HARVlARD'S PRODIGY
BREAKS DOWN, AGE H..
Boy Wonder of University Suffers
From Nervous Prostitution.

Boston. Feb. William James ST.
dis, the 11-year-old boy prodigy at
Harvard University, whose erudition
puzzled and wo nthe amazed admiral
ton of the learned men at the col
Iege, is Frustrated at his home in
Brooklyn, and is under the constant
care OF his father, DR.. Boris Sidis, and
another physician.
While the boy has broken down in
health and may not be able for many
months to continue his studies at
Harvard, it is declared his mental fac
ulties are as keen and vigorous as ev-
err, and in fact he discusses his trou-
Bile with an understanding that fairly
startles the visiting doctor.
Young Sidis has been i'll since the
week in which he lectured to the Har-
ward faculty on his theory for prov
ing the fourth dimension. The boy s
work in preparing an improved Greek
and Latin grammar, after class hours,
it is said. may have had something to
do with his breakdown.

WATCH FOR GROUND
HOGS SHADOW TODAY
If lie Sees 1t Gold Wealth
6r is Ahead.

The burning question of to-day is
whether the ground hog will see his
shadow on the day on which
this tabled prognosticator of the seas
on is supposed to betake himself from
mis- warm winter bed and come out in
to the upper air for the specific pur-
pose of seeing if his shadow is there
with him or not. Strange by the way,
that no one has suggested that the
ground hog may be an Incorporate
iggy-subject to seem things you
know-thereby making him a very du-
bious prophet of weather conditions.
Every one knows the legend as it IS
connected with February second, that
if the ground hog comes out Of his
winters bed and the sun is shining
he becomes frightened at his shadow
and beats it back to his winter quar-
ters until six weeks later, during
which time there will be cold wealth
er. If it's cloudy, however, piggy
doesn't see his shadow, consequently
he doesn't go back into his warm
bed; ergo, there will be no more cold
weather That's about the gfst of the
legendary reasoning on the matter.
More definite, however. is the his
tory Of the Candelmas. a holiday as
observed in the Roman Catholic and
Anglican churches. which also falls

Columbus, Ga, Feb. LIN AN able
sermon at st. Luke church, Dr. Bas-
com Anthony, the pastor, paid his re-
