Insane Asylum Has Fire.

Woodward, Okla-Six hundred in- sane persons were in danger of death Sunday afternoon when blaze. start ing from a prairie fire, destroyed sev- eral buildings of the State Insane Asylum at Fort Supply near here.
 The fire broke out in the laundry buil1ng shortly after the noon meal and the inmates had been returned to their quarters The asylum fire department was ordered out and a fearful panic among the patients was narrowly averted.

need. other faithful feathered folk min istered to him at the darker moment of Calvary. Then it was that the voice of the pitying turtle dove grew so plaintive that never has it re- gained its lost happy notes. Not only did the swallow perch on the cross and twitter tender words of consolation, but also in its small, sweet way al leviated the sufferers pain by pulling out a spine from the crown of thorns. And the stork flying orer the cross loitered on the wing to call down: "Stryk!" "Stryk!" - Strengthen" Strengthen"
 In certain old English gardens, there Is a little spotted-leafed plant with deep blue flowers and red buds, called "Mary's Tears" for in the beginning this grew on Calvary-its flower the blue of the Mother Mary's eyes, the weeping, and the leaves tear-stained with her grief.
 And in the old English garden, too, is found the rosemary that puts forth new blossoms every Friday as though to embalm the body of the dead Christ
 Wonderful Passion Flower.
 In the passion flower the reverent imagination has discovered not a cross alone, but also the pillar of scourging, the nails. thu crown of thorns, and even spots to mark the five wounds of the crucifed body.
 The Spaniard will tell you that the aspen trembles because that was the wood of the cross. However this may be, there is a delightful old legend concerning the tree out of which the cross was made.
 Aged Adam, weary of toll and sin and eager for death, sent to the angel guarding the Tree of Life to beg a boon. The messenger brought back the welcome promise that Adam should die in three days, and the added gif; of three small seeds which were mys- teriously to be placed under the dead mans tongue before burial
 From these seeds, the quaint narra- tive continues. sprang three saplings that later united, three in one, sym- bol of the Trinity. With this mirac- ulous tree Moses and David each wrought many wonders. But King Solomon, his whole heart set upon the building of the temple. had the tree cut down, intending it for magnifi- cent beam. Strive as the workmen would, however, nowhere would the beam fit, and, cast aside, it was later used as bridge across a nearby stream. When the queen of Sheba made her notable visit she refused to

 But if a Judas among the birds be- trayed the Master of men in this hour of

Abijah, son of Rehoboam, covet. ing the precious setting, had it taken | down, and after appropriating the metal had the wood buried deep in the earth-so deep, in fact, that a we'll was dug over it, the famous Pool of Bethesda, the tree of mercy at the bottom giving healing qualities to the waters. Finally, as the time appoint. ed approached. the tree rose and float ed on the surface, and the Jews took 1t and made it into the cross upon which the Christ was crucified.
 Wood of the Cross.
 AS some claim the aspen was the wood of the cross, others select the weeping willow for the tree upon which Judas hanged himself.
 There is an old legend as sinister as the fatalistic Dedipus myth that claims that before the birth of Judas his mother dreamed that her child would murder his father and betray his God for money To prevent this tragedy, the babe was put in a chest and cast upon the sea, but was rescued and adopted by king.
 According to tradition, Pontius P1. late as well as Judas committed sui eide, for upon his return to Rome so indignant was the emperor over the governors actions while in Jerusa- lem that he cast him into prison. a humiliation too great for so weak a spirit to bear.
 Weird is the legend told concerning the restless, tormented ghost of him who could wash his hands but not his conscience of offense.
 The body Of the suicide was first ] cast into the Tiber, but so turbulent were the storms that Immediately fol lowed that it was taken out of the river, carried to Gaul. and thrown into i the Rhone.

congress which ended last March a. a
law was enacted which makes it penal
offense to issue or circulate any note.
check, memorandum, token or other
obligation for a sum less than one dol
lar. The penalty prescribed for the
preparation of this enormity is fine
which must not exceed $500 or imprison-
ment for period not more prolonged
than six months.
This is about the most fragrant ex-
ample of oppressive and preposterous
legislation that has yet been brought to
the public notice and it could only have
reached a place on the statute book
through inadvertence. Had it attracted
any attention during its progress
through congress it must have been
promptly killed by the ridicule it would
have provoked, while it must be as
sumed that the president signed it in a
moment of distraction without clearly
experimenting its import.
To create artificial crimes and INSIDE
meanors is an undesirable proceeding at
all times which nothing short of some
urgent public need can justify or ex-
cuse. But what public need requires
that the making of a check for a less
sum than one dollar be prohibited?
That is a matter of merely private con-
Germ Of which no legislature has any
call to take notice. 1t is not customary
to write a check for less than dollar
and most people would not think of do
ing so, but if the banks do not object,
why anyone else should mind does not
at first appear.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES:
Entered at the Elk City, Idaho, Post
Office for transmission through the
mails as second-class matter.

The last congress evidently could see
no way of putting stop to use Of a
check book by the person of small
means, so a penalty was created for
abuse of the privilege. Probably there
are so many corporation men in the
United States senate dealing with
figures of great denomination that that
august body can not see the need of
check that pays for merely the neces-
saries of life.

The net earnings of Wells, Fargo &
Co. last year amounted to 80 per
cent of the SO, 900, 900 capital during the
fiscal year ended July 81, as compared
with 5O.97 in 1908, 1892 in 1907 and
1881 in 1906. The dear public who are
used to paying any old sum, oftimes
two or three times more than at others,
would not be surprised if some time the
net earnings exceed the capital.

Don't be a crouch. If you have the
habit get out Of it. DIR. Charles Nc
Cormick addressing a medical society
in Chicago, says that a man who cult
Yates a Crouch is on will become an alb
normal being. His mentality will be-
come warped, "and by the time his
crouch reaches the acute stage he may
properly be classed as mentally unbal-
anced." Moreover, when disease at
tacks a person chronic ill-temper will
prove an obstacle IN the way Of recoy-
cry. Therefore, cheer up.
