(From the New York Tribune.)
Henry Ford. standing in the lobby
of the Hotel Belmont last night, said
the plan of giving employment to ex-
convicts was SO simple that there was
nothing in it to talk about.

Mr. Ford said this after several ques-
tions had been put to him. He thought
it was all SO natural and so regular
that there wasn't anything to it,
well, will you put any man just out
Of prison to work." he was asked.
"Why certainly" he answered.
How many men have you who are
ex-conyicts?" was another question.
"Oh, suppose between 100 and $50

Mr.. Ford smiled affably, and answer

BRINGING UP CHILDREN.
There Are Some Curious Customs In
This Queer World.

There has been much discussion over
the proper bringing up of children, but
ideas continue to differ. And the far
Their you get away from home the
stranger the ideas seem.
The Filipino father cries out with
proud delight as his three-year-old girl
baby takes her puff at her first cigar.
Among the Seri Indians Of the gulf
Of California the father is the last one
expected to have any influence on the
children. The mother rules the young
er members Of the family, and when
she must enforce her authority by
physical force she calls, not on the IA
ther, but on one of her brothers or
some other male adult of her family.
The father must never chaStiSe his chill

y Navajo father administers punish
ment to his children very much as any
other father does, but the Navajo boy
has Il means of protection denied to
white boys. He has only to catch Il
rat by his OWN unaided efforts. From
the moment he has accomplished this
feat, no matter how young he ma be,
his father may not lay hands on him.
The children Of the Point Barrow

A GLIMPSE OF sWINBURNE.
Rayard Taylor Called Him Perverse,
Wiliful and Unreasonable.

Rayard Taylor Called Him Perverse,
Wiliful and Unreasonable.
In all important respects except n
l found him to be very much what I
anticipated. writes Laura Stedman in
the North American Review, quoting
Bayard Taylor's impression Of Swim
burne. The exception is instead of
being Il prematurely blase young man
Of the world, he is rather a wilful, per-
verse, unreasonable, spoiled child. Ills
nature is still that of the young Shell
ley, and my great fear is that it will
never be otherwise.
He needs the influence Of q nature
stronger that his in everything but the
imaginative faculty-such a nature as
Byron's was to Shelley. q He has
a weak moral sense, but his offences
arise from a colossal unbalanced affec-
tation. This, or something like it, is q
disorganizing element in his nature
which quite obscures the organizing
that is artistic-sense. What I admire
in him, yet admire with a feeling Of
pain, is the mad, unrestrained prepon-
derance Of the imagination. 1t is a
godlike quality, but he sometimes uses
it like a devil. He greatly interests
my intellect, but does not touch me
magnetically.
He could have no power over me, but
on the contrary, I felt that I should
be able to influence him in a short
time. l had a letter from him the
other day which shows that he feels
an intellectual relationship between us.
Now, this is not a question Of relative
poetic power, but Of q certain diversity
Of qualities, and I don't mean to be
egotistic in saying that I might perform
somewhat of the same service for him
as Byron for Shelley. I feel that Of
it is not already too late) I could help
him to some degree of poise. Of system,
Of law; in short, art
In this sense he moves my deepest
sympathy, for 1 see now the matter
that might be nodded into q splendid
poet relapsing into formless conditions.
1t is sad. 1t is tragic, and if this fam
cy Of mine be foolish, there it is, new
ertheless. Without this sense of Civ.
ing assistance a week alone with SWIM
burne would be lntolerable to me or
any other human being.

GOSSIP OF THE.
WINTER LEAGUE.

Wilbert Robinson will take his rockies
and regulars to Daytona, Fla, next
spring to get into shape to catch the
Braves. Augusta was turned down by
the Dodgers.
Unquestionably the farmers will not
be able to make their annual complaint
of the dearth of hands next summer If
the different leagues keep cutting down
the limit Of players on their clubs.
Now that Jimmy Austin has jumped
to the Federal league, Branch Hickey
Of the Browns will be under the pain
full necessity of finding another sinner
who is willing to manage a baseball
team on the Sabbath.
Eleven men in the American league
were acutely unhappy for %protracted
periods during the race last season.
One has only to look under the hit
batsmen column of Walter Johnson's
pitching average to confirm the fact.
The White Sox will start out on their
training trip to the coast on Feb. II.
Comiskey wishes his charges to get an
early start, so as to be in good playing
condition for several exhibition games
which he hopes to arrange for the be-
ginning Of the Panama-Pacifc exposi-
ton.
Harry Howell, one of the best pitch
ers in the American league when he
was with st. Louis, has signed to UNI
pire in the Federal league. Jeff John
ston of the American association staff
and Louis Fife of the Western league
will also umpire for the Feds next
season.
George Stallings. speaking of the
March 1 training camp rule, said that
he had extended invitations to most Of
the Braves to visit his southern plan
tation early next spring and that he
could not prevent any Of them timber
ing up with a baseball if they felt SO
inclined.
There is a possibility that George
Stallings may give Jack Coombs a trial
next spring. The miracle man. was
the only manager in the big show who
did not at once waive claim to the once
formidable Athletic twirler. Coombs,
who is a free agent, is anxious to come
back with the Braves.

IoDIDE OF NITROGEN.
An Explosive So Deadly That to Make
It Is Suicide.

An Explosive So Deadly That to Make
1t Is Suicide.
Explosives are solids which under
certain conditions suddenly change
into heated gas occupying many times
the original space of the solids.
Ordinary gunpowder when fired turns
into gas, Of which the volume is 1000
times as great as that of the powder.
No wonder the bullet in front of it
leaves the muzzle of the rifle in a
hurry.
Today there are scores, wen hun
dreds, Of different sorts of explosives
known to science. Some, such as lyd-
dite, require a very considerable shock
to explode them. Others, such as nj
t~roglycerin, are fearfully dangerous to
handle, for a few extra degrees of
warmth or Il very slight jar is sufi-
cient to turn them instantly into gas.
OF the latter type there is nothing
quite so unstable as iodide of nitrogen.
1t has to be made in alcohol. When
allowed to dry it appears as q brown
powder, and so unstable is this pow
der that a touch with Il feather will
set it off. The experiment has been
tried of leaving Il few grains upon a
table mixed with a few grains of
sugar. The first bluebottle that flew
on the table and began to crawl among
the grains caused an explosion.
The mere Earring Of the air by a loud
shout or q heavy footstep is sufficient
to detonate iodide of nitrogen, and it
need hardly be added that no one in
his senses would attempt to make
this terrible stuff. To do SO in any
quantity would be equivalent to com
hitting Suicide.-Pearson'S Weekly.

CLOTH AND CLOTHES.
Why Some Garments Keep and Others
Easily Lose Their Shape.

Easily Lose Their Shape.
Every one-in this country, at least
wears clothes. They have to. Conse-
quently every one is more or less in
terested in the question Of clothes.
1t is not so easy to know good cloth
as it seems. Many people, depending
on texture, feel. weave and so forth,
think that they are judges Of cloth.
And when, after buying what they be-
ieve to be a good piece of cloth, it does
not wear well they are greatly sur
prised.
Ihe~ durability Of cloth depends large
ly upon the length of the individual
fbers. If the fibers are long and curl
Ing they form a close and strong
weave. The cloth does not crack or
Wear out at the seams or folds because
OF the length of fiber, nor does it rub
as easily by surface wear because it is
more springy or elastic. Short fbers,
on the other hand, have much less
binding quality because they do not in
tertwine.
The difference between two suits or
dresses in keeping their shape is
largely due to this same thing. A real
" first class cloth, properly made and
lifted, hardly ever requires pressing.
1t is elastic. and if it is hung up after
having been worn for Il day or two it
Will go right back into shape. The
constant sending of trousers to the
tailor to have n crease put in is a
sign that the cloth was not made of
long fibers.
III you want your suits or dresses to
wear we'll and to look well first make
sure that the cloth is woven from long
tibers.-New York American.
