WHAT

These are ieonoclastic days, but there is a limit, and that limit seems to
 have been reached by the medical jour- nal which says: The fact is that, ais every observant medical. practitioner
 sooner or later realizes, there is no
 great difference of the kind that theo-
 ries of birth" assume between one
 man and another. The basis of this fact, no doubt, is that the whole popu- lation of this country Is So mixed and
 so connected by marriage that for any one individual to pride himself or her.
 self on ancestry is a scientific absurdi- Ity.
 No great difference between us, or some of us? Go to, and also come off!
 No great difference between the town
 born of New Haven and the immi- grants? No great difference between
 New Haven's First Families and the last ones. or even those next to the first? Is there any "obseryant medical practitioner" in New Haven who dares to stand up and say that we are all
 pretty much alike? We trow not.
 There are "observant medical practi- tioners" in this town who have done pretty well by noticing the difference
 between the best and the others and steering their canoes accordingly.
 There will be no testimony about equality from them, or from anybody
 else who is observant. It needs not
 half an unobservant eye to see the su- periority Of the real people in New Ha-
 ven to those who are not real, and never can be.

We can imagine how that man would speak of the katydids in tlle morning. Perhaps, though. he would not be justified in giving the whole credit to them for his cure.

It may be answered, because they prefer to. But that will not do. There Is a reason for. every thing. and naturalists above all men should be engaged in finding 1t out.

These he encouraged to enter matrimony by free grants of land, payment of all marriage fees and an annuity of fifty rubles a year for every child born. He succeeded in removing from his estate, by rather harsh means, all deformed and siekly persons. and at- itracted handsome giants from all parts tof the province by granting them valu- able privileges. Those who refused to marry the partners he selected were un- tremendously deported: Since the in stltution of this human beauty farm forty model marriages have taken place and over one hundred children have been born, nearly all of them being Immensely superior to the average Russian peasant children in strength land beauty.

THE LAUScHIAG.

Though everybody in this State who thought he ought to be invited to the launching Of the battleship Connecticut wasn't the launching took place, and though it wasn't as smooth an affair as it might have been the big ship is safely in the water and will soon be prepared to make it unsafe for hostile battle ships to be in the water. The hitch in the performance was one that will be more pleasing to the Women's -Chris- tian Temperance Union than to super stitious old salts. When the vessel be- gan. to move and the champagne bottle with which the ship was to be chris ltened'' should have been broken Miss
 Welles failed to break 1t. Admiral Rodgers tried to remedy the nlishap, and he failed. Finally a humble but
 husky ironworker got hold of the bottle and succeeded in smashing it and let lting the champagne out. .4tz..

PEACE PR ESfD ESTS.

President Roosevelt has shown finn- self to be a man of peace, much to the ldiscomfiture of the democrats who were charging him with being a war-lord. His action is both soothing and encour- aging to all but the democrats. It Is also soothing and encouraging to see that other presidents on this continent
 are also men of peace. Through the persistent efforts of General Jose Sam tos Zelaya, president of Nicaragua, a peace congress has been held at Port
 Corinto, treaty adopted and a pro- clamation issued to the public. It is now
 confidently believed that insurrection will be promptly put down with an iron hand and that one republic will not be invaded by It's enemies from an- other. The frontiers Of the different re- publics will be closely guarded and all dangerous and idle characters will be kept under surveillance. Those present at the convention were Manuel Bonilla president of Honduras; P. Jose Escalon president of Salvador; President Zela- va of Nicaragua, and Maxine Soto Hall, representing President Manuel
 Estrada Calcua of Guatemala.
 South America without revolutions will perhaps seem tame, but peace is
 better than revolutions, even if it is less exciting. It. is ? good thing to
 have all the presidents on this contin- ent neace men.

ARnIrr THE KArrn1ns

Not in many years have I heard the katydids so clamorous as this year. I suppose it simply means that there are more katydids. The note of this in- sect is certainly not musical. and yet it has a charm Of it's own. Of fall night what more reposeful than those drowsy iterations of Katy didn't?'
