show that the amount Of fees received
for 1904 was slightly under that OF
1908, when the total was $4,000, but
this is explained by the fact that the

LIMIT OF MANS USEFULNESS

DR.. William Osler, professor at
John Hopkins university who ex-
poets to leave this country soon to
take over the duties of Regius Pro-
lessor of Medicine at Oxford uni
versity, startled number of peo-
pie recently by his statement that
a man begins to get useless at 40
years of age and is totally useless
at 60, and should then be chloro-
formed and put out of the way.
The professor is undoubtedly a
very learned man, one of his works,
Science and Immortality" having
reached a fifth edition inside of six
months, but history does not bear
out his statements. Cato, at 80
years of age, began to study the
Greek language, and mastered it.
Socrates, at an extreme old age,
learned to play exceedingly we'll on
several musical instruments. Plu-
tarch, when between 70 and 80,
began to learn Latin, and became
proficient in that language DR..
Johnson applied himself to the
Dutch language but few years
before his death and made remark
able progress. Ludovico Monald-
esco, at the great age of 115 years,
wrote the memoirs of his own times.
Ogilby, the translator of Homer
and Virgil, was unacquainted with
Latin or Greek till he was past So
Franklin did not begin his philo-
sophical studies till he had reached
his Both year Dryden in his 6Sth
year commenced the translation of
the Eneid, his most pleasing pro-
duction. Boccaccio was turned 80
years when he commenced his
studies of light literature, yet he
became one of the three great mas
tiers of the Tuscan dialect, Dante
and Petrarch being the other two.
Many similar cases might be cited,
as we all know by what is being
done by many men between 40 and
60 and, even beyond the latter age
in our own day.
We cannot believe that man is
useless after 60 years of age, history
disproves it. Providing a man
lives according to Natures laws
he is likely to be useful beyond
that age, and the mental powers
very often do not become infrm so
soon as the physical, and the mind
will keep active to the end, even in
cases of extreme old age. While it
is undoubtedly better to gain and
store knowledge in youth, still it is
wise to remember that it is never
too late to learn.

1t would not surprise me if some

San Diego Yacht club had a delightful
afternoon yesterday on the bay, the oc-
casion being the first regatta over the
| official course under the new racing rule.
The rules We're not fully understood and
there were some disqualifcations on that
account. In the twenty-five foot class
the West Wind, owned and sailed by
ID. II. Palmer was declared the winner.
The Ironda, which was sailed perfectly
by Herbert Bowles, would have won by
a large margin, going over the six-mile
course in nearly ten minutes less time
(corrected) than her nearest competitor
However, through a misunderstanding of
the rules she left the stakeboat at buoy
No. II on the Starboard instead of the
port side. The time of the competing
yachts was as follows:

line just 5S seconds ahead of the Idle
Hour. With both out of the race the
award was made to the FroIic, Capt

in this event was as follows:
