HAD FORMED AN OPINION.
In submitting its report to Governor Campbell, the
Texas prison investigation committee said that condi-
tions had been found to be so bad that, in its opinion,
an extra session of the Legislature should hi
to pass remedial measures.
The governor does not believe that the committee
has reached a sound conclusion, and he lias refused
to call the lawmakers together.
This decision sivms not to have been altogether
unexpected, for the "El Paso Times" says:
"Nor is there any surprise that he refused to
eall the Legislature in session, since the Legisla-
ture would undoubtedly confirm the committee's
findings and enact the necessary legislation,
which would result in discounting tiov rnor
Campbell's declarations i.nd ousting some of his

The members of the House of Lords

1C.544 acres for a duke. 47,500 for a
marquess, 30,^17 for an earl, 15,324 for a

as can be ascertained,'' continues the
correspondent, "the railroad directors in
the House of Lords number forty-two
and the bank directors and bank partners
forty-four, but there are possibly more.
Lords Rothschild, Averbury, Strathconv

are conspicuous as Industrial capitalists,

Dr. Charles W Eliot, who says that

"there is not a position in the world
in which so much can be imparted and
acquired as that filled by the mother,

taste for reading, "finds her means of
Intellectual development outside of the

household arts, in her study of clpthes
for herself and her family, in the en-
forced oareful expenditure of monry.
in reading and in her daily intercourse
with father and mother, brothers and
sisters, companions and acquaintances.
From these things much Intellectual
training can be extracted by a girl wh>
thinks, and the girl who does not think

to think much at any time of her life"
