mother and then cutting his bod
in two and placing the dismembered
parts In a cinder car. Joseph FurI
man, in his statement, which nd
signed with witnesses, states that I'D
saw his brother Eugene kill hid
brother Theodore with an ak, and
that Eugene then carried the bod{
to cinder car on the "Headlights'I

north end of the railroad yardI
When confronted with evidence EuI

he stated what was written in th4
form of a sworn statement, but bel

said in the statement. The polic@
had very little to work on up I'd

Professor Brandcr Matthews OF Co
lumbia university in lecture deliver
ed before class in American litera
ture predicted that the United States
was due to have another war about
1880.
IF the law Of the succession OF
events holds and II the American peo,
pie have not changed In their national
character another great war Is apt to
take place about the years 1920 tc
$780," he said. II derive my conclu
sions for the possibility of such an
event from the repetition of wars as
they have occurred in American his
tory during the past $50 years. Histo
ry repeats itself, and the logical infer.
ence Is that another war will take
place about 1890"
Professor Matthews believes that l.
such a war should occur the United
States is apt to be in the wrong. with
the rapid increase Of wealth and popu
lation." he said, "our nation is likely ia

In recognition of their strength, may

TEACH CHILDREN
HOW To USE EYES
New Methods Being Tried In
the Public Schools.
TO AVOID hEARSIGHTEDNESS.
System Was Used For Eight Years In
North Dakota With Much Success.
Improper Use Of Eyes, Not Study,
Cause of Defective Vision.

Teaching the children how to see
and thereby conserving eyesight and
preventing many Of them from going
through life with spectacles is the
newest development in the public
schools.
Statistics of the board Of health indi-
cate that about II per cent Of the pu-
pills of the public schools are short
sighted, 1t Is the latest theory that
this myopia frequently develops from
straining Of the eyes by the pupils in
their efforts to see distinctly.
In the experiments now under way
the eyes of the children are trained by
exercises in correct seeing by means
of optical test cards. The pupils are
asked daily to test their eyes by read
Ing the cards, which are placed on the
walls Of the schoolrooms. 1t has been
found beneficial to rest the eyes from
study by looking up occasionally and
reading the cards. This has a tenden-
normal vision.
The system was tried for eight years
in the public schools of Grand Forks.
N. D., and there is a record of 10000
cases of pupils who have tried the sys-
tenn under the direction of their teach
ers. An article in the New York Med
ical Journal sets forth that after eight
years work the examination of 1000
pupils in the public schools of that
city revealed that less than per cent
were myopic. The previous percent
age had been 6.
Books and much study are not what
cause shortsightedness, according TO
this theory, but the improper use of
the eyes. The myopia is often due TO
a miscalcuation of distances and to I'M
necessary straining. 1t is found that
the keen sighted eagle of the air when
placed in a cage will often so little ad.
just his eyes to his new surroundings
tnat he becomes nearsighted within
few months.
There are many cases in the schools
of other defects Of vision, such as as
tigmatism. The present experiments.
however, are undertaken for the sole
purpose of correcting shortsightedneSs.
1t is believed that pupils often are
thought to be stupid or obstinate,
when, as a matter OF fact, they are
merely shortsighted. Educators are
much interested in the present expert
ments, and special attention also is be-
ing given to lighting, the size Of type
and other details which concern the
preservation of normal vision.
