Views and Interviews.

FRANC Taylor: Ny sale went
fairly well considering the weather.
A NOW full of clover hay was sacri-
feed, bringing only $3.50 per ton,
and big pile of wood already sawed
and split went for $40. A dandy
Major Mason colt, years old,
brought but 1914 while an old, worn
out ring boned mare I had sold for
$74. That's the way things usually
go at these auctions.
VIM. Humphrey: When started
my rural mail route there we're less
than 25 Herald takens by patrons.
Now there are nearly so.
Ell. G. Bryhan: I intend to have a
sale in January or February and will
move to Lancaster to reside. Have
rented my farm. By the way, you
should have seen the good work done
with a traction engine harnessed to
a road grading machine down in our
country recently. 1t beat the work
of horses all to smithreens.
G. B. Angus: 1t seems to be a
foregone conclusion that Camp
Douglas will get the national rifle
range and become an important
center as far as military affairs are
concerned. This will give the town
a boom. I am thinking strongly of
moving there and opening a pop
factory.
II had a customer not long since"
said one of our jewelers. the other
day, 'who had trouble with his
watch for years, and when he pur-
chased new and more expensive
one he had no better luck. Finally,
after he had left other jewelers. in
disgust, he came to me. I tested
him with several watches, and
then decided that the trouble was
with him and not with the watches.
He has non-magnetic watch now,
and it keeps perfect time.
''It is a thing do not understand,
but the electricity in the human
body certainly has an effect upon
watches. Generally the effect is
too small to be noticed, but 1 know
of one man who cannot carry an
ordinary watch and keep it going.
1t invariably stops after he has
worn it a few days and refuses to
run. When I carry it 1t keeps ex-
cellent time. The magnetism in
different persons varies to a marked
degree, and often one man can
carry a watch and have it keep
good time, when another person
would find the same watch useless.
If a man has good watch and it
fails to keep good time he can be
pretty sure it is because his body
is too heavily charged with electric
ity."

HOMICIDE TILLhAN

In his decision the chief justice said
IL was undoubtedly true that Tillman
had undergone an ordeal OF the bitterest
attacks on the part Of Gonzales in his
newspaper, the bitterest in the annals
of the State. But the question was
whether Tillman was actuated by malice
when he killed Gonzales, and as 10 that

Sir: I notice in your issue OF the 18th

Criminals" in which you mention the
Commissioner OF Education as recon-
mending that the study OF education as
a preventive OF crime and pauperism be
dropped from his bureau. and as urging
the following reason for his action, that
IL certain child should become known
as possessing bodily signs of degeneracy

You dissent TO this position. drawing
your argument from case Of scarlet
fever. and then say: IF there is a
morally diseased or degenerate pupil
known by bodily peculiarities.' etc, and
you seem 10 imply by what follows in
your editorial that you think there is.
OF there may be. a science by which a
morally diseased or degenerate pupil
car be known by bodily peculiarities, 80
instead OF by his overt act. and that such
pupil should be separated from the
school.
7 cannot believe that you would admit
that a child, in advance Of the commits
sior Of any criminal deeds, should be

his fellows, or marked with a stigma as
a Degenerate" The Jurisprudence OF
all enlightened nations repudiates this
method OF treatment. The English com
mon law protects a person from i'm
prisonment for other than deeds actual

mitted by himself
Common humanity makes a child born
OF criminals and possessing signs OF de-
generacy an object OF tender care and
oommiseration. That child who is 50
unfortunate as 20 inherit a nigh palate
or protruding ears. or a distorted form,
should be singled out and labeled as a
criminal before he has done the first
criminal act, is in the opinion of most
people a fiendish method Of treating the
unfortunate And IL would not be toll
Grated in any civilized community But
after the child has made himself known
as a criminal by overt acts. all agree
that he may be separated from the rest
of the community. and that he may be
placed in a reform school
II is a matter Of common observation
that persons with degenerate bodies
may, when inspired by religious ideals,
resist temptation, or they may like Jean
Vatican, do deeds that bless society in
stead OF iniuTe it, AS long as this is
true no person should be condemned for

SUSQUEHANNA CANAL
TO GIVE ELECTRICITY
Charge That Rivals Try to
Deprive Company of Rights.

HARRISBURG. Feb. 2O.-The house
committee on corporations yesterday
gave a hearing to the opponents of the
bill Of Representative Brosius. of Lam
caster, repeating the act Of 1895 and its
supplements. Incorporating the Susque-
hanna Canal Company.
H. c. Niles, OF York. as counsel for
the company. argued against the meas
ure. He said the acts were part of a
series of legislative contracts between
the States of Pennsylvania and Mary
land. on the strength OF which the state
Of Maryland had granted the company a
loan OF 81 900 600 the Pennsylvania cha--
ter rights being put up as collateral. Al
terw9rd the state Of Maryland foreclosed
the mortgage and sold the charter and
property to the present company.
Mr.. Niles argued that the present bin
was in violation OF the constitutional
prohibition of legislation tending TO i'm
pair contracts.
He declared that the present company
is preparing 10 rehabilitate the canal
and TO construct water power plants ia
supply Lancaster. Columbia. and YorB
with electric power, and that $500 900 has
been expended already.
Mr.. Niles charged that certain Ian
caster and Baltimore interests are back
Z ing the present bill so as to be able
themselves to carry out the project now
| being pushed by his clients.
The advocates Of the bill will be giver
hearing next Tuesday.

field work in the Bisbee copper district
in Arizona during the last autumn and
winter. The district was geoIogicalIy

their geologic relations and origin. Mr..
Ransome is now engaged in preparing
his report which. il is expected. Will af-
ford a more satisfactory basis from
which 10 plan deep prospecting than has
yet been available. For over twenty
years the great Copper Queen mine at
BIsbee. seven miles north OF the Mex
lean line. has been producing an aver
age Of more than 5000. 900 pounds OF
copper annually. During the last two
years a second company the Calumet
and Arizona. has opened up a mine, and
last December was producing from 30 TO
40 tons OF copper a day.
