LeFT.HkNDEo CHILDREN STUPID.
1t Must Re True, For Chicago Professor
Has Discovered 1t.

Professor T. w Smedley. of the
child study department OF the public
schools. declares n connection between
right and left-handedness and intel
lectuality in children has been dis
covered From experiments he is con-
vinced that right-handed children are
naturally the brighter. He has found
that n large percentage of the boys at
John Worthy School are ambidextrous.
Pupils whose speech is affected ana
who find difficulty in articulation are
most often left-handed.
The explanation is this: The right
hand is controlled from the left side
of the brain and the left hand from
the right side of the brain Speech is
controlled by the right side Of the
brain. The over-deyelopment of one
hand or the other is thought in this
way to affect speech.
Professor Smedley is guarded in his
statements, saying that it will take a
long time TO work ont the problem, if
il is solved. of the connection between
the hand and the brain. He does not
believe that dexterity is directly con-
nected with intelligence, hut that it is
noticeable through its effect upon
speech.
II am not sure what we shall be able
to do with this knowledge when we
are more certain about it, said Pro-
fessor Smedley. 1T should lead to dis.
coveries Of methods in the training Of
children which may be beneficial. At
present am inclined TO advise parents
not to struggle with left-handed chill
dren 10 make them right-handed. There
is n physical reason why they have n
tendency that way.'-Chicago Trib'

AT THE BITTER ROOT RANCH
Preparations Are Going Forward for
Extensive Beet Sugar Experiments
at the Daily Ranch

It is a matter of interest to every citi-
zen of Montana that beet culture is to
be established on the DAILY ranch in the
Bitter Root. For two years the ranch
has been a sort Of experimental sta
ton and it has been demonstrated be-
yond doubt that the soil is admirably
adapted for that purpose.
Marcus, DAILY intended to turn all the
ranch, excepting only the portion devot-
ed to stock. into a beet farm And also
intended the purchase of additional land
on all sides. He intended to put up
buildings and establish sugar refinery
for he was certain that after he had
demonstrated to the farmers of Mon
tana that there was more money in beets
than in any other farm product at less
trouble to raise, all would take it up,
and he would buy the beets for his re-
finery.
Cottages were to be erected for the men
employed, just as there was for the
hands employed on the stock farm, and
it was to be an ideal village, complete
in itself. The arrival of several sugar
experts and men we'll known in the field
of beet culture. is considered conclusive
proof that Mrs. Daily will carry out the
wishes of her husband. She is now at
the ranch. with her daughter, Mrs. J.
Carroll Brown.

prised, to say the least, for, as l have
said, l was under the impression l was
stranger to everyone here.
AS I turned and saw a young fellow
who once worked for me back in New
York state, and who started out to make
his fortune several years ago, surprise
nearly overcame me for a moment. Well
inside of a minute we were talking over
old times in great shape. and all my
lonesomeness had departed.
Not only has this man made my stay
in Butte pleasant, but he has given me
the addresses Of several men I knew
back east who are now living in Seattle,
Tacoma, Portland and Frisco, through
which cities I will pass. Oh. yes, and
when I told my friend I was going to
Manila before returning home he gave
me the address there of another young
fellow who was formerly in my employ.
If these things do not show that the
world is a small place and that we can
always. in any city, find some one we
know, if we can but know where to look
for him, do not know what does Butte,
believe. has representatives from every
country and every section of every coun-
try in the world.''

END OF FAMOUS MURDER TRIAL
Bob Glaze, Well Known to Old Timers,
Will Serve a Life
SonfAncn

Many old Comstockers in this county
will be interested in the outcome of the
trial of Robert E. Glaze, who shot and
killed William Trewella in San Francisco
some months ago. Trewella lived at
Virginia City, Nevada. many years and
was we'll and favorably known by near
ly all residents of the town. After leav-
ing there he went to San Francisco and
engaged in the hotel business with Glaze.
Trewella accused Glaze of appropriating
more than his share of the profits of the
business and Glaze shot and killed him.
A short time ago Glaze was tried con-
victed and sentenced to life Imprisonment
at San Quentin.

"The country around Cody, Wyoming,

interview with an Inter Mountain re3
