PRISONERS WILL SING
FOR NARCOTIC WEED

Baker City.-zFor the purpose of
raising tobacco money which will be
placed in the Kangaroo fund, the
prisoners at the county Jail have ar
ranged to give a program tomorrow
evening, provided the officials will
permit it.
Spectators need not expect to see
the prisoner appear on an elevated
stage, neither will there be spot
light to turn on the men taking part.
But there is considerable vocal talent
housed within the cold pressed steel
bars, and it is like natural gas-must
free itself if possible.
All selections will be rendered
from behind the bars and it is safe
guess If the concert is permitted
that Jailor George Herbert will be
close by to see that the prisoners ex-
ercise decorum throughout the pro-
gram. Ragtime Kelly is probably the
originator Of this novel method Of
procuring tobacco funds, for he has
been on the vaudeville stage for many
years.

Washington, Sept. 16.-What re-
mains of the old French company's
machinery in the Canal zone, amount
ing to thousands of dollars worth, will
be sold by this government as junk,
Every piece of machinery that was in
workable condition, including over a
hundred locomotives, has been utilz-
ed in the work of the American engi-
neers, but there remain thousands of
pounds Of metal that are only good
for breaking up and remolding. Bids
for this junk were opened today and
the material will be turned over to the
highest bidders.

METHUSELAH WAS
NOT OLDEST MAN

London.-Methusela was only rs
years of age, instead of s69, when he
died, while Adam, long reputed to
have been $50 years old at the time
of his death, has had his record re-
duced to rs IA years, if the compu-
tations of the Jewish World" are
proved to be correct.
According to an article in that
publication, one cycle of the moon
was called a year. Succeeding the
month year, five months constituted
a year in the early days of biblical
history
AS no extraordinary change Is re-
corded in the biblical records that
would have reduced mans span of
life eleven twelfths between the days
of Noah and David it is surmised that
only the difference in the span of the
year caused the wide divergence in the
ages of the old patriarchs. Thus Ad-
ans and Methuselah's ages, comput-
ed on the year month basis, would be
rs ga years and Is IA, respectively,
while Abraham's 175 years and Is
aac's 1870, under the five months year
are calculated at 70 and "A years
respectively.
By this arrangement the lives Of
the patriarchs, so long subjects for
argument and disbelief, have been
made to accord with the regulation
span of mans life-three score and
ten years.
It is assumed also that Jacob, while
watching Laban's flocks, discovered
another year, just half the length of
the present one. With such a calenar
to go by he died at the ripe old age
of 147 years. Today, however, his
passing would go without comment,
for it would total but 70.
The article concluded with the
statement that the Jewish and Christ
ian years will not be separated for
ever, "for in due course Rosh Hash
ona will fall at Christmas time and
then catch up with the Christian year.
This, however, will not happen for
80. 600 years" and no doubt that is
the reason why nobody worries about
it, says the article.
