Tribune Makes Mistake in Dimen-

In this growing community the
widest dreams of yesterday are the
commonplace of today. Last week
we published an account of new
building to be erected in our city at
the corner of Tenth and Arthur. We
stated that the building was to be
four stories, 72xl20 feet, The men in
terested in the structure inform us
that the edihce will be 100x120 feet
and FIVE and mayhap six stories. 1t
will be a steel and reinforced concrete

We can authoritatively state that
$4,000 has been subscribed and that
a loan for half the amount of the cost
has been offered the promoters.
There is no doubt that the building
will be erected. The estimated cost
is 100000.

BIG CONTRAST IN METHODS
Difference in Way American and Can

the Indians.

A recently issued book on Fhe
Riders of the Plains, an account OF
the northwest mounted police OF Can
ada, published in London, gives
number of instances showing the dlf-
ference between the Canadian and the
United States methods of treating the
Indians. One of these is to the erect
that a number of Canadian Indians,
who had been concerned in the half
breeds rebellion of many years ago.
fed over the border to the states.
These most undesirable immigrants
were told they must go back. The
Canadian government finally said 1t
would take care of these Indians If
the states would send them over the
border. And here Is the conclusion
of the story:
In due course 200 very dissatisfied
and wild-eyed Crees, with $50 horses,
were rounded up and started north
ward, with strong force of United
States cavalry In attendance. They
were met at the boundary line by
three mounted policemen, one corporal
and two troopers.

WOMEN IN SCOTCH PRISONS
Humane Methods In GIaseow's Jail
Are to Be Adopted In
England.

Totally rough, ignorant women
coming into Scottish prison, sent up
for reasonably long time, leave there
with some useful handicraft at their
fingers end, even such arts Az fine
oriental rugmaking, skillful needle
work and professional cookery being
some of the many money making self
and demonstrating trades and things
there taught. Glasgow's prison per
mits no degrading sense of being
spted upon and watched and driven by
harsh, bulldozing jailer all the time,
the New York Press says. The best
dog, to say nothing of man or wom-
an, can have his character and self
respect destroyed by being constantly
overseen, bPowbeaten and bounded by
a low human character. Glasgow's
system compels prisoners to forget
for awhile the soul-destroying degra
dation of the prison and even makes
the onlooker think he is in a busy,
happy, first-class factory.
Women in the prison of the great
Scotch city are encouraged to look
and feel their natural best, to hold
up their heads and make the most of
their figures and appearance. Ugly
khaki garb has been discarded for
woman's wear in prison, with neat
and becoming gowns. Their hair is
dressed simply and naturally to suit
the contour of each face Every wom-
an has her own looking glass. Calls
thenic instructors in Glasgow's jail
teach women how to walk gracefully
and hold up their heads. How Is this
for Classy tolbooth? But Tip IS no
bawbee or gaberlunzie lad to find
fault but it seems a long way from
the old double jougs" and duck
stool to looking-glas and walking
masters.
England is following Scotland. By
recent order of the home office the
Scotch system is to apply to all fe- |
male prisoners between the ages of
sixteen and twenty-five, of whom, in
England, there are nowadays far, far

IS THE HOME A FAILURE?
The American Man Is Too Busy to
Enjoy the Company of
Family Life.

The failure of the home in this
busy, driving country, is one of the
startling counts in the indictment
brought against the American women,
in current publication by Rev
Dwight Hills. Nor does he let the
American men escape He pictures
the wellto-do Englishman deliberate
ly breakfasting at home and strolling
to his business at ten o'clock, and
home again in time for afternoon tea,
The American Is too busy for family
life. A hasty breakfast, behind the
morning paper, a rush all day, up to
the very edge of the evening dinner,
leave him too weary and exhausted
to enter or create another atmos-
phere. Husband and wife go differ
ent ways. The wife, heart-hungry,
absorbs herself with charity, club-life
or society If she is weak and meets
temptation, a tragedy ensues." The
average American woman clings, long
after she has ceased to receive en-.

ideal she saw in the husband, hoping
that some day he will cease giving her
