. The author Of
"In Russian Turkestan" tells Of a stall
wart countryman who ferried his par
ty across the Syr-Daria, miles away
from any town or village. His outer
garment was In rags and half-covered
with mud, but as he worried at the
ferry rope they coula zee that he wore
beneath this a tunic, or shirt, Of the
finest silk.
when we were ia ing our first
stroll in Russian Kolano," wr ties Mrs
Meakin, 1--WE noticed a band of gold
shining through the trees on the other
side of the street, and wondering what
1t could be, We crossed over to ex-
anime the glittering object 1t proved
to be a skein of silk fresh from the
cocoons, of such length that it had
been wound round the trunks of two
poplars more than 20 yards apart. A
Sart was carefully conbing it. He
seemed surprised that we should stop
to look at what, to him, was SO COM
mon a sight. A little later, in an
other street, we came across a still
longer skein; this one had been dyed,
and shone a brilliant purple in the
afternoon sun.
THE machinery for boiling the
cocoons and winding the silk is al,
~ n ,,,uob ,,,nro prirnitiva scala than
that of Japan, but the quality of the
SIR produced rs infinitely superior,
When the silk has been wound Oh
the cocoons, it is sold to native dyers
The weavers buy the silk of the dyer
and weave it on the most primitive Of
looms.
almost every man we met in the
streets of Samarakand was clothed II
| silk. A gentle breeze filled theil
long, wide sleeves till they looked LIKE
silken pillows, and spread out thu
folds of their ample garments, whil'
the silk embroidery shone in the di
rect rays of the midday sun. Neverthc
less the cottonseed is now usurpin;
every inch of cultivable ground. AL
though its odor is spelling the fra
GRANGE of the air, and its scattere'
fluff makes the very streets look lik
factories, materials manufactured Ii
Moscow from that very same cottol
are quietly but surely usurping tn
place of those glorious silks tina
charm the eye of every Europeal

HOT WORDS
Alaska Women Hits From
 the Shoulder

An address recently delivered at St. Louis, by Mrs. c. s, Johnson, of Nome, wife of the former United States dis trict judge for Alaska, has attracted wioe attention throughout the east. She said the United States government treated Alaska like red headed step child"
 The portion of Mrs. JohnsOn's address that has attracted the widest attention is as follows;
 "Now Alaska is hardly dealt with politically She has no representative in Washington. She casts no votes in national affairs. By courtesy only, she is allowed delegates in the national convention for presidential nominations, but her voice might as well be stilled for she casts no electoral vote.
 "Her public offices are presidential appointments and are almost entirely filed by men whose lives have been spent in a totally different environment and who regard Alaska from an outside viewpoint. It is not to be expected that the president of the United States can personally know the character of every man he appoints to office, but it is unfortunate for us that the senators who recommend men for office in Alas ka are $ meutmes prompted by other than uuselfsh and honorable motives, and that Alaska proves such a cooven- tent dumping ground for men iucousid- crate enough Co be in the way at home.
