MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. 27.-The traveller travelling the old federal road, southward from Montgomery may see, just as they near a creek, a large steel plate, engraged and at tached to post at the roadside. It marks the site of what state histor- ians say is one of the most interest," ing in Alabama.
 The marker, which will remain until more substantial one of gran ite may be provided, stands within a few feet of the location of the fa- nous tavern, established there in 1900 by Sam Manac. pioneer The memorial has been placed on the spot by the Alabama Anthroprol ogi- cal society.
 The marker bears the following in- scription:
 Here stood Sam Manac's house. 1900 to 1877. Here was born David Manac, Creek Indian. 1902, the first appointee to West Point from the territory of Alabama; major in the United States army, 1896, killed in Seminole war, 1887.

PLAYING HOCKEY COSTLY IN GUAM
Mothers Watch School Room Windows To Avoid 15-Cent
 TruanCy Fines

AGANA, Guam, Oct. 27.-(By Asso- ciated Press IA native mother on the Island of Guam will sit all day at school room window to prevent her offspring from playing hockey This is not because of her desire that the child shall acquire learning, but to avoid paying the truancy tlne or IS cents.
 Chaplain W. l.. Thompson, U. $. N, school superintendent, says he is en- deavoring to adapt the work or edu- cation on the island to the particular needs of the natives. The Chamorros take readily to penmanship, smathe- matics, and all kinds of mechanics The children frequently know Amer ican history more thoroughly than youngsters in the United States of the same age.
 We have standardized the eight grammar grades and added hlgh school, which places the educational those in the Philippines and the United States" the superintendent says.
 limited funds and equipment, have been especially successful. Lace max . ing, basketry, and hemp weaving or various articles have reached a high grade of perfection. The boys in their carpentry classes make the fur niture and other wooden fittings for the schools The girls so readily take to dressmaking that American clothes are gradually replacing the graceful costume of the native women.
 "The real problem is presented by the classes in cooking and gardening. The children enter with zest into the competitive raising of many kinds of vegetables They also learn the prin- ciples of diatetics and do excellent cooking. But they refuse to carry home any of the vegetables they raise or to eat anything they cook. with one exception. cake.
 "The native diet consists mainly of rice and fish, and the natives prefer the canned Alaska salmon, if they can pay for it. to the delicious fish of these waters.
 But we cannot impress upon them the desirability of eating vegetables. It is almost impossible to persuade the children or adults to even taste an unfamiliar food. Consequently the instruction in cooking and gar dening, to date, has shown little practical result"

Washington's Firmness Broke Rum Tax Rebellion

presence served to improve discipline, for but two fatalities occurred dur ing the remainder of the march to the west. Secretary of the Treasury petition.
 The insurgent inhabitants of west ern Pennsylvania had no desire to oppose an army 12,000 strong. led by George Washington. A meeting of delegates was held at Parkinson Ferry and representatives were ap pointed to meet commissioners dele gated by Washington. As a result, immunity was offered to those who would sign an amnesty pledge. This broke the back of the rebellion. Washington left the federal forces at Bedford and when Pittsburg was reached virtually all that was done by the military was to arrest sew eral score men suspected of having participated in the attack upon Gen. eral Neville's house. Hamilton was reported to have shown great activ ity in running down any evidence duplicating his republican opponents, particularly Gallatin, but if he dis covered any it was not brought for ward. Leaving a small force at Pitts burg for the winter the militia paraded through Philadelphia with eight prisoners with "insurgent" painted on their hats. Later two men were COnVlCleQ or lTedSOOs put par doned by Washington.
 Thus evaporated the whisky rebel lion, which ended as illusively as the vapors from the rebels stills. in the light of history, however. it seems unquestioned that if Washington had not acted with strong hand the re- volt would have spread and threat ened the existence of the young fed eral government. Echoes of the re- bellion were heard for several years in the vituperative politics of the day, cf which this sheer of Jefferson at Hamilton was typical:
 "The servile copyist of MT. Pitt that must have his alarms, his insur- reetions and plots against the Con- stitution. It aroused the favorite purpose of strengthening the gov ernment and the public debt; and therefore an insurrection was an- nounced and proclaimed against and marched against and could never be found"
 The cost to the federal government of quelling the western revolt was $1,500000, comparatively modest sum it would seem now in the light of $3,000. 100000 congresses, but then 1t amounted to 32 per cent of the average annual cost of carrying on the federal government.

one of the best horses that had been seen in that territory his appearance brought cheers from his followers.
 While the leaders debated on the plain, the rank and file scattered for target practice. All day long, accord ing to eyewitneSSeS accounts of the scene, musketry rattled from the river banks, where the insurgents had set up targets UntaXed whisky flowed in generous quantities.
 Washington's Firmness Prevails.
 Discussion centred around plans of attack upon Fort Fayette. The forty two members of the garrison easily could have been overwhelmed outside the fort, but there was wholesome re- spect for the artillery pieces, the in surgents having none of their own. The counselors of discretion won the day. The proposal was made and carried that i've will just march through (Pittsburg) and making turn come out on the Monongahela bank, and taking a little whisky with the inhabitants of the town, the troops will embark and cross the river.
 Accordingly, all that flowed during the insurgents invasion of Pitts burgh was liquor. One citizen of the town brought up from his cellar four barrels of fine old whisky, which he counted well spent in the interest of peace.
 This show of force, however, was the last straw to the federal govern ment. Receiving official representa- tions from the United States courts that the laws could not be enforced Washington called out 12,000 militia to be ready to march the 1st of Sep tember and issued a proclamation ordering the rebels to disperse. From accounts that have been handed down it appears to be a ques- tion which the peaceable inhabitants of western Pennsylvania feared the most. the insurgents or the militia The latter was described as having a ferocious and bloodthirsty disposi- tion. Substitutes from the riff-raff of towns were said to have been hired freely. Publication by repub- lican papers of attacks upon the per sonnel of the New Jersey militia, describing 1t as a watermelon army that could cut better figure in war ring with crabs and oysters" did not improve discipline to any extent. | Governor Henry Lee of Virginia was placed in command of the expe- dition which set out in two columns upon Pittsburg.

PICKP POCKETS GET
 MASTER TRAINING
Vienna Police Expert De- ScribeS Psychology Of
 Dips" Under Notice

VIENNA. Oct. 27-CBy Associated Press.) .)-The mental and physical makeup of that worldwide class of minor criminals, the pickpocket, has been set forth with convincing ac- curacy by the one man in Europe doubtless best qualified to do so pr. E. Lewisch, for IS years chief of the pickpocket section of the Vienna police.
 The chief was addressing the dele gates to the international police con gress. The pickpocket, he said, was essentially a normad, a rover. He finds his prey on the street, in places of amusement, when. an accident draws people together, in the cloak room of theatre, inc short, where rate in Vienna today, and tomorrow be lettering about city 100 miles away. He must be ready to keep moving and give up any idea of q settled home. In Europe he must be a good linguist.
 It is reasonably certain, Dr. Le- '. isch said. that these men are sys- tematically trained in their work, and he believes the best schools are in Poland and Hungary. Besides strength and manual dexterity the pickpocket must have presence of mind. knowledge of men, and ready adaptability to cope with unexpect- ed and dangerous situations. Un- bounded effrontery. confidence, and a ready eloquence are important assets, and often help him to calm the agitation of his victim, avert sus picion. and even win the confidence and gratitude of the man he Is rob- bing
 The successful pickpocket needs well-formed hands, strong and with iong, narrow fingers. He must be able to seize a heavy purse with two fingers as with a pair of pincers, and extract 1t from pocket by quick and sure movement, or twist watch ring out of It's bearings with as easy grace as if picking flower from its stem.
 In court the pickpocket denies pas sionately every charge brought against him. He admits absolutely nothing. He has ready excuse to account for his presence in the city where he was caught. The stolen watch he will swear he picked up from the ground. and as an honest finder he was about to carry 1t to the police station. Before the judge he will simulate deafness or ignor- ance of the language of the court. He will fight for time by asking questions on his own account, or pre- tend sickness or even insanity
 It takes time to build good case against pickpocket, Dr. Lewisch de- clared. He must be held while his record often in other countries, is being looked up. He must be finger printed and photographed. and these evidences distributed to the police authorities all over Europe. And when he is found guilty. Dr. Lewisch concluded, give him a long sentence, preferably in the penitentiary.

It seemed that they grew sensitive about the rods. considered them an- tiquated and useless and reflecting on their intelligence.

I reckon they'd seen too many telephones and electric lights, and figured that anything they could use that handy wasn't go- ing to hurt lem.

 A law requiring such inspections has been in effect for some time but the practice of making the inspec- tions has fallen into disuse. Acting Secretary of Justice Torres has called attention to the law through a circular issued to all judges of the first instance. He requests the judges to resume inspections and submit re- ports so the department of justice may be in position to know the con- ditions of all jails, and keep them up to required standards.
