Released from Prison.

J. A. Cameron, who was in point OF
service the oldest man in the peniten-
tiary, was released from prison yester-
day morning after an incarceration OF
eighteen years and nine months. having
served under the system OF credits in
vogue there a sentence Of thirty. five
years.
Cameron, who was No. 1916 on the
penitentiary register. was sentenced
for life from Delta county in 1895 for
murder, but for good behavior his term
OF imprisonment was committed to
thirty five years. which by the process
of inanumission expired yesterday.
Cameron was an unusually intelli-
gent and interesting man, and while in
prison he invented an apple and pota-
toe parer, which he had patented by
the government. These he sold for
seventy-fve cents apiece, and when he
was discharged from prison yesterday
he had more than seven hundred dol.
lars to his credit.
Cameron occupied one cell in the
penitentiary for period Of thirteen
years.

STOCK COMPANY
ORGANIZED,

The Thompson Wall Paper & Pain,
Company has been Incorporated under
the laws of the state with a capita
stock OF S10, 900, having par value Of
one dollar share one half of which is
subscribed and paid up. The officer:
of the company are r. B. Thompson
president and general manager, A. D.
Morrison secretary and G. W. Orme
treasurer.
1t is the intention of the concern to
maintain every share of its capital
stock at par, and to that end will only
place it upon the market as the
exegincies of the business may require
the amount already in the hands of the
treasurer being sufficient for present
necessities.
The incorporation is the result of the
expansion of the business of R. B.
Thompson in the wall paper and paint
trade and shows what may be &C.
complished by push and energy. Mr..
Thompson came to Canon in March
1893 from Adams county, Iowa, and be-
gan business in small way with
Martin Hendricks as an associate. This
partnership lasted until January 1897
when Mr.. Thompson embarked in BUSH
ness for himself in one Of the rooms Of
the Shaeffer building on South Fifth
street.
In June 1900 he bought the stock of
@. A. Keables and located at l07 South
Fifth street where he began general
contracting business. His trade hav-
ing grown beyond the limits of the
town he begsn taking contracts with
the various fuel companies and has
since done lot of work in the camps
about Trinidad and elsewhere.
The increase in capital will enable
the company to double its facilities for
doing business as well as expedite its
contracts. Mr.. Thompson has employed
as high as twenty-five men and the
number will be augmented under the
new regime if circumstances justify it.
In addition to its wall paper and paint
trade the company will do a general
repair and house doctoring business.
Mr.. Orme will cooperate with Mr..
Thompson hy giving his personal atten-
tion to the business of the concern.

The county might do well to make a
poultry farm of the poor farm. The

poultry would be very easy and

the interests of the people at heart,
for he is one OF themselves, and their
surferings have been his. But be is no

prisoner for the heinous crime of hav-
ing formed one of a deputation of lit
erary and scientific men who waited
on M. Witte to urge the expediency OF
the tsar's appearing to the strikers on
January %. This man, who, if he can
not speak, can at least write to some
purpose, is Alexei Maximovitch Pyesh-
koff, better known to his courtrymen
ter, as he calls himself, in sardonic
allusion to the unkind fortune that has
been his from boyhood. His writings
first became known in England
through the medium Of translation
some three years ago, when his most
important novel, "Foma Gordyeff," ap-
peared in an English dress.
Gorky's knowledge of the outcast
and destitute was gained at first hand,
for there is no depth of social misery
which he has not shared. The son of
an upholsterer in Mini Novgorod, he
was left an orphan at very early
age, and was apprenticed to a shoe
maker. From this employment he ran
away, and his occupations thereafter
were legion. BY turns he worked as
draughtsman, maker of ikons, cooks
boy on board VOlga steamer, gar
dener's boy, and journeyman baker,
apple peddler, dock laborer, sawyer,
porter, railway watchman, and beer
seller. From his 18th year he had
been consumed by the desire for
knowledge, and having at least the
keys of education in his hands he had
become vOraciOus reader. He then
obtained better employment as assist
ant secretary to a councillor at law,
but once more he took the read, for
the vagabond in him is irrepressitle.
At Tif1is he served in railway work.
