condensed still further? For instance,
wouldn't 1T. r." express the whole

in two recent letters to the Sun,
DIR. Austin Flint has impaired two
pieces of interesting information.
Apropos of certain attendants OF the
Manhattan State Hospital who have
been committed to prison, pending in
veStigation as to their responsibility
for the recent death of an insane per-
son, DR.. Flint points out that they are
entitled to suspension of judgment
on the part of the public. For il is
we'll known to alienists, he says, that
the chronic insane. especially those of
advanced age, are subject to discolora-
tions of the skin, without violence
that simulate severe bruises. And
they also not infrequently develop
bone degeneration of the insane" es-
pecially in the ribs, which leads to
fractures from very slight causes in
no wise connected with violence 1t
does not necessarily follow, therefore.
says Harper's Weekly. that insane per-
sons who are found with their ribs
broken and skins discolored have been
unduly knocked about, and an unscru-
pulous lunatic whose bones and skin
have degenerated can get the worthiest
attendants into undeserved trouble
This point is worth knowing, DR..
Flints second disclosure is that left
handedness is an abnormality, and is
often associated with defective moral
sense. Six per cent. of us are left
handed, and S1.6 per cent of the left
handed are criminals. That. at least.
seems the reasonable inference from
DR.. Fiint's statement that 1854 per
cent. Of the left-handed are not to be
classed as criminals" DR.. Flint tells
us that out of every hundred criminals
19 are left-handed. and that out Of ev-
cry hundred incendiaries Is are left
handed.

AN ASTOUNDING DISCOVERY

The State Journal and it's evening
edition, The News, deserve the. plaud-
Its OF Nebraska for making public one
OF the most astounding discoveries of
the age.
These journalistic "Old Sleuths'
have actually found out and published
the most astonishing fact that the
Burlington railroad system in Me-
braska Is. for taxation purposes, di-
vided up into some fifteen to seven
teen different parts, each retaining its
original name; and that the net re-
suit OF such practice is to make the
Burlington's taxes much lighter than
they would probably be il the road
were taxed as unit.
Readers OF The Independent viii
probably experience a touch of that
tired feeling" to be told this old. old
story; but they should be patient. The
Journal and News have clientele OF
"mullet head readers who could not
be hired to read The Independent or
any other reform paper And now.
after many years OF silence, II Is a SUBJ
ject for congratulation that the jour-
nal and News will allow their readers
this modicum Of information. even IL

In touch with matters Of state governs
ment.

god, is totally erroneous" OF scien-
lists he says: "None accept the God
hypothesis and reason from it; Tor
that would upset all science Many
of his other assertions are of the broad
socialistic character. THE scholars OF
the world from time immemorial, the
scientists, artists, literary men, bust
ness men and statesmen of the world
have held the God and Immortality
hypothesis only as matter Of pol
ICY" All that is pure MARKHAM social
ism.
The Independent must insist that
this effort to make socialist god and
create a socialist religion, notwith-
standing the learning exhibited, is a
dismal failure Every man who at
tempts to evolve a religion from OAR
winism must meet with just such a
failure as those who have attempted
to build scientific theories upon the
Bible. Mind determines the destin-
les of men to a much greater degree
than does economic determinism and
man is incurably religious. Let phil
osophies be built upon these truths.

 Durrett again played a great game besides his three opportune hits he had six putouts and one assist without an error-his assist being a throw from left field to first base, completing a double play. Demont also played star ball, accepting nine chances without an error. while his trapping of a fly ball that fell just outside of the in- field was clever piece of work. The score was:

If ever a man had a great big kick coming at the harsh dealing of an unkind fate Jack Lee was that 1n- dividual yesterday afternoon. After pitching great baseball and receiving support that was at times brilliant his welf-earned victory was in the twink ling of an eye dashed out of his hands after the game was almost over.
 With the handicap of two runs against them to start on the Pretzels made an unhill fight, tied the score in the sixth and had a couple of runs to the good in the seventh. In the first inning Winters got base on balls, advanced on Crozier's sacrifice, went to third when Bush booted Stafford's hit both scoring on Krug's two-bagger.
 After this Lee had them shutout up to that fatal ninth. only one hit being made in that inning, three errors doing the work.
 It was not until the fourth inning that the locals broke into the tally column. Schwartzs two bagger and Durrett's .line single scoring the first run. In the sixth Schwartz hit to Krug who made "a wild throw to Staff ford. Schwartz getting to third and scoring on Durrett's hit again.
