GOV. DevlHE's OPINION.

Gov. Devine to one ofhis home papers

ting his first glimpse OF lawmaking.
asks for bills to be introduced, which
more mature experience would cause
him TO shun AS he would small pox
He feels the weight Of the state upon
hun, and generally speaking takes
himself to seriously This unfortunate
tendency on the part OF new members
to introduce bills of allkindS and sorts
Is menace, and the state is already

inexperienced lawmaking. Today
the present legislature could make n
great reputation not by the many, but
by the few laws that II created
ITO the visitor acquainted with past
legislative bodies and the men who
composed them, there is a decided
lack Of the interesting and dramatic
|side OF legislation, and somehow as
one sits back and watches the prosaic
Legislative grind OF the house, there
comes sort OF wistful longing for
the old-time red hot debate and the
good oratory for which the house has
always been noted, and he sghs
for the presence Of a long list of names

hall ring and ring again With their
bursts Of eloQuence.

HOT WEATHER CRIMES.

Hot weather misdeanors always
swell the list of crimes above the nor
NAL OF the years average-and this
season seems to be furnishing some
what more than the usual heated
seasons quota of bad things doing.
The New York Times epitomizes a
days grist OF sensational news, which
makes startling showing.
An ex-convict Journeys to Middle
town to die by his own hand. after
finding and shooting down a juryman
who helped declare him guilty years
ago. A woman in the corridor Of a
New York hosteIry aims a bullet at the
heart Of man who scorned her A
Jealous husband In wilkesbarre slays
the man who, he says, had hypnotized
his WIFE A man in Scranton, afflicted
with insomnia, hurls a stone with fatal
effect at a woman whom he mistakes
for a ghost An italian feud flames
up on the east side, where the stiletto
and the pistol are used with bloody eff
feet. In Reading six babies die under
the incantations of witch doctors"
In New York women are waylaid and
robbed in the streets.
The columns of the newspapers are
replete daily with accounts of murders.
suicides and assaults. With the advent
of cooler weather these symptoms of
fever in the peoples veins will disap-
pear. Violent crimes of all kinds are
twice as frequent when the weather is
hot DR.. Forbes winslow says. The
season when the suicidal and homicidal
mania reaches it's climax of fatalities is
now passing. There is a taint in the
blood or in the brain of the persons
who become its victims. They may live
irreproachably during normal condi-
tions Of the weather-but somewhere
in their minds is nursed the spark of
malevolence that needs only the in
fiuence Of hot and humid climate to
make 1t burst forth into violence. A
history of work under pressure, of emo
tional excesses, alcoholism, and nervous
degeneracy-is revealed in these cases
of crimes of the hot weather.

CORN CROP.

North Dakota has raised more corn
than usual The hot weather which
did some damage to the wheat-wa
ideal for the corn and the condition Of
the soil has caused the crop to grow
In the best possible manner. In form
er years q trip over the state showed a
few small fields Of corn here and there.
This has given away to great bodies of
that cereal, in some cases entire sec
tions of land being devoted to the crop.
Those who have been sufficiently en-
terprising to stick to it are now re-
ceiving their reward.
Many OF the better formers insist
that corn cleans the land and leaves
It in better condition for the next
crop than summer fallow. 1t yields a
revenue that more than pays the ex-
penses of it's cultivation and It also
becomes a source of profit to the
grower.

TRAINING FOR JOURNALISM.

The occasion Of the completion of
the first term Of the University of
Missouri school of Journalism has been
made topic for comment as to the
actual value of such school-and the
relative merits of so-called academic
Journalism. The facuaty of the univer-
sity expressed great enthusiasm for the
future of the school. Such endorse
ment cannot be taken without due re-
gard for the source whence 1t comes.
Practical newspaper men are not like
ly to be in accord with the university
faculty on this point.
A conservative view is expressed by
The Atlanta Constitution-which re-
marks that while theoretically the aims
Of these institutions are excellent and
appear easily attainable to the news
paper novice-experience may reveal a
different story. 1t is claimed that sea
soned editors and reporters and man
agerial officials and special writer's are
likely to remain skeptical as to the
capacity of the man who has learned
the vocation out of books-regardless
of the thoroughness and catholicitv or
the course. The Constitution suggests
further that few of the things neces-
sary to an able newspaperman can be
taught in the school room, as they
must be attained-if at abby gruel-
ling experience. It is the conclusion
OF the southern contemporary that
journalism-as the term is understood
by its actual exponents- lis one of the
last professions to be easily impaired
In q purely academic environment.
This last statement is true enough,
taken literally-but it hardly justifles
the assumption that the school Of
Journalism cannot help the prospective
journalist Newspapermaking is q pro-

SCIENCES ADVANCE.

Diseases are being conquered one by
one. Gradually the doctors are digging
away the foundations of plaques and
epidemics, and, incidentally, the basis
of their own profession. For years
typhoid fever has been one of the most
dreaded of diseases. A few years ago
it was visitation of God, then 1t be-
came known that it was a disease caus-
ed by a certain germ-and now it is
believed that way has been found to

the subject immune to its infection.
Three men at Omaha.-soldiers of the
common good, and real heroes-sub-
mitted to the experiments. They risk

in some glorious" charge in which
the heat Of battle makes bravery easy.
Last June these men Sergeant Fuller

AIRY man this would have been certain

found that with the effects Of the SER
