Up till q few nights ago the report

The monster of the deep may have

was there in spirit and in truth, even
If more in spirit than in truth, is no

FREEDOM is SPURNED
MINNESOTA CONVICT DECLINES
ALL PRoFFERs OF RELEASE.
He is a Man of Good Habits and I'M
pulses, Has Considerable Money
Saved, and Could Have Been
Free Long Ago.

Saltwater, Minn.-The man whom
Dickens wrote about when he visited
America. who refused to leave prison,
has counterpart in the Minnesota
state prison. Frank Johnson, 'lifer
in the penitentiary here. declines all
proffers of freedom thrust upon him;
has declined them for ten years. Il
will not go from here; l intend to dle
in prison." he said when offered a dis
charge.
Johnson is Ga years old; has served
longer than any other 'lifer" now IN
the prison, his term having begun be-
fore the sentences of the famous
Younger brothers. He has been indlf-
ferent and contented while other lifers
clamored for release. The law passed
in the interest of the Younger broth
ers, which made thirty-five years the
limit for life prisoner, brought no
consolation to Johnson.
Johnson came from Sweden and
worked in brick yard in Minneapolis
Thirty-six years ago, while drinking,
he shot to death one of his close
friends, and for that crime was SEN
fenced ON March IL, 1876, for murder
in the second degree to life imprison-
ment. having pleaded guilty. The pris-
on record does not reveal the name or
the man he killed.
Johnson has been q model prisoner
ever since he entered the prison
doors, and he is in the trusty class. He
is not required to do heavy work, but
now assists about the engine house as
wiper. His intellect has declined un-
der long incarceration.
That the prisoner is a man OF good
impulses and probably the victim or
mere circumstance is the belief of the
prison authorities. Warden Wolfer
says that years ago Johnson loaned to
a friend funds to send for the friends
sweetheart in the old country. The
young woman came, and was married
to the friend located on a homestead
near Graceville, MINI. She and her
husband have prospered and are now
possessed of considerable property
Under the law passed in the interest
of the Younger brothers few years
ago, thirty-five years was made the
minimum sentence for a life-term per
son. Under that law person serving
twenty-three years, seven months and
eighteen days, with good time allow
ance, may be paroled. upon the action
of the state board of parole with the
unanimous consent of the state board
of pardons. Johnson has persistently
objected to any movement for his re-
lease.
johnson has more than s1,22S to his
credit in the state treasury, earnings
for overtime, and the money is accu-
mulating. He has refused the offer of
bosom friend near Graceville 70
make his home with him and rest the
remainder of his days, an offer made
from gratitude.

SKELETON OF GIANT.
REMAINS OF A BIG INDIAN FOUND
IN CALIFORNIA.
Seven Feet Four Inches Was tho
Height of Member of Extinct
Race Whose Bones Were
Dug Up.

San Francisco, Gallup to about
300 years ago n giant race of Indians
inhabited the coast region of Califor-
mia. Remains of these have been dis
covered in the islands of the Santa
Barbara channel. To William Alt
mann, assistant curator of the Golden
Gate Park Memorial museum belongs
the honr of discovering one OF the
tallest and best preserved skeletons
of this extinct tribe.
Altman utilized his vacation in ex-
cavating an old Indian burial mound
in the nursery of Thomas S. Duane.
two miles from Concord, in Contra
Costa county. The giant skeleton was
found ten feet from the surface, and
around 1t were large number OF NOR
tars and pestles. charm stones and
obsidian arrow heads.
The skeleton has not yet been
mounted, but the bones were assem-
bled on a table In the curators Of
fee and placed on private exhibition.
The bones are in good state of pres
ervation, being hard and firm, al
though brown with age. Two or three
of the vertebra are missing, and the
skull is broken into three parts. TheN
skeleton measures seven feet four
inches. The tibia is seventeen inch
es in length.
The skull is in great contrast with
that of the Digger Indian of the pres
ent day, being of much more intel
lectual type. The under jaw is square
and massive, being remarkably thick
and strong Either the dead Indian
was of great age or he subsisted on
hard food, as shown by his molars,
which are worn perfectly fat and
close to the gums.
The find is of the greatest import
ance to anthropologists the world
over, confirming as it does, the theory
advanced when the giant skeletons
were unearthed in the Santa Barbara
islands, that a superior race of lndi-
ans, physically and mentally, preced-
ed the Digger and other native races
of the present day. This is evidenced
also in the pestles and charm stones
found near the body.
The former are ornamented with
phallic carvings, whereas the pesties
made by the former and present day
Diggers, are not carved or ornament
ed in any way. The charm stones are
of baked clay. a beginning in the art
of pottery making, which are not
found with Digger remains.
This interesting find was made on
the Salvador Pacheco ranch. part of
which is occupied by Duane's nursery.
1t is Altmann's intention to make
further exploration of the mound at
an early date for other relics of the
bygone tribe.

Why whip the children when there is
another method? And never threaten the
children. To do so places one under an
unpleasant obligation. When the child
does something that he should not, simply
say to him in kind way, "Do not do
that" Then, provided the offense is COM
mitted again, you are at liberty to make a
choice of punishments as you choose.
One of the finest methods is, after the
deed, to ask: ''Did not tell you not to do
that" After a while the child will ask
you for a favor and you can then refuse
him by saying that he cannot have it be-
