EiV6 Years

After having served five years
and six months of a seven years
sentence for train robbery, John
Black was released Wednesday
from the Leavenworth, Kansas
penitentiary on parole. Black,
in company with his brother,
James Black; and John Murphy
attempted to rob the Rock Island
mail train at Logan, N. M, on
the night of June 30,J 1904. The
men were tried in Las Vegas and
convicted, being sent to the
federal prison in 1905.
The trial Of the three men was
the most sensational legal pro-
ceeding in the history of the
fourth judicial district if not of
the entire territory. Several
trials resulted in hung juries.
The cases were hard fought and
the suspected robbers put up a
strong defense. The evidence
was purely circumstantial and
the Blacks and Murphy stoutly
maintained their innocence.
Black is about 40 years of age.
He was locomotive engineer be-
fore his arrest, Upon leaving
prison, Black went to Guthrie,
Okla. He still maintains he was
sent to prison for a crime he did
not commit. Jim Black was re-
leased on parole last January.
Murphy is still iniprison. -Tu-

a few minor mishaps, none on
board being hurt at all. The en-

locomotive they jumped to safety

caused a delay of six hours for

for the accident has not been

Revise Your Life
By GEO. H. GIvAN

Take down the boob. of life, my friend,
With care examine it's condition.;
And if you find mistakes, my friend,
Bring out, at once, a new edition.
Look for misprints on every page
Each page may need close revision;
Rewrite each word, re-read each line
Before you print the new edition.
Cross out the wicked, filthy words,
Correct the deeds of vile intention;
Blot from each leaf unholy thoughts
AS you prepare the new edition.
Mark off each angry, hateful look,
For they've a tinge of dark perdition;
Omit the scowl and saddening frown,
And make pleasing new edition.
Let manhood hustle as you write,
Let courage have it's fond fruition;
Let hope and love, and joy and peace
Fill many page of this edition.
Where failure was there write success
Give honor true bold position;
Let truth and justice-heaven born,-
Give priceless worth to this edition.
Be careful how you punctuate
That none may have false suspicion;
For out of place one little mark
Would greatly mar your new edition.
Let all the polished grace and art
For which God has made provision.
Adorn it all from first to last
And you will have good edition.
Then send the proof up to the skies
| know that you can get permission;
And let the printer, great and wise
Correct and print your new edition.
Yes let him print it on your heart
So plain twill never need transition;
Then, when you reach the pearly gates
You'll need no more new edition.

Frame New Rules for Federal Courts

which the United States court rules OF
equity practice were adapted have
long since been displaced in the Eng.
lish practice, and in almost every
minor jurisdiction in the United States
where they were in force in the last
century have been abandoned for code
procedure or amended In accord with
modern ideas and practice.
Members of the bar in commenting
on the proposed reform without excep-
ton commend it. They say that the
rules as they now stand. if rigidly en-
forced, would involve litigation in an
endless snarl, and that the present
rules have been tolerable only by rea-
son of the disregard of many of them
which have been found impractical OF
enforcement in modern procedure. But
in such cases they say that special or
ders and short cuts insults are made
to fit the individual case and thus the
whole procedure is up in the air. or
in the "discretion of the court" which
is in many cases just as bad.
No intimation was given by CHIEF
Justice White or either member Of the
committee just what form the revision
will take, but it is agreed that it Will
look to the expediting Of causes, and
the relief OF ntigants from the almost
prohibitive expense of the present
equity procedure.
The committee is expected to report
its recommendations to the Supreme
court early in the fall term.

Bank Uses Thumb Print Signatures

card for him, just as we would for
any other depositor. Then we write
his name and witness his mark. Then
We give him an ordinary rubber
stamp pad with red ink on it, and he
presses first one thumb and then the
other on the pad and makes a care
full, clear impression of each on the
corners of his card.
When the depositor comes back to
add to his account or to withdraw
money the bank attendant makes out
the slip for him and writes in his
name. Then the depositor makes his
thumb print on the slip and presents
it at the teller's window. The teller
turns to the card index and finds the
card, just as he would for any other
depositor. In place Of looking at the
signature he looks at the thumb prints
and compares them with the marks
on the deposit or withdrawal slip.
We have never had a complaint or
error from the use of this system.
There are absolutely no two thumbs
alike, and the thumb print mark is
all absolute Identification. We have
had complaints over signatures, but
never over thumb prints. Men have
claimed that they did not sign with
drawal slips, but no one has ever de-
MED his thumb mark.
