In Alaska Interior.

Washington. D. C. (SpeeiaD -
Farming by subirrigation and with
the moisture supplied by melting ice
is novel agricultural method
adopted in the interior of Alaska,
according to the official report OF
Chief Special Agent Mckenzie, who
supervised the taking OF the recent
census in the Fourth District of thai
territory. The system is proving
surprisingly successful. Many kinds
of vegetables are being grown. thus
rendering living conditions moo toll
cradle in the far northern country
The future is most promising IN this
respect. believes Mr.. Mckenzie.
Agriculture in this portion Of
Alaska is yet in its infancy says
Mr.. Mckenzie. but it has arrived
at such proportions as to be consid-
cred almost wonderful in its results

was arrested here in downtown restau-
rant, not five minutes walk from the bank
he had robbed He was Erwin Wider
the missing cashier Of the Russ0-Chinese
Bank. In the Court of General Sessions
his LAWYER. Leon Gin,berg said that he
would plead guilty. and he was committed
TO the TombS in default Of $4,000 bail.
Ginsberg pleaded vainlv with Judge War
rem Foster for a lower amount. saying
none Of this money is in my clients
possession. 1t was all swallowed up IN
Wall Street speculation
Almost as Wider was arrested the
grand jury handed up an indictment
against him. charging specifically that he
stole three certificates. one OF 80 shares
and two others Of % shares each Of Bal
timore and Ohio stock. and that he dis,
posed Of them through the brokerage
house OF Dick Brothers on May D last.
These particulars indicate that the pro
cess OF theft had been going on for weeks
and possibly for months before it was
discovered
How such State of affairs could have
existed is difficult to understand. for al
least three other officers Of the bank had
access TO the safety deposit box in which
the banks securities were kept. and the
box itself was brought daily to the offices
OF the bank. where it was kept during
business hours in the banks safe Brok-
ers with whom Wider traded have said
that he called up from the bank to give
them orders over the telephone
Ginsberg's statement that all the sum
stolen had been eaten up in speculation
would seem to indicate that the bank will
never recover a dollar It has been said
heretofore that suits would be filed
against the brokers with whom Wider
dealt. but no such suits have yet been in
stituted.

Washington. D. c. (SpeciaD -
Owing TO the discovery of the hoof-
and-mouth disease among cattle in
Yorkshire, England, the importation
OF cattle from thar country into the
United States has been prohibited
until the extent of the disease can
be determined
Dr. w. H. Wray, chief inspector in
England for the bureau of animal
industry, reported the existence OF
the disease to the Department Of
Agriculture. which received further
confirmation through State Depart
ment channels. Thereupon the De-
partment OF Agriculture immediate
~ ordered importations of cattle
from England suspended. Nothing
has been learned here yet as to the
extent of the infection.
London and SOUTHAMPTON have
been designated by the department
as the two ports through which for
the present cattle from the Channel
Islands and other parts of the Brit
ish Isles not placed under the ban
may. be shipped to this country. Liv-
erpool and other ports near the
point of the infection are closed
ports, as far as this part of their
trade is concerned.
France. Germany, Belgium, Hol-
land, Switzerland and most OF the
other countries OF Continental Eu-
rope have not been allowed for some
time past to send cattle to this coun-
try, because the hoof-and-mouth
disease either is or has been preva-
lent in them. Several South Ameri-
can countries also are undsr the
ban. Six months after the disease
disappears is usually the time limit
within which importations are pro-
hibited. IN some of the countries
mentioned the ban is about to be
lifted.

!, SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVING
ELMSE0JSE CONDITIONS

After exposing the terrible copdi-
lions prevailing in the County Alms-
houses in New York. Mr.. James Or.
penheim. who contributes his i'm.
mensely interesting article to tho
American Magazine, suggests the fol-
lowing changes whereby the condi-
lions he describes can be ameliors.c1..
First. put the almshouses in.
charge of the State. Centralize tho
control and the responsibility. Our
State institutions are all modern
the buildings are fitted to their pur-
pose. the superintendent are trained
and they are run on economic. human
and scientific principles. 1t is esti-
mated that the insane receive fftv
times the amount and quality Of care
given TO the almshouse inmates. and
this at a less per capita expense
Under the State, the best experts
could be secured and could be held
responsible.
Second, drain the almshouses Of
all inmates not properly there. Put
Migrants in Jail. idiots in asyluu+ for
the feeble-minded. the sick in hosni-
tails. If this. were done, instead Of
fifty houses in the State. dozen
would be sufficient. This would mean
economy and concentration OF en-
lightened effort.
Third, make the position of
keeper a civil service job. Put in
charge trained man. For instance
the Woman's Reformatory at Bed
ford. Westchester County, is in charge
of Miss Davis, doctor of philosophy
and an expert on dietetics. She has
with her A resident woman physician
and a staff of teachers. Or the Girls
Reformatory at Hudson. in charge Of
DR.. Hortense B. Bruce. a physician.
Under such enlightened supervision.
there is apt to be good housing. GOOD
food, good clothing. good care.
Fourth, do some constructive
work with the inmates to make their
lives worth while. This experiment
has already been tried with great sue
cess by the Committee on Employ
ment of Infirm of the State Charities
Aid Association of New York
Fifth, and finally. install the cot
tage system of buildings. That is,
number of small connected buildings.
instead of one large building. with
separate rooms for inmates instead
of dormitories. This will make for
privacy and decency and happiness,
and friends or like-minded inmates
may be housed together"

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Many a family tree springs from
the root of all evil.
Any English butler will tell YOU
that the proof of the pudding is in
the heating.
The courage that can only be
screwed up with a corkscrew suffers a
quick relapse.
Most of us can get used to poverty
more readily than to wealth We
have more practice.
Women also are but children OF
larger growth. They soon get tired
of their toys and break them.
The luck of a seventh son may con-
sist of having to wear all the cast-of
clothes of the other six.
One man may admire another man
almost as much as one woman ad
mires another woman's clothes.
Many man who tries to be a bull
in the stock market would meet with
Just as much success in china shop.

relsome people want.
No man is so rich that he doesn't
want something, even if it's only a
good cook
A talkative woman is always popu-
lar with the men because there isn't
any other kind.
A mans heart is frequently touched
through sympathy, his pocketbook
through fiattery.
The fellow who tries to swear off
generally discovers that the spirits
are willing but the flesh is weak
1t is comforting TO think we're as
old as we feel, but the stubborn fact
remains that we're as old as we are.
Extremes rarely meet. as for in
stance the man who wants something
some other man wants to give away.
A little misdirected enthusiasm is
better than life membership in the
Ancient Order OF the Wet Blanket.
The fellow who declares that be.
will never marry may eventually dis;
cover that he hasn't much voice in the,
matter. - From "Dyspeptic Philoso-
ply" in the New York Times.
