4 WONDERFUL DISCO VERY

Vienna, March 14.-Prof. Behring,
the discoverer of diptheria serum, in
lecture here has given the details Of
his latest discovery, which is a serum
by means of which cattle can be made
immune to tuberculosis. He said that
after inoculating cattle with the SER
um he had injected into them tubercle
baccilli dissolved in water in the
proportion of four milligrames of
bacilli to four cubic centimetres of
water He had thus treated more
than hundred cattle and none was
affected by tuberculosis.
He said that this proved absolutely
that child treated with the serum
would be immune from consumption
for life. He also alleged that tuber-
culosis in young children could be
cured with the serum, but that it
would not be effective in the case of
adults Prof, Behring supports the
theory that consumption is neither
hereditary not infectious. Every
child, however, is naturally suscepti-
BILE to the disease.

AS TO RAGTIME AND SLANG.

We don't know whether Indianapolis
or Syracuse or Alamo, Ind. is the
Capital of American Literature.
There is no such uncertainty as to the
Capital of American Thought. That
is Chicago. There is more meditation
to the square inch on more subjects
in Chicago than anywhere else more
fruitful discussion, a wider area OF
mind and speech. In school and out,
there are more kinds of teaching in
Chicago than can be found elsewhere.
The town is perpetual Academy in
perpetual session. 1t is much of our
duty and most of our pleasure to diff
fuse and popularize the proceedings of
this vastest of learned societies. To-
day we are at the meeting of the West
End Mothers Council. Miss May
Louise Butler is speaking on "The
Proper Reading for Children. In
Chicago, as i'll this town and in most
other places, the most earnest and au-
thorltative professors of child-lore and
mother-lore are either maids or men.
They are able to reach disinterested
and disattached view impossible to
mothers. Spectators see more of the
game than the players do.
Miss Butler took philosophical
view of rag time, - which she re-
CARDS as a mild catching disease,
"just like measles, humps and whoop-
ing cough" She advised mothers to
twink Mt it little bit" since every
body is bound to have more or less of
it. Still, it is not wholly II children's
disease. Is there a dinner tonight of
the Chicago Board of Trade, of the
Yale graduates of the Northwest, of
hn hrf hnly ialy
makers? Rag time will be the soul
of that dinner. There is some Sc
cret mystic power in rag time. F"
In rag time. there is union.
"Rag time' makes the solemn ca
per, humanizes the prig and puts
bowels into the Philistine. Without
it what is man. Rag time" is the
full measure and calendar of the mu-
steal and poetical accomplishment of
the majority. 1t is the lyric height
of the crowd. 1t is vain to try and
shut your ears against it. From the
time you begin to talk, till your hour
of aphasia or mumbling toothlessness,
rag time" and that other popular
poetry, slang, will be no small part
of the unconscious utterance of every
body not too good for human nature s
daily food.
Miss Butler was wisely tolerant of
slang and advised the mothers not to
worry if their children were ga little
bit slangy.'' Indeed, real human
children have an admirable faculty of
absorbing slang. You can't keep 'em
from it. Build wall around em.
Shut 'em up in tower. By what
process of telepathy, from what men
tai telephones do they pick up the for
hidden words? Slang is part of the
inevitable education of youth and or
deal of parents. New York Sun.

THE PROPOSED RAILROAD

committee had begun negotiations
with a New York syndicate which is
anxious to finance the proposed Mont

construction at once. The News also
understands that Leroy w. Baldwin
formerly of Rutland is "A member of

The chairman of the Montpelier
committee was interviewed by jour
nal reporter concerning the story, and
he stated that the status of the enter
prise is practically as it has been for
the past few months. He also said
that the inactivity of the committee
was due to the fact that Percival w
Clement, chairman of the Rutland
committee, was absent from that city
on European trip, and as he is mas
ter of the situation at that end of the
proposed line, the progress of the
work is necessarily delayed.

A FAIR MINDED SOUTHERN
PAPER.

1t is gratifying to find southern
newspaper discussing the negro ques-
ton in sensible manner, for much
Of this comment which comes from
Dixie land is so void of fairness that
when it reaches northern readers, the
people at whom much of it i; aimed,
the spirit of it is so conspicuously
rabid that it fails in its mission, and
only succeeds in creating a greater
misunderstanding between the north
and south than already existed. The
question at issue is great one and to
the south more particularly it is
charged with possibilities that mean
more than the northerner can possibly
imagine. The south understands the
negro situation, the north does not,
and it is the plain duty of the south
ern press to enlighten the people
above the Mason and Dixon line as to
the true state of affairs.
Among the few southern newspapers
which apparently have adopted this
policy, the Atlanta Constitution stands
prominent. The Constitution under
stands the north and the seekers for
knowle ledge will find much in that
journal that will give enlightenment
on question that is too little under
stood. Here is concise and unimpas-
stoned comment that explains the sit
uation more clearly than does a half
dozen volumes of such stuff as fire.

negro is going through a process of

least, brought the negro out of the
wilds of Africa and introduced him
to civilization. 1t then fitted him. in

walks of life.
And right here, we doubt not, is
where the average northern theorist
gets his mistaken idea about how to
st tie the race problem. With his
eye on these few high peaks of the

GREATER FREEDOM FOR RUSSIA.

The Gar has followed in the foot
steps of his lamented father by issu
ing a manifesto aimed to promote
the welfare of the Russian people. In
it he announces his decision to grant
religious liberty TO his subjects,
which may be taken to mean that the
ban against the Jews is to be removed,
for it is on the followers of this re-
ligion that the hand of religious op-
preston rests heaviest in Russia
So far as Russians of the orthodox
faith are concerned one of the most
welcomed of the promised innovations
is permission for peasant; to leave
their communes and pursue another
occupation than the one in which they
have been reared Hitherto this has
been permitted only by passports and
these were difficult to obtain. The
Gar, however, does not propose to
grant perfect freedom in this matter
for the manifesto merely states that
means are to be found to render it
easier for the individual to sever
connections with the community to
which he belongs" Several other
provisions are commendable in that
they promise better conditions for the
peasantry generally.
The western world understands
little of the real policy of the Rus
sian government but to the casual
student of that nations affairs, and
her history during the past few years
it appears that the Cars concessions
are made from necessity rather from a
spirit of benevolence. The year of
1902 with it's serious riots in various
Russian cities and provinces were a
forceful expression Of the growing
social discomfort in the empire and
indicated that with increased enlight-
eminent had come the desire for in
creased freedom, and it is easy to be-
lieve that Nicholas III observed the
tendency of the times and was wise
accordingly.

a bill has been introduced in tn g
New York Legislature which provides
for local option in the matter of reg
ulating the speed of automobiles. The
proposed law provides that villages
and towns may determine the maxi
mum speed at which chauffeurs may
drive their machines within their
borders IL this law prevails the
progress of automobilists through New
York may be likened to the rise and
fall of the wind. 1t will be remem-
bered that Vermont has law on
this subject, and judging from the fact
that the owners of horseless vehicles
in the State are to meet soon FOR a
discussion Of the last legislature S
act regarding the matter, it may be
assumed that it is not altogether sat
isfactory. The proposed New York
law provides that no automobile is to
pass person walking or driving at a
greater rate of speed than eight miles
an hour, while the Vermont tatute
fixes six miles an hour as the maxi
mum speed for cities and villages, and
fifteen miles an hour for country
roads. What automobilists want is a
uniform law in all States and this
will doubtless be accomplished some
time
