SANDY BEND JUSTICE.
Judge HOl1e Is Always Up to Date
With His Decisions.

This we're court hevin' been regl lar
~ opened for SIGH bizness as may prop
erly come before it," said Judge Hoke,
as he took his seat and smiled blandly
at the audience, 1--WE will purceed to
dispose of the case of Wilkins VS.. Scott
Wilkins is Pug wilkins, a critter
known for fifty miles around Sandy
Bend by his bull voice and bluffin'
ways, and Bill Scott is a tenderfoot who
struck town only three months ago and
mas Deen looked upon as a sort o gin
gerbread critter. This court has bin
IN the same fix as the rest of the town
That is to say, he has gone down into
his butes on several occasions when
rug wilkins has rOared at MIN ana
reached back for his guns. It has bin
his opinyun that Pug was a dangerous
man to fool with, and that mas bin the
opinyun of other leadin citizens.
ON the other hand this court has
snubbed Bill Scott on any and various

SEVEN AND THIRTEEN.
Are Most Popular Numbers in Mans
Mind.

ASK a man to pick out some num-
Der between one and ten and you can
tell him nine times out of ten what
number he has. selected, though his
selection is made mentally" said
man who is fond of the odd things,
and when you come to think of it
the task of naming the correct num-
Der is not a difficult one. In the
course of an hour the other day I
asked ten men to think of a certain
mum ber-any number between one
and ten-and I would tell them what
number they had fixed their mind on.
In nine cases out of ten 1 was correct,
missing it only once. The minds of
nine of the persons selected the num-
Der seven and one of them selected
nine. 1t is not difficult to understand
why the mind should run to the num-
Der seven. 1t is the most natural
thing in the world for the mind to
select seven. Even in the case of the
man who fixed his mind on the num-
Der nine, he told me when it was all
over that his mind had first run to
seven, but he quickly changed to nine
without knowing just why it was that
he changed. Seven is the most promi-
nent figure between one and ten 1t
is the most popular number in the
line and is associated with more things
than any other number and it is
quite reasonable that the mind should
light on seven. 1 made another test
ing each of them to write some num-
Der between one and ten and give it to
a sixth person. When the slips had
been handed to the sixth man [ said,
Seven is the number on each of the
slips
Correct said the man to whom
they had been handed, and the five
men were a bit be vildered for the mo-
ment by the fact that they had all hit
upon the same number and that 1 was
able to tell what the number was. 1t
would be quite as easy to name a
number between ten and twenty,
though I have made no tests along this
line. 1 dare say that thirteen would
be the first number to flash in the
mind, simply because it is the most
talked of and the only number be-
tween ten and twenty that has the
widest association. So you can tell
there is no trick about it and it doesn't
require any knowledge of the occult

MExIC0's WHITE COAL.
Enormous Amount of Hydraulic Force
Is Going to Waste.

Modern Mexico has often had occasion
to call attention to the fact that, though
fuel is very scarce in Mexico, still the
country is supplied with an abundance
motors. We refer, of course. to water
power. The construction of electric
plants for the purpose of furnishing
light and power has hardly begun in
proportion to the demand and the wa
ter power available.
Mexico, which undoubtedly stands in
much greater need of electric power
than either France or Switzerland, on
account of the higher price of fuel, is
supplied with an almost unlimited
amount of hydraulic force. In the cen
trail mesa of the republic, which aver
ages 5000 feet above sea level, rise a.
great number of rivers and streams, the
Balsas, Lerna, Tamesi and PanucO be-
ing but a few of the more important.
While no accurate estimate has been
made of the available water power, it
is probable that at least $4,000. 00o-
horsepower are running to waste at
! the height of the dry season. Less than
one half of 1 per cent of this amount,
or say. rs, 900, is being utilized for mo-
tive power, including that used directly
by flour mills, cotton mills located df-
rectly at the falls, and absorbed by
electric plants for transmission to dis
tant points. In the City of Mexico, I'M
der present conditions, it probably
costs at least $3.50 a year, Mexican
money per horsepower to produce
power from steam, and even in the most
favored districts, where fuel is cheap,
it viii reach SIPS.
The coal barons of the United States
are, perhaps, her most solid aristocracy,
and those who get control of La
Huille Blanche" (the white coal) of this
country, will hold in the near future a
much more important position. The
power is here on top of the ground It
does not have to be mined or trans
ported It will carry itself with but
a wire to go on, and Mexico is a, coun-
try that offers many conditions favor
able to gigantic industrial enterprises

A SneciaI Effort

For several years owned q, cranberry
marsh in Michigan" said the speculatOr,
and I farmed it out on shares with a
nearby resident. Each year for four years
I got a written report from him reading:
4Dear Sir. The amount of the cranberry
crop this year was Is bushels, and in
close you draft for your half
After a time it struck me as queer that
theh crop should always pan out just is
bushels, and, making some inquiries, I
ascertained that it had always run over
20. and that my partner was beating me
Next year, Just before the season, wrote
him to the effect that I should expect 80
bushels for my share and after the gath
ering was over received a letter read
inG:
BY putting forth special effort in
this locality this fall the Lord has given
US a crop of 60 bushels of cranberries, and
inclosed you will find draft for your
share "
