Two young men secured admis-
sion to the city Jail in Lebanon a
few night ago after hammering
on the lock SO the marshal could
open the door for them to enter,
according to E. L. Buchanon who
just returned from that section.
The Lebanon Jail, said Buch-
anon. had not been inhabited for
a long time and the lock had be-
come 30 rusted that it would not
work when City Marshal Green
undertook TO put the men in whom

he had arrested for imbibing too
freely in moonshine. One Of the
men suggested that he might be
of some service TO the officer. and
he proved that be was a real
sport, not a genius. Using rock
for a hammer he pounded on the
lock while the marshal manip-
ulated the key. Finally the latch
yielded and the alleged inebri-
ates were confined for the night
among cobwebs and "eootiss" be-
hind the rusty padlocked door.

Washington, April 2S. - The
first attack in the senate on the

from the republican side, Senator
Nelson of Minnesota, chairman OF
the senate judiciary committee
characterizing the resolution as
unusual, halting, equivocating
and only a partial and piecemeal
work" His opposition shattered
hopes of leaders for a solid repub-

PUT BOOKS IN TWO CLASSES
Charles Lambs Division Of Printed
Works May Be Conceded to Have
Something Of Merit.

It was Charles Lamb who divided
printed works into two classeS-bib-
liza and abiblia. books which are not
books. In general. the first class COM
prises those which were written spon-
taneously-because the writer had
something which he could not leave
unsaid and because he had vastly
entertaining way Of saying 1t; while
the other class included all those
which were written, not with zest and
inspiration, but because there existed
some merely formal reason for writ
Ing them. In the latter group, says
the Worlds Work, the irreverent
Lamb placed the works Of Hume, Glib
bon, Josephus and Adam Smith-in
general all those books (which no
gentleman's library should be with
out" Similarly there are two kinds
of biographies, those written as a
pleasure and those written as q duty.
The greatest fallacy Of the art Is that
a man deserves biographical treat
ment simply because he has filed an
important public position or has been
conspicuous in some other way. This
mistake explains many rows OF e1-
ceedingly dull books that line all H.
brary shelves.

Wouldn't Get a Tony Pet

Mother had taken Bobby over to
play with Cousin Walter and his dog.
Upon arriving home Bobby seemed
quite dlscontented. He no longer cared
to play with his new engine, but de-
cided that he must have doggie. Un-
daunted by first refusal, he kept
nagging away at mother numerically.

mother; "they live in a fine, large
home Of their own and we live In just
a small, cramped apartment"

piled Bobby; "we'll get a dog that
isn't too high-toned to live In q little
fiat like this"

Pack Cherries Carefully.

Cherries from which the stems have
been removed usually begin to decay
quickly, as the removal of the stem
causes a wound in the flesh of the fruit
that allows the entrance of fungi, which
causes cherries to mold or decay. Grow
ers, 1t is said, should exercise care in
picking and packing cherries 80 that the
skin of the fruit will be uubroken, other
wise they will reach the consumer In
poor condition.
Cherries that are to be shipped by
parcel post should be picked by graspine
the stem and not the cherry, and many
cherries should not be held in the hand
at one time, as this will crush or bruist
the fruit and allow the entrance Of fungi
causing decay or mold. Empty the cher
ries carefully into the shipping containel
from the vessel In which they are piokee
40 as to avoid injury to the fruit.
For shipping cherries by parcel post
ventilated crate is recommended. Th'
shipping weight of cherries Is about th'
same as that OF strawberries. Expert
meuts have shown that It Is practicable
from physical standpoint, to ship cher
ries cby parcel post II picked In th'
proper condition, and II care is exercised
In picking, packing, and mailing.

The Hayes Farm.

At the big Hayes farm in Oxford, Ar
thur and Fred Hayes, the proprietors,
are not planning on doing as much farm
ing as has been done some years on this
we'll known place. Silsge and sweet corn
have been planted beside three acres Of
potatoes. Seven acres of Maine $40 oats
were sown earlier in the season. "The
market conditions do not look to be very
favorable" said the brothers in recent
interview, and as result they will only
carry along about what they can handle
themselves. "With conditions as they
are at present there is no incentive for
us to hire help and put In big acreage"
In years past considerable dairying has
been done, but during the past few years
they have been selling off their herd un-
til at the present time they only have
one COW. Ten oxen were wintered which
have now been turned ont to pasture
for the summer, as the market price
would not bring them what the cattle
stand them. 1--WE shall lose money on
the lot" said the brothers, "as beef is so
low. During the winter there was no
time when We could turn them and get
our money back, as We have bought grain
for them right along"
The cattle are fine bunch, several
pairs of them girthing feet, 9 inches.
For many years the Hayes have kept more
or less oxen on their farm, and last year
they decided to buy several pair to feed
and try out the proposition. In the fu.
ture they plan to raise Sborthorns of the
beef type and have purchased q pure
bred bull for the purpose. They now
propose to buy several females Of the
same breed and make Q speciality oil
them.
Hogs are also kept on quite scale
Thirty. seven were recently shipped to
the E. W. Penley Co. of Auburn. These
were year old and fancy lot. Las
summer they had the run of an orchard
aud were fed on the dry mash system
during the winter. The lot weighed 10,
45O pounds when shipped. "At the mar
ket price of 12 cents pound we shal
lose money on them also," said thl
Hayes, 'as grain was high when vi
started them" Four brood sows werl
wintered and these now have "a littl'
pigs which are running In the orchard.
Fruit trees on their farm blossomet
heavy, and show indications of goot
crop the coming fall. Owing to th'
large herds of cattle kept the farm Is II
good state of cultivation and 100 O.
more tons of hay are cut. Three horse
are kept for farm purposes besides tn
work that Is done with cattle.
The place Is one Of the most attract
lively located in that town as 1t com
mands fine view of Lake Thompson
which stretches out in the distance from
the lower end of the field. Large shad
trees add to the attrsctiveness Of tn
spot, and to the east just short wa
lies the pretty village OF Oxford. Thei
father, who passed away several month
lago, was for many years one of the .bes
known farmers In that locality, the plac
long being known for its good stock an
farming operations.

Distribution Of tho Races

II we speak by continents, the real
" white world consists Of Europe,
North America to the Rio Grande,
the southern part Of South America,
the Siberian part Of Asia. and Austria
lasia, the last two, Of course, being
very thinly inhabited. On the other
hand, the world Of color consists OF
the bulk Of Asia, virtually the whole
of Africa, and most Of Central and
South America. The great bulk Of
the white race is, Of course. concen-
trated in the European continent.
Four-ffths of the entire white race
lives on less than one-fifth Of the
white worlds territorial area. OF the
colored races the yellow are naturally
the most numerous, living In eastern
Asia, and numbering more than 5OO,-
100000. The browns number more
than 45O,0OO,0OO, while the blacks,
whose center Is Africa, south Of the
Sahara desert total about 100000.
The reds are, Of course, Of less con-
sequence.
