SO CIOLOG ICAL


Chief Justice Lore of Delaware in
his charge to the grand jury at Will
mington, Monday, in connection with
the lynching of the negro, White, for
the murder of Helen Bishop, June Is,
said that lynching was a crime against
the law of both God and man and that
every responsible participant in such
an act is a wilful murderer" He de-
clared that no man had a right to
commit this crime because he feared
some other person would fail in the
performance of his duty. He conclud-
ed that this bold generalization which
has commanded the attention of the
whole country that "lynching and mob
law should receive no favor at the
hands of patriotic lei There must
be government or no government. The
line of cleavage is clear. All history
teaches that the prevalence of mob
law is the end of free government"

Gunner Treanor's Record.

In the recent naval target practice
off Martha's Vineyard, the gunners Of
the battleship Indiana ranked first
for six and eight-inch guns and the
long distance target record of the
world was beaten by H. w. Treanor,
one of the Indiana's men, by sending
four eight-inch shots one after the
other into the bull's-eye at a distance
of 1,600 yards while the Indiana was
steaming at eight knots an hour and
all within two minutes and eighteen
seconds. Prior to that day Treanor
had been regarded as only a novice
in gunnery, having been a pointer
since last January.
In this practice the target is a frame
of white 16x21 feet set up on a buoy
with black bulls eye four feet in diam
eter. The officers and crew cheered
Treanor's feat to the echo.

RELIGIOUS
WRIGHT on Practical Relation.

Carroll D. Wright president of the
Unitarian conference, addressed that
body at Atlantic City on Tuesday on
the growth of practical religion. He
said that the surest temperance re-
form at the present time was the fact
that men who use liquor cannot get
employment on u great railroads.
Labor unions were in the right direc-
ton, because their principles were
based on the rights of all men and
sooner or later their actions would
conform to their principles. Finally
he said there was a new patriotism
which means personal sacrifice and
social service, and is higher than that
of the battlefield. The increasing de-
mand in publicity in all affairs was
also a sign of hope. Religion had re-
formed charity in the direction of uni
versity settlements.

Major Purse of Savannah, Ga, said
that the congress should oppose a re-
c~iprocity treaty with Cuba unless such
a treaty is to be made with France
and other countries. 1t was the gen
al opinion of the farmers that this
country should become a sugar export,
ing instead of an importing country,
by fostering both cane and beet sugar
growing. Secretary Cortelyou made

CATTLE EMBARGO LIFTED
British Ports Again Open to Men
England Live Stock Shipments.

Washington special. - Secretary
Wilson a that the receipt through
the state department of an official
notice that Great Britain had removed
its embargo on cattle and sheep from
the New England ports was the con-
clusion Of the great work in which
the department had been engaged
since Dec. l for the eradication Of
foot and mouth disease from the New
England states and the restoration Of
the traffic to the condition 1t was in
before this outbreak occurred. THE
secretary regards this as one of (the
most important and valuable pieces Of
work the department has done for
American agriculture. He says:
mo country before has succeeded
In stamping out such an extensive
outbreak of this disease. The work
was accomplished under great difficult
ties. The weather in New England last
December was very inclement, and
the inspectors and their assistants
we're obliged to work in open country,
with the thermometer far below zero.
Some Of the men had their extremities
frozen and were disabled. Notwith-
standing these obstacles the woxk
went forward constantly and rapidly.
1t is difficult even at this time to un.
derstand how the pits were dug in the
frozen ground for burying the car
casses, and how the disinfectants
were applied when everything of q
liquid nature became frozen in .,
short time after it was exposed I'd
the atmosphere. But the work wa1
SO thorough that in not a single cas-
where the ~disinfection was conducted
by the departments representative
did the disease reoccur when fred
cattle were introduced.

MAYOR HARRISON UNDERSTOOD
He Says There is Dishonesty in Every
Office In That City-Graft and All
Kinds of Graft to be Found-Fault
is With Employees.

Chicago, Oct. 6.-There is graft
In every department of the city hall,
all kinds of graft, little graft and big
graft" declared Mayor Harrison yes
terday in a sweeping indictment
against many of the employees oil
his administration. He made this
statement in DEFENSE of the reads OF
departments and incidentally in de.
tense of Health Commissioner Rey'
nolds, styling that they were
unable to control the acts OF
their subordinates. He made the gen
eral charge, not against and depart
ment head, but against the employees
Of the departments.
IF l had the power to discharge ev'
cry man suspected Of grating, EN-
window in the building more rapidly
pioyes would be flying out oil every
than they did at the beginning of the
Swift administration" continued the
chief executive. And l wish | had
the power-I certainly would get ev.
cry one Of them. l have Is months left
and | will get a few of them even In
der the present conditions"
The mayor said that the trouble
was that he couldn't catch the graft
ers because he was required to prove
charges before the civil service com,
mission. He pleaded for an amend
ment to the civil service law whereby
the head of the department could dis
charge any employee without trial.
One Of the most urgent demands
on the hex Legislature is that it make
this change in the law" said the may
or. THAT would stop much of the
grating. The head of the department
does not have the right to say who
shall receive a position upon the dis
charge of another employe. So long
as there is anything to inspect tempta'
lions will be offered the inspectors
and some of them will fall. Well-to-do
people often place the temptation be
fore the public employee"
The mayor said that two aldermen
and another man had convinced him
that q certain city empIoye had been
grating and charges were filed
against the employe. The case wa:
heard and the commission notified
the mayor that the man must be rein
stated. The mayor was given a little
time and offered to permit the EN-
ploye to return to work on the prom
ise that he would resign.
81 was morally certain that EN-
ploye had been grating, but we were
unable to get him out by civil service
trial and he would be in the employ
meat OF the city today If he had the
nerve to take a bluff. He was afraiC
that the commission would fnC
against him and he stepped out"

SCIENTIFIC
New Idea of Hay Fever.


Prof. Dunbar of Hamburg, Germany,
who for seven years has studied the
problem Of hay fever, throws much
light on that subject in an article
translated by the Scientific American.
He says that the disease is caused by
the pollen Of grasses, but not by any
mechanical irritation. He has taken
from pollen a poison or toxin which
being soluble in water, produces hay
fever when a drop of it is put in the
eye or nose. A curative serum was
then produced by inoculating animals.
Experiments since January of the
present year have shown that this
serum when applied four or five times
to hay fever patients resulted in cures.
SO far DR.. Dunbar has not been able
to get a toxin from any plant not of
the grass family.
