Cfyilizing the world.
Poison, as u sfagle word Of the
English language, carries with 1t more
instructive warning and repugnance
than invest any other word in the
glossary Of English speech. Whether
spoken or written the word at once
challenges the attention and the imag
nation to horror of evil There are
only three poisonous serpents in the
geography of North America, yet be-
cause of these three varieties alone
the whole reptilian family is condemn
ed to death at sight
+ And yet, strangely anomalous as it
may appear, the existence Of active
poisons in the animal, vegetable and
mineral kingdoms Of nature has done
more for the development of modern
civilized man than have all the other
innocuous elemental things which abo-
riginal man found to his hand. These
active poisons were mans first slim
ulus to thought. Even in the fgura-
i've Eden there was one fruit of which
| man might not eat sWhy not?' was
his first question, and the only rational
answer was for him to eat and see.
| Waving aside this literal Eden as
apochryphal and metaphorical, the
aboriginal man was confronted by the
same literal condition as to the things
which he should not eat or touch or
i smell. Ills environment was that of
the torrid zone. Nakedness was his
condition. Exposure to the venoms
and animal. plant and mineral life was
a consequence against which only a
quickened intelligence could insure i'm
munity. The fruit Of one plant he dis
covered to be life; the touch of another
was death. He could avoid the giant
carnivora of the jungle which would
have searched him out with tooth and
claw, but he had little resource against
the creeping. crawling things whose
kangs and stings meant c6nvulsive suf
fering, horrors and death to his kind
He knew the sweet waters of the hills
1 but must learn to guard against the
brackish, excoriating waters of the des
erts. "Why" because in this mannel
his first voiceless question and the
stimulus OF the Interrogation were thu
making of the civilized man.-Tech

Chicago Police After Man Who Starts
Bank RumorS

CHICAGO, February 23.-Playing upon
the unfounded suspicion that has arisen in
the mind of the average citizen concerning
banking methods, as result Of the col
lapse of the Bank of America, a malicious
person has spent the last few days in at
tempting to start rumors concerning the
solvency of several Chicago banks.
The man has concealed his identity by the
use Of the telephone, over which he has
sent to customers of at least four of the
larger institutions warnings to withdraw
their funds, declaring they are unsafe. In
the case of one bank a dozen patrons
came hurryiug to the officials to inquire as
to it's financial soundness.
Although many of them went away sat
sfied some few transferred their accounts,
and the worry and trouble caused to the
others has been sufficient to arouse in
dignation among the bank officials.
The nuisance has been occasioned at
times when the public temper was unset
tied, but such frequency in the operations
of the trouble-makers have been noticed
during the last week has not occurred be-
fore -Four trust companies have suffered
from his work.
The police have been consulted by one
bank and another has put its detectives to
work trying TO trace him down. Another
declared that II would be willing to give
a reward Of SO, 900 if he were sent to the
penitentiary, and suggested that action
should be taken in the matter by the clear
ing house committee.

During the night Haygood was surprised
while attempting to rob the boarding house
kept by Mr. and Mrs. L. f. Coons. In his
effort to escape the negro slashed Coons
about the face, neck and arms with a
knife, and cut several gashes in Mrs. Coons

paper carrier whom he evidently mistook
for policeman. Brewers throat was so
badly cut that he cannot talk. Mrs. Coons

BRITISH NAVAL MANEUVERS
Admiralty Hope to Have Merchant
Marine Cooperation

LONDON, February 23.-At the annual
meeting today of the chamber of shipping
Of the united Kingdom President Ward
said he had seen Admiral Sir John Fisher
relative TO the planned co-operatio of the
mercantile marine with the navy during
the naval maneuvers this summer. The
admiralty hoped to have 300 to 400 mer-
chant ships under control of the admiral
commanding the maneuvers and TO be able
to show that 1t could protect shipping N
war time. having besides enough vessels
free to take care of the enemy.
Admiral Fisher believed that the result
of the experiment would be to prevent any
thing in the nature of u scare among ship
owners in war time thus preventing a
panic in insurance premiums The ad-
miralty, President Ward added. would in
demnify ship owners for loss due TO delay
and would pay the cost of coal.

clared. For years the Chinese have been
been subjected to every possible lndignity
by officials. 1t has been scanda aosis.
Theodore Roosevelt recognizes It, and has
issue instructions which ought TO bring
about some Improvement. The boycott Is
useless. We have seen in this country how
little power there Is in 1t. A man Will buy
where he wishes.
After the indignities which China has
received a our hands we have no reason
to expect her to buy our goods. But for
all that, the Chinese are not likely In my
opinion. to cause an uprising. They would
not dare make an attack upon the dfpio-
matte service, and the only danger would
be inland. The Americans near the coast
and in the largest cities are safe enough.
Further inland no military forces can be
brought to bear in time to avert threat
ened bloodshed"

a section of the insurance report was de-

The critics of industrial insurance have
alleged that the poor are robbed by eXorhi-
