MOST POPULAR NUMBERS.
Seven and Thirteen Are Fixed Upon
in the Minds of the Greater
Number of Men.
“Ask a man to pick out some num
ber between one and ten, and you can
tell him nine times out of ten what
number he has selected, though his se
lection is made mentally," said a man
who. according to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, Is fond of ths old
things, “and when you come to think
of it, the task of naming the correct
number is not a difficult one. In the
eourso of an hour the other day I
asked ten men to think of a certain
number—any number between one and
ten—and I would tell them what num
ber they had fined their mind on
In nine cases out of ten I was correct,
missing It only one* Hie minds oi
nine of the persons selected the num
ber seven, and one of them selected
nine. It Is not diflcult to understand
why the mind should run to the num
ber seven. Even in the case of ths
man who fixed bis mind on the num
ber nine, he told me when It was all
over that his mind had first run to
seven, but he quickly changed to nine
without knowing just why it was that
he changed. Seven is the most prom
inent figure between one and ten. It
Is the most popular number in the line,
and is associated with more things
than any other number, and it Is quite
reasonable that the mind should light
on seven. I made another test the
other day with five persons, asking each
of them to write some number between
one and ten, and give it to a sixth per
son. When the slips had been handed
to the sixth man I said: ‘Seven is the
number on each of the slips.’
” ‘Correct," said the man to whom
they had been handed, and the live
men were a bit bewildered for the
moment by the fact that they had all
hit upon the same number, and that I
was able to tell what the number was.
It would be quite as easy to name a
number between 10 and 20, though I
have made no tests along this line. I
dare say that 13 would be the first
number to flash in the mind, simply
because it 13 the most talked of, and
the only number between 10 and 20
that has the widest association. So
yon can tell there is no trick about it,
and It doesn’t require any knowledge
of the occult philosophies.”
EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Some of Our Larger Cities Hava An
nexed Ground Far Into Adja
cent Farm Lands.
According to a recently Issued census
bulletin, the real rank of cities is not al
ways indicated by the order in which
they stand in the tables of population.
Some great centers have a considerable
part of their massed population lying
outside the municipal boundaries. Bos
ton is a good example; about 1 200,000
people live in sight of the state house
dome, and less than 600,000 of them are
governed by the Boston mayor. Other
cities have annexed far into the farm
lands of the adjacent country, says
Youth’s Companion.
It Is customary to speak of the popula
tion of a state, “in proportion to its
size.” Such a comparison is seldom
made of cities, although it might not be
uninteresting. Pittsburg, for example,
has a population of a third of a million
on 18.000 acres of ground; New York’s
population, little more than ten times
as great, spreads over nearly 12 time*
as many acres.
Chicago was long famous for its an
nexation habit, but since 1890 New York
has annexed much more territory than
Chicago’s total area. New Orleans has
a slightly larger area than Chicago.
Kach of them covers six times the area
of Baltimore.
w afcuiugiim, wmi’u ucuupiea uie iviary*
land part of the ten miles square set
aside for a national capital, is a fair
Bizad city as area goes, for this genera
tion. It may seem small a century hence,
although it looked abundantly ample for
all the purposes of urban development
when laid out.
In the case of cities, as well as of other
corporations, consolidation is plainly
one of the tendencies of the times. More
than one-third of those in the United
States have added to their territory by
annexation since 1890. Townships and
counties are occasionally subdivided, by
reason of local interests, but the cities
*«em to be steadily pushing their boun
daries outward. There are some eco
nomic reasons for this, but the reason
in many cases has been the desire of
their inhabitants to make a "good show
ing."

NO VERDICT IN BUTT TRIAL,
Senator Must Stand Second Trial as
Jury Could not Agree After Nineteen
Hours Deliberation.
Perryville, Feb. 1(5.—Senator
F. 0. Butt, charged by indict
ment of the Pulaski County
Grand Jury with giving Senator
R. R. Adams a bribe of $100,
will not know his fate until the
August term of the Perryville
Circuit Court.
After 19 hours’ deliberation
the jury which heard the evi
dence in the present case an
nounced to Judge Lea that an
agreement was impossible, and
at 5:23 o’clock this evening the
jurors were discharged.

voted to acquit, five to convict,
though on a previous secret vote
j nine stood for conviction.
Jonesboro Banquets Committee.
Jonesboro, Feb. 16. —The syn
odical committee of the Arkan
sas presbytery which has been
in session at various towns over
the state, met in Jonesboro to
day to look into Jonesboro’s
claim as to the site for the erec
tion of the new female college,
which is to be built shortly.
The gentlemen were tendered
a banquet last evening at the
Warner House, and many warm
speeches were made in behalf of
the city. A carriage ride over
the city was given this morning,
and in the afternoon they were
entertained at the Elks’ Hall.
Jonesboro people think they have
a good advantage over the other
cities that are bidding for the
college. As this is the last town
in which they have to meet, the
decision will likely be given out
shortly.

Texas City, Fort Worth, Being
Sold by Representatives
Now in Newport.
The promise and future of
Fort Worth, Texas are assured

Something New in Magazine Making
THE SCRAP BOOK is the most elastic thing that ever happened in the way of a
magazine—elastic enough to carry anything from a tin whistle to a battleship. Every
thing that appeals to the human brain and human heart comes within its compass fiction,
which is the backbone of periodical circulation; biography, review, philosophy, science,
art, poetry, wit, humor, pathos, satire, the weird, the mystical—everything that can be
classified and everything that cannot be classified. A paragraph, a little bit, a saying,
an editorial, a joke, a maxim, an epigram.
Nothing Like It in the World
There isn’t anything in the world just like THE SCRAP BOOK. It is an idea on
which we have been working for several years, and for which we have been gathering
materials. We have bought hundreds and hundreds of scrap books from all over the
country, some of them a century old, and are still buying them. From these books we c
are gathering and classifying an enormous number of gems, and iacts and figures, and
historical and personal bits that are of rare value. Furthermore, we have a corps of peo- .
pie ransacking libraries, reading all the current publications, the leading daily papers,
and digging out curious and quaint facts and useful facts and figures from reference book,
cyclopedia, etc., etc.
Don't fail to get a copy of this first issue of THE SCRAP < f
BOOK. It sells at the price at which all our other maga
zines sell—Ten Cents a fcopy and One Dollar by the Year.
