PHOTOGRAPHS.

Since the impossible has surrender |
ed one stronghold after another, and
men are looking through planks and
talking seriously of photographing
each others thoughts, it is not
strange that scientific men should
have succeeded in penetrating the
inky depths of the sea with magic
glasses.
This amazing feat has been recent
ly accomplished by Cavaliere Pine,
an italian engineer. Signor Pine
calls his instrument the MICROSCOPE.
To outward appearance it is a long
tube, fitted with glasses and electri-
cal apparatus. He combines a clever
optical device with an improved
lamp, which enables him to peer into
the ocean depths and take an accu-
rate photograph of the seas bottom
at any point.
Objects that have lain buried for
thousands of years have been brought
to the surface with the aid of Pino's
MICROSCOPE. Among them are sev-
eral art treasures of great value, in
Guiding the head of a Greek statue
belonging to a remote epoch.
It is believed that the MICROSCOPE
Will prove a very profitable instru-
ment. Already Signor Pine has en-
| 4ornJ into 81 oSnfraaf with tho HrnnH
government to recover all the sunken
treasure of every sort that he can
find on the coast of Greece. The con-
tract fixes his compensation at an
enormous sum.
The MICROSCOPE has large possibili.
ties, if current accounts be true. Not
only may it reveal sunken gold
which has slumbered beneath the
brine since the days of Solomon, but
it may be used to probe the Watery
depths of certain great American
trusts, which defy the scrutiny of I'm.
aided mortal vision.
What might not be revealed, fol
instance, could the microscope be
pointed at the profound bilgewatel
of the Shipyard Trust? Or the vas,
liquid abyss of the Steel Corporation:
Even the opaque mass of the decayed
Asphalt Trust, and the green muck
of Amalgamated Copper, would be
penetrated by the keen eye of the
;fhydroscope, and mysteries unthink'
able would be straightway revealed.
With a slightly different lens, the
dark stain of the postal service, with
it's stshapes that crawl' and its
"forms that creep" would be made
plain as if flooded with daylight.
Let us send for Signor Pho and
his MICROSCOPE.

IS DRUNKENNESS CRIME OR
DISEASE?
Is the drunkard a criminal?

Is the drunkard q crlm1nal!
This is an interesting question
which has been brought up by the
New York state commission of pris-
Ons in its annual report. The COM
mission reports some startling fig
ures: out of 100, 581 commitments
for the year just closed, 9,519 of the
persons committed were to Jails and
3,615 to the penitentiary for the
single Offense of drunkenness. On
these figures the commission bases
some very pertinent remarks and
recommends that the law should de-
wise some other means for dealing
with inebriates.
The commission argues that there
is no element Of malice in the offense
of drunkenness, that habitual drunk
enness results from mental weakness
and that the treatment should be
similar to other cases of alteration.
There is a difference between the
man who cannot control his appe-
lite, argues the commission, and the
man who wilfully and m%aliciously
commits an offense against the per-
son or property of another. The
law should recognize the distinction,
thinks the commission, and it so rec
Ommends.
The question which is thus raised
is an interesting one, interesting not
only in New York but everywhere,
for drunkenness, whether a crime OF
a disease is a problem with which
every state and every city has tc
deal. There is something to be said
on both sides of the question. On the
one hand it is argued that the prac'
tice of sending the drunkard to jail,
where he is confined and must asso.
ciate with those who have wilfully
and maliciously sinned against the
law and their fellow man, depraves
the drunkard, brands him as a Grim.
inal, takes away his self respect and
causes his family to suffer as a result
of his inability to provide a living,
Those who view drunkenness as q
crime in that it is a self-indulgence
fear that to treat the offender toe
kindly would reduce his sense of re.
sponsibility.
The suggestion has been made that
the prisoners who are committed fol
drunkenness be separated from the
other prisoners, just as, in New York
and perhaps other states, the youth
full prisoners are separated from the
hardened criminals to avoid contain
ination.
The statement and recommends
tions of the New York commission
seem worthy of consideration. Ger
tainly it would seem that a first of:
fender or even a man who falls by
the way side occasionally, who,
when sober, is Woodworking and
provident, minding his own business
and caring for his family, ought not
to be treated as a criminal. Yet tC
condone his offense may encourage
its repetition.
It is a problem which time anC
study may partially solve, but the
menace of drunkenness to the com
munity and the family, to morality
and civilization, whether it be called
crime or whether it be diagnosed
disease, will remain as long as mar
is mortal, appetites strong and whis
key within reach.

and performed by DR.. Eberle G. Welch,
OF the Maryland University, OF this
city, has unlocked the jaws OF six-year-

years has been so tightly locked that
she has been kept alive by liquid food

DR. Welch decided on a new operation. b
The right Jaw bone was laid open and
about an inch OF the bone at the con-
junction OF the jaw and temporal bones
was chiseled away
Next day the child could work her
jaws without pain. Tomorrow she Will
be discharged from the hospital as
cured. She can masticate solids and Is
