Basalt Columns In Mexico,

There are columns of basalt in Mex
leo which may be regarded as one of
the natural wonders of the world They
may be seen at Regla falls, and there
Alexander Won Humboldt saw and adj
mired them when he took his famous
journey round the world. AS regular
and symmetrical these columns are as
though they had been fashioned by
human hands, and yet they are entirely
natural and Of volcanic origin. They
are of great height, and no one can see
them for the first time without becom-
ing greatly impressed.
In FingaPs cave, Scotland, there are
columns of basalt somewhat similar to
these, and on st. Helena there are 9th
ers, though the latter, instead of stand
ing erect, are piled together on the
ground and look like trunks of trees.

1t is not very often that a legis-
lature is called upon to run race
with the Grim Reaper of Death, but
this feat actually occurred one day
recently, A bill, originating in the
house. related to wills and express
trusts. 1t had been introduced by
the judiciary committee. 1t was in
tended to cover particular cases,
one of them being the will of a
wealthy lady of St. Paul. who, at
the time the bill was drawn, Was in
poor health. On the morning q the
day when the race occurred d we'll
known St. Paul attorney ASKED a
member to have the bill taken from
general orders, amended and passed,
giving as a reason that the lady in.
question had grown suddenly worse
and there was some danger of her
demise before the bill became a law
The bill was taken from general
amended at length and then
passed. Without sending the bill
to the engrossing room, which is
always the case where bill has
been amended, the chief clerk of
the house reported the bill to the
senate. There, under suspension of
the rules, the bill was given it's
first reading aud sent to the
judiciary committee. That commit
tee held a hurried meeting, and
amended the title, and the first
section, correcting errors, and re-
ported the bill back to the senate
The rules were then suspended and
the bill passed, as amended. 1t
was returned to the house TOO late
for consideration that day, but after
eight O'Clock that night the bill,
before the amendments had been
concurred in and the bill repassed
by the house, it was engrossed aud
enrolled, and already for the sig
natures of the different officers, in
Guiding the Governor, so that before
the lady passed into the great
beyond a law had been enacted
making her will, dealing with ex-
press trusts, valid. It was a race
of interest to the few people who
were interested, and who were
acquainted with the facts, and prob
ably would never have been entered
as history, had not the writer of
this article been one of the actors in
the drama.
High schools all over the State
will receive $1,000 State aid next
year. Rural schools, complying
with the conditions imposed upon
rural schools in order to get
State aid, will receive 1926 each,
while the graded and semi-graded
schools will receive from $3.50 to
$500 each. These items are the re-
suit of an active effort on the part
of the friends of education ip the
State, a senate bill to this effect
having already passed both houses.
Each school is treated alike. re-

opportunity the country gets to
hold up the State, and the members
from the country stick together
we'll. The representatives from the
cities having the high schools with
the largest enrolment would like to
have seen the appropriation dis
trlbuted pro rata among the stu
dents, giving their schools the lion S
share, but the attempt wouldn t
work, and the country towns having
high schools, and which help to
oulld up the big cities, will share
equally with them in this money, if
no other.
The rural school appropriation is
increased from 500 to 1925, and
this will be pleasing news to the 43
districts of Redwo county which
were entitled to the apportionment
last year, and which, with others,
will undoubtedly make break for
the increased amount this year.
Let Red wood county schools see to
it that they keep the county in the
front rank for drawing this State
aid this year, and all years to come.
Mr. Race will undoubtedly do his
part-let the school districts do
what they should.
The present session Of the legis-
lature has looked we'll to the educa-
tlonal interests of the State, and
certainly no greater progress has
ever been made for educational
vancement than during the past
three months. J. A. S.

Similarity of Animals and Men.

1t has been observed that if the
tanned dog is taken back to the wild
state he loses his voice. These sound
ing voices are produced in the animal
throat i'll a way similar to human Ian
guage, but are not voices proper nor
languages" proper, and yet they are
full of psychological expression and re-
veal the animals psychic states. If we
tickle a chimpanzee in the armpit, the
touch produces a grin on the face SINH
lar to that of man under like circum-
stances He also emits laughterlike
sounds. The same is the case with the
ourang outang. The gorilla knits the
brow when angry, just like men.
We often observe in apes complete
change in the facial muscles when
something is going to happen, be it
agreeable or disagreeable. 1t is SO also
with the child. In apes there is evil
IDENTITY the same connection between
the facial muscles and vocal muscles as
in man.

THE SANE OLD Way Continued.
FROM FIRST PAGE

ing out Judge Pond, one Of the
Democratic judges of Hennepin
county. The opponents were not
back ward in making this statement,
and adding still further, that Judge
Pond was not up to the standard OF
the Hennepin bench. This bill,
they claimed, would give him all Of
the Democratic votes of Hennepin
county, and enough Republican
votes to nominate him, the latter
votes coming to him more from the
standpoint of friendly feeling than
from the standpoint of ability. The
opponents claimed that they wanted
to beat Judge Pond under the con-
vention system, or under the system
of making a Republican vote for a
Republican. or Democrat for a
Democrat. Judge Pond was around
the legislature for several days
before the bill was recommended to
pass, and it is apparent that he
convinced enough Republicans that
he was alright to work in harmony
with the solid Democratic vote, and
hence the bill was advanced a peg.
Three or four Republican repre-
sentatives from Hennepin county
were for the bill-the others were
all against it, and they appealed o
the members of the house not to
force this bill upon them, but the
members from other points were
deaf, and voted against the appeal.
Judge Pond feels confident, if the
bill passes. that be will have an
easy run for nomination next year.
Judge Brooks, the other Democratic
member of the Hennepin bench, is
regarded as a man of unusual
ability, and is not likely to have
any opposition.
