GIVES A WRONG IMPRESSION.
Warden Haskell Says Picture of Peni
Tertiary Life Is False.

Another Saturday Evening Post
story has fallen under the condemna-
ton of the Kansas officials. This time
it is not a wheat story but the story
entitled Number 9009,' which pur-
ports to be history of life in a
states prison.
81 have read several installments of
that story said Warden Haskell of
the Kansas penitentiary today. land l
must say that 1 don't know of any in
stitution of the kind in the country.
1t may be that there were such peni-
tentiaries a good many years ago. but
it has all been changed. That system
of handling prisoners does not prevail
nowadays
1.-The spy system does not exist in
the way described in that article. or
course we can't allow the prisoners to
arrange to make a break for liberty
all at once. We must break up such
combinations. But 1 do not encour-
age the prisoners to tell tales on each
other, and neither do my officers. If
a prisoner wants to come and tell me
something, listen to it, and profit by
the information. if it is of any value,
but 1 do nothing to encourage the
system"

TO MAKE JOHNSON RUN.
That Seems to Be Determination of
Minnesota Democrats.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 19.-Not-
withstanding Governor John A. John
sons positive and oft repeated declara-
ton that he would not be a candidate
for denomination. which declaration he
has lately coupled with the threat that
If he was named against his will the
convention would have to do it's work
over again, the probabilities were that
the convention which assembled today
would ignore the governors wishes.
Yesterday when told that he might be
made the nominee despite his protests,
Governor Johnson said that If he was
nominated the ticket would be without
head for he would not lift a finger to
further his candidacy. 1t was thought
that If this emphatic declaration had its
effect that ]. G.. Armson, mayor of
saltwater, Mimi, would undoubtedly
be the nominee.
Mayor Armson stated this morning,
however. that under no circumstances
would he be a candidate. He said he
regarded it as Governor Johnson S
duty to answer the call of the party
and make the race, even at a great
personal sacrifice.
Congressman Hammond. who has
been a conspicuous factor in the situa-
ton has during the past week been
eliminated by his declination to run.
With Armson and Hammond both
out, 1t looked today as though the only
course open to the convention was to
nominate Johnson and take a chance
on his accepting.

GREAT RACE AT EMPIRE CITY.
Nimbus. Carrying 100 Pounds. Makes
New Worlds Record

Empire City, N. Y, Aug. ia new
worlds record for six furlongs for cir
cular tracks was made at the Empire
City track when Nimbus, carrying 100
pounds. won the first race in ILL 1-5.
The time clips two-fifths of a second
off the old mark made by Roseben,
carrying lat pounds at Belmont park, a
couple of years ago.
Nimbus' performance was not as
good as that of Roseben, for he had
considerable weight off. The track and
weather conditions were ideal for rec
ord breaking. The start of the six fur
longs race was down a slight hill and
as they swung into the stretch another
gradual grade was encountered, over
which 1t is easy for good horses to
make fast time. Tom McGrath broke
In front and ran the first furlong in IL
seconds. He led at the quarter by
length and half in 81 As seconds.
The third furIong was covered in SO 2-5
seconds. Here he began to stop and
Nimbus then took up the running,
coming to the half mile in AS 3-5 Sec
onds He swung into the stretch with
a lead of one and a half lengths and
passed the five furlongs in Isl 3-5 and
finished out the full distance in Ill 1-5.
He was nicely in hand at the end. Tom
McGrath tired badly from the early
pace and finished outside of the money.
Spooner, at to 1, Won the Dun
WOOdie stakes.

FRIENDLY FIGHT.
That Is What John w. Kern Would
Like to See This Year.

Indianapolis Aug. 19.-At the Old
Settlers reunion John w. Kern,
Democratic nominee for the vice
presidency, made a short address in
which he said he favored a campaign
of Friendship"
I'VE all love the same old starry
banner, and remembering our love for
the flag let us go into the campaign
as friends; let us fight the campaign
as friends and let us come out of 1T as
friends
Mr.. Kern had pleasant things to say
about President Roosevelt. He re-
lated a sorry which greatly amused his
audience. 1t was the incident of his
meeting an old Republican friend one
day.
do you like Roosevelt" asked his
friend.
II like him pretty WELL" said Kern
land by the way how do you like
him?'
''Well," replied the friend, I'D like
him a sight better ir you didn't
like him so we'll"

CRAzED BY TOBACCO.
Woman Chewed to Stop Aching of a
Tooth.

New York, Aug. ia piece of chew
ing tobacco inserted in hollow of a
tooth help to send Mary Lewis to
the Psychopathic ward of Bellevue
and to bring her before a city magis-
trate on the technical charge of in
sanity. There her mental condition
was passed upon and her release or
dered.
The patient had never been addicted
to the use of tobacco until two weeks
ago, when one of the teeth in her lower
left jaw began to ache and was ad-
vised to buy a plug of tobacco, bite off
a generous portion of and hold it in
her mouth. She did SO and within three
days she had acquired the habit.
The ache disappeared, but as it went
away Mary heard strange voices. A
graphophone with a strident voice call
ed upon her to be good, and many
children, all in white, numbering mil
lions, sang songs and recited verses,
until she became unable to sleep She
kept on chewing the tobacco and the
more she chewed the louder became the
tones of the graphophone.
Into such a condition did she drift
that it was deemed advisable to have
her undergo an examination in the
psychopathic ward of Bellevue
where her case was diagnosed as one
of acute mania. giving the use of tobac-
co as the exciting and principal contri-
buting cause. The gradual deprivation
of the tobacco resulted in restoring her
to a nearly normal mental condition.
