A New Precedent.

A new precedent in insanity cases
has been set by William H. Holmes of
Omaha. on trial for the embezzlement
of 500. Although insanity is his sole
defense. no alienists have been called,
no one has testified to hereditary
taints, and no mention has been made
of brainstorm or exaggerated ego. The
witnesses have all been ordinary citi-
zens who have met him in everyday
life. Sam Hoff, eX.sheriff and member
Of the Legislature. testifies that he be.
lieves Holmes insane, because he
wants bath every day and is scrupu-
lous about his dress. George Stryker,
another ex-sheriff. says that Holmes
would have "a roaring toothache eve
nings, but would be all right morn
ings," which, coupled with the fact
that he turned out his gas in Jail at
p. m. and went to sleep. though the
rules allowed him TO have 1t going till
3, proved madness concluslvely. The
only departure from the homemade
brand Of evidence was when Holmes
attorney argued that, as all the mas.
tiers Of music. art, literature and poll
tics had been more or less crazy.
Holmes must undoubtedly be so. One
telling argument was adduced-the
prisoner ate breakfast foods! How
ever, remarks the New York Post, no
one thought to point out the most
conclusive proof of all, namely, that.
II he had not been insane, Holmes
never would have embezzled merely
$500.

UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO.
Annual Catalogue Shows Large In
crease in Attendance.

Boulder.-The 1908 catalogue OF the
Colorado university was issued Tues
day. 1t shows total attendance for
the college year of 96l regularly matrl-
culated students, an increase OF III
over that of last year, while the total
attendance, counting the summer
school students. was 1,044. The teach
ing staff consists of 12l professors and
instructors. During the past year Two
new buildings have been added to the
equipment Of the university. The new
shop building, which was opened to
the students last Monday, gives Colo
RADIO university the best shops be-
tween Chicago and the Pacific coast.
The other building is the home for hos
pital nurses.
Three thousand volumes have been
added to the library since last year,
there being at present $4,000 bound vol
umes, besides several thousand un.
bound pamphlets, the largest college
library in the West.
The university comprises four col
leges. the graduate school, and the
schools of law and medicine. in addi-
tion to the summer school. The col
lege of liberal arts, the oldest depart
ment of the university, gives all the
regular collegiate studies, there being
eighteen distinct branches, and offer
ing total of $3.50 subjects.
BY system of doubling, the medical
course and the college work both can
be completed in six years, two years
credit being given for the first two
years in the medical school. This will
be made compulsory in the fall of 1909,
after which no student can enter the
medical school without two years pre-
paratory work in college work.
Requirements for admission have
been lowered one unit since last year,
fifteen units being all that will be re-
quired in the future. A unit is a course
of study weeks for five days week,
with a forty-covering the school year
of thirty.siX five.minute period. All
students from accredited high schools
presenting these units are admitted
without examination. There are forty
nine such high schools at present.
From the announcement in the cata-
logue the regents have taken their
first step toward placing commence
ment week further in June by having
school open on September 14th, or a
week later than this year. This will
give better weather in June for the
class day exercises.

The Man We Envy.

In one of his plays, Bernard Shaw
remarks that the man with the tooth.
ache thinks everyone happy whose
teeth are sound. and the poverty.
stricken man makes. the same mistake
about the rich man" so It is with
most things. One always feels that
the thing one does not possess. or the
thing one cannot do, is the one thing
essential 10 happiness. The unsuc.
cessful think the successful must be
happy The invalids think IL they had
health nothing else would matter The
laboring man thinks II he only had
leisure he would be content But, for
tunately. happiness is not the preroga-
tive OF any class OF people or station
in life. No doubt some are gifted with
happier and more cheerful tempera.
ment than others. says the New YORK
Weekly. but ones point of view Is
really largely n matter OF habit. and
the thing to do is TO try and get Into
a habit OF letting ones thoughts dwell
on the pleasant things OF life as much
as possible and forget its worries as
soon as may be.
