A PRISON INDEx-It has been the custom of the board of control to keep in the Capitol building a duplicate of the prison record book showing the facts concerning every prisoner in the penitentiary, as a safeguard against the record at the pen being burned or otherwise destroyed. The clerk of the board. Miss Leonard, has now supple mented this record book with a card index that will make the book a much more convenient reference volume. On one side of the card is the name Of the prisoner, his personal description in full, the record of his crime and sen tence, etc On the other side of the card is a picture of the prisoner and blanks that may be filled in showing the record of his conduct in the prison, the credits due him or any demerits that are marked up against him.

 girl. clad in the flannel bathing suit of a decade ago. would probably create decided impression if she were to ap- pear at one of the seaside resorts when bathers claimed each and every corner where the water was not too deep and not too shallow. The flannel bathing suit is gone never to return. SIX and al- paca, cut in more stylish modes, first took the place of the flannel in the baggy shapeless patterns, and now the bathing suits are even more changed.
 The latest decided change is probably due wholly to the ultra modes of wOm- ems attire, for with the tub gown and the directoire come the tub bathing suit and the directoire swimming costume, and even Paris insists that the bathing suit be kept in harmony with the other dresses, the gowns worn everywhere. The latest models, dIsregarding the talk they create, are probably the best bathing suits ever worn by women, for they all low swimming with less effort and the diving Is very easily accomplished on account of their close fitting.
 The fashionable attire of the ocean Is now made up of satlns. silks of various kinds and taffetas. The new directoire bathing costume Is very high waisted. the slip worn over bloomers, and eccen- tric figures hardly look well in them. Red and blue furnish the greater DOT tiOn of the colOTs worn. They are made with a short shirred bodice, belted very high m. with a black embroidered belt.

WORKING HARD
ON -AEROPLANES
GERMANS SAID TO BE MAKING
GREAT PROGRESS IN THEIR EX-
PERIMENTS.

BERLIN, January 15.-German aero
nauts are reaching after the Wright
brothers laurels. Experiments with
new aeroplanes are being quietly but
diligently carried on by inventors in
various sections of Germany. One of
the new machines, which was private
ly exhibited to a number of officers
and engineers at Mayence yesterday,
is said to mark distinct improve
ment over previous models in that it
rises directly from its starting place
without having to gain momentum by
a preliminary run on wheels.
Great expectations also are based on
the experiments of Major Parseval,
an airship constructor, who is build
ing an aeroplane designed to attain
great speed .Parseval will employ a
100-horse-power motor. 1t is expected
that a number of German machines
will be ready for public trials at an
aeronautic exhibition to be held at
Frankfort-on-the-M next summer

the exhibition.

Mr.. and Mrs Herbert A. Hover,
members of the Spokane Motor Club,
who completed in New York Novem-
Der 8, the first leg of what is conceded
to be the longest automobile trip ever
attempted, are in Spokane, making
ready for a journey of 10000 miles
through Europe, Asia and Africa.
They will sail from New York, jan
uary %, going to Algiers, passing the
winter in Algeria, Tunis and Egypt
and penetrating the Sahara desert as
far as Biskra. Crossing to Italy in
the spring, the next three years will
be devoted to crossing every country
in Europe at least one way, with some
some touring in West Siberia.
The homeward trip will begin in
1911 by crossing from Turkey into
Palestine, where the car will be driven
| to Jerusalem and back to the coast,
and taken to India, China and Japan,
the Philippines, Australia, New Zea-
land and Hawaii, autoing in each coun-
try as much as is feasible. From Ho-
nolulu they will sail for San Francisco
in the winter of 1912, driving thence
to Spokane, and by that time they ex-
pect to have covered in their way more
than $4,000 miles, some of which in
districts where an automobile has ne
yer before been seen.

no attempt at speed was made on the
recent trip, though he and Mrs. Hover,
who has been his companion since
they started, made the trip from the
Pacific to the Atlantic and from Me-
xico to Canada in good time. They
started from the Pacific coast below
Los Angeles, April IL and reached New
York November 8, and dipped the
wheels of the machine in the Atlantic

They drove more than 1000 miles
from Tia Juana, small village in
Mexico, crossing California, Washing.

braska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and New York, crossing the interna
tional border at Niagara Falls. They
had to cross seven mountain ranges
and hundreds of miles of almost track

shacks were far apart and where they
sometimes did not meet human being
for days; building roads where ne

kept steadily moving on. Suficien

try"
Expert drivers laughed at Hover
when he declared he would make the
trip in a two-cylinder, 20 H. P. car.
but he found it serviceable on bad
roads, where high power would have
been useless. His machine is in good
conditions, but he expects to use a
larger car on the European trip, on
which he will be accompanied by Mrs.

and other points where travelling was
i'll hours. For instance, there was the
old road near Roseburg, Ore, where
we had forty miles of the worst going
imaginable. Deep holes, steep grades
and road badly cut up were some of
the features while at places there were.
no bridges across streams, and at times
we had to build wagon ways across
fallen timbers that were too large to
hew a passage through.
after leaving Spokane we went to
Lewiston, Idaho from there to Ana
tone and thence across the Grande
Ronde river and over the Shoemaker
grade. This grade had never been ira
versed. We thought Uniontown hill
was steep, but this Shoemaker grade
made the former but dim memory.
It is three miles in length and has a
fall of $500 feet. The grade averages
more than fifteen per cent, while in
places it is thirty-five per cent, max
ing us strew boulders in the way Of
the car to let it down easily.
Going across the river we went
across a spur of the Blue mountains,
to Enterprise, Ore, and thence to Wal

some time, fishing and catching some
remarkably large trout, the largest, as
| recollect, weighing nineteen pounds.

From Boise to Pocatello, though,
was the worst stretch we encountered
on our transcontinental trip. Deep
sand and light volcanic ash alternated
with broken lava in large fields The
sand forced us in many places to lay
long canvas strips ahead of the car
to make any progress at all, the ash
hung up our aXles and the lava cut
our tires badly. The hardest of the
whole stretch was between Burley anC

we had to shave off the road from ont

Schiff added that he hoped that the
work would, before long, have reached
a point where at least an average of
two hundred immigrants per month
could be properly distributed and
placed, although until the new manage
ment instituted at Galveston had had
time to thoroughly get into the saddle,
he thought it better to- go slowly. Mr..
Zangwill stated that the last shipment
from Russia had consisted of 70 souls,
and that applications for bookings to
Galveston had been received both from
London and Antwerp. Herr James
Simon, president of the Hilfsverein,
had sent valuable report upon the
conditions at Bremen. Amid much
that was satisfactory several griev-
ances still needed redressing Thus
the food supply at the lodging house
'Stadt Warschau," although good in
quality, was deficient in variety and
the sanitary arrangements were also
inconvenient On board the ships too,
though there was great improvement
in the treatment of the Galveston pas
sengers by the petty officers and the
crews, still the accommodation occa-
sionally offended the demands of pro-
priety. Herr Simon promised to do his
best to persuade the directors to
amend these matters.
