cH1LE's NEW LIQUOR LAW.

The new liquor law which went into effect in Chile on March Is. copies of which have just reached here, may be said to put that nation among the most advanced in scientific treatment of the traffic of intoXicants.
 Dramshop licenses are offered for sale every three years to the highest bidder, but none may be granted with in POO yards of any church. school, charitable institution or military bar rack. No liquors may be sold in any theater or any similar place of public amusement. nor in any railway train. nor to minors. nor between midnight and a. m.
 No attempt is made, however, to make Sunday a sdryn day According to the habit of the Latin races. in this respect more indivldualistic t1an the English-speaking. the modification of the flesh by deprivation of liquor on Sunday is left to the Individual con sciences and no effort is made to en- force the religious notions of one part of the community upon the other.
 An effort is made to lessen the po- litical influence of the dramshop by forbidding any public officials what 9oSNCA to HOltl OI De III any way inter- ested in any liquor license. The Chil- can liquor dealer who wishes to hold public office must first change his oc- cupation. and the public official who wishes to deal in intoxicants must re- sign.
 The principle of local option is fully recognized. The people of any section of city may by vote establish q pro- hibltlon district and absolutely ey- cIude. the saloon from the neighbor- hood of their homes.
 The public interest Tn seeing thot those who will drink shall not be led 10 use poisons worse than alcohol is also recognized Every distillery and brewery is in charge of public chem ISL It's product is nnder control. both III quantity and qrElty. and the pen altleS for adulteration are severe.
 OHenses against the law arc triad summarily. No case can be continnea more than Io days. ana no judge may withhold his decision more than five days As Chile's reputation for en. iofcing the laws is probably highest aihong the states south of Mexico if IS reasonable to believe that it's new llduor law will be well enforced = Chicago Inter Ocean.

HEREDITY.

It IS one of the curioSities of hered- ity that while the children of young parents are usually brighter than the children of old parents. the children Of old parents develop into the most intelligent men and women. A good illustration of this is to compare the savage races, which marry at very early age, with the white race. which IS the latest in marrying of all races
 Teachers among the negroes of the south, in the Philippines. in Polynesia and in Australia tell us that the dark skinned children in their schools are brighter than the white children. vet we never look for great men among these races, and we would not find them if we did look.
 All of the great men of the world like Aristotle, Bacon, Culver and Franklin, have been sons of very old men. When eminent men like King David. the Catos of Rome, the elder William Pitt and certain branches of the Dana, Lee and Livingston families of America have sons late in life. the eminence is continued to the next generation. but when eminent men like Arkwright, Bulwer-Lytton. Cole ridge, Cromwell, Peter the Great and Solomon have sons early in life, the eminence immediately disappears.
 Another good illustration may be found in the British nobility Each noble family begins with an eminent man, and the noble branch is contin- ued down through the eldest son. It has been frequently observed fact that the eminence is very rarely con- tinued to the third generation. and usually disappears in the second. It is true that eminent men have been produced in these noble families, but during the 800 years in which the law of prfmogeniture has been in force every such case has come about through some accident which has eliminated the eldest of the eldest and has brought in some younger branch to inherit the title.
 The conclusion to be drawn from this is that young men should not marry before they are twenty five. Neither should they remain old bach elors beyond thirty. Unmarried peo- pie do not live as long as married peo- pie and no creature is so miserable as an old bachelor with relatives.

BATTY'S BEARS COMING.
Will Appear Under Heavy Bonds at the
 Jacques.


 Since Batty's bears maimed an in .truding boy in New Haven last Mon day some doubt has been felt as to whether they would be able to fill their engagement at the Jacques next week. As announced in the papers, suit has been brought against MT Batty by the boys father, damages of $15,O00 being claimed. They were permitted to ap- pear in New Haven this week, how ever, through an arrangement between the litigant's counsel, and they have proved such an extraordinary attrac- tion there that Manager PoIi has filed a $15,OO0 bond to permit their being brought to the Jacques. He felt that, having advertised the animals to ap- pear here and they proving even greater novelty than he had antici- pated, that it would be robbing his Waterbury patrons not to exhibit them. They will be shown at the Jacques. therefore, next Monday afternoon and every afternoon and evening during the week, and Manager Poli Is sure they will prove as big noveltH as they are ID New Haven this week.

I have lost lots of time working on that old fences You are sure of that?' .Yes, sir.'' You can't be mistaken when you testify in this case on oath, that you have lost a whole lot of time in working on that old fence?"
 No, sir" That's as true as anything else you have sworn to in this case?o
 Yes" l Didn't you testify little while ago that you had not built your share ot a new fence because you hadn't time?' "Yes. sir; butt Hold on! Stop right there. Didn't you testify moment ago that you had lost lots of time putting repairs on the old fence?,'
