THE FINISH OF LORD TERRIERS.

In THE eighteenth century the hang
i man was the busiest man In Eng
land. The death penalty was inflicted
for the most tritling misdemeanors.
Men were hanged for stealing spoons,
for defraudlng their creditors, for per-
Jury, arson, disturbance of the peace.
There was no discrimination I'm favor
of the women. Scores of servant
girls were hanged in those grand old
days for offenses which would scarce
ly draw reprmand In these easier
times. Naturally. the hangman and
his assistants, and the jailors, and all
who had to do with the condemned,
were calloused and brutal; and a
doomed steer at the stock yards re-
ceives more consideration now than
did the doomed human being then. He
was hustled from the prison to cart
or sledge and hauled to the gallows
without ceremony, and arrived at the
fatal tree he was turned OFF, as part
of the days work.
Yet snobbery was possible even in
this dismal matter of execution. The
treatment that was good enough for a
poor but respectable thief wasn't good
enough for a blooming nobleman; and
the plain people of London never knew
how artistic hanging could be until
Laurence Earl Ferrers met his fate at
Tyburn.
Lord Ferrers had the blood of Plan
tagenet kings In his veins. His ances-
tors for ages had distinguished them

In Chile, While. automobiles are quite
common, the two-seated runabout Is
not common, and when seen generally
has IA small seat behind for the chauf-
feur. This Is demanded by custom,
for even though the owner of the car
Is driving he must always have the
chauffeur with him in case of need, MS
1t would never do for the owner to

Letter from Mrs. Mollie Phillips

3629 Inter Lake, Seattle, Wash.
 Aug. 19, 1917. Please find enclosed $1.00 for Trib- une till this time next year as we like to get the old home paper and also read the many letters from old friends who have left there and doing better somewhere else. We are pleased with this country and live two blocks from Lake Union where it is cool and pleasant all the time.
 Too cool here for flies, mosquitoes and such pests. Since the canal was opened from the Sound to Lake Wash ington the boats pass here. They cele- brated July 4th opening the canal by a parade of boats seven miles long and the foremost one was said to be the one that Perry went to the north pole in. They had sub-div!ng matches and diving off of 50 foot bridge. A 14-year-old girl won the prize for the best diver, but this is not what started to write you about. l want ed to tell your readers, especially those who are not doing much there, about American Lake. It is one half hour from here, where they are to house and drill the soldiers. There IS an immense amount of work there and will be for four months yet. They can't get enough carpenters, or 6 thousand there now and 1000 trucks, give $500 per day and plenty of good board for 90 cents per day and you furnish your own blankets, or go to Tacoma and get room and bed for $2.OO per week. There are two trains go back and forth daily with 20 coach es on each train to carry the men free to their work and back to bed but they all eat at camp. Men there want ing to build hotels or stores are offer ing S1.00 an hour for carpenters and can't get them. Some of the men are putting in extra time for the other fellow as this work for the govern ment is 8 hours per day and the days here are 2 ,hours longer than there. You can get your bunk free in camp if you want it. This training camp is ten miles square. They are putting in water works and paving streets as they go, making everything perfect ly sanitary. When they get this done they aim to build another more sub stantial just like this one, only of brick, stone and concrete. This one is not supposed to last but five years; in other words they iare supposed to get the latter done in five years. Times are getting better all the time. The war has boomed labor and prices. Bud Busch is here doing fine. His last pay check for two weeks was $65.S5. He works in one of the ship-yards. Roy is a cook in the bakery and Cecil is one of the carpenters at American Lake. Guess they will both have to serve their country but probably never leave American Lake. John has a steady job in factory. He says tell anyone coming out here that the latch-string hangs on the outside. He has new full set of teeth and is having his ears treated. We are not getting rich nor trying to. We are not laying up treasures here on earth, for the Lord has already bless ed us with more than we can take with us when we die.
 We recently met with Charlie ard They Ramsey at camp meeting. They overlooking we'll and prosperous.
 Respectfully,
 Mrs. Mollie Phillips.
