BIG TARANTULA IN PRISON. Interesting Pet Prisoner in Ohio State Penitentiary. Besides the big yellow rat catcher Tabby and the Maltese Dan, which will do all the tricks commonly done by dogs, such as jumping through the hands, sitting up to "say his prayers," etc., the Ohio penitentiary boasts another interesting pet. He arrived recently from the sunny south in a bunch of bananas and is a great tarantula, which looked so ferocious they put him in solitary confinement on sight, although no misdemeanors can be proved against him. When standing with his legs spread out he just fills the bottom of the pint milk bottle in which he slept last night. A hole was cut in the cover for air and Mexico Pete, as the guards have named him, did very well last night, but will require larger quarters when he desires to exercise. His chief amusement was tying into bundles the numerous flies which by some odd song or perfume were attracted into his bottle. Those he couldn't eat he spun a chain around and laid by for future provisions. Pete is dark red and very hairy—for his covering is too long and coarse to be simply "fuzzy"—and although he has ten legs, like any tarantula, his body is larger, and he has a head something like a turtle's. He is also blessed with a ravenous appetite and his mouth could be plainly seen opening and closing last night, already in anticipation of his morning breakfast of bananas. WAS SAVING HIS HAT Good Excuse for Putting Chair From Under Would-Be Sitter. "That," said Thomas F. Ryan, reorganizer of the Equitable Life, "was a poor excuse." Mr. Ryan was discussing a Wall Street deal wherein a financier had roughly handled a railroad man. The financier had come forth with an excuse for his conduct, and it was this excuse that Mr. Ryan was condemning. "A poor excuse," he repeated. "By no means a sufficient excuse in the eyes of the railroad man. "That railroad man feels, I suppose, like another misused man whom I once saw in a restaurant. "The man I refer to was about to seat himself and order luncheon, when the chair was pulled from under him, and down he flopped to the floor, shaking the very building. "He rose and rushed at the fellow who had so misused him. This person, though, was not at all alarmed. He said, with a calm, self-righteous air: "'You were going to sit down on my hat.'" Consistency. Herbert McFadden, at the funeral directors' annual convention in Philadelphia, declared consistency to be an overrated virtue. "Because," he said, "we held the French method of embalming to be the best ten years ago, must we, for consistency's sake, stick to the French method now, when we know that the American method in every way surpasses it? "These upholders of consistency would go as far as the widow who wanted to have her husband cremated. "She took the corpse to the crematory, and the manager of the place said to her: THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. "We cremate here, madam, in both ways.' "Both ways,' she repeated, confused. "Yes,' he explained. 'The French way and the Italian way. Which do you prefer?" "Oh,' the widow answered, brightening. 'the French. The French, by all means. Poor John never could bear Italian cooking.'"—Buffalo Enquirer. The Rev. Peter MacQueen tells this story on himself: It seems that Mr. Murphy, the famous temperance orator, made one of his great speeches in the West Somerville Congregational church some years ago. At the close of the service one of Mr. McQueen's parishioners, a worthy Scot addicted to strong liquors, came up to sign the temperance pledge. Mr. Murphy talked to the Scotchman and asked him if Mr. McQueen was not a brother Scot. "What kind of a minister is Mr. MacQueen?" said Murphy to the converted tippler. "He's a foin mon, that Mister Mac Queen; a grawn meenlster that; there's nane o' this dom'd releegion aboot him." replied the old Scotchman. Vanderbilt Gives Up Farming. Vanderbilt Gives Up Farming. George W. Vanderbilt is to give up farming at Biltmore, N. C., and is going to let somebody else do it for him. He has believed all along that his venture could be made to pay expenses, or nearly so, but has been disappointed. He considers that his experiment of ten years justifies him in changing his mind about the money there is to be made in farming. Mr. Vanderbilt has made the Biltmore farms among the most famous in the country. They consist of general truck farms, a dairy, a creamery, a chicken and duck farm, live stock kennels, and both houses. He has expended a large fortune for the privilege of being a farmer.

Girl Whose Extravagance Won Her a Wealthy Husband. "If I knew how to write stories," says a pension office woman, to the Washington Post, "I'd write one about my cousin Mattie. We're about the same age, and for the last fifteen years we've been earning our own livings. Mattie has been a school teacher, and I've been in office. Every time we met we used to talk about what we meant to do with the money a bachelor uncle of ours was to leave us some day. Mattie always said she intended to spend every cent of her share having a good time that she could remember all the rest of her life. "If I invest it,' she used to say, 'I may lose. If I buy a splendid good time with it, nobody can ever rob me of the memory of it.' "Two years ago our uncle died and left each of us about $4,000. I was too sensible to fool mine away. I put it into suburban lots that I couldn't sell now for more than half what I gave for them. Mattie took four months' leave of absence, bought herself a lovely wardrobe, and went to California for the winter. She said she meant to spend every cent she had in just four months, and she did. When her leave of absence was up she hadn't a penny left. Teaching now? No, sir-ee. She met a very rich --- man in California and married him. And what charmed the man was the frank way in which she told him about her money and how she was spending it. He said he'd been looking all his life for a woman with good common sense, and Mattie was the only one he'd ever found." WAS WILLING TO COMPROMISE. Businesslike Proposition Made by Unfortunate Guest. The late Gov. Anthony Colby of New London, N. H., did not confine his charities to mere giving, but often invited the poor people of his acquaintance to his fine residence on Academy Hill, where he entertained them. Among these recipients of his bounty was a simple-minded old, fellow named "Ozzy" Whittier, who lived with a son Charles in an adjoining town, and who came once a year for a visit of two days. He was always given a present of $10 upon his departure. During one momentous visit "Ozzy" seemed marked with bad luck. He tracked his cowhide boots over the freshly painted piazza, let the colts loose through a gate open, and narrowly escaped burning the barn while smoking. The climax came when he sat down in the parlor to tell the Governor how sorry he was and how sorry his son Charles would be to know it. Rocking disconsolately in a big arm chair, he crashed into the center table and overturned it with all its contents. A large astral lamp was demolished, and the oil went over the carpet and some valuable books and drawings with which the table was loaded. "Ozzy" viewed the wreck in dismay, and broke out in fresh lamentations. "Oh massy me! Guv'nor, massy me! What will Charles say?" he wailed. "I tell ye what, Guv'nor, if ye won't say a word to Charles about it, ye needn't give me but $5 when I go home to-morrow." The Critic and the Lady. Talleyrand, the noted Frenchman, possessed wit of so high an order that it has stood well the test of time, and his jokes are still good. The author of "Juniper Hall" gives two of his sayings to Madame de Stael. He was a great admirer of Madame Recamier and Madame de Stael, the one for her beauty, the other for her wit. Madame de Stael asked him one day if he found himself with both of them in the sea on a plank, and could only save one, which it would be, to which he replied: "Ah! Madame de Stael knows so many things, doubtless she knows how to swim." When "Delphine" appeared, it was said that Madame de Stael had described herself as Delphine, and that Talleyrand was the original of Madame de Vernon. Meeting the authoress soon after ward, Talleyrand remarked, in his most gentle tone of voice: "I hear that both you and I appear in your new book, but disguised as women."--Montreal Herald.

Elaborate System Intended to Ensure Correctness. Mr. W. A. Harper, "a corrector for the press," in an article on "Proof Reading" in the Printers' Register, gives a specimen of how the reading-boy deals with the productions of the Poet Laureate in the way of business: Double quotes You smallcaps mus' wake an' call me hurlycom call me hurlycom mother dearsem (sniff). Tohyphenmorrer posill be the 'appiest time of all the glad Newcaphyphen yearsem (gasp). Ofcap all the glad Newcaphyphen year com mother com the maddest, merriest daysem (sniff). Forcap Hiposm to be Queen cap opos the Maycap com mothercom, Hiposm to be Queencap opos the Maycap full close double rule Tennyson-italsfull. This apparent jargon is the result of reading by "caps and points," so as to insure absolute accuracy in the minutest details of punctuation, capitalization, etc. "Com." is the reader's contraction for "comma;" "sem." for "semicolon;" "pos." for "apostrophe," and so on.—The Publisners' Circular. What Kosciusko Wanted. Count Kosciusko, while in command of the revolutionary forces in the vicinity of Great Egg Harbor, Burlington county, N. J., happened one day into a pasture where a young lieutenant was drilling the "awkward squad." At sight of the straggling, plouching rustics, the count sputtered with disgust and swore some fearful oaths in his native tongue. Calling upon the men to halt, he seized a musket, and, brushing the lieutenant aside, went through the exercise himself. Then he bade them imitate him, but the squad, now thoroughly frightened, had become more awkward and sheepish looking than before. The old general was bristling with rage. Drawing himself up to his full height, he stamped his foot and shouted: "You mus' look like soldiers! Look fierce—look like de debbbil—look like me!" George III and the Parrot. The habit acquired by parrots on board ship of cursing and swearing, and making use of other objectionable language, is a matter of common knowledge. Lord Howe had just returned from his great victory, and King George III and his consort, Queen Charlotte, honored him with a visit on board his ship. Among other treasures brought home by the admiral was a parrot famed for its talking, which was always kept hung up in the admiral's stateroom. Their majesties were called on to see the wonderful bird, but, unfortunately, Polly, who was no respecter of persons, broke out in a torrent of foul and obscene language. The queen was hurried out of the cabin, whilst Polly was sent sprawling off her perch by the admiral. Loubet Insists on Retiring. President Loubet has finished his sixth year in the French presidency and declares he will not seek re-election. He prefers to pass his time in agricultural pursuits at Drome or in retirement in Paris, where his son Paul, is already looking for an apartment for him. The presidential election takes place next January. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. BETWEEN CURSELVES. Women may dress to please men; but men pay the bills to please women. Experience would be a more popular teacher if she always combined amusement with instruction. The sign "Paint" is apt to attract considerable attention from those who did not happen to notice it in time. Clarke Littlehale of Bethel. Clarke Littlehale was a typical country stage driver and a noted wag and joker in the region surrounding Bethel, Me. A neighbor of his, who for want of any other name we will call Mr. Brown, said to him one day: "Clarke, I want to find a good man to help me transplant a lot of cabbages the first dull day. Can't you send me some one?" "Yes," said Clarke, "I'll send you Jim What's his name." The dull day and Jim soon came, and Mr. Brown endeavored to make them both useful, but as far as the latter was concerned the attempt was a disastrous failure. Meeting the stage driver again, soon afterward, he said to him, somewhat emphatically: "Clarke, I thought you said Jim What's his name was a good hand to transplant cabbages?" "Wa-il," responded the generally supposed encyclopaedia of all local information, "I thought of course he must be a good hand at that; they say every man is good at something, and I swear he ain't good for anything else." Why He Wanted a Tenner. Application was made at half a dozen stores before the man could get one ten-dollar bill for his roll of ones. "I don't see," said the man's companion, "why you went to all that trouble. You are going to pay the money right over to your tailor. Why didn't you give him the one-dollar bills?" "Because it would make a bad impression," was the reply. "I am broke, but I don't want him to know it. Whenever you get in that fix pay your debts in the largest bills that you can get hold of. It enhances your value in the estimation of tradesmen and paves the way for further credit. A fellow will think a heap more of you if you pay with one five dollar bill than with five ones. A handful of chicken feed indicates that you have had to hustle around pretty lively to get the money and that there isn't much left where that came from. A man who really has money can afford to pay in pennies if he feels like it, but he who has little can keep up his credit only by using large bills." Some Object Lessons. A Massachusetts clergyman stood before his congregation with a dog beside him and talked on the subject of kindness to animals. The innovation made a strong impression, but there is no doubt that it opens up a somewhat dangerous precedent. Will the next Massachusetts clergyman who inveighs against horse racing find it necessary to use a live horse for an object lesson? Or if he discusses on the dangers that surround the devoted missionary in Oriental lands, will he feel obliged to illustrate his theme with the tiger of the jungle and the elephant of the foothills? There are few good things in this life of ours that can't be overdone. Cleveland Plain Dealer. 1516 Orman Avenue. PUEBLO, COLO.

The Postgraduate Normal Course of the Tuskegee Normal and industrial Institute will be extended to two years beginning with the opening of the next school term, September 12, 1905, and will comprise a much broader scope of work than heretofore. Work will be offered for three classes of students in this department: First, students whose interests are purely industrial, second, students whose interests are primarily in the academic work, and third, postgraduate normal students who wish to combine the industrial and academic work. Students of the second class will be required to devote five days of each week to normal work, and one day to industrial employment. The various courses will be taught by specialists thoroughly competent, and Tuskegee Institute with its complete material equipment in every department thus affords superior advantages for young men and women wishing to prepare themselves for literary and industrial teachers, and for such teachers desiring to take advanced work.

I desire to have all my children's meals served at the family table, so that I may give attention to the kind and quantity of food which they eat, and also to their manners at table, writes Inez Redding in the Epitomist. As we have so many guests I particularly wish my children to appear well bred, and for the same reason I do not wish to be obliged to be continually talking to them at the table. My children coax for pennies like other children, and I teach them the value of a penny while they are very young, in this way. When we go into the dining-room I place in front of my plate a penny for each child. At the close of the meal the child who has not been corrected in any way is given a penny. They are encouraged to talk, but not to interrupt. They are taught to eat properly, to ask properly for anything they may wish. Any misdemeanor, which they understand to be such, results in the loss of the penny. Sometimes they are fined a penny beside for any particularly unpleasant act. For any disrespectful word to the waitress they are at once sent from the table. It may not be the best way, but one thing certain, the meal hour is the pleasantest in the day, to children, guests and myself. A Budding Diplomat. She was exceedingly pretty, with soft blue eyes, a scarlet mouth and little wisps of gold blowing around her brow, for all the world like tendrils. But as she looked up from her desk and saw the troublesome boy whispering behind his book, her eyes dilated and two perpendicular lines between her eyebrows were plainly visible. "Tommy! Tommy Talte!" she called sharply, with a tone of command in her silvery voice. "You are whispering again." But Tommy was not only troublesome; he was clever as well. "Please, ma'am," he said, putting down his book and looking at the young teacher sweetly. "I was just tellin' Billy Brown what nice things all the gentlemen say about you when you walk along the street." What Is a Melon? The old and oft-mooted question as to whether a melon is a vegetable or a fruit has been revived, and is now being discussed with great vehemence in England by the earl of Clancarty and Lord Ashtown. These two ornaments of the nobility were rivals in exhibiting vegetables at a county fair, and when the earl won the prize for his table of vegetables, Lord Ashtown promptly and irrefully protested because the earl's exhibit included a melon, which the noble lord declared was a fruit. The two peers and the judges of the fair are now engaged in attempting to settle the dispute, for the earl of Clancarty has no intention of tamely admitting his rival's objection. Railway Mail Clerks' Hotel. The clerks of the railway mail service who work in the traveling post-offices that run in and out of New York have a lodging house at 26 Vesey street, which they maintain at a cost of $12 a year for each of the 700 clerks who put up there at the New York end of their runs. This is a trifle over 3 cents a night for each clerk. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. A Lesson at the Primaries. Mrs. Dobbs waited until dinner was over and her husband lighted his pipe before she handed over the note Willie brought from the teacher. "My boy," said Dobbs, when he had read it. "I understand from this that you are excused from school until the Board of Education has an opportunity to consider your case." "Yes, sir," answered Willie, who had begun to whimper. "Do you know what the Board of Education is, my son?" Dobbs went into the kitchen and got a good stout piece of board. Then he summoned his son, and for several minutes he was busy with Willie. "That, my son," he said, as he finished, "is the only board of education we knew of when I was a lad." Song of a Boat. A song of a boat:— There was once a boat on a billow: Lightly she rocked to her port remote, And the foam was white in her wake like snow, And her frail mast bowed when the breeze would blow, And bent like a wand of willow. I shaded mine eyes one day when a boat Went curtsying over the billow, I marked her course till a dancing mote, She faded out on the moonlit foam, And I stayed behind in the dear-loved home; And my thoughts all day were about the boat, And my dreams upon the pillow. I pray you hear my song of a boat For it is but short:— My boat you shall find none fairer afloat, In river or port. Long I looked out for the lad she bore, On the open desolate seas. And I think he sailed to the heavenly shore, For he came not back to me— Ah me! —Jean Ingelow. Simla Is Becoming Moral. This lament is from the Allahabad Pioneer: A painful impression is gaining ground that Simla is not what it was. Visitors are continually being heard to ask. Where are the flirtations, the frisky grass widows, the steady bachelors, the racy scandals—where, in short, is the joy of life that once made this spot the most delectable in the East? In those gay days bright eyes earned more appointments than long service, a bon mot was even a surer pass to distinction than a relative in the India office. We, who remember how the verb to frivol was specially invented for Simla, sigh as we recall those salad days. Overreached Herself. A worthy dame of Dundee, Scotland, in order to keep down her gas account was in the habit of blowing down the pipes, thus reversing the hands of the registering dial of the meter. All went well until a new inspector came. After examining the meter, he ciphered long and earnestly. At length the old lady anxiously exclaimed, "A'm no' tae hae a big account this time, am I?" "No, mem," said the inspector, "it's the other way aboot. The company's owin' you tuppence. You have surely been blawing verra hard this time." Crosses on Beer Barrels. Beer barrels are invariably marked with a series of crosses, which nowadays denote the quality of the beer contained in the cask. These crosses were originally put on by the monks, who then made all the malt liquors, as a sort of trade mark. The crosses were not of the same shape as now shown, but were more akin to the shape of a crucifix, and were intended to show that by "their oath sworn the cross" the beer supplied was a fit and drinkable condition.

The adoption of business principles in the home is not only one of the ways to obtain happiness, it is the only way, says Good Housekeeping. We ari speaking now of the average honse- hold composed of an average man and an average Woman. And here is the first step toward happiness: First, the husband must have the absolute right to refuse money to the wife; second, the wife’ must have the avsolute right to demand money from the husband It doesn’t look like affection, it doesn’t seem connubjal. But analyze it No Excuce. Dr. Yamei Yin, the talented Chinese woman now traveling in America is opposed to capital punishment and to war. To a reporter the other day Dr. Ya- mei Yin talked about the reforms thet she favors. She talked earnestly Then she smiled. “I smile,” said the Chinese phys! cian, “because | am reminded of a etory. It is the story of a Chinese criminal, a graduate of Oxford. “This man killed another as vul- garly and brutally as any coolie would have done. He was tried, fownd guilty aod condemned to death. The judge said to him: “*Prisoner, the sentence of the court fe that you be beheaded to-morrow morning. Have you anything to say for yourself. Are you able to aivance any reason why this sentence should mut be pronounced on you?’ “*My Jord,’ said the prisoner, "| am 2 member of a society ior the aboll tion of capital punishment.” Always Staunch And Truc The Denver Republican has a’ ways avoided the fallacies an knaveries of yellow journalisn and its steadily increasing Circul: tion proves conclusively that i policy of telling the plain Trut! without exaggeration or misrepr sentation, standing jast for th Right, i ‘eartily approved wit growing force by the intelligen: Public to which it appeals.

NO VETO POWER IN OHIO, Abolished by Constitutional Conven tion Early in Centurv. Ohio is the only state in which the governor does not possess the power of veto, according to the Brooklyn Eagle. The story dates back nearly 100 years to the time when Arthur St. Clair was the territorial governor of Ohio. In those days the fee for a mar- riage license in Ohio was $2, and ac cording to the law such a fee went into the pockets of the governor. The general arsembly finally decided to repeal the statute, and not desiring to deprive the governor of this particular source of revenue, two bDilis were passed, one repealing the law permit. ting the governor to annex the mar- riage license fee and the other increas- ing his salary a proportionate amount. But the governor, with a kecneye for the main chance, signed the bill rais- ing his salary and yetoed the Dill de- priving him of the marriage fees. The general assembly passed the vetoed bill over the governor’s protest, but Mr. St. Clair was sustained by the leg islative council. There was a general mix-up for a while and later the con stitutional convention met and abol ished the veto power. Fifty years later, in 1852, another constitutional convention was held, but all attempts to incorporate a veto power into the state constitution were defeated.

PRODIGY IN MUSIC AT & Wonderful Little Girl Goes Home and Repeats Operas. Pretty Jean E. Masters, aged 5 years, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carson W. Masters of Allentown, Pa., is a musical wonder, besides being a healthy, happy and wholesome youngster, with none of the mental and physical peculiarities which so often mark the child of genius, says the Philadelphia Record. Without ever having taken a lesson on the piano or knowing one note from the other, little Miss Masters has quite an extensive repertoire of music, all of which she has mastered by ear. Whenever she hears a song or a tune that pleases her she listens very attentively and then goes to the piano and plays the selection in simple chords. Her favorite selection is "Teasing, the well-known song from "The Wizard of Oz." Her parents took her to that opera, and on their return home she immediately played the air with the utmost accuracy. Most of her other selections were procured in the same way. A brother, Willard, aged 4, who died two years ago, possessed similar talents, and little Miss Masters first gave evidence of her unusual gifts when she was 3 years old. New Use for Macaroni. The "lady of the house," who had been wrestling with the servant; problem for several years, recently took a new departure with the hope of solving the riddle. She imported a young colored girl from one of the lower counties of Virginia, with the determination to do or die in the attempt to model her into an accomplished cook at least. The usual bitches and disappointments occurred and the task proved a most trying one. The house-keeper persevered; however, until the climax materialized a few days ago Entering the kitchen one afternoon the lady of the house inquired: "Millie, have you cooked the macaroni?" "What's macaroni?" the importation from the country wanted to know. "Why, here it is," the employer explained, indicating the raw material. "What does you do with that?" the girl then asked. "Eat it, of course," was the reply. "Good laws," Millie ejaculated, "I thought that stuff was what you sucks medicine through."—Washington Star Exempt Students From Servi Students at Japanese universities and commercial schools are not obliged to serve in the army. In Germany it has often happened that the universities were closed because all the students and professors had joined the army. Fluorspar to Color Glass. A new use has been found for the mineral called fluorospar in the manufacture of a very beautiful kind of glass. The substance is added to the quartz mixture, and produces an exquisite play of opalescent color. Musical Comedy in England. Musical comedy was introduced into England May 23, 1056.

PROGRESS OF WESTERN INSURANCE COMPANY. In view of the disclosures regarding local and eastern insurance companies, Colorado and the West may well be proud of the records of The American Life and Accident Co., whose Home offices are in the Colorado Building, Denver. This is a Colorado institution which has spread its business far and wide and now has insurance in force in twenty-four states and territories, comprising considerably over half of America. The management is able and conservative and claims are paid at sight. One thing about the American speaks well for it: In their 1904 report not one penny appears for legal expense. This shows there was no litigation. They issue a profit sharing accident and sick-benefit policy which is a new departure along this line. The liberality of their policy and their prompt settlement of all claims is the reason for their phenomenal growth. The management of the American closed a deal last week which is very creditable to them and a cause for congratulation to the policy-holders. The German-American Indemnity Company, Home Offices, Nassau Block, one of the most enterprising of the younger companies and with agencies in three states besides Colorado, was absorbed by the American and transferred all business and assets to the latter company. This increases the business in force of the American by 15 per cent. Measures Growth of Plants. The United States department of agriculture has a clever little instrument which is used to record the daily growth of a plant. The top leaf of a seedling is held in a tiny clasp which in no way harms the plant. To this clasp is attached a small lever, the point of which is furnished with an indelible pencil, which rests lightly upon a paper record. As the plants grow the pencil naturally travels upward and leaves on the paper a record of the plant's growth. This shows the exact increase in growth of plants reared by electricity to those grown normally. Dunce Became Brilliant. Eugene Sue, the author of the world popular "Mysteres de Paris," is one of the many instances of the schoolboy dunce who in after years becomes a shining literary light. Not only was he a failure at school but as a young man he ran through the fortune left him by his father, a fashionable doctor, in less than three years, and took up writing as the last refuge of the institute. His most successful work first appered as a feuilleton in the journal des Debats. Live for One Day Only. Don't worry. It is neither manly, helpful or businesslike, and no good ever resulted from the habit. Worrying can be overcome by exercising the will power. People of sensitive minds worry over some trivial and thoughtless remark, and dwell upon it till it is magnified into a grievous and intentional insult. Past errors, and a doomy anticipation of calamities to come are other forms of the unwhole habit.—London Answers. Mrs. Browning's Sufferings. Mrs. Browning wrote most of her beautiful poems confined to a darkened chamber, to which only her own family and a few devoted friends could be admitted, in great weakness and almost unintermittent suffering, with her favorite spaniel as her companion.
