ATTENDED ANNUAL
PRISON CONGRESS
Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Hardness Report
Good Meeting at Quincy,
Illinois.

Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Harkness re-
turned the first of the week over the
Santa Fe Central from Quincy, Illinois,
where.they went to attend the Nation
al Prison Congress. They report
splendid and in every way successful
convention, nearly 400 delegates being
in attendance, some of whom were
from foreign countries. England, Can
ada and Japan were represented by
delegates. The delegate from Japan
delivered an interesting address on the
provision they made in that country
for the care of the criminal class, but
he was highly pleased with the outlook
for the indeterminate sentence and pa
role law as we'll as the juvenile court
law, which is being brought so rapidly
to~the front in this country at the pres
ent time. John Kennith Ferrier was
the representative from Scotland Yard,
England, and came as representative
of the government to advocate the
finger point method of identification.
He gave some most interesting demon
strations of the method and. its entire
infallability. No two fingers have ever
been known to make the same impress
sion and it will only be matter OF
time. in his estimation, before the
world will adopt this method of identi-
fication.
It is astonishing, indeed, to find how
much interest is today centered in the
many phases of caring for and dealing

recinding, cancelling and declaring
null and void the II mills levy on the
dollar for the "Refunding Bonds OF
1904" and making new levy of two
mills on the dollar for the payment OF
interest coupons of the present out
standing bonds of the county OF Santa
Fe to all taxpayers and property own
ers as shown on the tax rolls OF 1904,
by mail, and that without delay. the
county bearing the expense for postage
and printing and that he send certi
fed copy of these resolutions to the
treasurer and ex-oficio collector of this
county for his information and guild
aace, without delay.

Editor and Doctor.

An exchange remarks til at if an edi-
tor makes q mistake he has to apollo
gize for it, but if a doctor makes one
he buries it. IF the editor makes one
there is lawsuit, swearing and the
smell of sulphur. but if the doctor
makes one there is a funeral, cut flow
ers and a smell of varnish.
The doctors can use a word a yard
long without knowing what it means,
but if the editor uses it he has to spell
it.
If the doctor goes to see another
mans wife he charges for the visit,
but if the editor goes to see another
mans wife he gets charge of buck
shot.
Any old medical college can make
a doctor. You can't make an editor.
He has to be born.
= When a doctor gets drunk it's a
case of ''overcome by heat" and if
he dies it is heart trouble. When an
editor gets drunk it's too much booze,
and if he dies it's a case of deli1i um
tremenS.

WANT TO
SHOW, They
ARE FAIR

Fall River. Mass, Dec 21.-The re-
port that Governor Bates had interested
himself In the settlement OF the strike
cannot be confirmed. President Borden
OF the Manufacturers association denies
that he has received any communication
from his excellency and up to noon the
koor leaders had heard nothing about
steps taken to secure a settlement eman-
ating from the governor.
The labor secretaries, one and all. say
they would welcome the overtures of
any one 70 secure an adjustment OF the
diffculties and especially from men In
high walks OF life They believe that
the matter should have been undertaken
long agJ and that II public men would
interest themselves IL would have some
effect upon the arbitrary position taken
by the manufacturers.
In asking for arbitration the labor
leaders are not emphatic In their choice
OF the arbitrators and simply suggested
members of the Civic federation because
they thought q better choice OF public
men could be made from that body.
They say that their willingness 10 make
sacrifice In oT1er TO settle the strike
must not be construed as sign OF
weakness and II Is done to show that
they want 90 be fair. n there is set
tlement the sacrifice will have 10 come
from both sides.
Checks TO the amount of $3.50 were
distributed 10 the ielief stations today
and provisions will be made by the tex
tile council on Friday for another dis
tribution next week.

Mr.. WHALEY
IS GIVEN
PROMOTION

The New York. New Haven and Hart
10 reward labor and 70 recognize execu-
tive ability and has promoted Mr.. A. r.
Whaley. the superintendent OF the Wor-
cester division, with offices in this city.
TO larger and better post in New York
The duties OF Mr.. Whaley in connection
with his new work are nominally
the same as those here but in
reality they are more arduous
since the division is far more
important and the traffic far greater Mr..
Whaley will have full charge OF the New
York division OF the New York, New Ha-
ven and Hartford railway with offices in
the Grand Central depot at 42d street.
His experience both In the position here
and throughout his entire career as a
railroad man eminently Ats him for the
duties. and the manner I'm which he has
conducted the business OF the company
here has created great confidence for him
In the minds OF the directors OF the road
that the affairs Of the company will be al
WAYS in safe hands so long as Mr.. Wha-
ley Is in charge.
Mr. Whaley assumed control OF the
Worcester division In 1900 and since taxi
ing upon himself the management OF that
road the affairs have prospered so notably
that the directors thought his executive
ability and untiring zeal could best be
utilized In a more important position,
hence the promotion.
Mr.. Whaley's rise has been rapid since
he mastered the rudiments OF railway af-
fairs and IL can be truly said that he rose
from the ranks having been a brakeman,
through industry and strict attention to
business. He was TO have taken charge
Of the offices In New York last night at
but delayed to straighten out
affairs here for the benefit OF the man
who is TO take his place.
IL has not become definitely known Just
who will assume control OF the affairs OF
the division as yet but until the directors
have decided finally Mr.. Chas. r. Ken
nedy. the assistant superintendent will
occupy tho position. Mr.. Whaley left for
New York this afternoon.
