MORE insane
BACHELORS Than
BENEDICTS NOW

Physicians gathered here to attend
the clinics being hEld this week read
with interest today the report of the
Government Hospital for the Insane,
just made public by Walter l.. Fisher
Secretary OF the Interior. The report
based on the history OF nearly three
thousand patients, reveals that alco-
hCliE m has played practically negli-
bic part in unbalancing the minds of
these patients. OF the patients in the
institution only three cases are report
cd where the history of the patient
srCws they became insane from the
Esc of alcohol.
Another part Of the report shows
that insanity seiZes with greater cas- e
upon the bachelors than upon the mar
red man, despite the worries of the
benedict over the cost of high living.
The report shows sharply the burd-
On placed upon this country by the
alien insane. The proportion of alien
II tents is greatly in excess Of the
All erican born. The majority of the
alien insane at the hos pital are Ger
mans.
Bearing on the theory of INSANITY
being hereditary, the report tells OF
ore family in West Virginia whose
history has been traced through 673
individuals. of whom fifty four were
mentally defective.-N. Y. Telegram.

Chin BEAUTY

For curing a double chin one simple
movement is invaluable, but the rem
edy should be resoTted TO early, as in
late life the skin loses it's elasticity
and fails to respond quickly to the
touch. Rub under the chin with your
fingers, beginning at one side and
drawing the fingers out at the other.
This done with first one hand and
then the other makes many strokes a
minute possible. and the flesh under
such treatment should by and by be-
gin TO grow less flabby and the double
chin to be less conspicuous. Firm,
steady strokes with the fingers should
be given, and to quicken the cure an
astringent lotion should now and then
be used.

Nine outTof ten girls will admit to a

very much liked. These severe effects
are highly favored by the young girl

HATS DEBUTANTES MAY WEAR NOW

The Tam O'Shanter crowns are so
very girlish and becoming that it is
not surprising to find them so popu-
lar among the younger generation.
One stunning hat of this type ordered
by young blonde to wear with her
black velvet suit is of black velours,
with wide brim of the natural opos-
sum. A little to one side of the front
Is placed an ornament of Yari-colOred
embroidery. To wear with this she
has bought closely fitting collarette
of the fur, caught at the side with a
bow of black velvet ribbon and long
ends reaching below the waist, finish
ed with. the embroidery. Even the
deep muff of velours, edged with the
fur. has motif of the embroidery by
way of trimming. District plumes are
also often used to decorate these large
soft hats, although the very smartest
ones are devoid of every vestige of
trimming
There are very dressy hats, with
wide brims and broad crowns, on
which the trimming is applied fatty
on the brim. Different feathery fan
tastes are used in this way, also metal
lie faces and flowers, and sometimes
folds of ribbon. A particularly fetch
ing hat displayed brim trimmed
with folds of malines, which is Won
derfully becoming.
The wise debutante will not over
look the coquettish little theater cap,
which may be fashioned from metallic
tissues, lace and flowers. velvet
sparkling with mock jewels, beaded
nets of every description, gauzy .chif-
fons and tulles with touches of fur.

This dam will be higher than the
former structure, yet that one backed

miles ard a splendid lake was form
ed its greatest depth about 60 feet
making an ideal boating and fish

four to five miles wide and in other
places the cliffs on each side would
be only about one hundred yards

over a fault in the earth and water

its foundation so deep that it will

NEW JERSEY CAMPAIGN.
President Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt
Finish Battle Today.

New York. May 27.-President TAFT
and Col. Roosevelt will wind up their
Whirlwind campaign in New Jersey
today, preliminary to tomorrow 5
presidential preference primary
which is looked upon by politicians
as the last and most decisive battle
of the campaign for delegates to the
Chicago convention. The president
left early this morning for final
speaking trip along the shore to At
lantic City, stopping at several cities
and towns en- route, and Will then
go to Washington to await the re.
turns that may decide whether or not
he will get the nomination. New
Jersey is an important pivotal state
and the decision of its voters viii
probably 30 far toward deciding the
issue. Col. Roosevelt will also spend
today across the river and Will ad-
dress several large meetings. In the
opinion of the political prophets 1t is
a case of hoss and hUss' as to which
will win in tomorrow's battle of bal
lots. Both sides are busy making
claims, and both appear equally con
fident.
Never before in the political his
tory of New Jersey have the voters
been so interested in the presidential
situation and it is likely that
mammoth vote will be cast tomorrow.
Both the president and the former
president have been campaigning
through the state during the past
week, their speeches, charges and
countercharges arousing the voters to
wild enthusiasm. Senator LaFollette
has also been speaking in the state
but is not considered an important
faction in the situation. On the dem
ocratic side the fight between the
Wilson and the anti-Wilson men also
has been of a spirited nature.

GENERAL MILES DEFEATED.
A SIMPLE Fire Escape Causes Him
to Leave st. louis Miffed.


St Louis, Mo. May 26.-A pro
jectng fire escape on the Odeon
building was the cause of the defeat
of General Nelson A. Miles, L. s. A.,
retired, in his attempt to address
St Loisjans on "America's Danger"
The general left St Louis early
today indignant at the action which
resulted in two halls being closed
to him and under a storm OF criti-
Cism from the Rev. Father ~ l.. Fran,
zen, pastor of st. Alphonsus church.
After the second Baptist church was
closed to the general, the Odeon was
rented but also barred to him when
Father Franzen notified the manage
ment that if Miles spoke they would
have to take down their fire escape,
which projects onto church propertl,
With the fire escape down the build
ing would not come up to the fire
inspection requirements and Miles
was odtmaneuvered.
II was said here that Miles speech
was to he an attack on Catholicism

RAILWAY BUSINESS FOR MARCH.

For ninety per cent of the steam
railway mileage of the United States
the aggregate of the operating reve-
nues for March showed an increase
of $l2,66l,9 ,90l as compared with
March, 1911. Operating expenses
showed an increase of $l2, 1924 and
net operating revenue an increase Of
$509,507. -,
This increase in the total of net
operating revenue was due solely
to the larger returns incident to an
increase in railway mileage. When
the returns ale measured by the
average per mile, the only proper
basis for comparison, the net oper-
ating revenue shows decrease, The
average was S306 per mile of line 70:
March, 1912, and 500 for March,
1911. This average for 1911 was
twelve and efsht-tenths per cent less
than for March, 1910.
Railway taxes for March amounted
to $9,576,575, or $li per mile, an in
crease of eight per cent over March,
1911.
These compilations were made by
the Bureau OF Railway Economics
from reports of the railway compan
les for the month in question that
had been filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission prior to May
10th.
