ABNORMAL Development.

Recently Paris psychologist an
nounced that he had conclusively prov
ed that malformation of the brain pro-
duces intellectual brilliancy. The theory
is that deformity, disease or accident
causes the abnormal development of
some part of the brain, and the result
is genius. In support of this several
cases are mentioned 1t is pointed out
that Milton wrote his Paradise Lost"
while he was blind, and it is said that
the blindness confined his mind to a
certain scope in a manner that made it
possible for him to evolve the great
epic.
Cases of somewhat different nature
are shown in the elegant writings of
Thomas de Quincy and Samuel Taylor

which the excessive use of opium had
made havoc De Quincy describes his

Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1902-10-23

Senator James J. McGillivray, who
spoke in this city last Thursday eve
ming, has had nearly twelve years of
legislative experience. He was first
elected to the assembly in 1890 and re-
elected in 1892, and since that time he
has been in the senate. He is so
popular that all other aspirants for
political honors in jackson, Juneau
and Monroe counties practically give
him the right of way. OF course we
don't like his political views. He
processes a belief in the whole repub-
lican doctrine, including high tariff
taxation and the LaFollette appendix.
But then you know he couldn't enter
tain any political opinions akin to
sound democracy and be elected to
the senate from the thirty-frst dis
