to the President, formerly held by Fin.
ley J. Shepard. The appointee is far,il-
isr with this territory, having worked
in this section for q number of years,
and his appointment will be received
with great favor by the officials and ein.
ployees. as he is q man of wonderful,
personal popularity with all who have
ever worked with or for him. In fact,
one of the striking elements of his sue.
cess has been his enjoyment of the COM

failing fairness in treating with them.
He is strong believer il promoting to

their operations during the heavy traffic
that it was known the Worlds Fair
would develop, selected Mr.. Robertson
as the right party and appointed him
General Manager. The remarkable sue.
cess with which he handled that traffic
has been commented upon in most com
plimentary terms by railroad men in al
sections Of the country. In November

properties had then been unified, select

Why Roosevelt's Advice to Boys .!
Good.

No man is qualified to give advice to
boys who does not in his own per-
sonal conduct exemplify his teach
ings. The acute juvenile intuition is
quick to detect any discrepancy be.
twixt doctrine and practice. The in
sincere orator, however eloquent, is
likely to confront an indifferent or
frankly censorious audience.
When Colonel Roosevelt spoke at
the Hill School, the man re-enforced
the message. His mistakes have
been those of the man OF action, and
to such man much may be forgiv-
en-. The colonel spoke over the
shoulders OF his immediate hearers to
vast Invisible congregation. The
counsel he gave was sound and good =,
and his meaning was driven home by
the aggressive forcefulness of the
speakers challenging personality.
The colonel denounced what he
called the guineapig mentality OF
those who put ease and comfort
ahead of duty. Throughout his life
he has led and not merely pointed
the way in the direction of virile en-
deavor and "the bracing, manly vir-
tues" Many sermon aboundlng
in epigram and paradox, and fault
lessly correct in its observance OF the
rhetorical canons, has not had the
effect Of the colonel's 'saber strokes
Of Saxon speech" The address
Was heard and will be read in the
light of the extraordinary personal
history of an American whose career
has distanced that OF the heroes o
the books that are perused by boys

BREAKING A KICKING HORSE.

Noah Spears, a Bay Shore farmer,
has discovered way to break a
horse of kicking. Spears tells the
following story: 81 filed a stout
gunny sack with sand and suspended
it from the ceiling in the rear of the
stall by rope in such position
behind the horse that its heels
could have good play upon it. This
large pendulum, needing only a
strong power to start it, would swing
with clocklike precision as soon as
the horse began to play its acrobatic
stunts upon 1t. At the first kick the
bag swung away, only to return with
more force, giving the animal much
more than it had sent. This un-
expected return on the part Of the
bag caused the horse to kick harder,
but each time the bag returned hard
er and paid the animal with interest
Finally the horse, realizing that fur.
ther kicking would be fruitless
stopped kicking. The bag was al
lowed to hang in the same position
for an entire week, but no more use
for it was seen. .'-Wilmington News

ACT
 EFFECTIVE JUNE B
HANGING TOBE ABOLISHED
NO EQUIPMENT PURCHASED,
 DUE TO INSUFFICIENT APPROPRIATION.

Little Rock, May 1.-The act sub- stituting electrocution for hanging in the execution of criminals convicted of capital oftenses becomes effective June 13. It is provided that all such crimes committed before that time shall be punished by hanging, and only crimes actually committed after June 13 shall be punished by electrocution.
 Attorney General Moose has advised the penitentiary commission that it must make the necessary arrange ments for the establishment of a death chamber with all the necessary equip ment, at the penitentiary to carry out the provisions of the law, as hanging will be obsolete after that date, ex- |cept for crimes committed prior to June 13. The act appropriated only |$1, 300 for the purpose, but the lowest bid the commissioners have had for the chair and equipment is $2,900. The attorney general has advised that it is an emergency that must be met.
 A feature of the new law that will interest the press is the provision that '"no newspaper or person shall print or publish the details of the execution of criminals under this act. Only the fact that the criminal was executed shall be printed or published.

 Rock,

When the authorities of Graham county, Arizona, decided to look about or place in which to confine crimi- nals, they found natural depression In the side of hill. This was enlarged nto what might be called an artificial cave, divided into four compartments. The cave was excavated parallel to the Ide Of the mountain in which 1t was made, and daylight admitted by holes blown out of the wall with explosives, the widows being guarded by a nes work ot heavy steel bars The
 trance to the depression was also closed in the same manner, and a yestlbule or porch of masonry built out from 1t to provide qua rters for the sheriff and his assistants. This vestI. pule is also divided into compart- ments, which are connected by gates of steel bars. The only way of enter '1g the prison is through the vestibule ot masonry and in order to escape fhe inmates would have to cut their way through three sets of bars which are an inch in thickness, as the win oo"o oA C oO AiSh up dDOFo lu0 IOCh forming the floor of the cells that they could not reach them.
