SILENT CARSON DEAD.
ADLONG RECORD.
For Is Years He Had Refused
to Utter a Word - Bare
ly Escaped Rope

STOCKTON. Calf, Sept. 80. ~
"Silent" Carson, former notorious
bandit, is dead. He died maintain
ing the silence he had preserved
for fifteen years and which had
saved him from the galIows.
Charles Carson, whose real name
was Corcoran, had long prison
record, beginning in New York,
when he was 8 years old. Othe"
terms in prison followed. While
confined in the Folsom, Calf, peui-
tertiary in 1907 he was one of Sc
ven convicts who captured Captain
John r. Murphy and Gurad Jolly
and used them as shields in an at
tempted escape. Murphy and Joi-
ly, as we'll as all Of the convicts were
wounded, four of the prisoners ia
tally.
Carson was sentenced to be hang
ed for his part in this affair and in
September, 1909, while occupying a
cell in the condemned row, waiting
execution, he suddenly stopped talk
ing. No ineligible word ever was
heard to pass his lips again
He was subjected to many tests
by alienists and finally in JanuarJ
1918, was declared insane aand con-
mitted to the hospital for the insane
here, where he died Wednesday,.
The insanity verdict provided tnat
if he ever recovered his sanity. the
sentence of death would be carried
out. Even the announcement in
February, 1917, that Gov. Hiram w
Johnson had committed his sentence
to life imprisonment in case of re-
covery, failed to bring single
syllable from him.

SOUTHERN COTTON

NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-The New

investors in the South of the danger

and very few children are arrestet

9and very few children are arrested
at all.
So most of the arrests must have
been made among a fraction less
than one-sixth of those VINO live in
Washington and its envrons.
Taae that into account, and ii
becomes apparent that a grown-up
male resident of the nations CAPT
tai has quite a job on bis hands to
keep out of the laws clutches at
least once a year.
A large proportion of the arrests
were for misuse of the automobile.
This suggests the question OF
plans for reducing the number of
motor cars fatalities.
And this, in turn, leads up to The
interesting, if pessimistic, conclu-
sion of the Washington police that
though such tragedies may be re-
duced in number, a heavy automo-
bile death roll is inevitable, any
way
The Washington police theory is
that the public has come TO accept
auto deaths as development Of
the times.
Science can prolong life for
awhile.
1t cen fight the while plague.
1t provides vaccination. 1t has Sc.
runs against diphtheria and ty-
phoid. The X-ray is effcacious in
cancer cases, sometimes.
But science can't avert death,
from some cause or other, in the
end.
Just so with the automobile. 1t
may be regulated a little but it will
do its work ultimately.
That's the view of the Washing.
ton police.

WASHINGTON, Sept 30.-SiA-
teen out of every 100 residents Of
the District of Columbia were ar
rested for something or other IN
the last year.
These are official police figures.
$ They mean another investigation
when Congress convenes
Congress is the districts city
council, or board of supervisors
It is conceded by everybody that
something must be the matter with
any place where nearly fifth of the
entire population gets put in jail in
the course Of year.
Congress will be asked to find out
what the matter is.
The statistics mean more than
may appear at first glance.
For every adult male resident of
the District there are four and &
fraction women and children.
(Just waht the fraction repre-
sents the census bureau doesn't say
persons, perhaps, who have had
their tonsils, adendids or appen-
dices removed. Four-and-a-frae-
ton is the record, anyway
Now, certainly not nearly as
many women as men are arrested

Refused to ''Falt' for

ing how bishop, accosted in a Chi
cago street by neat but hungry
stranger, derived profit from the en-
counter.
Now the bishop took fancy to the
needy one. took him to hotel and
shared good dinner with him. Yet,
having left his episcopal wallet in the
pocket of different episcopal jacket,
he suddenly faced the embarrassment
of not having the wherewithal to pay
for the dinner.
"Never mind" exclaimed the guest,
II have enjoyed dining with you, and
shall be charmed to pay the price.
Allow me-"
And the stranger paid for the two.
This worried the prelate, who insisted:
"Just let me call taxi and we'll
run up TO my place, where shall have
the pleasure of reimbursing you" But
the stranger met the suggestion with:
"See here, old mani You've stuck
me for bully good dinner, but hanged

Plea for Statues of

The citizens of Auch, the ancien.
capital Of Gascony, have decided to

Alexandre Dumas 'The Three Mus
keteers' and "Twenty Years After.
In reality. of course, II Is much more
than a statue to D'Artagnan. who
never existed for the world until Du-
mas called him into being. 1t is more
than a statue to Charles de Baatz Cas-
tlemore, the original of Dumas hero,
who was born not far from Auch. 1t
is really a statue to Dumas and the
human imagination
Everything that has made D'Artag-
nan memorable and International came
from great maker of romances-
D'Artagnan Is one of the many crea-
tions of poets and writer's that have
become more real than real men.
1t is always fine thing to see rec.
ognition of such. the New York Sun
comments. There might even be more
statues to great characters of litera-
ture and fewer statues TO little char
acters of real" life. While there is
no harm in remembering man who
leaves fountain or a park to viii
lage, the men who have left Odysseus.
Hamlet, Falstaff, Faust, Jean Vatican
and Natty Bumppo are, after all, the
more deserving.

First Use of Envelopes

i Envelopes were not in common use
until about 1920. In 1925 Lamb men
tons the envelope and in Harry Lor-
requer," published by Charles Lever
In 1887, is this quotation "The waiter
entered with small note in an en-
velope." It is claimed that envelopes
were used in France before they were
introduced in England, and there
seems to be good ground for the claim
When they first came on the French
market they were very dainty novel
ties and were made from the most ex-.
pensive and delicate papers. They
were used only by the wealthy and
were considered fad. They were
used by the public in England in
limited way between 1880 and 1S39.-

1t was not until four hundred years

December % as the date, and the

of these with some good reason for
its selection. 1t was Pope julius who
finally settled the controversy by ac-
cepting the ruling Of the Western
church and established December 25,
and by the middle Of the Fourth CEN
tury this date was generally recog-
nixed. In the pagan nations this had
been the time when festival of Joy

HorD Birds Bathe

The most elaborate dressers of the
animal world are the birds, all Of
whom take baths whenever possible
Some of them use earth, sand or dust
When these find a suitable spot they
scratch up the surface and then shuttle
backward, moving legs and wings and
working the grit right through their
feathers.
Most birds, however, are water
bathers. Some, such as the kingfisher,
plunge right in. This bird usually
dives from branch, entering the wa
ter with open wings and making a
great splash. In addition to his morn
ing toilet, the kingfsher has a com
plete bath after eating fish that he
catches; so that he often takes a
dozen headers during the day
