FOOL BORN EVERY MINUTE"
Durham Man Turns Knowledge of
 Adage to His Own Profit.

Middletown, Dec 10.-Frank H., Barton of Durham having learned that there was fool born every min ute, proceeded at once to put his knowledge to use. He inserted a modest ad in number of papers throughout the country offering to send twenty-five useful articles for 25 cents. The quarters came rolling in so fast that he had to hire a girl to assist him in opening his mail. To each one who, in response to his ad- yertisement sent him quarter, he sent twenty-five pins. The returns weer not enough from this scheme, SO he inserted another advertisement of- fering to send for 50 cents a method of getting rich quick. Many people seemed anxious to learn his method of getting rich. The answer was "Work hard"
 The size of his mail attracted the attention of the Durham people and as a result postotfice inspectors have been there for the past few days in vestigating Barton's methods. Noth- ing can be done about the matter lt is said. Barton was at one time em- ployed as a cigarmaker in New York but after his marriage to a Durham girl he settled in that town.

Divorces Live Together.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Oct. Civ
ing together peacefully for eleven
years after their divorce, the grass
widow acting as salaried housekeep-
er for her former husband and both
contributing to the raising of their
daughter, now IS, is the story OF
James and Olga Huston of this city
For eleven years after the divorce
decree the couple lived contentedly,
and all was merry as marriage
bell, until one day recently, Huston,
alleged his housekeeper forgot
their unmarried condition and as
sumed the wifely prerogative of
making him the target of the dinner
dishes and slashing his scalp with a
carving knife. Just for that he had
her arrested and in police court told
the story of his matrimonial career.
The case will come up again Mon
day, but it is rumored that the Hus-
tons have effected a reconciliation,
and that Mrs. Huston has solemnly
promised TO remember that she is
only a housekeeper and not wife,
and hence not privileged to break
dishes or smash the furniture.

THE LEASE SYSTEM.

The biennial report of the peni-
Tertiary commissioners for Texas
which has just been submitted to
Governor Campbell is a document
that should be studied by every
member of the next legislature
Texas is SO large state and it's
penitentiary system so important,
that nothing but the best manage
ment can prevent little abuses from
growing into big evils.
The penitentiary board recon-
mends as has been noted before in
these columns, that the convict lease
system in Texas be abolished and its
reasons are sound, intelligent and
worthy of respect. The report says:
The system as it prevails in Texas
is doubtless of the mildest form, be-
cause the state not only furnishes the
food and clothing for the convicts,
but actually works them thru its
own paid officers. Nevertheless, con-
tinues the report, the system at its
best furnishes the opportunity for
abuses and because no common
wealth can afford to make the well
fare of the prisoners subservient to
the financial feature of its prison
system righteous public system
has decreed a change along humane
lines Many considerations, it is
pointed out, forbid an instant change
of the policy and methods in this
respect, chief among them being the
furnishing of healthful employment,
the reduction to minimum of com
petition with the free labor.
The commissioners believe the
state farm is the solution of the
problem, 1t furnishes healthy EN-
ployment and is a financial success.
Success with the plantation under
taking is reported due to the selec-
ton of competent and experienced
men for its management. BY extend
ing the cultivated area. says the re-
port the number of convicts under
lease will be further reduced.
This is clear sane and unanswer-
able argument. Georgia's example
ought to be enough. The next legis-
lature should abolish the lease sys-
tem.-Fort Worth Telegram.

Workman, Texas, Oct. 6,-Satur-
day night at an early hour Lemons
Clark, a negro of near Kirven, liv-
ing on George Mays place, decided
to do a quick-route stunt to MeXia
from this place. He mounted his
mule and lit out down the center of
the Houston and Texas Central
tracks for his destination. Cattle
guards nor bridges barred his prog
ress until he got about three miles
south of town, when train hove in
sight The negro was intoxicated, but
the mule wasn't, so the latter whirled
around and was hit by the train. A

and when he reached the spot he
found the mule dead, but no negro.

AN EXPENSIVE SPORT
Fifty Million Dollars for Fox Hunt
ing in England.

ing III FlnKlAbu.
Sydney Brooks contributes to the
current Harper's Weekly an interest
ing account OF the enormous expense
of fox hunting in the Shtres, the
name by which the best hunting dis
trict of England is known. There
are probably in the United Kingdom
100000 hunters, he says, that cost
their owners originally not less than
70,000,000 or $50, 900, 900, and
that involve yearly expenditure of
at least forty More than one hunt in
the Shires spends $4,000 a year,
and great many spend over $780,
600. A well known NJ. F. II. has put
the cost of maintaining popular
pack at $4,000 a year for every hunt
ing day The compensation funds, the
wages and clothing of the horsemen
and whippers-in, the grooms and
the kennel men, and the expenditure
on forage and meat for horse and
hound, when added together make
it appear probable that the direct
outlay on fox hunting is hardly less
than $50,000,000 or $50, 100000 a
wear
