"GRAND OLD WOMAN is DEAD

Miss Spence of Australia Was a
Friend of Children of Her Country.
When Miss Catherine Helen Spence.
the grand old woman of Australia"
died not long ago the children of her
country lost one of their best friends
1t was Miss Spence who, in commune
ton with Miss Emily Clark, initiated
the Australian system for the care of
dependent and delinquent children, a
system which is the envy of social
workers in more than one other coun-
try. Old as she was, according to the
New York Tribune, she filled I'D to
the time of her death a seat ON the
state chill lren's council and also on
the destitute board of South Austria
liza. But Miss Spence was never really
old, though she had lived 50 years
when she died. She took the warmest
interest in all that her friends were
doing. She mothered and brought up
one after another three families OF
children. Her public work was many
sided. The English colony in South
Australia, to which, as a young girl,
Miss Spence went from Scotland, was
not at all like the colonies founded
later by gold seekers. 1t was colony
established by idealists, with dreams
of just laws and pure electoral con-
ditions. Miss Spence took all this in
at the impressionable age and all her
life she preached and worked for the
voice of the people in government. In
1893 Miss Spence Travelled in America.

Recently at the Tokyo appeal court,
before Judge Miyamoto, a farmer
named Gisei Haseba, 26 years old, con
victed of numbering his parents-in-law
and severely injuring his wife at Osa-
togori. Saitama prefecture, in 1908, APP
pealed from the judgment of the
Urawa local court, where he was sen.
fenced to penal servitude for life
Since April last year, during the
public trial of the accused, he has not
uttered single word This attitude
led the judge and the public prosecu-
tor to conclude that he feigned matl-
ness as the last resort, hoping to
get released. He was medically eX.
amined by DR.. Kure and Dr. Miyake.
and in this examination DR.. Miyake
adopted a singular method.
There is belief that the blood of a
venomous snake is soluble with that
of an ordinary man. but not with that
of mailman. The doctor applied this
principle to the examination of the
suspected lunatic. and sure enough
the blood of the venomous snake did
not dissolve in the blood of the ac
cused. Thus the doctor concluded
that he was really mad.
The other doctor also gave evidence
about the lunacy of the defendant
The judge ordered that the trial
should be postponed until the ac
cused was recovered from his abnor
NAL condition.-Japan Advertiser.

Indian Cremation Must stop.

Some time ago the agent ami other
officers in charge of the Yuma reserva-

burning the houses of the dead. They
showed how easy it would be for fire
to sweep over a part Of the reserya-

but a few days ago celebrated the tie
parture of one of their number in the
most approved redskin style. The per
sonal effects of the deceased were
burned and his house was set on fire.
He was supposed to have arrived in
the happy hunting ground, ready for
an enthusiastic reception
But. inasmuch as the personal iop
erty of a deceased person belongs to
the heirs by the California law, there
is no doubt that jealous friends over
stepped the law when they cremated
everything the dead Indian had ever
owned.
The practice of the Yuma Indians
in burning their dead together with
the possessions left by the departed
braves, has aroused the federal author

His superior asked him what the trou-

Power of Growing Trees,

Those who wish to see the enormous
power of a growing tree can do SO by
visiting a street in Ottawa. Two trees
that were enclosed by the cement side
walk when it was built many years
ago have split the slabs into frag-
ments by huge cracks extending in
several directions.
The breaking tensile strength of neat
cement as used for the city is 500
pounds per square inch. With the
mixture as used in the sidewalks an
expert estimated it would be about
leo pounds per square inch There are
several of these cracks, SO the pres
sure must have been still more than
for one fracture The trees are a
chestnut and soft maple. A point
worthy Of note in this connection is
that when healthy trees are enclosed
by concrete walks space should be
left for expansion at least equal to
the average size of the full growth of
the tree

Pests OF various kinds cost the
American citizen the staggering sum
of s2,O00OOO,OOO annually, according
to the Washington Post. If" said
Henry Wethersbee Henshaw, I'VE could

but DR.. HenshaW is assistant chief of

one having authority
And that is not half so startling
as some of the other figures they can
give you at the Agricultural Depart
ment on the cost of little things
things some of them almost microscop-
ically small. According to experts in
the biological survey, the smaller NAM
mails, for the most part rodents, cost the
farmers of the country something like
$3.50, 100000 year. And that's a pref
ty big board bill, But it pales into in
significance beside the tribute exacted
from the same farmer by the insect
pests. According to c. L. Marlatt. as.
sistant chief of the Bureau of Ento-
mology, injurious insects cost the
farmer about 10 per cent of his prod

physiological and orderly distribution
Of fat in the connective tissue makes
all the difference between beauty and
ugliness. In considering the psychic
role of fat We should specially bear in
mind, G. NJ. Miles says, its reserve
function in relation to active vital pro-
cesses. A liberal deposition of fat is
one of natures wise precautions to
enable us to bear some of the trials
of life. 1t has been known from earl
lest antiquity that fat people are more
contented and optimistic than lean
ones and the supply of fat may be
compared to the ample bank account
of busy and provident man.
Niles says that lie believes he is
correct in asserting that a physiologi-
cal reserve Of fat by its very presence
exerts a quieting and reassuring in
fluence on the vital forces most con-
cerned in constructive metabolism,
while its lack leads to a physical dis
content and unrest, which sooner or
later reacts on the disposition, develop
ing into the pessimism and tempera-
mental discomfort so often seen in lean
people.

The aforementioned Hessian fly in

DYNAsTIc NAMES OF ROYALTY
Why the Late King Selected Edward
Rather Tthun That of Albert.

Most royal families have a given
name they employ as sort of dis
tinctive dynastic hall mark. the Bos-
ton Evening Transcript says. George
and Frederick are distinctively Han
overian. as Edward is distinctively
English. The late king selected Ed
ward rather than Albert from motives
at once filial and polite. He desired
that his father should stand alone in
his glory as Albert in English his
tory. and Edward was associated
with old and stately traditions of the
Plantaganets and Tudors. Similarly
the French 'Bourbons usually have a
Louis or a Charles among their string
of names, and the Bonapartes never
forget Napoleon at the baptismal font
The most striking instance of rever-
ence for a dynastic name is found in
the princely family of Reuss in Ger
many. There are two principalities of
elder and the younger lines. Every
reigning prince must bear the name
of Henry. Henry. XXIV. reigns over
one principally and Henry XIV. over
the other. All the heads of the houses
for 900 years have been Henrys and
in a grand family council early in
the eighteenth century it was decreed
that the figures should not exceed 100,
after which a new series should begin
with Henry /. AS botn branches chung
to Henry, a working arrangement was
patched UP by which the younger line
begin new group numbering with
each century.
The first Henry born in the TWEEN
tieth century who shall mount the
tiny throne must revert to Henry L.,
and similarly his descendant senior
among the Henrys of the twenty-frst
century is foreordained to be l., too.
Rather confusing is the system to the
reader. but. if the people of the prin-
cipalities like it no one else need be
concerned.

Census Enumeration shows City's
Growth I'm Ten Years.
New York city has increased more
than 100000 in population In ten
years. Little Old New York" is fad
ing aw-y in population. while her sis
ter boroughs are growing marvelously.
This is the tale the census enumera-
ton is beginning to iell
OF course, all that can be done is
to estimate the changes that will be
found in the population of the entire
city. and even this cannot be done
with certainty. What has been learned
so far Is that the swarming congested
sections Of New York have been
thinned out by the opening up Of sub
ways, bridges and tunnels that have
been completed since the last census,
and that other boroughs are increas-
ing in population In a manner that
could not have been foreseen five years
ago.
1t has been believed heretofore that
al least 100000 residents OF New York
have moved across into New Jersey in
the last i've years. and that larger
number has taken advantage OF the
opening OF the Williamsburg bridge.
the Greensboro bridge and the sub
way tube to move to Brooklyn.
The most optimistic of the enumer-
ators set 100000 as the mark New
York city will reach when the enumer-
alton is complete. but the more con-
servative place the total at 100000.
Even this Is an increase of more than
100000 in ten years. as the census
Of 1900 showed the population of the
I'VE boroughs to be 3,437 ,202.
Should the complete reports of the
present census show a population OF
100000, 1t would mean that the five
boroughs of the city have doubled in
population in twenty years. The popus
lation in 1890 was 2.507 .414; in 1900.

Plainly, the Taft administration is
| committed to the special interests:
| plainly, there is no hope for redemp-
ton in that line.-The Commoner.
This statement from Mr.. Bryan's pa
per is on a par with his criticism of
| Gov Hughes as q servant of exploit
ing corporations"
Coming from hostile partisan such
rank falsehoods may be overlooked by
the charitable. but when members of
the same party as the men attacked
give them currency there remains such
thing as political honor.
Here is the Taft administration,
through its legal department, engaged
| in the most vigorous warfare against
Illegal trusts that the country has
ever seen: here it is seeking to bring
within the purview of the Sherman
act every possible form of monopolis-
| tic enterprise. President Taft has a
| program not only of aggressive trust
prosecution but of investigation into
various species of monopoly, a program
! which within one brief year has
pushed the tobacco trust to the last
ditch, has the sugar trust on the rack
| and the beef trust on the hook, has
turned the searchlight on the cotton
| pool and The butter combination.
With due credit to Mr.. Roosevelt
| for his great services it must be ap-
preciated that his labors are not the
| labors of Mr.. Taft; that he left to his
| successor the actual work of carrying
out the things which he had preached.
However much one may delight in
Mr. Roosevelt's personality and his
ability to point out and denounce the
enemies of the republic in thunderous
| phrases, that is no reason why the
same appreciation and sympathetic in
| terest should not be given to President
Taft because it has been left to him
| to convert this entertaining preach
