WEST Is ANGERED.
Says San Quentin Prison System is
Antiquated and Rotten.

Characterizing the prison system
at San Quentin penitentiary, Califor-
MIA, as "antiquated and rotten" Gov
ernor West of Oregon, thoroughly
angered, replied hotly to the criti-
cism by Warden Hoyle and others
connected with San Quentin prison
that the governor was largely re-
sponsible through his efforts at re-
forms in the Oregon penitentiary at
Salem, Ore, for the bloody mess
room riot.
San Quentin prison officials
ought to use more brains and less
lead, if they'd have a good deal bet
ter. success, said Governor West.
Despite ungrounded attacks on
our system of humane treatment of
prisoners at Salem penitentiary, the
fact remains that we never have any
trouble. Sentiment does not rule
there, but common sense does. The
prisoners, treated like human beings,
are responding splendidly to fair
dealings.
I'VE can take care of ourselves at
Salem. We are not bothering about
San Quentin. The prison officials
there can make their place a slaugh-
ter house if they wish-we shall not
interfere"

ERL STAGES PASSION PLAY.
Village Prepares To Entertain Big
ThrOngS of Visitors.

Although there are to be no per-
formances at OberammeTgau this
year, travellers upon the continent
will not be without an opportunity
to see the Passion Play.
The diminutive hamlet of Erl, in
the northern Tyrol, has bounded into
fame as a rival of the more celebra-
ted Bayarian village and a possible
competitor for the first hOnors in the
representation of the sacred drama.
Erl lies in the valley of the Inn,
almost within a stones throw of the
Bavarian border. 1t is a typical Ty-
rolean village, with a picturesque
group of peasants houses huddIed
about a large church.
For centuries-since 1900, accord
ing to some estimates-a Passion
Play has been given here at inter
walls. AS at Oberammergau, the act
ors are selected from the inhabitants
of the town and its environs, but
while Oberammergau has waXed rich
and famous, Erl has remained almost
unknown.
This year the people of the village,
spurred on by the success of Oberam-
mergau, have decided to emerge
from their seclusion and claim the
notice of the outer world.
A theater, capable of accommodate
ing 500 spectators, has been erect
ed. The stage stretches the full
width of the building A huge res
taurant has been completed, and
moi hprinU farm, hDIIeac convert or
into hotels.
The first public rehearsal was held
a few days ago. Three hundred act
ors played their parts with dignity
and sincerity, and Kaspar Pfisterer
a carpenter, who takes the role of the
Saviour, is said to be not unworth!

TOURISTS REACH CRATER.
Snow Reported Ten Feet Deep at
Arants Camp.

The first party of tourists this sea-
son to reach Crater Lake returned
to Klamath Falls Saturday after four
hard days. In the party were two
women, probably the first of their
sex to visit the lake this early in the
season. The tourists were Mr.. and
Mrs. R. w. Neighbor and Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Trower of Oakland, Cal.
The party reports 10 feet of snow
yet at Arants camp. The sight of
the lake well repaid us for the hard
ships of the trip" said Mr.. Neighbor,
and although we expected a grand
sight, we were hardly prepared for
the sight that met our eyes. | have
seen the Grand Canyon, Yosemite
Park, Lake Tahoe, the Selkirk noun
tains, the Canadian Rockies and 9TH
er American scenes of wonder, but in
my mind none of these compares
with our view of Crater Lake"
Mrs. Trower and Mrs. Neighbor
displayed remarkable pluck during
the strenuous trip, and enjoyed every
moment of the outing" said Mr..
Neighbor in conclusion. Still tnis
is a trip that | would not advise
other women to make so early in the
season, especially those who are not
used to continuous riding"

TWIN WIRELESS STATIONS
Direct Communication With England
is Planned.

Twin wireless stations to communi-
cate directly with London will be
built along the New Jersey coast
within year, according to an an
nouncement made by the Marconi
Wireless Telegraph Company of
America. Options have been obtained
in similar sites at San Francisco and
Honolulu.
1t is planned to construct a plant
in the Philippine islands to communi-
cate directly with the one at Homo
lulu.
The company thus will be enabled
to send messages from London to the
Philippines by way of the United
States, relaying the messages by land
wires from the Jersey coast to san
Francisco. The plants at San Fran
cisco and Honolulu will be erected
Immediately, the announcement adds.
The first New Jersey station, the
announcement says, will be erected
within nine months near Belmar,
upon site of $50 acres. The second
will be erected at Toms River or
Barnegat, and will be tuned to a key
different from the first, so that mes
sages to either station may be re-
ceived and sent simultaneously with
out interference.
The distance from the New Jersey
stations TO London is 3,100 miles.
The estimated cost of the plants will
be $750,000 each.

GUNNER FIRES IN AIR.
Aviator ut High Speed Hits Target
Fifty Times.

Washington The practicability
of aerial artillery was demonstrated
with remarkable success at College
Park, Md. when Captain Charles
def. Chandler, chief of the areonau-
tical division of the United States
army signal corps, from an aeroplane
600 feet in the air, flying 80 miles
an hour. fired half hundred shots
from the army's new aeroplane ma
chine gun and made every shot tell
on space three by 12 feet Officers
of the army were elated over the
success of the new weapon and tie
accuracy with which it was fired
from the rapidly moving flying ma
chine
The little gun, weighing only 25 Y
pounds. was lashed TO the aeroplane
In such manner that the breech
rested almost in the lap of the gun
ner The figure was at an angle of
about 45 degrees.
The gun is capable of firing $50
shots a minute and artillery officers
believe they have successfully solved
the problem OF utilizing the aero
plane in warfare for other than scout
ing purposes.

ANNEXATION HINTED.
Englishman Says Such Il Course Best
for Everyone.

LCndOn-Sir Harry H. Johnston,
the famous explorer and naturalist,
who has made a careful study of Gu
ban problems, writes to the London
Times:
The very best thing which could
happen to Cuba from the point of
view of Cubans, and especially the
negro Cubans. and of that outer
world, England, Canada, Germany,
France, the United States and quite
recently Spain, which has invested
so much capital in the development
of Cuban industries and means Of
transport, would be annexation of
the island to the United States, with
the form of government for some
years to come of a United States ter
ritOry.
Corruption and the misgovern-
ment of the present Cuban admins
tration is in no way exaggerated in
your leading article of May 27. Gu
ban negroes are blamed for having
provoked recent troubles. They have
suffered so much from their treat
ment at the hands of the white and
half caste national government since
1910 that | do not wonder at their
being in rebellion against it,
But it is a mistake to describe
them as illiterate or in any other
Opprobrious terms. Education has
made great strides among them since
1893, especially during the American
administration of government. Dur
ing my stay in Cuba | have beer
much impressed by the spread of the
right kind of civilization among Gu
ban negroes.
Nowhere. in fact, at the presen
day does the negro appear to bettel
advantage in tropical America thar
in Cuba. but he demands and will
have just and honest government
and that under existing circum
stances he can only get from United
States administrators 1t was tn,
negroes really as q fighting force
that proved to be the unconQuerabl,
element in the Cuban insurrection
against Spain.
"If the United States hesitate
much longer to become directly re
sponsible for the administration o
Cuba, Cuba may experience the his
tory of Hispanola"

STRANGE GRAIN DISCOVERED.
California Rancher Finds New. Bar.
ley and Oats.

Chico Cal.-Barley and oat-grow-
ing experiments by G. w. Overton,
rancher on Rock creek, just north
of Chico, have developed grains that
may be adopted throughout the
United States.
The experiments are considered so
remarkable that the government has
ordered an inspection of his process
with a view of establishing his meth
ods throughout the country. The
feature of the new barley is that
from two to five heads grow on each
stock, the principal head ripening
first and being easily twice as large
as the others, which are of normal
size. The combined heads are about
nine inches long, while the stock is
tough and about as large as an ordi-
nary lead pencil, standing against a
heavy wind.
His tame oats has an average of
three heads to the stock

WOULD PATROL RUFF.
San Francisco Editor Appeals to
Prison Board.

San Francisco, Fremont Older,
managing editor of the San Francis
co Bulletin, has sent a petition to
the board of prison directors asking
for the parole of Abraham Ruef. No
action has yet been taken by the
board. Older's reasons for asking
the parole of the convicted boss are,
stated in part, as follows:
Since his arrest Ruef has served
nearly five years in Jail and prison.
Others, who We're equally guilty with
him, wholly escaped the penalty that
Ruef has suffered.
1T seems to me that the city and
state have had all the benefit they
can ever hope to get from the long
and bitter fight that has been made
1t has resulted in freeing the people
from a 40-year enslavement bv the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company
The government is now in the peo-
pies hands.
Can you not take the broader
view of justice, and can you not see
that Ruef is not alone responsible
for his condition? Is it not true that
we are all Of us responsible? That
society is responsible for the stan.

San Francisco. james b. and
John j. Mcnamara, the former sery-

San Quentin in connection with the
Los Angeles dynamiting cases, are
both under the ban at San Quentin
prison for failure to do the work as
signed them
The two eX-union labor leaders
have had their credits taken from
them, and must remain without priv
ileges until they show a disposition
to conform to the rules of the prison
and perform the daily tasks allotted
to them in common with the other
prisoners.
Their position is precisely that oc-
cupied for 80 days by Abraham Ruef.
One of the tasks assigned both
brothers was handling 100 yards of
Cloth in the jute mill each day. They
proved stubborn, and after repeated
warnings that they must do the work
exactly as other prisoners did, were
removed from the mill

here started riot in the dining room
Sunday afternoon, with the result
that one rioter was killed, shot down
by a guard on the wall; two were
wounded and one guard was struck
in the back of the head with a vine
gar cruet. The steam hose was
turned on the men as they attempted
to make a rush on the kitchen, and
they were subdued and sent to their
cells in few minutes, after hurting
dishes and food about. The riot
lasted 20 minutes. At night the riot
ers again broke out with 'shrieks,
yells and curses, and these lasted sew

TWENTY-FIVE HORSES BURNED
Circus Train Catches Fire and One
Car is Destroyed.

Pendleton, Ore.-En route from
The Dalles to this city, the Sells
FlotO circus train took fire shortly
before midnight Wednesday night
and before the heoroic work of the
train crew and circus helpers could
subdue the flames % horses were
burned to death and two men were
injured. While trying to rescue the
horses from a burning car one of the
circus attaches was violently kicked,
and Is now in the local hospital. An
other helper is confined in bed, but
his injuries are not considered Seri-
Gus. Only five horses were saved
from the burning car. Sparks from
the engine set fire to the loose hay
in the interior of the car and it was
soon a roaring furnace. AS quickly
as possible the train was cut in two
and run made back half mile to
a water tank, where the blaze was
quenChed.
Before the tank was reached the
horses in one car had perished but
the remainder of the train was saved.
The Sells-Floto people maintain re-
serve equipment in winter quarters
and a carload of horses is already on
the way. Fortunately no ring horses
We're among those burned, but many
of the lost animals were some of the
finest draft and parade horses the
show possessed. 1t was necessary for
the management to secure a number
of draft teams here to unload and
draw the carriages in the parade.
