Penitentiary Board in Session.

Following the agitation of the bad flour which it is alleged has been in use in the penitentiary the board, which is now in session. has ordered all bad flour to be destroyed, and new supply purchased. After the flour question had been disposed of the board took up the matter of the education of the inmates of the reform school. By the statute, passed at the last session of the legislature creating the reform school it was provided that the boys and girls confined should receive three months education each year. It was the belief of some of should be established Immediately and Secretary of State Ludwig answered the objections of the oppo- nents of the plan who contended 1t is alleged, that for the balance of the year the inmates would be required to work and go to school later. The dis cussion was long on this proposition, but finally was settled by the unani- nous vote of the members in the appointment of L. Perry as special instructor of the school at salary of $50 per month. MT. Perry's name was placed before the board because of his qualifications for the post, hay ing been employed in the reform school at Nashville, Tenn. The appoint ment was made at the suggestion of Superintendent Chestnut. Dr. R. L. Russell, present penitentiary physl- clan, was appointed physician of the reform school and will receive $25 per month as salary for the additional duties. The board passed upon the awarding of the contracts for supplies for the month of September and adjourned to meet in special session September 12, when the retention to his position of the superintendent of cooks, the lighting of the reform school with electricity and the con- sideration of the parole of several prisoners will be acted upon.

A Foine Bird.

An Irishman who wasn't much of a hunter went out to hunt one day, and the first thing he saw to shoot at was blue jay sitting saucily on the top of fence. He blazed away at the bird and then walked over to pick it up. What he happened to find there was dead frog, which he raised care fully at arms length, looking at it with

Action Caused Speculation.

The action of the State Charities Board in adjourning without vote on the matter of resembling the former vote by which E. c. Lucas was ap- pointed superintendent of the Blind School, has caused considerable dis cussion at the state house. Prof. Futrall will hold office as superinten- dent until October 1, when he is SUD- posed to retire, and MT. Lucas to suc- ceed him. As the board now stands, there are three members who are for Prof Futrall, and four fer MT. Lucas. J. c. Williamson, who holds the balance of power, is desirous of removing to Texas, and has demand ed of Acting Governor Pindall, 1t is said, the right to name his successor on the board, which Governor Pin dali absolutely refuses to do. MT. Williamson, in the event of not be- ing able to designate his successor on the board has stated, it is said, that he will remain in Arkansas so that the present controlling majority may be retained in power.

A LOSING OIL CONTRACT.

LOS ANGELES, November 30.-The
Graciosa Oil Company of San Fran
cisco has been left to fill the Japan
crude oil contract of 100000 barrels
from its own resources, as the Union
and Associated oil companies have
realized that the higher prices certain
to go into effect shortly would make
it necessary to pass up a large posi-
BILE profit if they took advantage of
the one-third option each holds on the
contract.
Oil men say the Graciosa can not
fill the contract from its own wells by
nearly half, and stands to lose $1,000,
600 if forced to purchase oil to fill it.
It is doing it's utmost to escape the
terms of the contract but an IRON
bound clause to which Japan holds the
company makes it impossible to with
draw without heavy loss. The contract
was made year ago at AZ cents, and
oil has since risen to ST in the Santa
Maria field, from which the Graciosa
draws, and will go higher, it is be-
lieYed.
A large cargo of $4,000 barrels has
been sent to Japan. filled partially by
the Associated. The Graciosa must do
the rest alone.

WHY THE MOANA
STAYED IN PORT

When the s. s. Moana arrived from
the Colonies on Wednesday last, dock
ing at half-past eight in the evening,
a notice was posted aboard that she
would sail for Victoria and Vancouver
at eleven o'clock that same night. She
did not sail, however, for twelve hours
following that time and the reason was
a vigorous protest entered by the pas
sengers. 1t is advertised by the Cana
Australian company that passen-
gers by their boats will have a mini
mum Of seven hours of daylight ashore
at Honolulu and the passengers insist
ed on this A committee Of seven was
chosen to wait on Captain Morrisby
and inform him that unless his boat
was held in port here for every minute
of the seven hours of daylight letters
complaining about the line would be
sent to all the Australasian newspapers.
The captain promptly crawled down and
the Moana did not sail until the next
morninp. giving the passengers a chance
to see the city of the beauties of which

FABLE OF THE PANsy.
Entire Family May Be Traced In Flow
 er's Gay Petals.

Lovers of this pretty flower may be interested in the fable concerning 1t. The blossom has five petals and five sepals. In most pansies, especially of the earlier and less highly developed varieties, two of the petals are plain in color and three are gay. The two plain petals have single sepal each. and the third. which is the largest of all, has two sepals. The fable is that the pansy represents family. consist ing of husband. wife and four daugh- ters, two of the latter being step-chil- dren of the wife. The plain petals are the step-children, with only one chair; the two small gay petals are the daughters, with chair each. and the large gay petal is the wife, with two chairs. To find the father one must strip away the petals until the stamens and pistils are bare. They have . fanciful resemblance to an old man with flannel wrap round his neck, his shoulders upraised and his feet in . bathtub. In France the pansy is uni versally called the step-mother.

Does your back ache? Do you get up lame in the morning? Do you feel dull and tired? Does 1t hurt you to bend over, to lift anything, to get up from a chair? Do you have sud de.i catches" or stitches of pain in the back? Does a dull, throbbing ache settle in the small of your back and bother you day and night? Do you sometimes feel that you simply cannot straighten up?
 If you do have backache. .Ibe care full not to make the very common mistake of treating it as a muscular trouble. Do not rub the core place with liniment. nor put on plasters. for the seat of the trouble is inside In the kidneys, which lie just be- heath the small of the back, on either tide of the spine.

 A closed carriage pulled up half way down an alley out of noisy bus mess street and stopped at a door way.
 'Is the little chap asleep, Tom kins?" the other man said loudly. Guess he's bit tired. Come along, kid"
 He'll be all right" said MT. Tom kins, stepping out with a small boy in his arms and going quickly in the doorway
 In the small office on the third floor, in the window of which was printed the name of Paul R. Bailey & Co., the small boy was deposited on three chairs. The two men locked the door carefully and turned down the gas to its lowest point without absolutely extinguishing it. Mir. Tomkins wiped his forehead with his cap, and look ing round gave a grunt of profound satisfaction.
 This ain't bad little place." he said approvingly. No one would think of looking for Master Harry Anstruther in city office. The idea is then that I'm to stay here all night with this youngster, is it?"
 That's just the size of it" said MT Bailey. Meanwhile I'll see friend of mine who, tomorrow evening when young Mrs. Anstruther is near mad with anxiety, will call upon her and say: Look here. now, ma'am, give me $25,000 and I can tell you where your boy is."
 Its bit steep said MT. Tomkins. looking thoughtfully at the small boy on the three chairs.
 Master Anstruther was so obedient
