Ihe system or this prison is that of solitary confinement, the whole building being so constructed that each of the detached cells is overlooked by a warder stationed on a small observation tower. 'The school room consists of 200 cells in the form of an amphitheater, from each | of which the teacher and the teacher { only can be seen. Each of the vouthful offenders takes his place in silence, | the first in the furthermost cell and | the others in rotation. The closing of one of these cell doors opens that of the next cell.

PETRIFIED MILK, It Is One of the Achievements of Modern Chemistry, “Chemistry is incessantly at work to ¢reate new industrial values from substances heretofore conside:ed valueless,” says Consul General Guenther at Frankfort in a report to the newly invented “milk stone,” or petritied milk. “It is a well kuown fact,” said he, quoting expert authority, *that the success of a creamery, where the chief isource of profit is, of course, butter, does not depend so much upen the cost “of production and the sedime price of butter as on the profits derived from the skimmed milk, The right market for the milk skimmed for the purpose cf butter making is really the vital question of the milk industry. Skimmed milk has been used for various purposes—for the manufacture of sugar of milk, as food for animals and for milk champagne, which is skimmed milk mixed with fruit juices aund impregnated with carbonic acid. A rather large percentage of sKkimmed milk is also separated into its component parts, which are then worked up. The casein serves for the manufacture of cheese; also for glue, putty and isolating substances. “But all these different uses of skimmed milk did not solve the question most favorabay. This, however is now expected from the newly invented petrified milk. It is manufactured in the following manner: “By a chemical process the casein is precipitated as a yellowish-brown powder, which is mixed with formaline. Thereby a hornlike product is formed, called milk stone. This substance, with variocus admixtures, forns a substitute for horn turtle shell, ivory, celluloid, marble, amber and hard rubber. Handles for knives and forks, paper cutters, crayons, pipes, cigar holders, seals, marbles, stone ornaments and billiard balls are now made of skimmed milk. The insolubility of galalith, its easy working, elasticity and proof against fire make it wvery desirable. Already 20000 quarts of skimmed milk are daily used for this purpose in Austria.” | BOTH JAWS SHOT AWAY. Stiil a Successful Business Man. A man who had both jaws shot away had trouble eating ordinary food. 1 but found a food-drink that supplies | the nutrimment needed. He says: “I have been an invalid since the siege of Vicksburg, in 18866, where I | was wounded by a Minie ball passing through my head and causing the entire loss of my jaws. I was a drummer boy, and at the time was leading a skirmish line, carrying a gun. Since that time I have been awarded tlie ' ;nedal of honor from the Congress of the United States for gallantry on the field. “The consequences of my wound were dyspepsia in its most aggravated form, and I finally proved ordinuary coffee was very lLard on my stomacls, so I tried Postum and got better. Then [ tried common coffee again and got worse, 1 did this several times, and finaliy as Postum helped me every time I continued to use it, and how often I think that if the Government { has issued Postum to us in the Army llow much better it would have been l for the solider boys than coffee. | *“Coffee constipates me and Postum | does not; coffee makes me spit up my | food, Postum does not; coffee keeps me E awake nights, Postum does not.

THE POOR MAN'S CHANCE. , Uncle Sam to Give Away 9,000.000 Acres of L.and in Nebraska. l Any head of a family in the United | States may have a cattle ranch in Ne- | braska ene mile square by simply asking for it. 'The offer is made by the government and there are no conditions imposed that the poorest cannot comply with. As there are nearly 9.000,000 of acres from which selections may be made anyone desiring to become possessor of 640 acres of fine grazing lands will have no trouble finding a tract suitable to his taste. I The lands in question have just hm-n| opened by the linkaid bill, which passed | Congress and was signed on the last day of the session. The law becomes operative June 26, 1904. On and after that date these 9,000,000—t0 be exact, 8,844, - 757—acres, many millions of which comprise the finest grazing lands in the world, will be open to the public for entry as homesteads. As an example of the quality of some of this land, there are in Rock County 220,302 acres of public lands, and yvet one railroad station in that ceunty ships more hay to market now than any other raiiroad point in the whole world. The lands affected by the Kinkaid bill have been open for homestead entr) in lots of 180 acres each for muny ( years, but not being suitable for ugricultural purposes and 160 acres not being large enough on which to raise cattle, the lands have never been taken up. A square mile of this land, however, will W‘ "“"WHE‘ u!n.! h%’ﬂ’! m*m)of cattle throughout the entire year. : - Immense tracts of this land have been fenced in by the cattle barons of Nebraska and it was to have these illegally constructed fences removed that the government last year sent Col. Mosby. the ex-Coufederate cavalry leader and raider, into the State to enforce the law regarding these fences. It is said that the Richards ranch, with headquarters at Ellsworth, Neb., had under such fencing nearly 2,000,000 acres of governnient land. There were dozens of other great ranches which also included hundreds of thousands of government land within their fances. But the Kinkaid bill sounds the death knell of the cattle kings, whose herds of thousands roamed the open range, more effectually than any fence relun\':.l} notice which the President wmight promulgate. With settlers from ail parts of the United States flocking in and taking up homesteads of G4O ncres each, the public domain in this State is = thing of only a few months more. Then, without necessary lands upon which to graze their herds, the cattle barons must | go out of business, This is the last large distribution of good land which the government will ever make. And it is only the really poor man who can homestead this land. Any man owning more than 160 acres of any kind of land anywhere is barred from participating in the Nebraska land distribution. Vi 18 .

The street cleaning campaign now being fought by the citizens of Chicago is without parallel in the history of crusades ‘by dwellers in American cities. Plain, commercial principles have been .:l])p]iv(]. (Chicago has declared she will l!w clean and that declaration is being ,fnlﬁ‘;lod. Self-improvement societies are doing the work the municipality negleeted. It may astound the country to learn that it has been the rule in Chicago to clean the streets only once in twelve months. The ¢ity appropriates aunually $1.100,000 for the care of streets mn‘l that includes garbage removal, snow removal and maintenance of dumps. The Chicago Woman's Club determined that the filth must go. They began the crusade and others joined it, so that to-day a joint committee cares for a district nine and a half miles long and one mile wide. More than 100 miles of streets are being cleaned. Uniformed employes patrol the pavements and even vacant lots are being cared for. These are graded and seeded. Trees receive attention, weeds are gttacked wherever they show themselves, and unsightly bill boards are torn down. It is expected that the outgrowth of this movement will be the establishment of an adequate street cleaning department.

neys had made great efforts to secure | his and Burrett's convietion. The case was before the court nineteen doys, and the government produced a great mass of testimony. Gen. Tyner. as Assistant Attorney General for the Postoflice Department, passed on bond investment companies and other concerns which might be barred from the mails. Barrett, after serving in this branch of the departmeunt, resigued to act as counsel for such concerns as might be in trouble and engage his services. In this business he practiced before Gen. Tyner, and the uncle was charged with having favored his nepliew and the latter's clients in his decisions. Gen. Tyner, who is T 8 years old, has had a long record of public service. He was a member of Congress from Indiana from 1869 to 1875 and was made Postmaster General under Grant after serving as Second and First Assistant Postmaster General. He was Assistant Attorney General for the Postofice Department from 1889 to 1893 and was reappointed to the same position in 1897. His service was continuous until the charges against him forced his resignation a year ago. SOUTHERN CITY FIRE-SWEPT. Twenty-eight Blocks in the Heart as Yazoo, Miss,, Destroyed.

Catarrh of the Siomach Is Generally Called Dyspepsia—Something to Produce Artiiicial Uigestion Is Generally Taken. i N . . | Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Hosd | of Othicr Digestive Remedies ; Has Been lavented. . These Remedies Do Not Reach the ! Seat ¢f the Difficulty, Which l Is Really Catarrh. X. U. S. Senator M. C. Butler from South Carolina, was Senator from that state for two terms. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washington, D. C., says: | ‘I can recommend Peruna for dysepsia and stomach trouble. [ have |P: . . | been using your medicine ior a short ! period and I feel very much relieved, It is indeed a wonderful medicine besides a good togic.”’ ===M. C. Butler. The only rational way to cure (iyswp»' sia is to remove the catarrh. eruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perfarm digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and satfer than resorting to artificial | methods or narcoties. | Peruna has cured more cases of dys- | pepsia than all other remedies combined, simply because it cures catarrb | wkerever located. If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures it. 1f catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this locatior as in any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy sow dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remed{; Peruna cures dyspepsia because it generally dependent upon eatarrh.
