MENTAL CAPACITY AND BRAIN
WEIGHT.

Mental development and power is
said TO depend, all things being equal.
upon the size and weight Of the BRAIN
and the cOmpleXity and depth Of the
cQnvOlUtiOns of its gray matter. Fine
ness Of texture has much. however
to do with quality of brain and the re-
lation OF brain weight and size to size
Of the frame with capacity. The pow
er OF the neurone of the gray cOrteX
is not exactly measured. 1t has been
said that Byron's hat was TOO small
for the head Of any Of his cOntem-
pOraries; Gambetta's brain was the
smallest Of all European statesmen,
while an American senator Of ability,
a man from Indiana, is said to have
had the smallest head, compared with
the heads OF his colleagues, while the
biggest heads were owned by Benja-
min F. Butler and a coIored porter at
the capitol. Professor Walleyer re
ported to the Prussian Academy of
Sciences measurements Of the skull
Of the Philosopher Leibnitz, which
was discovered a few years ago in re
pairing a church in Hanover. The
cranial cavity measured 1922 cubic
centimeters, indicating a brain weigh
ing 1.257 grammes, which is unusual
Iy small. The contour Of the skull
shows that Leibnitz was Of Slavic or
igin.

senator.
The registration for the first day
was larger than any previous frs
day, ninety-eight students being en-
rolled, and the number is steadily in
creasing.
The campus has been improved
during vacation. Cement walks
have been laid and numerous trees
planted. The building has been rem
ovated and improved. New dressing
rooms for the students and a room
fer the teachers, q w class room
and the Young Women's Christian
association are some OF the changes
which are deeply appreciated by ev-
eryone.

champion of the peoples interests
Ike George Turner, will be sent to
the United States senate.
The candidacy of Hamilton must
be decidedly embarrassing TO Sena-
tor Ankeny. who is pledged through
an offensive and defensive alliance
formed three years ago to support
Foster for reelection. Under the cir
.cumstances it would undoubtedly be
a decided relief to Ankeny if Foster
would submit to the inevitable and
withdraw from a race in which he has
not a ghost of a show to win.
The split in the republican ranks
Of Pierce county that will result from
the fight between Hamilton and Eos
ter will give an excellent opportunity
for the friends Of Governor Mcbride
again to capture the delega-
ton to the state convention
through an alliance with Congressman

The Statesman is informed that
County Treasurer HawIey has com
piled strictly with the law in making
quarterly financial reports to the di-
rectors Of School District No. /. The
board, however, has completely ig-
nored the law laid down in Section 90
of the code Of public instruction re
quiring AN annual printed report to
the taxpayers Of the district. showing
in detail the receipts and disburse-
ments OF the school funds"
The directors Of this school dis
trict are probably the only public Of
ficials il the city or county Who neg
lect or refuse to make the reports re
quired by the laws which they take
an oath to obey. No director has ever
offered any excuse for this violation
of the law. The board has authority

accountant to make the report requir-
ed, and no one would object to the
payment Of d reasonable amount for
that purpose.
As the annual disbursements Of this
school district are more than half
those Of the city or the county gov
eminent it is certainly important to
the taxpayers that they should know
just how and for what their money is

The circuit court at Pendleton has
decided that the taxes levied by the
Umatilla, county assessor against the
Ankeny bank there are not excessive
and that the bank musuC pay. 1t re
mains to be seen whether or not a
similar decision will be made in the
case of the Ankenv bank in this city
in its attempt to eyade paying its
school tax. Ii all taxpayers followed
the example Of the Ankeny banks in
going into the courts to hght the pay

Another charge against the two men Ia
that Twining and Cornell, on the " of

the Trust Company to close its doors.

Chicago VIII Soon overcome
Shortage of Small Bills.
CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-Reports that a
currency famine exists in this city are
much overdrawn. Local bankers are
willing to admit that there Is a short
supply of small bills, such as ives. tens
and ~twenties, but there is plenty Of
gold to make up this deficiency.
Country correspondents of the local
banks will not pay the express charges
on the yellow metal, and as much of
the small currency Is being used at this
season Of the year the scarcity of bills
is annoying. but by no means serious.
The matter will soon settle itself, as n

METROPOLITAN was a weak feature or

Amalgamated Copper showed con-
siderable strength and activity IN the
bullish attitude of important trade IN
t%erests. The street takes 1t that the
present bull interest can, to n consider
able extent, influence the price of the

that trade authorities abroad are CO.
