His Head Was Hard.

1t is a common belief that the ne
gro's head is hard, capable Of with
standing almost any blow.
The following story told by a promi-
nent young dentist Of Danville, ILL.,,
would seem to indicate something of
the kind anywhere. Two negro men
we're employed on tearing down a
three-story brick building. One ne
gro was on top Of the building taking
off the bricks and sliding them down
a narrow wooden chute to the ground,
some thirty feet below, where the
other was picking them up and piling
them,
When this latter negro was stoop-
Ing we to pick up a brick the former
accidentally let one fall, striking him
directly on the head.
Instead Of its killing him, he merely
looked up, without rising, and said,
What you dom thar, niger, you
make me bite my tongue."-The Cir
Gle.

A Fairly We, World.

The Pacific ocean overs 5000, 900
miles, the Atlantic 10000, 900 and the
Indian, Arctic and Antarctic AZ, 900, 900.
To stow away the contents of the Pa
ciic it would be necessary to fill a
tank one mile long, one mile wide and
one mile deep every day for 44O years.
Put in figures, the Pacific holds in
weight GAS. 900. 900, 900, 600. OOO. 900 tons.
The Atlantic averages a depth of
not quite three miles. Its water weighs
S25, 900, 900, OOO, 900, OOO, 900 tons, and a
tank to contain it would have each of
Its sides 43 miles long. The figures
Of the other oceans are in the same
startling proportions. 1t would take
all the sea water in the world 1000, 900
years to flow owe Niagara.

Enaland,s Oldest School.

A controversy has arisen in England
as to which school has the right to
claim greatest age. There are two
schools which were founded in the
early part of the seventh century-the
Kings school, Rochester, and the
Kings school, Canterbury. Justus, on
his appointment to the see of Roches-

in connection with the cathedral. Au-

school about the same time. st. Pc

MISSOURI CONVICT
R0B5 PRISON SAFE
GET $50 AND ENOUGH TOBACCO
TO RUN THEM TILL TIME
is COMPLETED.
USED A SKELETON KEY
TRUSTEES Are Suspected, But Warden
Andrae Fails to Find the Loot
Capture May Reveal Whole
sale Prissn Break.

Jefferson City, Mo.-Burglars in the
p~enitentiary broke into the prison
commissary room, robbed the safe of
$50 and stole enough chewing tobacco
and cigars to last them until they
have served their sentences.
The identity of the thieves is I'M
known to Warden Andrae, but he be-
lieves the robbers were some of the
high-class burglars who are acting as
TRUSTEES. Several of the TRUSTEES are
serving terms for safe-blowing, porch
climbing, picking locks, etc.
The commissary department is
stocked by the officials of the prison,
and always is gorged with pies, cakes,
candies, tobacco and chewing gum
The d~elicacies are sold to the inmates
In the p~enitentiary at cost.
Jealous Over commissary.
Convicts who pass their Sundays
and holidays making trinkets which
they sell to visitors for souvenirs, are
the best patrons of the store. Pris-
oners who think six days a week
should be the limit for any man to
work, frequently rebuke fellow-con-
victs for their money-making proclivi.
ties. These lethargic convicts, an
gered by others eating d~elicacies be-
fore them, frequently have planned to
raid the commissary, but their plots
always have been foiled.
The fact that only TRUSTEES are per-
mitted the freedom of tibet prison at
night establishes alibis for the con-
victs who remain in their cells. War
den Andrae said the commissary room
was entere by means of a duplicate
or skeleton key made within the pri5
on walls, and the capture of the man
whose work it was may reveal a plot
for a wholesale prison break.
Believed to Be TRUSTEES.
If the man who made the key and
planned the robbery of the commits
sary room is a trusty, it is believed
he had confederates. 1t is not thought
one man could have committed the
robbery and escaped unnoticed with
out the aid of other TRUSTEES. And if
a corps of TRUSTEES worked on the deal
1t would be probable for them to plan
an escape and carry it to success.
