CHEER UP! YOUR CHILD
Is NOT A WEE SAVAGE

CHICAGO. Sept. 2S. = Parents
should cheer up. Their young hope
full is not little savage. At least
this is the inference after reading
what Prof. william |. Thomas of
the University Of Chicago says In a
discussion OF means OF interpreting
savage society In the current num-
Der OF the American Journal OF Soci-
ology issued today.
The ideas OF educators regarding
J the similarity OF the child mind
and that Of the savage Prof. Thomas
attacks without reservation.
II has been the custom of the
schools OF Chicago and elsewhere to
have children study the most print
tive methods OF making things and
to manufacture fish nets and other
implements Of savage life under the
impression that their minds were
better adapted to this work than to
construction OF more civilized arti-
cles. According to Prof. Thomas
they would be better employed max
Ing electric dynamos or other arti-
cles that can be used In the twen-
tieth century.
I'VE have every reason to think. "
says Prof. Thomas in this connGc.
ton. that the mind OF the savage
and the mind OF the civilized are
fundamentally alike. There are Or
ganic changes In the brain of the
growing child, but these are the
same in the children OF all races.
! The savage Is not modern child,
but one whose consciousness Is not
Influenced by the copies set by civil
ization. And the able child Is not a
savage. but one whose mind Is not
yet fully dominated by the white
type OF culture. And, incidentally,
there never was more inept COM
parison than that of the child with
the savage, for the savage Is a per-
son OF definitely fixed and specialized
aims and habits. while the child, as
Prof. Dewey has expressed It, is
primarily one whose calling il
growth, and who is consequently
characterized by flexible and un-
specialized habits"

DEWEY DEFENDS
AMERICAN navy
Objects to Declaration That Our
Fleet Il DULY a Big Blur =
Thinks We Could Easily Buy
Supply Ships Needed.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 7.-Defend-
ing with characteristic vigor the
American navy, Admiral Dewey to-
day asserted that not only is our
navy not a bluff" but that he is
confident that It would give a good
account Of itself should war ever
come.
The Admiral's remarks were call
ed forth by a statement attributed
to Former Representative Lands OF
Indiana, who, in recent speech at
Cincinnati, Ohio, on advocating snip
subsidies, Is reported to have SAID
that those Americans who are In
formed considered our navy blum"
Declaring that he, saw no war
clouds gathering on the horizon, Ad-
miral Dewey discussed several phas-
es Of the navy. He expressed him
self as heartily in favor Of ship sub
sidy legislation and made strong
plea for the continued upbuilding
Of the navy. Referring to the re-
mary attributed to Lands. Admiral
Dewey said OF course what Mr.. Lam
dis meant was that the navy would
be comparatively useless in time OF
war without necessary auxiliaries
drawn from the merchant marine.
He" continued Admiral Dewey,
wants a subsidy for our ships Of
commerce, and no do l."
The Admiral expressed the belief
that ship subsidy Legislation could
be secured were II not for the use
of the word subsidy" which, he
said, many people did not like be-
cause they thought It meant to give
something for nothing.
But the American navy is not
quite so helpless as one might i'm
agine from Mr.. lands remarks,
said the Admiral. I'VE have fifteen
GOLFERS and several transports al
ready In the service. or course,
these would not be enough in case
OF war. and l hope that we will con.
tinue to add to that number. II
we were to have war we could
purchase as many ships as we might
need. We did 30 In the Spanish
war. 1t would. Of course, be great
deal better II we had them already
The Admiral declared that the
United States needed merchant ma.
rine not only for the value 1t might
possess as furnishing auxiliaries to
the navy, but to carry the American
flag to the markets Of the world.
But" he said, there will be nc
war. And so long as we go ahead
steadily and moderately In adding tc
our navy. replacing the older ships
with the most modern type. thus
keeping our navy abreast Of 1hs
world, no one will ever be able tC
say, like Mr.. Lands. that other ma.
tions do not regard the American
navy seriously"

YOUNG MAN Maybe
AS RESULT OF FALL

Lima, Ohio, November 19-W. Prick
son of the late millionaire Wooster bank
er, Jacob Frick, and nephew of H. Clay
Prick the steel magnate, lies dying at
a hospital here as the result of a scuf-
file last evening in the apartments of an
unknown woman giving her name as
Florence Adams of Toledo.
Miss Adams declared she and Prick
We're wrestling over a photograph on the
building when both pressed against the
window frames which gave way, pre-
cipitating them to the pavement.
Frick was given a farm by his late
father a few years ago and has resided
near Bellefontane.
Miss Adams later modified the wrestling
story. Her aunt, Mrs Mollie Foster,
said to live on Euclid avenue, Cleve-
land, said that she and Miss Adams
were old schoolmates of Prick and he
invited them to his apartments yester-
day when he met them on the street
Miss Adams told a reporter this aft
ernon that the fall through the win
dow resulted during a friendly scuffle
over photograph and that no beer was
served.
She said that she came to meet Prick
by appointment.
Tricks brother and sister, who are
here, do not accept the name given by
the young woman as the true one. They
asserted that Prick had $1,000 in his pos
session when he left home Both of his
legs will have to be amputated.

MAGNETIC SURVEY
Is INVALUABLE

Washington, November 19.-The first
results Of the magnetic survey of the At
lantic ocean now being made by the Car
negie institute Of Washington on the nom
magnetic yacht Carnegie. which will be of
invaluable assistance to navigation, have
been registered in the Institutes depart
ment Of terrestrial magnetism.
These first results prove that when
complete survey has been made the mas
ters of transatlantic liners will be able
to clip some time off their schedules by
following the revised charts of the mag
netic survey. BY doing so. they will es-
cape the fitful changes of the compass,
and their regular variations of the earth 8
magnetism which have been hitherto un-
recorded.
AS fast as the corrections made by the
Carnegie institute are secured they are
furnished to the photographic officers of

The Taking of Testimony.

Gregory L. Smith, attorney for the
Louisville and Nashville railroad, acting
for the railroads which are fighting the
state rates, has asked Attorney General
A. M. CARRIER to agree with him on a day
to begin taking testimony in the trial
made since June of the state rates, both
freight and passenger; also covering the
entire scope of the rate litigation between
the state and the several lines that have
been resisting. Colonel CARRIER will have
a look into conditions and come to an
understanding in short time. 1t is now
likely that the investigation will begin
not later than December l.
This will be apart from the applica-
ton for renewal of the injunctions, made
before Thomas G. Jones. 1t Is argued
that the business done from the time the
courts forced the rates in has been with
out profit and II is urged that an in
junction now be issued revoking the or
der putting the rates into effect, and
the old charges restored. On the carri-
ages at the time the rates were In the
testimony will bear, as well as on the con-
tentions prior to that time. The referees,
Judge w. s. Thorington and Col. W. A.
Gunter, have had their Offices ready for
service for some days. They can begin
taking evidence at once.

Investigation of Results of Reduced

Is Coming.

Montgomery, November 19.-(Special.)-
As forecasted in The Age-Herald on
Thursday morning, the Louisville and
Nashville railroad and the South and
North Railroad of Alabama today filed
petitions in the United States court for
the Fifth circuit praying that the state
rate acts, both passenger and freight,
now in force by order of the United
States circuit court of appeals be re-
strained. The plea is that neither is re-
munerative, and to longer enforce them
| is TO demand service without adequate
returns
The papers were filed by ]. Manley Fos-
ter, assistant district attorney of the
Louisville and Nashville road at this
point District Attorney George w. Jones
being absent because of the illness of his
| wife in Louisville. Copies were sent by
mail TO Judge Thomas G. Jones, presid-
ing judge who is holding court in Biz
mingham He is asked to prevent the
further enforcement of the acts and to
set a day for hearing as to whether or
not a permanent injunction will issue.
1t is anticipated here that Judge Jones
will pass upon the application and either
grant the prayer temporarily or refuse
1t by tomorrow.
The laws passed by the legislature of
January, 1907, were enjoined by an order
of the United States court at this point
on March 30 of that year. An extra ses-
sion of the body, held in November. I'M
dertook to prevent the results of the
injunction by taking away the rights of
the state officers to act for the state, or.
as a consequence, be enjoined by the
state; also by laying penalties for viola
lions that would have bankrupted any
line to have paid them for one day. But
the plan did not work, and on December
2 and 81 of the same year a blanket in
junction was issued covering every pos
sible way of escape and the rates were
again tied up.
These held good until April 5, 1909, when
the United States court of appeals, sitting
at New Orleans reversed Judge Thomas
G. Jones to the extent of holding that the
rates should be given a trial. which trial
began in June last, the rail lines putting
in the two and a half cent passenger
fares and the state charges on 10 COM
modities of freight haul. All of these
are now said to be too low rendering it
impossible to earn a profit, and it Is
prayed that the roads be no longer
forced to do work for which they are
not adequately paid.
H. C. Selheimer one of the state coun-
SELL who was here today to consult with
Attorney General CARRIER about these and
other cases, was surprised at the action
taken He did not believe that such a
move would be made at this time, and is
also of the opinion that in the face of the
action of the circuit court of appeals
Judge Jones will be very slow to hold up
the laws again. On the other hand, 1t
Is argued that the laws are such as to
cause great loss to the roads, and, hav-
ing given them a trial for six months
1t Is not right to force them upon the
companies any longer.

BLUES WIN AT
ATHLETIC CLUB

At the Athletic club last night the
second game in the color series proved a
thriller. The victory for the Blues was
only the result after two halves of hard
playing and some sensational work. At
the whistle the score stood q to in
favor of the Blues.
Bartlett at forward was the sensation

tiful goals and making IL points The
team showed the good results Of Henry
ChairselPs coaching.
Captain Jones of the Blues now has the
Whites and Blacks between him and the
championship, and he expects to trim
the Blacks next week. There was good
crowd in attendance last night, and the
players exhibited fine spirit.

made the evening quite successful as a
social event. Here is the final score of

developed wherever it can be found, and
in this lies danger to our water sources
which has not heretofore existed. The.
lumbermen Of the future, making use OF
electrical energy, will carry on operations
where it has been considered impossible
to do so in the past and, Harvesting the
waters Of q stream, will make it contrib
ute to its own injury. Until within the
last five or six years, water power has
been ct 8 discount for . long time.
The installing Of steam power in small
units created prejudice toward water as
a medium OF power except on very large
streams and the gradual decrease in the
dow OF small streams, while 1t was noted,
simply caused comment. Now the ad-
vent Of electricity has awakened the ma
ton to the fact that We have, been wltul-
ly destroying q valuable asset. The in
vestigations OF the bureau of agriculture
show that both the northern and south
eFn ranges OF the Appalachian mountains
are rapidly advancing towards a condi-
ton of barrenness. In the uplands to the
south of Pennsylvania fully 100 square
miles of arabic and forest land are lost TO
the countFy every year BY the denudation
OF the forests and the consequentfwashing
away Of the soil.
HRaiIroad men tell as that any reduc-
tion in the cost OF rail transportation in
the future Is improbable; that the service
OF American railroads may be expected to
develop more and more with reference 10
handling commodities expeditiously and
In small units, and that the development
OF cur internal waterways will follow.
This has been the experience OF countries
many centuries older than ours, and We
have no reason to think that our own ex-
perience will differ materially from
theirs. Expert engineers estimate that
$500, 600, 600 expended in the develop
ment OF our internal waterways would re-
suit in a saving OF 5000, 600, 600 annually
in freight rates, which, II true, would be
very good investment for the govern
ment and the people.
"The conservation Of our water re-
sources would have a powerful influence
upon the system of irrigation which the
government is carrying on at an expendi-
ture of millions OF dollars. Does 1t not
seem somew hat inconsistent to have the
government expend millions to reclaim
arid lands in the West, while the people,
because OF the avarice OF capital, are allow
ing thousands of acres Of richs tillaole
soil to be laid waste in the East ?"
