PROHIBITION EMPIIEs JAIL.

ut has surprised even the strongest
advocates of prohibition to see the ef-
feet that law has had in preventing
crimes and misdemeanors in Greenlee
county" says the Clifton (Ariz.)
Journal.
For many years the courts of this
country have been occupied with a
multiplicity of cases mostly resulting
from booze, and the several justice
courts have been kept busy sentenc-
ing prisoners to Jail or fining them.
For years the jails have been crowd
ed to capacity and the fines have often
run close to $1,000 in a single justice
court in one month. But conditions
have changed since the first OF the
year. The jail has been empty at some
places a good share of the time; cases
have been few and far between, and
most of them were slight misdemean-
ors."

The HOTEL BAR.

THE HOTEL BAR.
ut is time we ceased to insult the
American public by insisting that q
hotel cannot be run without a bar"
These are not the words Of a pro-
hibition fanatic but Of the proprietor
OF fine hotel and were spoken at the
annual meeting of the Northwestern
Hotel Mems association. The speaker,
Mr.. Leimbacker OF Gardner, N. D.,
addressed the convention on "Prohibi-
ton an Economic Proposition and
his vigorous handling of the subject
called forth great applause. From
the manager down to the bell hep"
he said. booze makes more trouble
than any other one thing in our bust
ness. II the causes for eight out of
every ten hotel failures were TO be
carefully analyzed, liquor would be
found to be the rock on which the
business was shattered. II is an in
disputable fact that more managers
lose their positions on account of
booze than through any lack OF real
efficiency. The same may be found
throughout the crew."

MISSOURI DRYING UP.

More than half the people OF Mis-
souri, live in territory absolutely dry.
For years more than half the territory
in the state has been dry, but the
large city population meant that a
majority of the people lived in wet
territory. AS the result, however, OF
very recent dry victories 50.2 per cent
in Missouri's entire population now
live in saloonless territory. Between
75 and so per cent Of the states ter
ritory is dry. Seventy-nine of the ia
counties are dry; nineteen dry with
the exception OF one town OF more
than $500 population. Sixteen coun-
ties and the city Of st. Louis are the
only entirely wet localities In the
state.

Anelents Used Gas Warfare.

The earliest use of deleterious gases
in siege warfare is recorded in the
history of the Peloponnesian wars
from 431 to 404 b. c. During this
struggle between the Athenians and
Spartans and their respective allies
the cities of Platea and Delium were
besieged.
Wood saturated with pitch and sui
phur was set on fire and burned under
the walls of these cities in order to
generate choking and poisonous fumes
which would stupefy the defenders
and render the task of the attacking
forces less difficult.
