Brainy People.

Having heavy brain is no proof of in
tellectual power. Many persons of great
cerebral weight are not at all remarkable
for mental distinction. 1t has gone over
the whole country that BEN. BUTLER's
brain weighed four ounces more than
WEBsTER's, his previously holding the
champion American record, and NAPo-
Icons did not weigh near so much as
that OF RULLoFF, the murderer. WEBsTER's
gray matter weighed 53k ounces. but it
was estimated that the loss in weightldue
to disease was equal to more than ten
ounces.

VI course 1t VIII De wondered why
man of the most brains should be natu-
ralist, instead of a supreme judge or an
editor or dry goods clerk, but what we
have said above explains it partially.
There is scientific authority for the sta e.
ment that 1.-THE amount of gray matter
contained in given space depends much
upon the depth to which the convolutions
penetrate.'' Now BEN was a convoluted
man, in both brain and belly, audit is not
surprising, therefore, that his cerebral
filling wculd pull the steelyards further
down than DAMS.
The English and American brain aver
age, it appears from the Worlds statistics,
is little over fifty ounces. That is, Tor
men. Women go five ounces less, though
one woman is known of who had record
of fifty-four ounces. but she was an in
significant person known best to the po-
lice.
To come back to WEBSTER. His hat
band measured 25 inches, against an
average of 217z for countrymen and % for
city people. The fcaIiper measurement"
from the center of the forehead to the
most prominent part of the back-head,
was Ga inches; the diameter, just above
the ears, z inches; the vertical elevation
from the opening of each ear was nearly
inches. We do not find anything in the
books giving rules for weighing the
brains of living people.

Helena Heraldings and News Notes.

The ladies took advantage of the
bright and balmy springlike weather
last Friday to 90 shopping, visiting
and walking. We hope they may soon
again have another favorable oppor-
tunity for all outing.
1t woald be we'll for every young per-
son to keep classified crap-book. The
world is making history very fast these
days, and there are many things they
may wish to remember in the future.
They should also keep a debit and
credit account with themselves and a
diary. The small amount of time de-
voted to concise and tersely written
diary would be we'll spent.
The Cleveland Academy closed last
Friday night with an exhibition of the
skill and proficiency of the pupils 10 a
we'll arranged programme of music
and recitations creditably rendered.
The school numbers l65 pupils and is
presided over by Principal G. E. Will
liams, assisted by Miss Phillis Adkin-
son. The teachers are capable and ex-
emplary and we are told that the at
tendance, progress and behavior of the
scholars have been very good. We are
pleased tc know that the colored peo-
pie have 30 good school in their
midst.
It is sad to think of the wanton de-
struction Of the families of birds and
animals alike all over the world. Some
species Of aniinalsand birds are extinct,
and it is to I've regretted that a whole
sale destruction Of game, non-game and
insect-eating birds continues with una
bated fury. And at home, with US,
that charming minstrel of the wood
lands, the garden and the grove-the
Carolina mocking bird--is ruthlessly
slaughtered by the thoughtless slayers
of small birds.
Listen to the mocking bird" in the
silence of some beautiful moon-lit night,
or in the quiet hours of some lovely
summers morning, as the full, rich
tones of its melodious voice vibrate
upon the air. Note the strength of its
voice, it's wonderful powers of imita-
ton, and the variety, purity and sweet
ness Of its music, and then remember
that it destroys iDsectiferous life that
would otherwise prey upon your fruits
and vegetation, and then determine
whether you can sanction the killing
of these innocent birds simply, for
sooth, because they eat little of the
fruit they help t. protect for you.
These "tenants of the free, barren
air." whose exquisitely builded homes
are "made without hands," should be
welcomed under the caves of your
houses everywhere.
Protect the mocking bird, for the law
would protect it; and let it eat little
fruit as payment for the work it does
for you. The mocking-bird is not beau
tiful. Providence distributes bis gifts
and did not give it both voice and
plumage, yet its phenomenal music
challenges our admiration and should
forbid its destruction.
We wish that the ladies, who are
doing 90 much on many ethical lines
Of duty, to-day, would turn their atten-
ton to the devising of ways and means
to protect the birds of beautiful plum
age.

At such time as this when corpora

State and municipal authorities-when
money attempts to Influence courts

who, in defiance, uttered the following
words on his return from exile:-"My
