Theodore Chenken of New

a suspended sentence on a for
gerry charge, so he promptly gave
the attorney a SIS check for his

Chenken was jailed again.
Testing the driving skill of
Will Cullman at Clay Center,
Kan, a highway patrolman told
him: Drive 80 miles an hour,
then see how quickly you can
stop; I'll ride on the running

on the brakes, the patrolman was
dashed to the ground and a pas

A truck loaded with 1900

HAD BIG BRAINS BUT

Expert anthropologists remark upon
the huge brains found among early Amer
lean Indians, who were here before Euro
pean nations colonized the North Amer

DR.. Ales Hrdlicka, of the Smithsonian
Institution, says the Indians had great
capacities for intellectually but had not

This may. explain some modern be

sEvENTY-sIx PAPERS CLOSED
(Wilkes-Barre Record)

few days ago there appeared in the Record
an item setting forth that four publications had
quit the newspaper field through merger or sus-
pension one in Minneapolis, one in Buffalo and
two in Syracuse. This item reported only the
latest chapter in long story which for more than
two years has been growing in length.
Seventy-six newspapers Of the United States
have either suspended or merged with other pub
LEGATIONS since June, 1887. Thirty-five Of these
closed their doors during the first five months
of 1889 The authority for these statements is the
New York Times, issue of August 6.
Responsible IN large part according to execu-
tives of newspapers concerned, for forcing these
newspapers to the wall increased labor costs.
higher white paper prices and the growing burden
of federal and state taxation
Newspaper arrangements are challenged to-
day as seldom before. They have the problem of
maintaining the newspaper quality to which the
American reading public has been accustomed
and of meeting rising costs out Of revenues shat
have declined Meeting this problem taxes the
ingenuity and drains the resources al the same
time.

MONROE MONUMENTS

How many monuments are there in
Monroe County? Where are they? BY
whom and for whom were they erected?
What is that monument in front of the
Lighthouse building at the foot of White
head Street? What monuments have been
erected in Bayview Park? What monu-
ments of general interest are located in
City Cemetery?
No one person in Key West seems to
know the answers to all these questions.
There seems to be no literature regarding
the various monuments here. Many of
them are of great historic Importance, and
connected with great national events.
They commemorate stirring and thrilling
episodes in the nations history and there
fore are interesting to many persons from
every section of this country and Cuba.
There is the Marti monument at Bay
view Park in memory of a great Cuban
patriot
There is the Maine monument in City
Cemetery in memory of the soldiers, sailors
and marines who died in Havana harbor
at outset of the Spanish American War.
There is the Soldiers monument at
Whitehead, Front and Greene Streets
erected by the Navy Club of Key West in
memory of thelofficers, sailors and soldiers
of the army, navy and marine corps of the
United States who lost their lives in the
ceuntry's service upon this station from
1861 to 1865.
There is the New York State monu-
ment at Bayview Park erected in memory
of the men from that state who died here
during the Spanish-American war.
There is the Upper Matecumbe monu-
ment to the memory of the former service
men and civilians who died in the 1885
Labor Day hurricane.
There may be others, but there seems
to be no public record of them. Which in
dicates that some agency should interest
itself in the compilation of history of the
Monroe monuments for inclusion in folder
or booklet for general distribution. It
would be an interesting document locally,
and would be highly informative and en-
tightening to the thousands of visitors to
Monroe county and Key West.
Attention to this matter was directed
yesterday when Arthur Sawyer Post No. %
of The American Legion announced plans
for identifying and improving the grounds
around the Upper Matecumbe monument.
These are needed improvements around a
beautiful shaft right at the entrance to the
keys and Key West The posts efforts
along this line should be encouraged and
aided in every possible way.

SUSSEX FARMERS SEEK
SOIL BUILDING UNITS

tory with poor equipment plus the
same kind of management can never
compete with one operated in a
more efficient manner. This is also
true of our poor soils. 1t is almost
impossible for a farmer to exc out
a living on many of them yet hun
dreds of farmers have been trying to
do that very thing and in most cases
the result is failure. This Agricul-
tural Conservation Program is try
ing to improve this condition by Civ
ing some assistance to farmers and
urging them to give more serious
thought to soil conservation and i'm
provement. The Sussex farmers are
cooperating to such an extent that
in 1899. approximately 5000 farmers
have signed work sheets. and will no
doubt use some of the soil building
practices suggested in the 1899 pro-
gram which will soon be completed.
