Leasing Pistols

A cowboy walked into hardware store in Austin, Tex, and asked for a good SiX-Shooter.
 "How much is it?'' he asked when he had looked it over,
 'I can't sell it to you," the deal CT replied, but 1 will lease it to you for fifty years for $l5."
 "This is dad blamed funny kind of a Joint," the cowboy said, "I don't want to lease a gun; want to own it"
 He started to walk out, but was called back by the dealer, who eX- plained that the last legislature passed law which imposes tax of 50 per cent. on all the gross proceeds from the sale of pistols.
 If I sold you this siX-Shooter for $l5 I would have topay the state a tax of $75O," the hardware man explained q can lease it to you for fifty years and won't have to pay the state any thing"
 The cowboy saw the point and leased the gun.
 The law which was enacted for the purpose of taxing pistols out of exist ence in Texas has been in effect more than nine months. During that period only two pistols have been sold in Tex as, according to the tax receipt records of the state comptroller'S ofice.-P.-I.

Russian Prisons

Prison statistics just published in Russia show better than anything else how far from normal the country is.
 During the last three months 766 death sentences have been passed. The empire contains accommodation for IF, ,l3S prisoners, while the number of persons incarcerated is 167S3O. A horrible condition of things prevails in Kieff jail, where there are only 69O cells, whereas the number of prisoners is 2,207.
 In Odessa the prisoners have SO4 cells and l,6lO inmates. Hence prison CTS are obliged to sleep in corridors on the floor, while many cannot lie down at all, but sleep in sitting posture.

May Be Payer This Year

Dawsou-Hubbard creek, tributary of Gates, in the lower Fortymile coun- try, promises to be payer this season. James Shand,, who is on No. above discovery on Hubbard, and has ar rived here direct from the creek, brings word that Billy Hayburst, the discoverer. has an average of better than four cents to the pan on dis covery.
 The depth to bedrock on the Hay burst claim is nine feet. The owner is preparing to shovel in this season. Shand says there is plenty of water on the creek, and that the fall is splendid.
 Steve McPhee has boiler on No. 2 below and will represent for himself and a number of other claim owners on the creek.

 The apparatus is similar to that used for the telegraphic transmission of photographs. He utilizes the proper ties of selemum. His method was in- spired by the development of the cine metograph.

Plight of Alaska Indians

Seattle-Forty per cent of the adult Indians of Alaska are suffering from tuberculosis, while practically all the children are suffering from some dis ease or other, is the report of Captain Paul c. Hutton, assistant surgeon, United States Army, who has arrived in Seattle from Fort William H. Sew ard with a detachment of the Tenth Infantry. Capt. Hutton, when he went north last Summer, had instructions to make special investigation of the Alaska natives. He will go east at once and make special report on con- ditions as he found them to the Con- missioner of Indian Affairs. "Condi- tions among the Alaska Indians," said Captain Hutton, "are the worst | have ever seen. They are indiscribable. The natives have no conception of cleanliness, and from habits of con- sumptives in the schools and mission, many children are tubercular from birth. The only salvation lies in sending instructors and medical men north and completing the Indians to observe sanitation"

Half the Coal Is Wasted

Prof. J. A. Holmes of the United States geological survey, declared that under the present system 50 per cent. of the natural coal supply of the country is wasted. A mine, he de- clares is invariably abandoned after the high grade fuel is taken out, thus permanently preventing the extraction of the low grade coal. AS an exam pie of the heavy loss thus entailed, he cited an instance where only four feet of 2l foot vein was mined. The con- sumption of high grade coal is enor- nous, the Pennsylvania road alone using 10000 tons daily for locomotives. That means that this one railroad sys- tenn consumes annually, for motive power, 14,6O00OO tons.

Heroic Treatment

After experienced physicians had declared that even amputation of a leg might not save the life of Police man Coles Carpenter, and priest had been summoned to administer the last rites of the church, Dr, Raymond Sulli- van, young interne in St. Mary's hos pital, succeeded, by the alternate bak- ing and freezing procesS,i in saving Car penter's life and leg.
 Dr. Sullivan "baked' Carpener's leg in a heat from l5O to 29O degrees to in- duce rush of blood to the limb. He then plunged it into an ammonia ice tank to drive the blood out quickly and carry away the impurities which had caused modification. The treat ment proved effective, and early in April Carpenter could use his leg with the aid of crutcheS. Last night he took long walk without the crutches. His leg will soon be normal.-New York Herald.

S5.OOO,OOO for Coal

Washington-Approximately 5,OO0,- 900 is the estimate of the cost of the coal consumed by the battleship fleet when it will have finished its cruise around the world. The estimate of the cost of the coal necessary to move the fleet from San Francisco to Hampton roads by way of Honolulu, Manila, and the Suez canal has been reported by the chief of the bureau of equipment as amounting to $2,O39,OOo.
 The navy department has been in receipt of an official communication from the Australian government offer ing to furnish without cost the coal required during the visit of the com mand in Australian waters. Of course the government could not think of ac- cepting such an offer and arrange ments have been made to use Ameri- can coal for the entire cruise.

About 100 pleasure seekers from
Clifton and Morenci took advantage
of the excursion to Douglas last Fri
bay evening to witness the grand
championship ball anne between Cliff
ton and Morenci on the Fourth of
July, hut from reports it was not
much of a championship game, the
victory going to the credit of Mo-
renci by the one sided score of l6-4
Those who witnessed the game report
that the wind and dust and the poor
condition of the diamond rendered it
Utmost impossible to play ball at all.
At times the spectators could not see
the ball players and a single was
good for three bases most any time
| the batters could connect. Morenci

worked his best and struck out quite

day for Clifton and. the boys could
not play ball at all, several of them
getting more bad marks in the one
game than they have secured in all
previous games this season.
| The result of the game came as Il
great surprise to the Clifton people,
who expected close score and the
victory in favor of Clifton. Both
teams were lined up the same As in
the Dawson games, and under ordinary
circumstances the Douglas people
should have witnessed d irst-class
game.
Those who.attended the celebration
at Douglas returned home well

The board of supervisors have
ordered the appointment of registra-
tion officers throughout the county
md citizens will soon have an Oppor-
tunity to qualify themselves a. legal
voters in the approaching election
All citizens should make it a point t.
register and take more interest il,
the election of county officers. They
owe it to themselves as well as the
heavy taxpayers. All justices of the
peace are entitled to the appoint
ment as registra tion officers, although
in former years it has been customary
to appoint other persons. County
Recorder Simms has announced that
he intends to confne appointments to
justices of the peace, provided they
are able to attend the work properly.
The action of registration officers
will have a great deal to do with the
number of votes cast at the next
election. Prospects are good for a
a much larger registration this year,
as the population seems more steady
now than eyer before.

July Fourth Accident

The eldest son of II. H Dyer,
superintendent of the Shannon
mines, met with an accident on the
Fourth that might have been very
serious. Master Dyer and a couple
of other boys were engaged in firing
some fireworks and had some black
powder. The weather was a little
cloudy and they decided that they
would go toto a tunnel and finish
their fun. A spark flew into the
loose powder and it exploded, setting
fire to Master Dyer's clothes. He
was badly burned before the other
boys could extinguish the fire and
their hands were burned also. Dyer :
burns were painful but not serious.
