the four men he had been trailing
for some time for the holding up OF
the New Orleans and Northeastern
train at Hattiesburg about six month
ago.
"The mans face is so badly swollen
and he is so thin from hard usage
that | am not certain as yet, but
am nearly satisfied that he was the
train robber on the Northeastern job,
described as the little man. said Mr.
Castleburg, az will have another look
at him by day light tomorrow and
will make sure"
Mr.. Bradley came over from Gulf
mort to see if he could recognize in

ings prevented Mr.. Bradley from
drawing definite conclusions, but ne

Qualifications for Army
 Aviators

A special aviation corps has been estab- lished in the Italian army, and in connec- ton with it pr. M Falchi, one of the mill itary surgeons attached to the school of aviation, has published the following as his idea of the qualifications of military aviator:
 Officers are best between 20 and 30 years ot age. Under 25 men are apt to attempt senseless and foolhardy flying; over 35 they may be more susceptible to the dan gers of aviation, because of the beginning of senile changes in circulatory and res- piratory apparatus. They should be light in weight, weighing about 165 pounds they should not, however, train excessive ly for the mere purpose of reducing weight They must be of robust phy- sique should not be alcoholic, and have no inherited tendency toward epilepsy or other nervous disorders. They must have excellent vision and hearing, and no dis ease of circulatory or respiratory organs They should be of even character, being neither emotional nor hesitating. They l should be prompt fin obedience as well as ir command. They should finally, be in- telligent persons

The Sun Rather

Sun baths are a splendid tonic for the weary, if taken with discretion. Nervous people are likely to be sensitive to strong light, and so should begin with 10 to 20 minute doses of the sun bath. Lying on the hot sands, or in a comfortable corner Of the window seat, where the rage of the sun cause a delicious drowsiness, cannot fail to quiet the nerves and rest the en- tire body.
 If window seat is not among the at traetive furnishings of the home, place a couch or a leaning chair in front of a sunny window. allow the body to assume the easiest possible position, with all the muscles relaxed. and with the back to the light Peruse a good book or a flaw orite magazine.

Science and Baby's Bath

While it may seem an easy and simple matter to give baby its morning bath, one French scientist declares that many infantile ills and even serious maladies can be traced to a lack of care In holding the baby. in regulating the temperature Of the water for the bath, and later in drying the baby and keeping it away from drafts.
 The water we are told. should be 95 degrees, tested by a thermometer, and not by the hand of the nurse, which can not be relied upon. This is but degrees below the temperature of the body, and the warm bath is necessary, lest the baby be chilled, as may easily happen. The bath should not last more than three or four ininutes-just time enough to wash the baby quickly
 It is of primary importance to study and practice the proper method of hold ing the baby on the lap, lifting 1t up and placing it in the water.

Russian Suicides

From the Philadelphia Record.
 Some of the St. Petersburg newspapers are printing accounts of suicide clubs which suggest that they have recently been reading Robert Louis stevenson s story. The table with the black cloth, the calm president. the qualifications for suicide membership and other similar de- tails are products of fancy; but the theme Is made actual enough by the seemingly endless record of young people in St. Pet ersburg, Moscow and other big cities who take their own lives by one or twos-
 A serious census of suicide motives is being attempted in Russian educational institutions. Reports have been received of the results of the Riga Polytechnic and the Mini -Novgorod Middle school pr. D. P. Nikolski has classified replies to questions put to HOS students at Riga.
 Of the total number 507, or 45.s per cent. answered that one time or an other they had been thoughts of sui side In Sforty-nine cases students car { ried their thoughts to action; and or 1 those eighteen committed suicide before | 1905, and twenty-five, or 51 per cent since | that date. As 1905 was the revolution
 year the high percentage points to the events then as prompting the suicidal in- 1 tention into action. Since 1905 the num- ber of suicides and attempts at suicide among the Russian youth in their edu- | cational years has mounted sharply.
 Most of the suicides who had con- l templated suicide said that their thoughts of self-destruction were due to their be- ing tired of life because it more and more proves empty and hopeless. Next came
 bodily disease as a motive, and then pow erty or the fear of It.
 Tn the NiJni-Novgorod figures home sickness comes first among the causes of thoughts of suicide. then loss of be- lief in God and man, fear for the future, personal disappointments, fear of the ex- aminations. tAonly 20 per cent of those of school age confessed to having ever thought of suicide, not much more thar

The Restored Tomb c
 Raphael

The tomb of Raphael in the Pantheon al Rome has just been restored. The fine old sarcophagus which contains the bones of the great painter has been placed in an alcove under an altar where it can be seen.
 vasari relates that when Raphael died on April 6, 152O, his body was taken to the Pantheon and buried in the night of Good Friday, under statue of the Madonna, in accordance with the will of the artist. Tradition pointed to the altar of the Ma donna del Sasso as that under which Raphael was buried. for on either side of this were tablets commemorative of Maria Bibbiena. the girl who died on the eve of her wedding to him. But in the middle of the 17th century there was ,ex- bibited at the Accademia di San Luca a skull which was said to be that of Raphael Goethe relates that he spent many honrs in meditation before this skull. Thus the sepulchre in the Pan theon became doubtful.
 In 1883 the. artistic society called the virtuosi of the Pantheon to set the mat ter at rest removed the altar in the Pan theon and there found, directly under the statue of the Madonna-just as Vasari describes t-a carefully built arch.

 Pope Gregory XVI. had magnificent sarcophagu gus made; the bones were placed in it. it was walled up under the arch and the altar was rebuilt over it.
 In some unknown way the memoria tablet to Maria Bibbiena had been moved and placed in the wall at a height tha' made it impossible to read. At the ent of last year a demand was made that this be replaced The Superior Council of F ins Arts seizecathe opportunity once more te hrinr Raphaels sarcophagus to the light and to restore tho whole altar to the con dition in which it was when the grea' artist was buried.

Here is a new employment for old tin cans. They are used in California and the southwest for the planting of young trees, especially seedlings of yellow pine. To avoid disturbing the roots in midsum- mer, when they have to be transplanted, they are grown months in advance in cans, and are set out cans and all.
 The operation shown is that of coating the cans with asphalt Thus treated, they will last for year in the ground before rusting away, conserving moisture and keeping out grubs and other destructive insects. Each can has a hole punched in the bottom for tbe taproot to find its way through

Pessimistic Views of the
 Modern Spinster

According as the man is so must you humor him to be popular.
 A god could hardly love and be wise, says an old proyerb; a woman never.
 
 Fortune and matrimony are like glass the brighter the glitter the more easily 1t is shattered.
 Nothing can come out of nothing, so why make an ado over love? II is a true proverb that if you live with lame man you will learn to halt To be single may bring much loneli- ness, but it is better than bad company. The matron marks the anniversaries of births, weddings and deaths; the spinster marks only the red letter days, and so has but happy memories.

 The newest jackets have long sleeves with slightly elongated armhole.
 Many of the new skirts are fitted with a seam over the right hip and a long straight dart over the left hip.
 Handbags are more extravagantly beau tiful than in many years, this being espe- cially true of the fabric bags, which are richly decorated.
 The hoop sleeve and the gauntlet cuff are striking features at the present time and doubtless will become even more pro- nounced as the season advances.
