Queer Case of Suicide.

An extraordinary case of suicide
was described at an inquest held on
the body of Alfred Hampson at Vir.
gnia Water, In Surrey. It was stated
that Hampson suffered from weak.
mindedness. He was left alone in
his private room In sanatorium for
about twenty minutes, and when his
attendant returned Hampson was
found pressing red-hot poker into
his body. He informed Doctor Moore
that he had been told he had a devil
inside him. and the only way 1t could
be killed was by means of a red-hot
poker. He died next day.

NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN
People Who Never Change Their
Minds Have Masnified Opinion
Of Their Wisdom.

Il never change my mind" once
heard an old woman say.
And from the way In which she said
II she seemed to be quite proud Of
her attitude.
The funny part Of 1t Is that the peo-
Pile who never change their minds
nearly always have a magnified opin-
ion Of their wisdom. They would be
very much upset II they realized that
others probably much better In
formed than themselves considered
them merely obstinate and foolish.
But they seldom, IL ever, see them
selves in this light. so they continue
to map out their lives in the same
narrow groove, until perhaps one day
they waken up, and, TO their amaze
ment, find themselves left far behind
people whom they looked down upon
as ignorant.
"A wise man changes his mind; a
fool never" says an old proverb. and
we should always keep this before us
as a mental danger signal,
she simply won't be taught" !
have often heard people say. Don't
let anybody say It OF you in future
II ia the people who are always will
ing to learn who get on best in this
world.
II we keep our minds open as well
as our eyes and ears we shall find
that we are never too old to change
our minds, and that we can learn
something from everybody, even II 1t
is only what not to de.-Hoine Chat.

TAFT At DENVER


The greeting Of the president at
Denver Monday by the citizens Of
the town and thousands from all
parts of the state was most cor
dial.
The big auditorium was packed
to it's utmost capacity at II O'Clock
at night to listen to the chief mag
istrate Of the nation.
The points covered by the pres
ident is summed up as follows by
the Post:
Strong stand against apex sys-
tenn of mine leasing.
Leasing system brings capital
to Colorado. Appealed against
Colorado decree in resolutions.
1T isn't abuse and talk of muck
raking that counts. Real develop
ment counts.
"Send congressman from west
with authority to make concessions
on public land matters.
Have to increase production
per acre if we want to feed our
2OO,OOO,OOO people of the future.
Government should retain some
control in the coal lands under a
proper leasing system.
I'VE should compromise on the
water power question. The gov
eminent should transfer the water
power lands to the state and re-
serve rights which, if violated.
would cause the lands Immediately
to revert to the government.
The way to solve great public
questions is to forget the wrongs
on one part and to understand the
difficulties on the other side. Most
quarrels are the result of failure
to get together.
The work of the reclamation
service has been admirable. It
was not quick or inexpensive, but
will stand for eternity.
1.-The government cannot afford
to give up its control Of the nat
ural resources.
"One Of the difficulties in reach
ing a solution Of great questions
like those of the forest service 10
to satisfy 100000 people who
feel that they know the situation
