A LITTLE EXTRA DINNER AR
RANGED FOR THE g..
CONVlCTH.
Usual Sunday Yard Exercises Will be
Extended and Divine Services
by Chaplain.

Christmas will not pass unobserved
at the state penitentiary, although
that feeling of good will toward all
men will be lacking in many respects
among the several hundred inmates of
the big prison and turkey and Eng
fish plum pudding will be absent from
the bill of fare when the convicts sit
down to their Christmas dinner. which
Warden KEGS has already arranged
for. Christmas at the penitentiary
will be observed mainly, pretty much
as Sunday is. The convicts will be
given yard exercise from $50 to II: 80
in the forenoon when they will be al
lowed many little privileges. Base
ball. games gymnastics, wrestling and
boxing matches and many other ath-
letic sports are INDUCED in by the con-
victs during the yard exercise and they
prove welcome diversion from the
close confinement in cell in the main
prison.
Rev. LeCornu, the prison chaplain,
will hold divine services during the
day and at 2:30 in the afternoon the
convicts will sit down to their Christ
mas dinner. Il am afraid turkey and
English plum pudding will not be on
the bill of fare Warden KEGS said
yesterday. 1--WE are arranging, how
ever, for a little extra dinner to re-
mind the boys that it is Christmas.
The usual yard exercise privileges will
be extended"

WALL STREET ACTIVITY

Nothing. has been seen for a long
time to compare with the present ac-
tivity in Wall street. There is a
daily business on the Stock exchange
that runs from 100000 to 10000
shares. and occasionally even higher.
There have been times when the fig
ures for a days transfers ran far
above this, but no such continuation
of heavy trading day after day. It is
not the volume of business, however
that is exciting comment, but the ad-
vances. The coppers are leading off.
There is great demand for the cop

a good share of legitimacy in the ad-
Vances in securities that represent

EDWARD ATKINSON. .

Edwar Atkinson, whose death was
recently recorded, is described as ar
economist. 1t is a large term which
economist, who gets a reputation for
handling figures regarding politi-
cal-economic subjects with scholar
ship An economist is one who using
a philosophic method becomes to a
great extent a guide to other men in
their thinking on like lines.
In this sense Edward Atkinson was
and was not an economist. He was
a student. He was searcher after
truth. No pains were too great for
him to take in delving for facts, but
he delved usually after forming a
theory as to what kind of facts he
wanted. In other words, he studied
as an advocate rather than as a phi
losopher.
This habit gave partisan atmos-
phere to much of his writing which
caused it to be more Controversial than
convincing. Yet if final truth comes
out of discussion Mr. Atkinson is en-
titled to high credit, for ne started
many controversies and contributed
to them vigorously while they lasted
Mr.. Atkinson suffered some from
the tendency of the American press
to have fun with people who are a lit
tie ahead of or a little behind their
times. The invention of his Aladdin
oven by which he demonstrated that
two pints of kerosene in a common
lamp would do the cooking formerly
demanding a hundredweight of coal
brought MIN more fillipings than
fame. 1t may be safely assumed that
Mr.. Atkinson many times wished he
had never invented it. and that he was
pleased when it was forgotten
The Aladdin stove, whenever it was
seriously considered at all, which was
seldom, was resented as an intima-
ton to the great American that he
should take care TO make his money
go as far as possible This contra
venes the prevailing idea of the Amer
lean that ne should live we'll and if he
does not come out even he must earn
more. Small economies do not appeal
to people who cheerfully pay heavy
customs duties in order that manu-
features may be established here Mr..
Atkinson's Alladin oven would have
succeeded better in Italy than Ameri-
ca.

encouraged by the professionals, will
result in boom from which severe re-
action would necessarily follow.
The present market will stand as a
record for successful bull operations
against factors ordinarily of influence
enough to cause heavy declines. For
country Of the bad things to come.
Scandals of the worst kind have
stirred up the country and caused dis
trust of high finance. Money adj
vanced to 25 per cent for call loans.
Any one of those things, under differ
ent conditions, would have prompted
operation for a fall, with every promise
of success. But the prosperity of the
country overpowered everything else
The American people are doing SO
much business and making So much
money that securities had to rise.
Whether it will not end in excuses
and disaster to Wall street is a fair
question. History shows that the
street always overdoes things. While
there is much to warrant the ad-
vances, it cannot be doubted that in
some instances the best has already
been discounted. Nevertheless, fur
Their advances are likely. If the new
year comes in with easy money con-
ditions, tne bulls will be encouraged
to play for a rise through the early
part of 1906.
The steam is on in Wall street and
it would be folly to make predictions.
Prices that looked high in the early
part Of the great Mckinley boom
looked very low before it was over. All
We can be sure of is that in the final
showing prices will inevitably rest
upon a level of legitimacy, based upon
earnings and other tangible influences.

Some European economists in dis
cussing the relation of the excessive
use of alcohol to crime, express the
opinion that if drunkenness could be
abolished more than half of all classes
of criminals would disappear. A Ger
man scholar says that a new method
of fighting drunkenness must be adopt
ed. This is to be found in such uni
versal education as will remove the
idea that alcoholic drinks have a high
value for nourishment and strength,
a notion which forms one of tie pre-
JUDGES for their use. When a man
begins to discover that he is burning

The excessive and indiscriminate
use of medicines, in these days, can
not be too strongly condemned. The
food you eat, if properly digested. is
all the tonic you need.
Only common sense is needed The
food must be digested ana the bowels
must not be allowed to clog. Pre-
serve your health by preventing these
conditions
Constipation surely leads to indi-
gestion, biliousness. etc, and these
conditions when neglected affect the
condition Of the blood, debilitate the
system, rendering it susceptible to
more serious ailments, and less able
to resist such attacks.
If your stomach has been abused by
over-eating, weakened by drugs or
sickness, you won't have to stop eat
ing or diet yourself All you need IS
something that will aid the stomach
in it's functions and relieve it from
being constantly irritated by un-
digested food. The purest and SIM
plest remedy for this purpose are the
California Prune Waters. a natural
dissolvent made from the pure, fresh
fruit, general laxative and sweetener
of the stomach-no other medicine is
necessary.
When you are Bilious, it is a sign
that your Liver is out of order, and
the poisonous bile, instead Of being
excreted from the body through the
intestines, is taken up in the blood.
AS result Of biliOusness, the entire
system suffers. There are gripping

STANDARD OIL INSURANCE.

The insurance presidents who fell
out and "peached" on one another
have their reward. Two of them
have been shorn of their salaries and
the third is on the ragged edge.
Meanwhile Mr. Rockefeller looks down
upon his Bible class, serenely conf
dent of his insurance arrangements
here and hereafter.
If the insurance investigation is to
eventuate in nothing but Standard Oil
control of all the companies, the re-
suit will be far from satisfactory. The
public will not stand for any such
outcome, as is foreshadowed by the
dispatches which declare that the
Standard Oil has gobbled all three Of
the big insurance companies and now
controls absolutely their combined an
nual income of $25O,O00,OO0.
The meaning of this is that Stand
ard Oil will have no rival in Wall
street nor out of it. The ready cas-
pouring every day into the Golfers of
the insurance companies in premiums
will stock all the Standard Oil banks
and trust companies and enable the
system to finance any deal it may
wish to spring without fear Of compe-
titiOn. The danger of such a monopoly
of money is bad enough in itself, but
when the people are compelled by the
working out of their insurance invest
ments to substitute the very concern
they most hate and despise, insult is
added to injury. 1t will not do tc
say that the despotism will be a be-
nevolent one, that Standard Oil in
vestments will be better for the in
sured than any that rivals could pro-
vide. Benevolent despotism mas
never commended itself to the Ameri.
can people.
What the outcome of such a monop-
big insurance companies will be it is
hard to predict. The policyholders in
the New York Life and Mutual have
still one recourse-tney may be able
to get hold of their own property by
organization and selecting independ-
ent directors. This theory Of the or
ganization Of insurance companies has
never been actually vitalized. 1t is
problematical whether it will be able
to accomplish anything, but it Is the
first legal step toward breaking the
tentacles Of the octopus.

GRADED SCHOOL NOTES.

The high school base ball team met
defeat at the hands of the Burlington
high school team on the college campus
last Friday afternoon by a score of six to
four. The game was lost through Mid
dlebury's poor batting. Middlebury was
apparently not up to her usual form and
and did not wake up until the ninth in
ming when Fisher quickly shut out Bur-
lington striking out two men the third
going on a fly caught by Smith. Middle
bury then came to bat Mack and Smith
running in two scores, and Fisher the 9th
man to bat sent a splendid fly to Collins
in right field, who made a one handed
catch, advantageous star play of the
game.
The day was splendid and never has
NJ Ii. S. played in the presence of so
large and SO enthusiastic a crowd of
supporters. Buttolph brought in Mid
dlebury'z first score in the first inning;
Bean brought in the second in the fifth
and Mack land Smith the third and
fourth in the last.
