Interesting Review OF Institu-
tiOn for the Feminine Sex.

Beloit, Kan, Oct. 5.-The girls in
dustriaI school, located here. which is
one of the state institutions under the
state board of control, will in a few
years be self-supportiug. To convince
people of this fact one ought to have
been a visitor at the Mitchell county
state wide fair. In the building where
cooking, baking and canning were on
exhibit tbs institution had a corner set
apart to display their products, consist
ing of canned fruits, pickles, preserves
and jellies, which were grown and put
up this year at the girls industrial
school. These included canned peaches,
pIums, cherries and blackberries. wa
termelon and tomatoes, besides Gu
cumber pickles, catsup and other
relishes.
All the kitchens at the school pre-
pare for their own tables the fruit and
vegetab bIes they are allowed and this
affords the pupils the opportunity of
making under the direction of a well
trained cook the supplies for winter
that are needed in Il home.
This has been a year of abundance
of vegetables, but almost no fruit At
the institution; nevertheless there have
been about fifteen hundred quarts of
fruit. preserves. vegetables and relishes
nut up for winter to be added to the
stock of fruit left from last year. In
addition four barrels of cucumbers,
two barrels of beans, and four barrels
of kraut have been laid down.

Three years ago this tract was plowed
up and divided into six parts; each
teacher and her pupils having one part
given her to make as beautiful as pos
sible They are given all kinds of flow
er and vegetable seeds and plant as
they desire. Through the middle ex-
tending both ways a wide driveway Is
kept hard packed and perfectly clear
of all vegetation. A sweet potato
border extends around the whole trac-
and inside of this are long rows of
beets carrots or parsnips: the drive
way is bordered with flowers Inside
these borders are beds of all shapes
and descriptions, with beautiful and
artistic designs worked out, some IN
vegetables; the different shades in
green being used to advantage, also the
different colors in Vegetat tion.
Each set of pupils is left entirely free
to choose its own designs; one that

A Beautiful Flower Feature.
One of the most beautiful flower
features this year was a wide border
along the driveway of single and
double portulacas which has been a
blaze of color every day. The little
paths between beds and the spaces be-
tween designs are kept hoed and raked
perfectly clean of weeds and rubbish
a more beautiful sight of this kind is
rarely seen.
In the three years these ornamental
gardens have been cultivated. they
have improved greatly. each effort be-
ing an advance on the work of the
previous year. These gardens have
been profitable. not alone from finan-
ciaI standpoint. furnishing many veg
etabIes and flowers for the table, but
also making health for those who must
in their youth build up strong and
vigorous bodies.
All the vegetable products the school
can use are laid by for winter; some in
prepared houses of shelter; some in
pits in the ground. others IN cans. and
there is always a ready market for the
remainder. Gardening at the girls in
dustrial school pays from every point
of view.

W. H. MOODY RESIGNS.
He Will Retire From Supreme Bench
November 20.

Beverly, Oct. 5.-Associate Justice
William H. Moody of the United States
supreme court has rendered his resig-
nation to President Taft to take effect
November 20. The president wrote to
Justice Moody, who is at Magnolia, ac-
cepting the resignation and expressing
his high regard for the retiring jurist.
In retirement, Justice Moody will re-
ceive full pay of an active member of
the court, $4,000 a year.
Justice Moody has been i'll for more
than a year. Despite the fact that he
had known for some time that Mr..
Moody's retirement was inevitable, the
president said that he had accepted
the resignation with great reluctance.
Mr.. Taft holds Justice Moody in high
regard as a lawyer and jurist and feels
that he will be a great loss to the su-
preme court bench.
When he shall have appointed sue
cessors to the late Chief Justice Fuller
and to Justice Moody, the president,
within two years of having taken Office,
will have appointed four of the nine
Judges of the supreme court.

1t Not Cnfirmed at Capital.

Washington, ID C. No cOnfirma
ton is obtainable here of the report
that Senator Thompson of North Da
kOta has resigned. The senator was
on duty at the capitol and in attend
ance upon a committee meeting. He
said he presumed the report Of his
resignation grew out of information
he conveyed to members Of his family
in North Dakota, that physical weak
ness, due to short illness, might
compel him to go farther South for
month or more.
II have not abandoned the idea of
going away for a time, and think
shall go very soon for a few weeks"
he said.
Senator Thompson still is complain
ing of physical weakness, but believes
that a rest in warmer climate for
few weeks will restore his health. He
has said nothing officially about re-
signing, and will not think of it. un-
less he fails to recuperate after a
short rest.

New York, n. Y.-The indictment
against the Press Publishing COM
pany, publishers of the New York
World, charging Joseph Pulitzer and
others with criminal libel against
Theodore Roosevelt, President Taft

States district court. Judge Hough
ruled that the statute upon which the
indictment rested was not sufficient in
authority, or in other words. that the
court had no jurisdiction.
Delaney Nicoll, counsel for the de-
PENDANTS. interpreted the decision as
a signal victory for the freedom of
the press. THE curious and ingen-
ious mind" he said. that brought to
life for the first time in S5 years the
law under which this prosecution was
begun, has retired to private life. but
but left this legacy behind it,"
Among lawyers the opinion was gen
eral that the collapse of the govern
ment's case marks an end of further
prosecution.
