Books in Prison.

Prison literature has many fine pro-
ductions to its credit in prose as well
as poetry. In his prison at Athens,
Socrates completed his great argument
for Immortality; in Roman dungeon
Galileo made some of his greatest dis
coveries. In his prison in Wartburg
castle Luther translated the New Test
ament into the German language. Dur
ing his twelve years in Bedford Jail
Bunyan dreamed his immortal dream
Of the "Pilgrim's Progress" Sir Wal
ter Raleigh wrote the fragmentary
history of the world to beguile the long
years of his Imprisonment in the
Tower of London. Much of the New
Testament also is prison literature.
Some of the finest of the epistles of
st. Paul were written during his i'm
prisonment at Rome, and the Book of
the Revelation of st. John was writ
ten while he was an exile on the island
prison of Patmos.-London Chronicle.

DICKENS IS SENTENCED
RETRIAL DENIED AND PRISONER

Longmont Man Protests Innocence
When Asked by Judge for State
ment After Verdict.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Boulder. Rienzi Dickens. found
guilty by jury several months ago
H. Dickens, was denied a retrial by
Judge Neil F. Graham in the District
Court here and sentenced by him to
spend from eighteen to twenty-seven
years in the state penitentiary.
Following the sentence, Dickens,
who has been at liberty on $4,000
bail, was placed in the county Jail,
while his lawyers were granted sixty
days in which to file second bill OF
exceptions. An attempt will be made
at once to obtain permission from the
Supreme Court to release Dickens on
bail, pending the hearing Of the writ
of error.
The ruling and sentence came as a
dramatic conclusion to the three days
of argument for a retrial.
Dickens turned pale and clung to
the edge of table as though he felt
weak. Judge Graham then asked him
if he had anything to say before SEN
tence on him was pronounced.
Dickens slowly arose and with
trembling steps advanced until he
stood just in front of the judge. In a
low voice, shaken with agitation, he
said:
mo, haven't much to say, only that
regardless of the verdict in this case
and with those twelve men against
me, l didn't kill my father, and fur
thermore, I know nothing whatsoever
of the case or whoever committed the
crime"
Dickens will be held in the county
jail pending the application to the SUI
preme Court for permission Of release
on bond, or, If that fails, pending the
hearing of the writ Of error by that
tribunal II the Supreme Court fails
to grant him a new trial, he will be
taken at once to Canon City to begin
the serving Of his long sentence.

Repeal Of Mine Tax Laws Urged.

Denver.-Colorado State Changers
placed themselves on record concern
ing a number of the most important
propositions which had come before
the annual three days session, which
closed with banquet. Included among
the last items to be acted upon was
the proposed educational code to be
submitted to the State Legislature,
which was unanimously endorsed. The
farmers also urged the repeal of pres
ent laws relating to the taxation Of

be taxed on full valuation, as is farm

farmers, particularly the bond issue
