IF Fame Statuary Not Artistic

Webster, whom everybody knows was
not large man, but the statue makes
him a regular giant There is a
statue of John j. Ingalls,, the only one
as yet sent by Kansas, and excepting
that it is like a line, has neither
breadth nor thickness, which was a
good description of ingalls,. 1t is the
limit for ugliness. There is a statue
of Frances Willard in a basque and
ill-hanging dress, which bears not the
slightest resemblance to that dainty
sWeet-faced woman. There is statue
of Phil Kearny in bronze, which is
very pretty to look at, but has very
little artistic merit, and there is one
of Shoup, of Idaho, which looks as
though it might have been sandpa-
pered out of piece of marble. And
then there is Washington, a dapper-
little darling with sloping brow, as
fashioned by Houdon.
The Washington newspapers some
time ago began a crusade to have
the law placing statutes in Statuary
hall by the states repealed. 1t is to
be repealed on the ground that the
hall is already damned to overflow
ing, and if any more statuary is pre-
scented it will be necessary to make a
second and inner row.

Postal Thieves Comparatively Few

Circumstantial evidence does not go
at any time with US. 1t is an, estab-
lished rule that the evidence must be
positive and direct. In almost every
case an arrest means conviction.
From one point of view it is won
derful that there are so few thieves
among the many thousands Of clerks
who handle the mails first and last,
for great temptations surround them.
as they handle millions of valuable
parcels. 1t is known that these clerks
soon learn to tell by the very touch
of a letter whether it contains money
If so inclined it would be an easy mat
ter for the dishonest clerk to slip
letters into his pocket and open them
in the privacy of his room. That the
cases of dishonesty are comparative
ly few is high tribute to the moral
qualities of the postofice clerks.
There are but two successful ways
to catch postoffice thief constant
watch and decoy letters. With these
and large supply of patience, the
game will be landed, though it often
REQUIRES months, and sometimes years.
1t is one of the most annoying and diff
ficult lines of detective work, and re-
uuires the most earnest application
Not single circumstance or detail
must be overlooked"

Much-Read Social Science Bulletins

stated, when the Department of Agri-
culture recently issued the book on
the use of cheap cuts of meat, that it
was the first government cook book
ever printed.
The social science series has been
running for more than a decade, and
has, incidentally, taken in various do
nestle problems in the food line I'M
der the head of Nutrition Investiga-
tons" The earliest of these was one
on the composition and cooking of
meats, issued nearly IA years ago. OF
this there has been something over
half million copies distributed.
But the most popular of all the bull
1etins was the recent one on "The
Economical Use of Meat in the
Home" This has been out only few
months, and there have already been
distributed 100000 Calls are still
coming in rapidly.
The series comprises books on all
sorts of subjects-the preserving of
fruits and vegetables, fish as food, the
care of milk in the home, the value of
peas, beans and, legumes in general as
food, the cooking of vegetables, and
more than a dozen other subjects

Hall {

n HERE is a determined effort being
1 made in Washington to have old
Representative hall in the capitol
cleaned out. This is the room now
known as the Hall OF Horrors to those
who have seen the statuary in it, but
which is aristocratically titled the
Hall of Fame
There are lot of statues that are
freaks from way back. There is only
one piece of really good sculpture in
the whole bunch of some 35 or 40, and
that is Father Marquette, which was
presented by Wisconsin. 1t is an ex-
quisite piece of work. The rest of
the statues are practical caricatures.
There s one of Fulton, who is seated
in a chair with a piece of machinery
in his hand. He lops all over the
chair, his legs are sprawled in all
sorts of ways, and it is about as woe
begone piece of marble as can well
be imagined. There is a marble of

VIZ ASHINGTON.-O of the mighty
w few instances on record of the
United States having been done" in
its cash accounts came to light at
the treasury department the other day
In decision handed down by the con-
troller of the treasury In this par
ticular instance the government is
short more than $4,000 and has no
way of helping itself. 1t became a
victim through the carelessness of it's
own officers, and the victimization,
too, was not criminal in its nature.
Prior to 1879 the late Samuel j.
Little of Georgetown owned four GER
tificates of 6 per cent. stock of the
old corporation Of Georgetown. Upon
his death he left life interest in the
stock to his sister, Mrs. Eliza A.
Ricketts,, and the residue to his minor
children, j. c. Little and Julia A.
Little. In the settlement of the case
before the probate court the actual
possession of the four certificates of
stock was passed to Mrs. Ricketts,, SO
that she might collect from the treas
urer, from time to time, the interest
due her
Shortly after this United States
Treasurer Gilfillan issued a circular
calling upon all holders of George
town corporation stock, which was
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1910-10-06

THE Postofice Department daily re-
4 ceives hundreds of complaints
caused by the losses of packages and
money. Mails are easy to rob, but few
postal thieves ever escape final de-
lection: they are sure to be entrapped
and punished in the end. While speak
ing of these numerous complaints, an
old detective, called inspector, OF the
Postofice Department said: mo
thief is harder to catch than the one
who robs Uncle Sans mail. The
methods Of such thieves are ingenious,
the plumber is easily hidden or de-
stroyed, and their rascality is well
masked by the honesty and integrity
Of associates.
ssPostofice thieves are not arrested
every day, although valuable letters
and other articles are stolen almost
daily and an army of shrewd inspec-
tors are on the alert. Positive proof
OF guilt must be In the possession of
the inspector before an arrest Is made.

WHETHER the high price Of food
w is causing the public to take an
uncommonly keen interest in domes-
tic problems now, or whether the
cause is something else, the officials
of the Department of Agriculture do
not undertake to say. The fact re-
mains that there has been greater
run up to date on the so-called social
science" series of bulletins than on
any other pamphlets the department
has ever produced.
Up to the present there has been a
total of 16,672,000 bulletins distribut-
ed. Some now out of print have been
applied for so often that it is prob
able the estimates for next year will
include provision for reprinting.
This government is the only one in
the world that has gone into the bust
ness of printing cook books. 1t was

In 1894 Julia A. Burnell, formerly
Julia A. Little, the daughter of Sam.
ue1 J. Little, made claim for the $4,-

roneously paid to Mrs. Ricketts,, who
had life interest only. The claim
was disallowed by the treasury. Mrs
Burnen and her husband then entered
suit for the amount before the court
of claims. A year ago they obtained
judgment for the amount, and in the
deficiency act of June 25, 1910, ap-
preparation was made to pay this
claim, along with others.
Mrs. Burnen has been fighting for
sixteen years to secure the money
she thought was hers and is just now
coming into her own, while the gov

METHODIST oRPHANAGE.
Generous Contributions Enable Trus-
tees to Enlarge the Institution.

Jacksonville people of the state
generally, especially those of the
Methodist denomination, will be inter
ested to know that improvements and
extensions are now being made at that
great institution known as the Missis-
sippi Methodist Orphans Home, that
will cost in the neighborhood of $40,-
O0O
These improvements consist in the
construction of two handsome three
story brick buildings-one to be
known as the boysl dormitory, the
other, on the left, as the school build
ing. Both are nearing completion.
Nearly all the lumber and brick used
in the construction of these buildings
have been given to the institution by
Enochs Bros. of Jackson and Fern
wood, the Lamptons of Magnolia and
other mill men.
Among the larger contributors OF
the building fund are: DR.. Luther Sex
ton of New Orleans, 100000; Walter
Hampton of Magnolia, $4,000; Us. Sex
ton of Hazlehurst, $1,000; R. w. Mill
saps of Jackson, $1,000.
There are now $50 children cared
for in the home, and they have all the
advantages of a sure-enough home,
good schooling, religious training,
kind but firm treatment, and there is
no reason why they should not turn
out to be good and useful citizens. No
child under 2 years of age Is received
at the Methodist orphanage, and they
are kept till they are able to make
their way in the world.
The home has farm or truck patch
of sixteen acres, that is worked by
the boys, and they make fine crops.
The land lies we'll and is being
brought to a high state of cultivation.
They are also taught how to attend
to live stock, to feed and curry the
horses and mules, to encourage the big
bunch of hogs to put on flesh, to milk
the twenty-five COWS and attend to the
making of milk and butter.
