The Rape of the Lock.

He took the scissors and he clipped
A lock from out her hair,
And for excuse he said to her,

'"Thats true" said she, but, lest you

ought to say I bought it from
A hair store near the Rhine!''

Elements Are Transmitted
Into Other Elements

BY Professor GEORGE HOWARD DARWIN. SON Of CHARLIE Robert D.xin
7 is not my object nor am I competent TO examine the extent
to which the theory of natural selection has needed modfca-
- ton since it was first formulated by my father and Wallace.
The mystery Of life remains as impenetrable as ever.
The physicist, like the biologist and the. historian, watches the
effect Of slowly varying external conditions. He sees the quality Of
persistence or stability gradually decaying until it vanishes, when
there iensues what is called in politics a revolution. These considera-
tons lead me to doubt whether biologists have been correct in looking
for continuous. transformation of species. Judging by analogy, they
should rather expect to find slight, continuous changes occurring
during a long period, followed by a somewhat SUDDEN TRANS
into a new species or by rapid extinction.
Within the last few years electrical researches have shown that
the atom is not indivsble, and q food of light has been thrown
thereby on the ultimate constitution Of matter By various con-
vegent lines Of experiment it has been proved that the simplest Of
all atoms-that of hydrogen-consiss of about 500 separate parts.
while the number of parts in the atom Of the denser metals must be
counted by tens of thousands. These separate parts Of the atom have
been called corpusces or electrons and might be described g ps,6nlos
of negative electricity. ss .
Although the conception Of the decay Of an elementa and IL spon-
taneous transmutation into another element would have seemed ALSO
lutely repugnant to the chemist until recently, yet analogy. with
other moving systems seems to suggest that the ELEMENTS ARE
NOT ETERNAI.
Thomson conceived that an atom might be constructed after q
model he had devised-an electrical miniature planetary system which
was g triumph Of mathematical powerlthat he thought might be
made to Wn,for q million years, but 1t would not be eternal, Such q
conclusion is; an absolute contradiction to all that was known Of the
elements until recently, for no symptoms of decay were perceived,
and the elements existing in the solar system must already have
lasted for millions Of years. - @%.s

Why College Students
Are Football Crazy

By President ANGEL Il the university Of f1iehilan
T is in large part the passion OF THE@PEOPIEf for inter-
eshng games that stimulate the STUDENTS that play them.
When we read Of thirty or forty thousand persons wishing
to witness collegiate football games at Cambridge or New
York, and most Of them persons Of respectablity and intelligence and
maturity; when W e see that journals Of the highest character devote
a whole page to the report of a game and publish the portraits and
biographies Of the players as heroes Of whom readers must deare to
hear, may we not truthfuly say that THE PUBLIC is as crazy about
football as the students and that the passion Of the latter Is only
A Arr Of the national passion which has taken possession Of the
country2 #@98 Ss48S0fS @s6ae &&&S8f&
Let the public which criticses accept ITS just portion Of the blame.
in SO far as blame is pronounced. One might as well ask young men
in college not to share in the excitement of q presidential election,
or as reasonably ask college faculties to prevent them from doing so

in q tangle and that the cry of fraud
with the talk Of force Is heard in the
second presidential campaign held in
free Cuba. But the situation Is not so
alarming to outsiders as it seems to be
to some Of the amateur republicans
who are on the ground and involved in
the mixup.
1t would be strange If the party In
power in Cuba should be free from
shortcomings. The republic is young.
1t inherited bad models in governing
from the former government. Time
alone can cure the evils of party mis-
rule, and what a new republic needs
above all else is stability and order.
Parties are essential in a republic, and
only one al rule ut one time. Often
the party. out Of power, working active
~, but by quiet and peaceful meth
DDS, may advance national progress
more than the party in power. In time
the Cuban patriots will learn that wise
opposition makes for reform and that
revolution destroys good and bad alike.
