DISTRICT JUDGE IGNORING
TNDETFRNTIN SENTENCE

Austin, Texas, April 15.-Only a very
small percentage Of the district judges
of the state are complying with the
requirements of the indeterminate SEN
tence law and as a result the court of
criminal appeals, in passing upon cases
appealed, is compelled TO reform the
iudcm -nts. according to captain E. P
Smith. clerk Of the court of criminal
appeals.
Under this law, where the jury as
sesses the punishment OF the convicted
person, when sentence is passed by
the court it is provided that the court
shall make the sentence for the mini
mum allowed for the offence, and the
maximum at the term fixed by the
Jury, but the district judges usually
pronounce the sentence at the term
fixed by the jury.

A Rare, Rare Man.

William H. Handy. short story
writer and novelist, is a great lover
of folks and makes friends with all
sorts and conditions of men. One day
while on an outing In the OZarks he
got hill billy who was something
of character to accompany him on a
fishing excursion in order to study the
type. The two men spent the day In
the woods together and returned to
camp old friends and then Mr.. Handy
learned that he was not the only one
on the expedition who had been study
ing his companion. AS they shook
hands in parting the hill billy said:

Pets and Broken Hearts.

The dog of Mistral, the Provencal
poet, died the day after Mistrals re-
cent death. 1t is fairly common
thing for dogs. cats. canaries and 9th
er pets to die a few days or even
hours after their masters. But do
they die of grief? II is not likely.
A Manayunk physician examined
the corpse of canary that had sue.
cumbed with its little mistress. The
canary's death, the examination
showed, was due not to broken heart,
but to scarlet fever, the malady to
which its little mistress had herself
succumbed.
From this and from kindred post
mortems 1t is surmised that pets, when
they die simultaneously with their
owners, have become infected with
the disease that carried their owners
off-measles, diphtheria, typhoid. The
death-from-grief story is pretty, but
alas, II won't wash.

NO DRINK, MORE GROCERIES.

A temperance city means a marked
increase in the grocery trade, says the
Nashville (Tenn.) Banner. Such is
the consensus of opinion among the
larger stores; and to a majority of
the small establishments In the resi-
dental districts the change has meant
much more prosperity than the open
saloon allowed them. Credit accounts,
long overdue, paid up, more cash pay
ments and larger trade in the staples
is the record since the passing of the
saloon. When questioned, only those
who had maintained saloon annexes
in connection with their grocery stores
bemoaned the passing of the saloon,
and even they admitted that the
change had meant more grocery bust
ness. The remainder were emphatic
in their declarations that the closing
of the drink shops had meant so much
to them that they would fight their
return with all vigor.
