'HICHBR0W BOOKS
FAv0R|TES With
many PRISONERS
Records of Penitentiary Ipdi-
cate That Inmates Show In
c|ination for Best Kind
of Literature.

Lincoln, Neb., May 20-Prisoners
in the Nebraska state penitentiary
are interested in intellectual publ
cations, reports from the prison to
the state library commission show.
Secretary Charlotte Templeton OF
the Library commission and Miss
Hattie Williams, state institution
librarian, receive monthly reports
from the various institutions on
the class of reading matter which
their inmates patronize most. The
penitentiary report shows that the
prisoners there read magazines and
highbrow literary publications in
preference to those Which run to
light stuff.
Popular Mechanics was taken out
SO times in a single month. The
Scientific American and the Satur-
day Evening Post scored &c. and
the Literary Digest %. The Popular
Science Monthly has been added,
in response to number of requests
for it.
The convicts show a preference
for periodicals on outdoor life. One
mans card had these marked on it
as his favorites:
: Base Ball, Country Gentleman,
Outing, Travel and Field and
Stream.
When it comes to books, fiction
leads, and then biography and his
tory follow. General literature has
its clientele among the convicts,
and books of travel have many
readers. Religious works are we'll
patronized.
Allen V. Grammer, convicted and
sentenced to die for the murder of
Mrs. Lulu Vogt at Elba. is de-
voted reader of Governor Nickel
vie's farm paper. Grammer's appli-
cation for a rehearing is now before
the state supreme court.
y Select Their Own Books.
An innovation in state institution
library work is being provided for
at the Hastings insane asylum,
where a large room is being fitted
up as a reading room for the in
mates. Here they may select their
own books and read in quiet. The
room is located in the recreation
building.
Heretofore at hospitals for the
insane the practice has been that
patients had to do their reading in
Al Ie
tiary convicts read in their cells,
and they have to- choose books and
magazines from printed lists, in
stead of being afforded an oppor-
tunity to inspect volume before
taking it out
The state library commission
hopes to establish reading room
at the prison whenever any more
building additions are made there.

Wants to Know Why Papers
Paw Hiqh Insurance Rates

Lincoln, May 2O.-Why newspa-
pers in the smaller cities and vii
lagos of Nebraska are required to
pay higher rates for fire insurance
on their plants, when there are so
few newspaper fires, is something
that Field Secretary Buck of the
Nebraska Press association would
like to have explained. He has
written from Harvard to Fire Com
missioner Beach, requesting data
from the latter's office records dur
ing the last five years, to show how
many newspaper plants burned and
what the total loss amounted to.
According to Buck, the chance of
salvage in newspaper office is
greater than in a mercantile estab-
lishment, and yet the newspaper
often pays a higher rate than mer-
camille risk similarly situated.

fish from the hatchesies at Gretna
and Valentine to be planted in ponds
and streams throughout the state.
Under an arbitrary ruling promul-
gated by the railroads, under au-
thority of the United States Rail
road administration, the former
charge of S. for hauling the fish car
from one station to another and set
ting il out on the track has recently
been advanced to SIS. This means
that whenever the car is taken on a
FISH distributing tour, the railroads
will charge SIS for every stop made.
Work May Have to Stop.
At this rate, the appropriation
made by the legislature for trans
portation will soon be exhausted
and the work will have to stop or a
big deficiency will be created for the
next Legislature to take care of. The
state fish hatcheries exist primarily
for the purpose of supplying it's wa
ters with fish and if they are pre-
vented from doing SO by burden
some railroad regulation they might
as we'll go out of business.
Superintendent O'Brien of the
fish hatcheries and Chief Game
Warden Roster have had the matter
up with railroad officials, and fail
ing to obtain any satisfaction from
that quarter, they called the Rail
way commissions attention to the
situation. Correspondence with
railroad dignitaries as high up as
Hale Holden brought the response,
That we can't help it; the govern
ment orders us to make this change
and we have to do So"
Lieutenant Governor Barrows
suggests that the State Railway
commission, under the laws Of Ne
braska, is empowered to fix rates
for traffic within the state. He also
asks that it use it's efforts to get a
fair rate from the federal railroad
administration.
The commission y had already
opened correspondence on the SUBJ
ject with the federal authorities,
and it will forward to them copy
of the lieutenant governors letter.

, Why go limping round with ach-

chafed, sore and swollen you can
hardly get your shoes on or off?
Why don't you get a 25-cent box

'"Tiz" makes your feet glow with

Lincoln, Neb., May 20.-Acting

the first exchanges with the Germans
therefore will occur without the parti-
cipation of Italy and it is said that this
procedure will go forward steadily until
the signing of the treaty. The first read
ing with the Germans probably will occur
on Friday or Saturday when the pact will
be presented. A day or two will be given
for questions concerning interpretations
Of different phrases Of the convention
without however, involving a prolonged
discussion. The French view is that the
Germans may ask for two weeks delay to
permit them to return to Weimar, with
an additional week for discussion of
the points presented after their return
from the temporary capital. This is
a matter of conjecture, however, as
there is no precise information as to
Germany's intention. Reports from
Berlin are somewhat contradictory
concerning GermanT's purposes, as some
reports Indicate that an early signing of
the treaty is probable, while others say
that it is doubtful whether the pact will
be signed at all. These reports coming
from different sources indicate a lack of
concerted attitude as to the treaty and
show that there is disposition to leave
the decision largely with German Pleni-
p0tentiaries who are now at Versailles.
Rome, April 29th. The Chamber of
Deputies tonight voted confidence III the
Cabinet by a vote of 282 to 40 the latter
votes being cast by Socialists. The vote
followed an address by Premier Orlando
which was constantly interrupted by
applause and ended in an ovation in
the Chamber, even the Tribunes join
ing. "NOW the Italian Delegates can
return to Paris with increased autho-
authority to continue peace negotia-
%tions'', is the dominant note in press
comments. The Premier laid before
Parliament the details of his demands
or Fiume and the Dalmation Coast
districts to which Italy has laid claim.
He began by saying that the interna-
tional situation was grave at present
adding that it was very grave for
Italy. An outline of the exchanges
between himself and President Wilson
was given by Signor Orlando who made it
clear that the Presidents action in MAX
ing public his statement as to Italy's
claim to Fiume had made it impossible
to either accept or reject any proposals
that might be maze. He said he be-
lieved it his duty TO come at once before
the Parliament to receive authority in
carr ying inward his work at the Confer
ence. The Premier spoke of the at
titude taken at Paris by the British and
French Govts. which he said had been
loyal to promises made in the Treaty of
London which was framed in 1915. He

patches probably of much later origin
than the Berlin messages have reported
the Bavarian troops virtually encircling
Munich and within a few. miles of that
city at various points. Nothing has pre-
viously been reported regarding the num-
Der of Prussians likely to be engaged
with the Bavarians in the attack on the
city, if that becomes necessary.
Paris, April 29th-It has been virtu-
ally decided that the first meeting of
the league Of nations shall be held in
Washington next October. Plans are
being formulated for the holding OF
this meeting the initial gathering to
be in the White House under the presi-
dency of President Wilson. At yester-
days plenary session Of the Peace Con.
ference, Mr.. Wilson moved for the APP
pointment Of a committee Of nine mem
ber5 to arrange for the Inauguration Of
the league and this committee will be
gln It's work tomorrow. Its task Will
include the formation Of permanent
plans for the work of the league at
Geneva and for an inaugural meeting
in Washington. Meanwhile Lord Rob
ert Cecil and other representatives of
various nations, have discussed the
holding of the meeting in Washington
and found general approval Of it among
the delegates, 50 that it has virtually
been settled upon.
Paris, April Both. A formula for the
solution of the problem OF klao-Chau
which it is hoped will re move any Dossi-
biIty OF a definite break and prove mu-
tua ly acceptable to the Chinese and ia
panese, has been reached by he Powers,
it was stated in authoritative quarters
today. The nature of the indicated solu-
ton however has not yet been disclosed.
Melbourne, April Both. The Common
wealth of Australia plans to deport
II termed Germans beginning late in May
it was announced today.
Paris, April 30th.-A statement by
President Wilson was issued today deal
ing with the memorandum sent by the
President to the Ital an Delegation on
April 14th. One paragraph in it is as
follows There would be no justitica-
ton, in my judgment, in including Fiume
OF any part of the coaStiine to the south Of
Fiume within the boundaries of the tia
lian Kingdom. Fiume is by situation and
by all the circumstances Of its develop
ment not an Italian but an international
port serving the countries t. the east
and north OF the Gulf of Fiume".
London April Both. While on the whole
the London newspapers in their editorial
comment on the amended Covenant of
the League Of Nations do not welcome
it heartily there no where is any condem-
nation of it's principles.
