ANTECATH0L|C
 DEMONSTRATION

Mexico City, October 14.-A demonstra- tion organized by Nueva Era, the Madero organ of the capital, as a protest against the influence of the Catholic church in politics, and as an offset to the Catho- lie manifestation two nights ago, filled the streets with shouting, banner carry ing crowd of citizens of all classes to- night. An impromptu counter demonstra- tion, organized by students and admirers of De La Barra, followed the marchers, shouting in college yell rythm "Pino, no, while the followers of Pino Suarez were massed in one street listening to orators haranguing against the influence of the church and De La Barra, the vice presi- dential candidate of the Catholic party, the present provisional president drove to a point a block away to attend a musicale.
 The Barristas massed in front of the building, shouted their approval of him and his acts, and sang the national hymn. De La Barra responded with a brief speech from the gallery. One of the enthusiastic members of the crowd, climbing up the grating of a window be- low. thrust into his hands the national flag. De La Barra waved it, crying Viva Mexico" Viva La Libertad.' to the plaudits of the crowd.

JOpanese Dentistry

Japanese native dentists conduct their business in manner which would un- doubtedly cause any European praosi- tioner to open his eyes in amazement. The victim is seated on the ground, the dentist bends over him, and forces his left hand between the patients jaws in such g. manner that the mouth cannot possi- ply be closed Then he grasps the doomed tooth between the thumb and forefinger of the right hand, and with one deft wrench removes it and throws it upon the ground.
 So great is the skill of these native dentists that many of them are able to remove six or seven teeth minute. 1n- deed their skill is hardly to be wondered at. when one considers the course of pre- paratory training they are obliged to un- dergo.
 A number of holes are bored in stout plank, md this is fixed firmly in the ground. In the holes are driven wooden pegs, and the wood-be dentist has to ex- tract them with his fingers without dis lodging the board. This process is re- peated with a board of pine wood, and finally wit hone of oak. and it is only when he has succeeded in extracting the pegs from the oak plank that the Japan ese considers himself qualified to practice unnu his fallnw men.

BEST WORK AT SIXTY-FIVE This the Era of the Prepared Man,
 N Not the Young Man

From the Burling (Vt-1 Dispatch
 The keys and the seal of the Uni versity of Vermont were delivered to the new president Guy Potter Benton, by Darwin P. Kingsley, of New York, on behalf of the universitys board of trustees. and before he had finished speaking the new president said that in his opinion mans best work today Is done at the age of 65 years.
 Dr. Benton said one of the greatest crimes of modern times is that of edu- cational infanticide. Those Old Fath- CTS who wrote the constitution" he said, c'were for the most part under 50 years of age, but the men who are most highly revered and who are our leaders in the councils of thought today are those who have passed in years the three score mark. We have now pyra- teen years since the beginning of the last century. The apex, instead of marking the age limit of efficiency at 50 years, now reaches up and records it at 65 years.
 We often hear 1t said that this is tha age of the young man. The assertion is false. This is not the age of the young. It is the age of the prepared man. Preparation for largest useful ness is hindered by prematurity. If we can push infancy out further by con tinuing longer the education period of life we shall guarantee a larger measure of success for the individual and a more efficient citizenship. I hope the day Is coming when students, in- stead of beginning their engineering or medical. or other professional and vocational studies at IS years of age, will not undertake their special prep aration for life until they have laid broad and strong and deep the founda- tion for the rearing of proper super structure

POLICE ADMINISTRATION
By New York City

this statement would imply. 1t is be- lieyed that much of our American po- lice problem would be solved if the head of the police force had a term of at least 10 years and a tenure during good behavior At present the police commissioners term is either two years or four years and his tenure is at the pleasure of the mayor.
 If the police commissioner Is given a long term and a definite tenure he is not only enabled to carry out a definite ad- ministrative policy and to secure and re- tain the loyalty of hls subordinates by possessing the ability to reward efficient service and to punish inefficient service, but there is also secured competent di- rection of the police department. Under present day conditions in America the head of the police department is never q police expert. He is selected from civil life for business, social, or political req sons. He seldom has any peculiar fitness for the position, excepting, in the mind of the man who appoints him, and he never has any expert knowledge of police administration. The excellent German system of promoting an experienced pos lice officer of smaller city to the police commissionership of a larger city, has never been tried in this country. If the police commissioner were given a long term and a definite tenure this would at least remedy the present day condition that the police commissioner has no knowledge of police administration when he assumes the duties of his office and that he is turned out of office as soon as he has learned the details of the business. With long term and a definite tenure the city would at least enjoy the services of an experienced police commissioner during the latter half of his term.
 Every American municipality ought to improve its system of police administra- tion so that the remark of the lieutenant whom we have quoted may be changed to read: Whenever I do my duty I make enemies among the citizens and friends among my superior officers, and by neglecting my duty l may make friends among the citizens but I shall incur the enmity of my superior officers .'' If efficient police protection is desired, every municipality must not only strive for this result, but it must also see to 1t that the police officers official friends and official enemies have as much power and as much influence over his actions as his friends and his enemies in private life wield today.

by combustion, like an engine. If there isn't enoukh oxygen the hearts lags and the human machine runs like rusty en- zine.
 "When exercising freely in high alti- tudes the lungs give off a lot of cembus- ton products and these are being inyestl- gated by us. These combustion products are what cause headaches and mountain sickness"
 These Investigations show that the the ory that high attitudes are beneficial to tubercular patients is based on fact nut fancy. DTS. Haldane and Douglas eV- plain that they have confirmed by their tests on Pike's Peak the theory that while corpuscles are specal enemies of the tu- bercule bacillus This fact, then, having been established, it follows that persons suffering from tuberculosis in its iirst stages can find relief and perhaps cure in high attitudes, because the white cor puscles in their blood will increase in discovery alone is ample justification for the step taken by the International Typo graphical union, when it established .he Union Printers Home in Colorado, and the Modern Woodmen of America, when they purchased a large tract of land and erected near Colorado Springs their na- tional sanitarium.
 The government has two tuberculosis SanitorlumS for victims or the malauy III the army and the navy. The naval home is in Colorado and the army station at number and kill the disease germ. This or soldier, marine or sailor is found to be affected he is at once ordered to one of these places. There he is put to bed on an open veranda and kept there until all signs of temperature have disappeared. His diet is arranged to give him the max imum nourishment.
 Under these conditions his weakened lungs are given the best possible chance to develop their power to secrete oxygen and to improve the quality of the blood.

Whenever I do my duty I make enemies and only by neglecting my duty can I make friends" This was not the wall of dyspeptic pessimist but the frank statement of clean cut police The novelty of the remark caused me to ponder over It.
 In every walk of life the man who does his duty conscientiously makes enemies. A man who makes no enemies in life is a moral coward, who has no purpose in life and accompllshes no results. Only women who are 99.75 per cent whole hearted goodness can go through life making only friends and no enemies. The policeman's life is one in which man doubtless makes more enemies than in any other walk of life. No man likes the hand that jails him and deprives him of his lib- erty. Further conversation with this lieutenant of police, however, convinced me that he was proud of the enmities which he made among the criminal classes. He was not referring to that class of enemies. What he dreaded and what discouraged him at times was the fact that by doing his duty he in- cured the enmity of his superiors.
 He told ue that even this class of enemies would not cause him any an- noyance if he could be certain of the attitude of his superiors with refer ence to any particular statute. Changes of official policy, however, are the bane of the policemans life. If he could only be certain that the police commits sioner of today will be the police com- missioner tomorrow and next year and five years from today he could carry out the administrative policy of his commissioner conscientiously and with devotion. Under present conditions, however, every prudent police officer must take care that he does not carry out the policy of the police commis- sioner of today with such devotion as to incur the enmity of the new com- missioner who may be at the head of the police department tomorrow. Nor is this reference to a kaleidoscopic change in administration metaphorical. In New York city in particular and also in other American cities changes in ad- ministration take place as suddenly as

THOMAS BEATEN
 UP. BY STRIKERS

New Orleans, October 14--J. E. Thomas, freight clerk employed in one of the sheds of the Illinois Central railroad, whose employees are on strike, was given a severe beating late today while he and his wife were on the way to their board ing house. Thomas was set upon by a crowd of men who were administer ing a beating when Mrs. Thomas, who is also a railroad clerk interfered. She was also knocked down by one of the men who hastily made away on the ap- proach of the police.
 Thomas fired a shot at the fleeing men but it is not believed anyone was hit. He was arrested by the police for dis charging firearms within the city limits, but was later released on bond.

 As the whole secret of the cure appears to be in the altitude. there would seem 10 be no reason why the aerial hospital may not become a standard institution for the cure of lung and blood diseases. Tn place of taking the long, expensive trip to the mountains the invalid will move to the top of an extremely high building put up for that purpose, or to some bal- loon hospital, where, though not more than two miles or so from his office. he tenn is improved, and in time the patient will enjoy all the benefits of altitude.
