ton Of Customers.

When Mark Twain wrote "Pudd'n-
head Wilson" 1t is doubtful IL he real
lied into what general vogue this
novel form of Identification would
come, and that its commercial value
and utility would be incalculable. For
a number of years thumb prints have
been adopted as a means of identity
ing criminals, but 1t remained for the
First National bank of Cheyenne,
Wyo., to adopt this method for the
Identification of customers. The bank
has a large number of Japs, Greeks
and other foreigners as patrons, these
being employed in the railroad serv-
ice But few of these can write the
English language, and some of them
not even their own. AS a result, each
depositor is required to make an i'm.
preston of his thumb, which is filed
away for record, taking the place of
the customary signature.

COMPARING Two Generations.

DR.. William II. p. Faunce, president
OF Brown university, in the course OF
an address at Cooper union one of a
series of public lectures, said; THE
young people of today as compared
with those of so years ago, are chief

tention and original thinking. They
cannot, or at least they usually do not
think as clearly, as patiently and as
cogently as did their fathers. They
do not as quickly distinguish the ir
relevant from the pertinent, the ker
mel from the husk, as the men of the
last generation" DR.. Faunce said

A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
Doubts as Whether City Elections
Can Be Held and De Legal. A
Paving Company in Oklahoma
Issues a Manifest.

Oklahoma City. March MANY
candidates are preparing to make
campaign for election to city offices
here this spring and Mayor Mcssen-
baugh has already issued his pro
clamation calling for the election to
be held April ? But in spite of all
such preparations there rests in the
minds of many serious doubts as to
whether such election will be legal,
and whether such officers elected
can perform any function OF their
office without laying It liable to be-
ing attacked in the courts.
The question as to the legality OF
such an election Is becoming more
serious II was said today that one
OF the paving companies. one whic
has done a large amount OF work Tor
the city. and which has contracts FOR
more. has warned the present admin
istration that It would not do a
stroke Of work II the election was
held. because the officers would
have no legal right to issue warrants
for pay. and that bonds could not
be negotiated. Il is the opinion that
the same effect will be experienced
in other departments where public
improvements are contemplated, or
that will be finished under the ad-
ministration of the coming election.
The provision OF the deficiency
bill by which county elections were
nut off until next fall, when the new
state offers are elected so far as
the wording OF the measure Is con
cerned. obviously applied similarly
to city elections, because it does not
specify any particular officers. but
does say "al offices provided under
the laws Of the territory City ON
ces are provided under the laws oil
the territory. just the same as county
or state offices. But the provision
specifies that congressional, legisla'
tive and state officers may be elect
ed at the time of voting on the con
stitution.

LANDSLIDE.
Milwaukee Passenger Train Has
Narrow Escape From
Sliding Dirt.

Sioux Falls, May 15-The Milwau.
kee passenger from Sioux Falls tc
Sioux City which loft the local station
at f2 50 Monday, ran into landslide
at point two miles this side of Chats,
worth, and only through the watchful-
ness of the engineer and fireman was a
bad accident averted.
The train was making the customary
speed of about forty miles an hour,
when rounding a sharp curve around
the bluffs at the point mentioned, the
fireman who was on the left hand side
of the engine, and consequently got
view of the track ahead before the en-
gineer could, observed that the track
was covered with several feet of dirt
He gave the alarm and Engineer Gala
CHER, who was at the throttle, put on
the air breaks and reversed his en-
gine. The engineer and fireman, OBJ
serving that the engine would hit the
obstruction, jumped, and escaped in
jury. 1t was lucky they did so. As
the engine plowed into the pile of dirt

momentum of the train had been re-
duced to such an extent that not q
passenger was at all injured. The
shock of the engine striking the dirt,
however, Jared loose another section
of the bluff which Immediately slid
down and overturned the engine and
buried it beneath several feet of earth.
Had the engineer and fireman re-
manned at their post they would un-
doubtedly both nave been killed.
The accident was most fortunate
one so far as loss of life or injuries to
the crew and passengers was con
cerned.
1t was necessary to send to Sioux
City for steam shovel TO remove the
earth which is being done as rapidly as
possible. The track will probably be
cleared by night and put in shape for
travel. AT present the traffic between
this city and Sioux City is carried on
by way of Canton to Marion Junction
and then down over the Running Water
branch to Scotland, and then over the
Jim River line through Yankton and
Elk Point to Sioux City.

| held in the state, the second annual
meet of the State High School Athletic
association, which is to be held in Yer
million on Friday and Saturday of this

the state will arrive, Thursday afternoon
and evening to be Oh hand for the first
events of the meet, which begin at 8
o clock Friday morning The last re-
port from Secretary Mcdonald, of Sioux
Falls, showed that more than eighty
athletes had already entered for the
meet, and it would be no surprise If
twice that number We're on hand for
the opening event
The fact that the only expense con-
nected with the meet for the athlete is
his car fare makes it a great deal easier
for many of the young men to come.
They are assured Of free entertainment
after reaching the city, likewise fare
and third on the railroads. The uni
versity has made all arrangements for
taking care of tie visitors, and the
Commercial club has also come forward
with assistance
The preliminaries viii begin Friday
morning and continue throughout the
day A NUMBER of finals will also be
pulled off Friday afternoon, and on
Saturday morning all unfinished events
will be taken care of A banner will
be given to the school winning the
highest number of points, and indi-
vidual medals will be awarded to the
winners of events. During the meet
