The real pioneer Of the western
country is he who came here In an
early day bringing with him some
supplies which the settlers and ma
lives needed, and opened a store
where these hardy sons and daughters
of the new west could trade theii
pelt, for the necessities Of life. A
man who would leave a settled coun-
try and trek 1000 to $500 miles west
Of where the railroad stopped and
open a store deserved to succeed. He
fought the fight that made the west
a possible abiding place. The dangers
the settlers In a e country encoun

OF the red mans making. He could

"JACK The PlNCHER''

BELLINGHAM, Dec. 30-"Jack,
the Pincher," a new sort of a tor
mentor, has been operating in this
city for at least two months. The
fanatic operates after the fashion
of footpad. A woman Is spotted
on the streets at night. She is fol.
lowed quietly until she reaches
some dark place, then the pincher
hurries boldly to her side, grasps
her by the arm and as the blood OF
the victim begins to freeze in her
veins and she gets a stronger grip
on her purse, the fellow quickly
reaches down and pinches her on
various parts of the body; then,
with chuckle Of glee, he makes off
in the darkness, paying no more at
tention to the purse which she may
be clutching tightly in her hand.
The majority of victims declare
they would much rather be robbed
than be forced to submit to such
treatment

MARK TWALNS FACTORY BUSTED BUT HIS
HALRPIN WORKS ARE ALL. TO THE GOOD

Special Correspondence to The Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-Then, too,
there is the Mark Twain of bust
ness. In addition to adding SO
much to the gayety of civilization
the great humorist has chased the
elusive dollar in the devious ways
of commerce. Not much has been
said of the commercial side Of M.
Twain, but he feels that the ex-
perience has been mighty eventful.
Mark Twain's first business ven
ture took the form of mining and
the scene was laid in Nevada in
1865, when he was 30 eyears of age.
Then he turned to lecturing. Only
one kind of miners turn from min
ing to lecturing and they are not
the fellows who create Tonapahs
and Goldfields.
His next appearance outside the
literary field was in the role of an
inventor. He devised a scrapboOk
that was hailed with Joy by all the
nation and many foreigners. For
several years the sales of the scrap
books amounted to 100000 annually,
but nobody ever heard that Mark
Twain made fortune out of them.
In 1884 he founded the publishing
| house of c. l.. Webster & Co., which
| was destined to cast heavy
| shadow on his life. The firm was
published the Memoirs of Gen. U.
S. Grant" In 1895 it collapsed and
the wreck was complete. Mark
! Twain at 60 years was penniless,
in poor health and 100000 in debt
His real liability was about $4,000,
but he at once declared his inten-
ton of paying every dollar. A bust
ness man might declare his in
solvency and start free again.
| But | am not business man."
wrote Mark Twain at the time, "and
| honor is harder master than the
law. 1t cannot compromise for less
than 100 cents on the dollar and it's
debts never outlaw" He expected
to pay all in four years and then at
"a start anew for himself. He did
it in less than that from a lecturing
tour and book on travel.
But now he has been stung again.
AS president of the Plasman Co. of
| America, which manufactured milk
products, he has admitted the in
solvency of that concern. His per-
sonal loss is $4,000 and he declares
that he was swindled out of $12,500

TO REORGAN|zE
SCHOOLS

The code commission for the re-
vision of the state school laws has
tentatively adopted. measures
which affect fundamentally the or
ganization of the. educational sys
tenn of the state. .
The proposals range from the re.
organization Of the state board OF
education at the apex of the sys'
tenn to the Redistribution Of the
school districts Of the state. They
include also the appointment Of su.
pervisors for the high schools, and
a system of more intimate supervi.
sion of the rural district schools.
The proposed reorganization OF
the state board Of education leaves
the membership OF the board at
four as. at the present time, but
specifies the classes of educational
activity from which each member
must be chosen, instead of leaving
the decision entirely to the COVER.
nor, as at present.
The governor is still to make the
appointments to the board, but the
new regulations would provide that
one of the four appointees must be
a city superintendent, one county
superintendent, one a representa-
tive of the higher educational in.
situations of the state and the 9th.
er an officer in one of the high
schools of the state.
