 But perhaps the most interesting of all of the queens gifts to the church was the Vinegar Bible" still to be seen in the church, What kind of Bible is a ''Vinegar Bible?" you may ask, It was a Bible published in the year TIT in oxford, England, by man named John Baskett. the kings printer. The printer made a blunder in setting up the Parable of the Vine yard" so that it read the Parable of the Vinegar" Forty copies of the Bible with this mistake in them were printed before the error was discovered and rectified It is said that but four cop ies are now in existence, and one of them is the copy Queen Caroline sent to the church named in her honor. An other copy is in the famous old Christ church in Boston; one is in the LenoX library in New York. and the fourth is in Christ church Philadelphia. These copies are very valuable.-St. Nicholas.

WHY IT FELL.

The Santa Fe New Mexican has been demanding statehood for New Mexico for fifty years. It's opposition to joint statehood began with the advancement of that iniquitous proposition and continued vigorously until after the passage of the amended Hamilton bill It's arguments against jointure were strong and unanswerable. Not only would joint statehood be the end or separate statehood but it would De worse than no statehood at all. Prac- tically all the objections uttered by Arizonians against jo.nture were urg- cd also by the New Mexican.
 The New Mexican favored the de- feat of the Hamilton bill as to the two western territories. or the adoption or the Foraker amendment. It professed satisfaction with the Burrows amend ment.
 But soon after the passage of the amended bin the New Mexican was converted to joint statehood. It did not offer In explanation of. it's change of policy, a change of belief. con version to the theory that jointure would be good thing. It professed to have come into possession of no new information. It did not admit that 1T had been in error for half century. in working for single statehood or that it had been under a misapprehensior during the two years it had been fight ing joint statehood.
 The New Mexican. the other day explained its conversion to joint state hood. It was moved by two circum- stances. One was the passage of the Hamilton bill whose defeat the New Mexican had been urging and which had been defeated so far as New Mex leo and Arizona were concerned. What had the emasculatiOn of this bill To do in the mind of the New Mexican with the statehood question? The very thing had been done to it that the New Mexican wanted done-the release oi New Mexico and Arizona from its provisions. The reason for the New Mexican's change of front may be sim 1nered down to this-now, that we have conquered the enemy. the thing tc do is to surrender to him.
 That is one of the New Mexican's req sons. The other Is still more extra ordinary, 'the determination of Pres ident Roosevelt publicly announced made 1t impossible to obtain this boon Separate statehood) at an early date
 An. Col Frost, who would have thought it? Does the New Mexican pre- of President Roosevelt on the subject of statehood would be of any moro force and effect than that of John Smith of New Jersey? The New Mexican was perfectly aware or the presidents "determination' ever since November last, and was aware of il during the several months that paper was violently fighting jointure.
 We bring this subject up now no to taunt the New Mexican for it's Va cillation. but to present to our readers the only two arguments in favor O. joint statehood that can now be ad- duced by the oldest and one of tho ablest papers in New Mexico. On' reason is the passage of the Hamilton bill and the other the presidents de- termination that it shall be jointure ol nothing. There is absolutely no oth CT that the New Mexican can think o to offset the abundant and strong req. sons 1t had been advancing for two years why nothing would be preferable to jointure.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 17.-People

the shortage of cars.
This is the report made to Presi-

the interstate commerce commission
giving evidence regarding the shortage
Of cars.
Gronna gave the president a letter
from A. M. Beverage, editor of a

which showed that the cold weather Of
the last few weeks caught hundreds

Ballard Is In a Whirlwind Of Crime.
Men, Women and Children Being
Robbed On Streets.

BALLARD, Dec. Harmed thugs
have created a reign of terror in the
residence section of Ballard. They
have been holding up men, women
and children for the last two weeks,
such occurrences now taking place
almost nightly. The police have done
nothing to put an end to the carnival
of crime, and realizing that it is use
less to make a report to headquarters
many Of the victims are no longer do
ing so. Meanwhile the thugs are
growing holder.
Arthur Libby, the 13-year-old son of
Capt E. E. Libby, residing at 2S7
Main street, North, was held up in
a dark path near Railroad Avenue
and Sloop street shortly after o'clock.
Two men seized him and after threat
ening to club him to death If he
made an outcry, went through all his
pockets, incidentally tearing his clothes
badly.
Left Money at Home.
Arthur is a schoolboy who delivers
papers in the evening, and the thugs
had evidently expected to get his even
ings collections. The boy, however,
had left all his money at home as he
passed by earlier in the evening. The
robbers tore up about thirty of the
boys papers, so that he would not
go over the remainder of his route and
spread the report of the attack made
upon him.
Although the police have kept the
matter quiet, it has been learned that
Miss May Hyman, a young woman en-
ployed at the Portland Cordage works
Roberts at 425 Railroad avenue, was
attacked by a man within a stones
throw Of her home at $50 o'clock Sat-
urday night. She offered him heI
purse, but he would not take it, and
attempted to drag her into the brush
nearby. Miss Hyman fought desperate
ly, and her clothes were badly torn
Her screams attracted the attention
Of Mrs. Roberts, who ran to the front
| porch of her home. The young wOm-
ans assailant then ran away. The
! shock to Miss Hyman was so great
| that her nerves are still unstrung anG
she is afraid to go to work.
| Little Arthur Libby was held up 6
short distance from where Fred Pells
was attacked Saturday night by high
waymen who robbed him of $11.
1t is reported that another young
woman was held up in the same sec.
ton of the city last Monday night, bu
the police assert they know nothing
of it.

tered the residence Of Edward Cairn!

A WOMAN EXPERT WHO HAS AN
ENvlAeLE RECORD.
I, a Product Of the Bureau OF Stats
tics at Washlnetcn-she 10 Now
Connected with New York
Cotton Market.

New York.-Wall street has another
lady statistician." Her name is Mrs.
Bertha j. Burch, and her specially is
cotton. She has entered into her new
field after a thorough course OF tram
ing in the bureau of statistics at WASH
ington, where she was for several
wears the confidential secretary and
assistant of John Hyde, who, whatever
else may be said Of him, is to-day con-
sid cred the ablest statistician the pu-
reau ever had.
Wall street at first was inclined to
make light Of lady statisticians," as 1t
sneeringly called them. Miss Kate M.
Giles labored under the handicap oil
sex when she first began to give out
figures on the condition Of the cotton
crop and estimates of the size OF the
yield. Finally it dawned on the mas
culine cotton experts that they had
better look to their own laurels, and
since then Miss Giles has been per-
mitted to pursue her work undis-
turbed.
Mrs. Burch in many respects Is the
best trained cotton statistician who
has ever been connected with the New
York cotton market. When she re-
signed from the bureau of statistics
last year Secretary Wilson said of
her: She is very able woman and
probably capable of issuing as good q
report as Hyde himself"
She became associated with the bu'
reau of statistics about ten years ago,
when Henry A. Robinson was its chief
She occupied a subordinate position
at the time, but rapidly worked her
way upward. When John Hyde became
chief of the bureau Mrs. Burch was
appointed his secretary, as she was
familiar with statistical work and was
an excellent stenographer.
During the Hyde regime Mrs. Burch
became acquainted with the methods
Of her superior. She learned how the
reports were made up and how the re-
plies from the different classes of cor,
respondents were weighed. She soon
learned that it was wise to add a grain
of salt to the tale of damage related
by some crop killer" as well as to

Although everybody thought the crou

and many placed it below 10,0OO,OW

bureau of statistics made an estimate
