Map Making Made Easy, But Little
knowledge Absorbed.
Little Rob was the prize geogra,
pher of his class; that is, he could To-
cate cities. and bound countries with
great glibness. He could draw the
most realistic maps, printing in the
rivers, mountain ranges and cities
from memory. Rob considered geog-
raphy purely in the light OF a game,
in which he always beat, but he never
associated it with the great world
about him. Rivers to him were no
% than black, wiggly lines; cities
were dots and States were blots. New
York was green. Pennsylvania was
red and California was yellow.
OF course Rob had never travelled
He was born in a canon near the
country school he attended. One day
the teacher made the discovery of
Rob's idea of geography through the
following incident. After vainly in
curing of several OF the children
where British Columbia is located, she
called on Bob, who, as usual, was
waving his hand excitedly, wild with
the enthusiasm of pent up knowledge.
1T is on page sixty-eight," he de.
clared.
After the roar had subsidized the
teacher explained that that was only
q picture of British Columbia. Then
she asked Bob to bound British, Co.

Are You Tired, Nervous

Nervousness and sleeplessness are us

they are starved nerves. DIR. Pierco's

properly nourished and all the organs of
the body are run as smoothly as machin-

LIFE OF SIN ENDING
JOHNNY HUGHES, ONCE NOTED
couNTERFEITER, NEAR DEATH.
Wasted by Disease, and with Nothing
OF His crime-stained Wealth. Left,
He Is Now a Dependant on the Char.
ity of Friends.

Johnny Hughes, once a noted coun.
terfeiter, is dying in Vineland, N. j..
with cancer of the liver. DIR. George
cunningham, of that place, has made
application to have him taken 10 the
hospital in Gloucester county, and
Harry Jones Of Franklinville has prom
Used to care for him. Hughes moved
to Willow Grove, Cumberland county,
from Franklinville, seven months ago,
and has not been in the county long
enough to become a charge.
Although 81 years of age, Hughes
wears his black locks in the same
Jaunty manner as he did in his prime,
and looks the same, except that his
face is shrunken by disease. He was
a sport i'll former days, and his manly
form and good looks made him a fav~
orite with the women, although he dio
not marry until a few years ago. He
has a rich sister in Philadelphia, but
as she is away OH her vacation he can
not find her.. and does not want to
disgrace her by advertising for her.
He says there is a fund in the frater-
nifty of counterfeitersx to which he is
entitled, but cannot locate the treas
urer. He is reduced to abject poverty,
and with tears in his eyes yesterday
said: How can | meet my God with
such a record as l haye?" Then he
frightened tip and said: But nobody
can call me a thief or a murderer
only a ,counterfeiter-and for the past
twelve years, I have lived honestly"
Hughes has had a remarkable career
During his life he spent fourteen
Christmastides in prison. He learned
the art of engraving in New York and
in 1862 was arrested in South street,
Philadelphia, for passing SIS notes of
his own manufacture. He served a
year, in Cherry Hill. In 1865 he was
arrested on suspicion, but went free.
In 1874 he was caught making half
dollars at South Vineland and went to
Trenton for three years. In 1878 he,
with a partner named Noah Kane, now
dead, opened a plumbing. establish
ment on the principal street in Vine
land. They attended to business in
tne daytime II made spurious silver
dollars at night.
A boy peeked in the window one
evening, and, running home, shouted:
Pop. they are making money ove at
the tin shop to beat anything"
Kane turned states evidence ant
Hughes got five years. At Pitman
Grove, in 1884, Detective Bell caught
Hughes again passing spurious coin.
John Garrison, a partner, Hughes says,
gave him away. Having an inkling of
what was coming, Hughes hid the dies
in a swamp and never could find them.
He got five years more. His last ar
! rest occurred at Franklinville in 1890.
He was given five years, but was par.
doned after serving half the time.

The Way It Grows Out West

One of our readers whose veracity
is above question tells the following:
The terrible news comes from the
western part of the Cherokee nation
that a boy climbed a cornstalk to see
how the corn was getting along, and
now the corn is growing up faster than
the boy can climb down. The boy is
clear out of sight. Three men have
undertaken to cut to tsalk down with
axes, but it grows SO fast that they
can't hack twice in the same place.
The boy is living on nothing but raw
corn. and already has thrown down
four bushels of cobs.
