Counsel Foresees Conviction.

When this portion Of the record had
been read to them the jurors filed out
again. but Mr.. Steuer sensed defeat from
that moment. and his prediction that in
ten minutes they would re-enter with a
verdict of guilty came exactly true.
The verdict dazed Cummins, who re
mained standing after the court had be-
gun to thank the jury for their patience
and care during the five weeks which
the trial lasted. A court attendant told
him he could sit down, and he said husk-
ily;
Thank YOU, sir; thank you
George Cummins. his brother, who had
come over from Europe to be with him,

against him in the course OF the trial,

In the Sherin's room waiting to be
taken to the Tombs. the big man mas

HELPING THE PUBLIC TO

School Officials Swept by CCntagiOn Of Inquiry Study

So characteristic Of the present year

change in the attitude Of American
educators toward their working ma

bureau OF municipal research Of New

The national bureau OF education has
made public the results of q months

important findings of a four days stu

Special reports on Investigations of

land and ST. Louis schools will soon

a number of important documents

mediate school, school mortality,

son of Cleveland and his colleague,
Dr. Frank P. Bachman. State Com

turer profiting from efficiency tests,

able bulletins.
This contRgion of auto-inquiry at

tional Education association at San
Francisco, and it appropriated no less
than $4,000 for several school inqui-
ries
The layman who has not tried to
learn which children fail of promotion
will be surprised when told that in all
probability his school superintendent
has no idea what proportion OF the
children in each grade are not pro-
NOTED and the probable reasons. II
you will look at your school report,
you win probably find that the total
number Of children on the rolls dur
ing the year is put in one column,
and If given at ALL the total not pro-
NOTED in another, ana that Is all you
are told. The study Of retardation
finds out the total number of posi-
bilities OF promotion after subtracting
the deaths, removals from the city,
etc. When. in this manner. the nom
promotions are obtained, investigators
try to learn the relation Of physical
defects to promotions how many
children are over age for their class
or under age. how many have failed
once only or twice or more than twice.
Studying school problems from the
standpoint of the child has been
prompted by the wholesale adoption of
examination for physical defects. Be-
cause the first experiments in remov-
ing adenoids and eye troubles were
followed by rapid progress in school,
school men and women took 1t for
granted that finding the defect would
of course lead TO remedy. But from
one end of the country to the other
finding the defect has led often to
nothing more than piling up records OF

At the Bijou Last of the
Week Very Remark
~ able One.

A new. epoch in moving pictures
has come with the cinematographic
reproduction of Dante's immortal
inferno This Aim, which viii
appear at the Bijou Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, has made triumphaI
tour through Europe, where 1T has
been welcomed by the general pub
lie and students and scholars OF
Dante alike. The work occupied the
best EFFORTS OF a noted band OF Ital-
ian artists. to whom 1t was labor
of love. Two. years were needed to
complete the masterpiece which has
resulted from their efforts. OF
the thirty-four cantos. which
constitute the Infreno, the first and
perhaps the most widely known
part of the Divine Comedy. three
have been rhlmed..
One of the most striking features
OF the production is the absolute
loyalty of the film makers to every
detail both in letter and spirit to
the genius OF the great Tuscan poet.
The production consists OF i've
reels. arranged in proper sequence
in accord with the poets original
plan. The incidents OF the first
canto which no doubt are the most
familiar to the average reader
have been reproduced with startling
fidelity to the original. and form
Atting introduction to the whole
performance.

PoisonIng by Gas.

illuminating gas has caused more
deaths In some states recently than
have scarlet fever, infantile paral-
ysfs or TYPHOID fever. In Massa-
cliusetts and Rhode island it has be-
come an important cause OF death
and serious sickness. dn-451O the
death rate for measles in Massa-
chusetts was 4.76 and that lot

or approached by the deaths from
e4s TSoisoninE in Rhode Island IN
1908 and in Massachusetts in 1907
The deaths from this cause have

since the repeal OF the law regu-
lating the amount OF carbon
snonoxid in gas, according to PRO
lessor sedgwiclc OF the Massa-
chusetts Associations of Boards OF
Health. In the dGty years preced-
ing the repeal OF the law twenty
years ago, there were not dozen
cases Of gas poisoning. Since that
time; there have been more than
a 200.
The remedy, according to the
Journal OF the American Medical
association, is to go back to the old
fashioned coal gas. Coal gas Is still

COUNTY Co1iI,t and Roads,

What a pity It is that the mem
bers OF the county court do not have
homes all over the county" several
OF the farmers of Harrison county
are saying. asked why they say
that, they reply, 80 that there
would be improved roads, The re-
ply does not make their point quite
lucid, and asked for something more
specific, they call attention TO the
fact that two OF the members OF the
court have had a lot-of work at
great expense to the taxpayers done
on the roads leading to and by
their homes ana the other member
has had a road built to his home.
The farmers referred TO reason it
that II the members of the court
would move every change OF the
moon or two to other points of the
county. there would be road Inn
provement at those points, too For
instance. they say. # one OF the
members should move up Elk, the
road uFN that way would soon be a
good one. They say the same would
be true ifl>another member should
move toward Bridgeport. They also
declare that the same thing would
hold good, If the third member
should moye down toward Booths
Vile but, the question is, how can
the taxpayers induce the members
of the court to change their places
of abode? Ut 1t one the Telegram
Is unable Ft0Nanswer
However. there is moro truth
than poetry in what the complain
ing farmers and Taxpayers are say
ing about the action of the county
court dn improving and building GER
tain roads while others go practic-
ally untouched.
