The books drawn from the pris-
on library from month to month
indicate that habits, when once
formed, become fixed. This Is
true in selecting books, as the
number of each kind read during
the month vary but little.
The books selected during the
month of October embraced the
following branches of literature:
Fiction. 1889; Magazines, 355;
History, 1852; Science, 248; Biog-
raphy, 81; Travels, 81; Poetry, 81;

Prison Digit School.

Since the last report of the pris-
on night school the classes have
been thoroughly organized, and
teachers and scholars have settled
down to hard work. There were
IA sessions held during the month
of October.
The membership of the school
at the beginning of the month
was 100; the average attendance
during the month was 159; lowest,
l57, and the highest was 1874.
There are 100 pupils who attend
voluntarily, and so who are COM
PEELED to attend. During the
month, Z pupils we're temporarily
excused, and 5 permanently.
There were IL new scholars en-.
rolled during the past month, and
5 we're discharged from the insti-
tuition. Out of an average at
tendance of 159, five were reported
for breach of institutional rules,
and one for lack of interest in
school work.

and are consideration, still it is
the comparatively recent develop
ment of the ethnologist, that makes
beyond doubt the relationship of
these people.
In the Chautauquan for Deem
Der, 1905, we read Of the original
Chinese driving the abo1igines
into what is today the coast prov
ences." Now who were the "orig-
inar" and who the "aborigines?'
The "aborigines' were earlier ar
rivals from the North, throb of
migration of thousands of years
before the coming of the so-ca.led
original Chinese, had planted
the "aborigines." Many thousands
of years elapse, and Asia becomes
peopled. About $500 years ago,
a relatively high civilization had
assumed form in China and sort
of written record begins.
The thousands Of years con-
sumed in the migrations, are so
many blank pages that may never
be accurately written; but in the
course of time all the great East
ern Continent became peopled,
and 5000 years ago the episode
recorded by Moses in Genesis was
but one of the many vague at
tempts of man to account for his
own FIRST state. BEN.

What was considered to be the
largest rooster in Washington Co.,
was killed recently by "Bill" Alex
ander, who had owned the bird
since he was boy. The Bertillon
measurement showed the rooster
to be forty-seven inches high,
twenty-nine inches around the
belt, had black eyes, and carried
number nine spurs. It was of
the Buff Plymouth Rock variety,
and we were informed that the
bird won SO many blue ribbons at
county fairs that they were stick
ing out of the garnet window at
Mr.. Alexander's home. Bill says
that Mr.. Rooster weighed 16a
pounds dressed, but rumor has it
that Captain Alexander and Bills
better-half also weighed it, and
that the weights of all three to-
tailed 16a pounds. This is incor-
rect, as Bill weighed the rooster
on tine 'sfish scales" which ac-
counts for the heavy weight.

The books are neatly bound and

If some people would think
twice before they did thing, they
would keep out of lots of trouble.
Some people who are not thieves
themselves, never think of calling
everybody else one. I willtell you
of little experience 1 had once
that came pretty near costing me
my life. 1 had been working for
a slab-jawed squint-eyed greaser,
about fifty miles the other side of
the Rio Grande. Nobody could live
with him, so I quit and tried to
get my pay. l had been riding
for him at forty dollars month.
He didn't think he owed me any
thing, and I tried to convince him
that he did. We had small ar
gument, and I brushed the dust
out of his eyes, pulled a wrinkle
or two out of his hip pocket and
kicked him into q corner. All he
did was splash out Spanish cuss
words. / saw there was no pay
there, so l thought I would get
back across the river as quick as
| could and into the United States.
l knew that when I got to ranch
that belonged to this fellows
brother, that | would get my pay.

this greaser by taking his horse

Last Friday we were shown one
of those puzzles that are very hard
to figure out. It consists of a
piece of cardboard that is eight
inches square. The cardboard is
cut into four pieces in such way
that, when placed oblong so as to
be five by thirteen inches, it con-
tains an inch more than it did
when square. The puzzle is very
mystifying, and a very hard nut
to crack.
