Louis Hong, proprietor of the Jap
restaurant on the South side of town,
was arrested Saturday morning by
Marshal Watts on the charge of SELL
ing tobacco TO minors. He plead guilty
before Probate Judge Haag and was
let off with n fine of $29.05 after prom
ising never to repeat the offense. The
prevalence of the tobacco habit among
the school boys of the town has arous-
ed the attention of the school author
tiles and probation officer and an at
tempt is being made to minimize the
evil. II is claimed that boys can get
smoking tobacco in the majority of
places in town where tobacco is sold
and are doing so contrary to the state
law. Prof. Wallis, principal of the
high school, says that in practically
every Ease of delinquency in his school
the offender uses tobacco in some form
and that It is the most potent factor
influencing poor scholarship.

The Chair of Torture.

The most prominent building in the ancient city of Nuremburg is the cas tie. One of its two towers was used for torture: the other served as q prison The castle also contained q museum of horrors until it was purchased by the Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot, in whose possession these relics now lie One of these was the chair of torture It was very heavily made and studded over the seat and at the elbows with blunt topped spikes. To it the victim was tightly bound. and in short time discomfort began 10 manifest itself and in time became unbearable. During it's continuance the torture was increas- ed in several ways by means of wedges being passed between the legs and screws being applied to the thumbs until they began to bleed.

A Joint Concern.

When Richard Brinsley Sheridan was in distress, in early life. one of his resources was that of writing for the fugitive publications of the day. in which he was materially assisted by his wife, and many years after his entrance into the spheres of politics he was heard to say that "if he had stuck to the law he believed he should have done as much as his friend Tom Erskine; but" continued he. II had no time for such studies Mrs. Sheri- dan and myself were often obliged to keep writing for our daily leg or shoul- der of mutton; otherwise we should have had no dinner" One of his friends, to whom he confessed this. wittily replied, "Then perceive 1t was a joint concern"

An Old larch Tree.

Italy can boast of larch tree the age of which is estimated to be 2.O0O years. It is situated on the northern flank of Mont Chetip in the direction of the huts of Plan Veni. above Cour- mayeur, a few steps from the footpath that skirts the limits of the meadow land. Due allowance being made for the extreme slowness with which the larch grows. for the altitude above sea level Q.650 meters, at which it is root. ed and for its northerly exposure in the near neighborhood of the glacier. where the cycle of its development is barely five months every year. this venerable larch. untouched alike by woodman's ax and thunderbolt. cannot be less than 2.O0O years old.-Sc0ts- man.
