SNOWFALL CAUSED
BIG TENT TO COLLAPSE

The snowfall at Salida last wednes-

caused the big tent In which the "Bil-

SUGGESTION Titles.


THERE used to be time when the word red
was quite fad among novelists, especially in the
lection Of fitting title to their books. There was
the "Red Badge of Courage "On the Red Stair
case" "Red Saunders" "The Red Cockade," and
many others. The success Of some Of these novels
had much to do with the selection of theword "red
Confession another word that seems to meet with
popular favor at the present time It ls no uncom-
mon thing to see such titles The Confessions ola
Congressman" '.The Confessions of Grass Widow, =
"The Confessions of Politician '"The Confessions
of Burglar" etc.
All this proves that there is something in the
theory of suggestion. 1t is by this medium that the
patent medicine fakes do such rushing business.
Their ads convey the suggestion Of some latent dis
ease and little mental anxiety in which every
is vibrating toward the supposed weakness, and the
individual realizes that he is in sore need of six bot
ties ofythis that particular dope. Suggestion has
much to do in promoting our likes and our dislikes
for others. Every man has it within his power to
strengthen or to weaken the friendship Of his ac-
quaintances. He need only suggest what is merely
problematcal in order to nfct injury, and like the
titles of the books which we have quoted, the sug-
gestion keeps repeating itself.

PRINTING the Pure.


WITH the constant increase of crime in this
country, it is time to ask what part the newspaper
press plays in that increase. It is time for news
paper to realize that their papers have, in many
instances, become too largely sensational. Nothing
is fit to print in the newspapers that is not inform
ing helpful or ennobiing. There is nothing new in
vice crime To speak of haunts Of lust constantly,
and in other than in terms of shame and condem-
nation, is bad form and bad morals It is just
seemly for newspaper that goes into the homes of
all the people, to be constantly at any time soiing
white paper with such terms the "tenderoin" or
the red light district and the matters falsely called
news, connected Herewith, it would be for visi-
tor ones home to offend the of ones wife and
children with such expressions and to corrupt their
minds and morals with such matters.
There is a world of edifying, entertaining hap
penings Deeds undertakings, inspiring thoughts and
words every day, that would fill up all the space
devoted to exaggeraton, trivialites immoralities,
divorces and worse things that vile, degrading,
mind dssipating and soul-destroying. The doings
that edifyng and Fit to print do not lack in hui

WITH this issue The MIRROR completes it's
nineteenth year. At the time this paper in
augurated it was almost new venture in penal in
stitutions Since then, however, there have sprung
into existence a score of prison papers; and the
phrase, "Prison Journalism" is frequently used,
sometimes by many of the largest papers in the
country.
Since The MIRROR has been in existence it has
chroniced many remarkable improvements in this
prison and in other state institutions. Among the
humane and most notable changes to take place in
this prison. was the abolishing of "stripes;" and,
simultaneous with the grading system, was the in
auguration of the parole law. Only recently wehave
noticed that Warden Wolfer has interested himself
in measure which provides for the paroling Of
United States prisoners There alsoha been started
in this institution Prison Night School, aChautau
qua Circle, Band, and an Orchestra.
To enumerate the progress made in penal inst-
buttons during the past nineteen years would require
much space. Previous to that time there were no
systematic efforts made to educate the prisoner to
aid the ex-prisoner The discharged prisoner was
left to shift for himself; the mention that he
ex-convict, at that time, almost sufficient
evidence to arrest him suspicion. Where there
used to be but prisoners aid society, there are
now hundreds all actively engaged in this benefcent
work. AS a rule the public is more interested
in what is being done in prisons than formerly.
It realizes that what the prisoner is taught to do to-
day, he is likely to continue doing tomorrow and
that if he is turned out of prison than when he
entered it, society is likely to profit to lose, the
case may be. Considering the advancement that is
being made in everything ese it is safe to say that
there will continue to be development in penal in
situations during the years to come.

WE HAVE often envied the luck which some men
seem to possess. Just why they appear to be more
fortunate than others have been able to
derstand. At times we imagined their luck was
purely negative proposition, and that qualification
was the deciding factor in their lives. No matter
what some may do or what they may say, they
seem to hit the nail on the head every time. We all
know that the reverse is true in the lives of many
men, They are prone to miss hitting the nail, no
matter whether they enter profession, business or
become solicitors Even at farming they unfort-
unate and in few years they are forced to quit,
leaving everything covered with mortgages If some
one were to die and will them fortune it would slip
thru their fingers.
On the other hand, there are those who seldom
know what it is to be unfortunate to meet disaster
after disaster, and counted down and out. This
may in many cases, be due to superior mental or
ganization-but in cases it is pure luck. What
ever they turn their hand to- they succeed in hitting
the nail on the head. If they enter Wall ST., they
become Napoeons Of finance; if they enter business
they become captains Of industry; and fthey become
authors they are usually credited with writing the
book Of the year Perhaps the old adage is uethat
ut is better to be born lucky than rich.
