MANNERS AT THE MOVIES.

There are manners, and, we'll, lei
us say un-manners, and the very
worst type of these last are shown al
the picture shows by the people who
read out loud the things thrown on
the curtains. In these days and
times everybody can read and nobody
thanks you for your gratuitous eff
forts in their education. 1t is just
as i'll bred as to 60 to the theater
having seen the play before, and tell
what is coming to somebody who
wants to watch the plot unravel for
himself.
BY the way, talking of moving pic
ture shows, it is certainly not good
breeding to giggle and laugh while
a picture is being shown which is
filled with pathos. The silent actors
are not hurt, but you are, for people
will see your want of manners.-Or-

MOTHER
Passes Of Her Son as a Girl for Eighteen
Years-Eyen Dad Doesn't Know.

VICTOR, Col, Jan. o-After mas
querading as girl is years the sex Of
Irene Mcynohan was learned today. He
was arrested IN La Junta by Sheriff A. FL.
Welnacke, who, because Of the masculine
appearance, decided that he was boy in
girls clothes. Irene was on his way to
visit his father in Bisbee. Ariz. Until the
holidays Irene had been a student in the
Victor High School and all his life had
been passed off as girl.
Mrs. Moynahan, when told that her
son had been arrested and that his sex
had been discovered, stated that she had
always passed him off as girl, because
of her disappointment in having two sons.
Not even her husband was aware OF
the boys sex. This was borne out by
the discovery Of letter in the boys
effects by the sheriff at La Junta.

Find Knives and Glass In
Cell Of Doomed Prisoner

SOMERSET, Pa, Jan. 8. -Sharpened
knives and powdered glass were found at
noon today in the cell of John w. Maus,
who has been sentenced to hang for the
murder of Mail Carrier Harrison Brown
last September. The prison authorities
believed that Maus, who had been heard
to perdtct that he would never be hanged,
planned either to attack one of the war
dens in an effort to escape, or proposed
to commit suicide.
The knives had been sharpened on the
cement floor Of the cell while Maus had
powdered the glass himself. The find
ing of the glass leads to strengthen the
belief that suicide had been contemplated,
rather than plot against one of the at
tendants at the jail.

School Teachers

OF Barbour county, we desire to ex-
tend special invitation to you, to be
present next Saturday at the Institute,
and while here take look at the High
School site on the hill near the M. E.
Church. Here you will find the partly
constructed foundation of the institution
that the citizens of Belington have said
by their vote that shall be erected for the
benefit of the present generation as well
as for those yet to come We feel proud
Of this, and will feel prouder still when it
is finished and as the years roll by it will
send forth from its walls boys and girls,
men and women that will be credit to
any community, thus perpetuating our
good start in public schools for the past
years and enriching the future.

Exhibit spoiled by the large apple.

In order to know how to select fruit
1t is necessary to know how the judge
is going to look at it, what points he is
going to observe particularly, and to
what character he will give the great
est weight. First of all, If he is good
Judge, he will examine the five apples
on plate and decide whether they
represent the correct form for the va
riety. For example, the Ben Da-
Wis sometimes produces rather fiat
apples, but typical Ben Davis Is
about as long as it is wide, and is
somewhat comic in shape. A plate of
fiat Ben Davis might be just as good
apples as any other, but would fail to
win prize because they were Off
form.
Size is usually next considered. The
mistake exhibitors frequently make il
to show their very largest specimens,
no matter if they are SO overgrown
that they are ribbed, when they ought
to be smooth, or lopsided, when they
should be erect. Large apples are
good exhibition material only when
they are of correct form and well col
ored.

TILTED BEAUTY
NOW REVENCED
Nemesis Pursued Man Who Caused Sui
cides for 20 Years.

FORT WORT, Texas, Jan. 7.-Nemes-
is, after following Henry Ziegland for 20
years, yesterday wreaked vengeance in a
remarkable manner
Two decades ago, Honey Grove, Zieg-
land, who was wealthy young farmer,
won the hand OF Matilda Tichnor, but
Tilted her few days before the day set
for their marriage. The girl, celebrated
beauty, became respondent and killed
herself. Then her brother Phil went to
Zieglahd's home and, after denounciDg
him bitterly, fred at him the bullet graz
ing Zeglands's cheek and burying itself
in nearby tree.
Young Tichnor, supposing he had kill
ed the man who had Tilted his sister, put
a bullet into his own head, dying instant
ly.
The two tragedies caused a big sensa-
ton all over Northern Texas at the time;
but finally were forgotten, and Ziegland
married rich widow and had become
immensely wealthy.
Today the planter and one of his sons
cut down the tree in which Tichnor's
bullet had lodged 20 years ago. The tree
proved too tough for splitting, SO small
change of dynamite was used.
The explosion, as fate would haye it,
discharged the long-forgoiton bullet with
such force that IL nierced ZieoJand's head
and be fell, MORALLY wounded dying an
hour later.
He explained the mysterious bullet to
his son as he lay on his death bed.

School Talk.

by G. o. MARSH, Supt. of Free Schools ]
Do the following statistic interest you
If you are interested in progressive edu-
cation, they will.
For the year 1911-12, the enumeration
of school youth in Barbour county was
1922, the enrolment $3.50, and the daily
attendance 1869.
Analysing these figures, we find that
only So pupils in every 100 enumerated
were in school every day of the term,
and "a pupils in every 100 enumerated
were enrolled IN our schools last year.
Stating this another way, &c school
youths in every 100 did not go to school
at all last year, and an average of AZ in
every 100 were absent every day of the
term.
1t is fact that a number OF persons
who are not 81 years old are teaching, or
attending schools of higher rank. How
ever much ls true, there are still too
many boys and girls growing up in ignor-
ance and idleness-not in school at all,
or attending only when it pleases their
fancy or the whims of their parents.
While the county record of attendance
is better than the state record, and avail
able figures show a big increase in at
tendance this year, there is vet woeful
lack of interest on the part of some par
ents in their children's education.
Parents, what answer have you to the
following questions: Is there child in
your home of proper school age who has
no legitimate reason for not being in
school? II so, are you not robbing that
child of the best heritage you could give it?
Teacher, do you know the names of all
school youths enumerated in your SUBJ
district that are not in school and why
they are absent?
Truant Officers, are you doing all you
Can to get dilatory, thotless parents to
send the children to school ?
Each of US can do something to keep
the boys and girls in school, What are
you doing?

Look to Your Plumbing.

You know what happens in house in
which the plumbing is in poor condi.
tion-everybody in the house is liable to
contract typhoid or some other fever.
The digestive organs perform the same
functions in the human body as the
plumbing does for the house, and they
should be kept in first class condition all
the time. If you have any trouble with
your digestion take Chamderlain's Tab

During the late autumn and early

fruit is exhibited. Representatives
from the College OF Agriculture are
frequently asked to act as judges at
these shows, and almost invariably
they report that splendid fruit was
shown, but much of it was so poorly
selected or arranged that it didn't do
justice to the grower and failed to win
the prizes 1t otherwise would.

The Tour Of a Smile

She turned and smiled at me;
And when she smiled at me went
And smiled at Mary Ann

So then he smiled at some one who
He saw when going by,
Who also smiled and ere he knew
Had wrinkles in his eye;
So he went to bis office then
And smiled right at his clerk,
Who put some more ink on his pen
And smiled back from his work.
So when his clerk went ome he smiled
Right at his wife, and she
Smiled over at their little child
As happy as could be;
And then their little child. she took
The smile to school, and when
She smiled at Teacher from her book
Teacher smiled back again.
And then the teacher passed on one
To little James Mcbride,
Who couldn't get his lessons done
No matter how he tried;
And Jamesy took it home and told

A uniform we'll selected plate.

OF more Importance than size is
the color. A red apple can not
be too highly colored, but with green
apples, like the Mann, Rhode Island
Greening and others, a heavy blush Is
undesirable. The russell apples should
be truly russell in color, and not a dull
yellow. Some apples are covered with
a waxy bloom which gives dull, but
very rich, color. This bloom is as
much part of the fruit as the skin.
and should not be rubbed off in the
mistaken effort to beautify natures
product by polishing.
One of the most important requisites
for good plate of fruit is uniformity.
Each apple should look as nearly like
every other apple on the plate as Is
possible. This means not only that all
should be of the same size, but of the
same shape and color. A man may
have one large, well-formed, richly-col-
ored specimen, and he uses this to boil
ster up plate Of four fair-colored, me-
dium-sized fruits. 1t is a serious mis-
take. The plate should be made uni
10TH, even LuOuSu Two OF three SXc6p-
tionally fine specimens have to be left

Every one knows that blemishes
should have no place on exhibition
fruit, but sometimes the question
arises as to what constitutes a blem-
ish. PROFESSIONALLY rotten spots, the
black marks Of sooty blotch and apple
scab, worm holes, San Jose scale
marks, and the like, are blemishes, but
what about broken stems, finger prints,
and russell spots on apples that should
not be russeted? These and others are
blemishes and will detract from the
exhibit.
In general, be sure the fruit is cor,
rectly named, is of the proper form for
the variety, is somewhat above me.

APPELLATE COURT aims
BLOW At TEcHNIcALITlEs
SACRAAIEN

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 3.-The first
decision of wide scope nuder the state
constitutional amendment Of 1911,
aimed to prevent the reversal OF jury
verdicts in criminal procedure, was
handed down by the third district court
OF appeals by Presiding Justice Chip
man and Associate Justice Burnett. The
decision extends the Interpretation Of
the amendment to include the granting
to superior courts Of the power of
denying new trials on technicalities
where the verdict is clearly justified by
evidence.
The occasion of this far reaching
decision was in the case of the people
versus Sam C. TOms6y, pending in the
Yolo county court. Tomsky wa.
charged with defrauding several Iolo
farmers. A jury verdict of guilty had
been returned when defendants coun-
sci protested that his client had never
been properly arraigned. Judge Ma
hon upheld the objection and set aside
the proceedings. District Attorney
Bailey appealed the case and the ap
pellate court reversed the judgment of
the, superior court, the jury verdict of
guilty being allowed to stand.
