Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1901-01-10

The French gentlemen says the New
York Journal, have always been very
happy in the coming of phrases and
the manufacture of proverbs. La
Rochefoucauld and many others have
done much to supply the world with
peptonized wisdom. OF all the wise
French sayings, none Is more valuable
or praiseworthy than the one which,
translated, is: Beware Of they say +"
Under they say" hides every form of
SANDER. Under ''they say hides the
cowardice that dares not attack openly.
Do not get the "they say" habit. Do
not encourage that habit. Tell chill
dren and young men and all women
under your influence not to listen will
lingly to they say and not to repeat
the lies which have s'they say" for a
foundation. The United States ap-
pears to be the favorite home of ''they
."Yes, he gets a big salary, but they
say he has a pull with the boss" That
is "they say" trying to detract from
honest ability. Eyes, his married life
seems happy, but they say he treats
her cruelty" There you have "they
say" attacking decency from jealousy.
"They say is busy in almost every
house and on almost every tongue in
this country. 1t is the most active of
slanderous agents on earth. When you
hear a man preface slanderous state
ment with "they say" ask him these
questions: Who is ''they?" Who says
the particular thing which you now put
into circulation? What do you know
about that particular piece Of SANDER
that you are spreading abroad with so
much enjoyment? Do you think you
are to be excused for your malicious
gossip merely because you drag in
"they say?" Ask yourelf those same
questions, when you begin one of the
easy "they say attacks on character.
A few such questions put to yourself
and others would soon discourage the
habit in your neighborhood. Think it
over Remember that this world needs
charity at least as much as dry earth
needs rain. ''They say is the mean
est and therefore the most despicable
of all attacks on decent human charity.
See If you cannot do something to dis
courage it.

Paris. Oct. 2s-Prof Caesar I.ombroso,
the eminent Italian criminologist. has
spent three weeks in Paris on his way
back to Turin from Amsterdam, where he
attended the recent sitting OF the congress
of Criminolosy Or. Pozzi gave recep-
ton In honor OF the famous psychiatrist.
at which the latter examined a lot OF
plaster casts of heads which had been
sent TO DR. Pozzi by the noted German
Uranium specialist. Virchow.
For the cdinca ton OF the physicians
and surgeons present at the reception
Professor Lombroso delivered an extern
poraneous lecture In which he attributed
lunacy TO the Car the Kaiser. King Ed
ward, the Sultan OF Turkey. Prince Fer
dinand OF Bulgaria, Archduke otto. the
heir to the Austrian throne, and King
Alfonso of Spain
Professor Lombroso made an examina-
tion before his distinguished auditors OF

Compiegne lately during the latter's
visit To France. by Sculptor Denis Pincn
for bust. Lombroso explained the Var-
Gus bumps and wound up thus:
The ruler OF Russia is not a crlminally
inclined lunatic but AN Innocent melan-
choly idiot, the easiest possible tool Ia
the hands of q fiattering influence.
King Edwards bumps show general
degeneracy, incapacity To comprehend abb
stract concepts or imagine distant things:

The professor predicted growing self
indulgence and passvity I'm the case of

In regard TO both the Kaiser and the

When Professor Lombroso had finished
his discourse some one in the notable
company remarked that Europe was ~
the mercy OF crazy rulers
Thereupon Dr. Championiere. another
famous criminolocist supported Profcs-
sir Lombroso saying:
1t is appalling TO consider the real
mental level Of most OF those people who
have inherited or achieved political or
other prominence"
Then Napoleon III. Emile Illivier. Jo-
scph Chamberlain Cecil Rhodes Rudynrd
Kipling and Felix Faure were discussed.
and they also were pronounced mentally
unsouad.
Another remarkable assertion made in
