WILL EMPLOY COBBLER
 AT INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
Many Other Matters Discussed and Dismissed by Board of Control
 Yesterday.

For the purpose of teaching the in mates of the state industrial school more and better trades, with a view to- ward the future when they shall be re- leased from the school, the board of control in their executive session yes terday took into consideration the ad- visibility of hiring for the school an expert cobbler and shoemaker, to have charge of classes in the school and to show the boys not alone how to mend their own shoes, but how to make the finished article complete
 Other matters were considered by the board in numbers. Thomas HightOWer till lately an inmate of the school at Fort Grant, was placed with lis -lother near Mesa on condition that he behave himself, and Harry Miller was dis charged on condition that he report to his mother in Los Angeles and that he remain under the surveillance of the juvenile court of that city
 H. C. Heller was employed at the in dustrial school as tailor to teach the students there the business of making clothes, and cleaning and pressing the same, and Miss Lily c. Edwards was employed by the board as an additional teacher in the institution
 insurance Tor dQdllOnS to the state library at the state house consisting of the 800 volumes of the Northwest and Southwest Reporter, was purchased to the extent of $500.
 The bid of the Art Paint and Wall Paper store for the painting of the ex- terior of the state house excepting the roof, for the sum of $320 was accepted by the board and the company was ordered to proceed with the work.
 The bids formerly issued to the board for two spans of horses for the state industrial school Were rejected and the secretary of the board was instructed to proceed in advertising for further bids on either horses or mules
 The state law provides that all state motor vehicles need not bear state li- cense numbers. and in order to avoid conflict between state and other ma chimes and secretary of the board was instructed to draw up plans for distinctive number plate for all state machines.

TESTS OF SENSE OF SMELL
Much More Acute In the Male
Than In the Female.

Some interesting experiments have
been made in France on the relative
acuteness of the sense of smell in in
dividuals. A series of solutions of oil
of cloves, artificial musk, extract of
garlic, bromine and oil of almonds,
were prepared by successive dilutions
until the limit of perception was
reached, and then the solutions were
placed unfortunately, and submit
ted to several persons of both sexes to
classify them properly by the sense
of smell.
The results showed, that, on the av-
erage, the sense of smell was much
more delicate in the males than in the
females; but the degrees of keenness
ranged widely as between individuals.
Thus, three male observers were able
to detect one part of oil of bitter al
monds in two million parts of water;
though its presence was not revealed
by chemical test; but others of both
sexes could not detect the presence of
this same product in solutions of al
most overpowering strength.
The following figures give the aver
age limit of delicacy of perception:
Oil of cloves-(males, in sS,12S; fe-
males, in 50.667); artificial musk

WATERY BLISTERS ON FACE

Smithville, Ind.-"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old, had a few
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
a small blotch on the skin. She kept
her whole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
I'VE used a number of remedies
which seemed to give relief for short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got cake of Cuti'
cura Soap and box of Cuticura Oint'
ment I washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap
then applied the .Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days time. Inside of two weeks time
her face seemed well. That was eight
months ago and there has been no re-
turn of the trouble" (Signed) Mrs

CHICKEN, AND AGAIN CHICKEN
Confederate Veteran Has His Own
Ideas of What Should Constitute
a Perfect Menu.

Speaking of fried chicken, hot bis
cult, and peach cobbler," said the Con-
federate veteran, you may recall Gen.
Robert E. Lees famous dictum:
Bring me fried chicken. Not one
fried chicken, not two fried chickens.
Just fried chicken-unlimited fried
chicken
Corn fritters and sweet potatoes
arc part of fried chicken in my opin-
ion.
Some people lay great stress on
the hot biscuit casualty list, but am
willing to take two dozen risks at a
sitting in case the biscuit is small,
flaky, white inside like snow, hot. with
plenty of firm, prime butter.
Peach cobbler is best served in a
soup bowl. and it should nearly fill the
bowl There should be always pitch
er of sauce favored with vanilla. wine,
and highly sweetened.
THE sauce never has enough wine
in it. To overcome this defect pour a
quantity of the sauce over the cobbler
and then add a wine glass full of old

Glngdom was more extensive than she
had thought, the court life would also
be more brilliant.
Gloria had not long to wait for her
father. An old-fashioned carriage COW
ered with mud and drawn by fat bay
horses drew up before the drug store.
Out of the vehicle a somewhat pom
derous individual pulled himself-a
smooth-shaven man who appeared to
be something over fifty, with heavy
Jaws and piercing eyes which looked
clear through you from under beetling
eyebrows. With cry the girl flung
herself upon him and smothered him
with kisses.

Unique Russian Eating House.

Possibly the most generous meal
in the world is at the railway halt be-
tween st. Petersburg and Moscow"
writes a traveller. "It is about mid
night. You walk into a huge hall.
spread with hot and cold meats, tea,
vegetables, fish of all kinds to be SAM
pied, vodka at hand. Everybody walks
round and takes what he wants at the
moment. The train sounds the depart
ing note. The passengers walk out
and say at the door what they have
eaten and drunk and pay. Russia is
said to be a dishonest country, but
this system is profitable"

The reasons David Kerr had for not
sswishing to get into communication
with any one in Belmont were several,
but the most potent was his desire to
be uninterrupted while engaged in
studying his daughter and evolving
some plan whereby she could be taken
from Belmont before her slightest
suspicion had been aroused.
One episode in their tour of the
house had given him much comfort.
Gloria had paused in the old-fashioned
parlor and gazed long at his life-sized
portrait, done in oils, over the marble
mantel Then she had looked about
the room, and not finding what she
sought, had asked:
Where is one of my mother?"
There is none" he confessed, and
added quickly, "but I'm going to have
one painted for you. That was given
me recently by the First Ward club"
Whats the First Ward club?"

Politics.! Do you know anything
about politics?"
David Kerr almost smiled.

bered that the state is developing fast,

years hence the state should be in a
position to pay the expenses of a con-
stitutional convention while making

We ought to be able to get along
four or five years with the present

The trouble with amendments is that
the people give very little thought to
them. They are voted for whether

main argument against constitutions

PARENT RESPONSIBLE FOR CHILD
By G.. H. ParkhurSt.

A few days ago | attended a meet
ing at which one of the speakers was
young man who is the principal
workers in a boys club He is one
who understands himself and also the
boys he is dealing with, as we'll as
their relation to their home life.
He commenced his remarks by say
ing Fathers and mothers, / know
your boys better than you do, and it is
high time you commenced to know
them yourselves. You let them run the
streets and haven't them with you
enough of the time to find out what
kind of things they are, or to make
them better than what they are. You
think they are all right, but they are
not. They are all wrong, a good many
of them, and you haven't found it out,
and it is your business to find it out,
and you are unfatithful parents be-
cause you haven't"
This was plain talk, but for the sake
of illustrating what he meant and in
order to back up his statement, he
went on farther to say;
81 had occasion recently to talk with
the mother of one of my club boys
about a crime which he had committed.
She was greatly shocked and could not
understand how boy so dear and so
good as her son Charlie could ever
have done such thing. l said to her
he may be very dear, but he is not SO
good as you think; on the contrary,
he is bad from away back, and gam
bles every evening.
We could, to the advantage of the
boys and to the comfort of the home,
introduce little of the Chinese meth
cd of discipline. When our Oriental
brethren have lived for while out
from under the depressing influence of
the Manchu regime they will be able
to give us as good lessons in certain di-
rections as we are able to give them in
other directions. Their method of
keeping the boys straight may be
little harsh and may sometimes result
in injustice, but their policy has in it
not only severity, but an amount of
reasonableness.
If Chinese boy misbehayes it is not
charged to native depravity, nor to the
police, but to his parents, and next to
them to the schoolmaster; and that,
not only while the boy is in school,

INJECT ether into
ARM OF PATIENT
New Method Of Administering
ADaGSthGtiC

New York, Jan. Either was ad-
ministered simultaneously for the first
time in Brooklyn last Saturday and
was highly successful The injection
was made by DR.. G. Frank Sammis in
tn Kings County Hospital. The sub
ject, a private patient, was suffering
from broken knee cap. The name Of
his patient was not made public.
DR.. Sammis suggested that the new
method of administering the anaes-
thetic be used. The injection was
made directly into the veins of the
patients arm, and within two minutes
from the time that the injection was
made the patient was under the infiu-
ence of the anaesthetiC.
Then the operation of sewing" the
Lneecap together was performed by
DR.. R. NJ. Rome of Clermont avenue.
After the patient came from under the
influence of the ether there was no
nausea and the patient was as normal
as though the knife never had been
used.
This avoidance of nausea physicians
have been trying to accomplish for
years. They believe the new method
will rob operations of half their hor-
row, not only because of no unpleas-
ant after effects of the ether, but be
cause it does away with the terrifying
cone and the unpleasant necessity oil
inhaling the vapor 1t is the physical
aspect of the old way, the doctors de.
clare, that causes half the patients
fear of an operation.
DR., Sammis declined last night tc
discuss any phase of the case in whict
he had taken so prominent a part, al
though the details had already become
public through other media.

The Legislature that meets next
summer will have before it the ques-
ton of calling a constitutional con-
vention. 1t would be advisable thery-
fore for the members of the Legisla-
ture to talk the matt8r over with their
respective constituents with the view
of finding out whether or not there is
majority sentiment in favor of such
q convention.
There is no doubt that there is need
of changes in the organic law A con-
stitution could be framed that would
be Of very great benefit to the state
that would, il fact, contribute a great
deaf to it's prosperity, but it is ques-
toin-whether it wouldn't be advisable
to wait awhile longer. One reason IS
/ that within the last year or two a
number of the states have adopted
new constitutions, and in them there
are some rather radical provisions. 1t
is by no means certain that these in
novations will prove to be for the best
interests of the people of these states.
That will be determined within four
or five years. If we should in this
state wait until we know the result of
the experiments which those states
are making we would be in a better
position to make a new constitution.
Another reason is that there are
some things we should have in new
constitution which the people are hard
ly ready to vote on yet One is that of
taxation. There should be assessors
in each county and also a state board
of equalization, A constitution that
provides for assessors would, in all
probability be defeated, and hence the
money spent on a constitutional con-
vention would be wasted 1t is prob
able that in the course of very few
years the people themselves will see
the necessity of having assessors in
stead of permitting property owners tc
assess their own property-at least
the majority will, and hence a new
constitution providing for the assess
ment of property by assessors could
be passed.
There is another thing that is wortf
considering. 1t is that there is NJ
money now in the state treasury witt
which to pay the expenses Of a con
stitutional convention. 1t may be saiC
that the state is in as good financia
condition now as it will be ten years
hence, unless the Legislature appre
ciates the necessity Of keeping the ap
preparations within the revenues. Thu
answer to that argument is that thu
amount required for pensions is be
coming smaller, and the decrease il
the pension charge will be rapid from

TO KEEP TOMB.
French Government Will Not Take
Rock From Sarah Bernhardt.

Paris, January Mime Sarah Bern
hardt has been assured that her tomb
which has been prepared for her on a
rock in the Atlantic ocean will not be
taken from her by the French govern
ment.
The tomb is hewn out of a rocky pc
ninsula which touches Belle Isle, the
island off the Brittany coast, where
Nine. Bernhard spends her holidays.
At low tide the rock which contains
the tomb joins the island, while at high
tide it becomes an island itself
After the actress had prepared the
tomb doubt was expressed regarding
her title to the rock, and a lawyer in
formed her some months ago that Il
did not belong to her Nine. Bern
hardt has now received definite as
surance through Nine Delcasse, wife
of the minister of marine, that her title
will not be challenged.
