SENATOR TO HELP BOY.
Hitchcock to Assist Getting Alien
Into This Country.

Senator G. NJ. Hitchcock, accompa-
MED by a special medical board of the
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service, started on 1,000-mile trip to
Quebec, Canada, to determine whether
Stanley Stewart. a seven-year-old Eng
lish boy, shall be excluded from this
country as being feeble minded or not.
Three years ago the boys father,
who is a mechanic, came to this coun-
try to establish himself here and earn
enough to bring over his wife and four
children. Reaching Omaha, he found
steady employment. and, after three
years, had saved enough from his earn
ings to send for his family.
immigration inspectors detained them
at Quebec. on the ground that the
youngest son was feeble-minded Sem
ator Hitchcock, learning of the story,
and being interested by its pathos, spe-
cially investigated the case. As a re-
suit he came to the conclusion that the
boy was backward" rather than fee
ble-minded; also, that some Of the test
questions put to him were unfair. He,
therefore, stayed the deportation pro-
ceedings and will conduct a special ex-
animation Of the boy in Quebec to-day
at o'clock.

MAY ENFORCE RATES.
Fare to Mount Vernon Ordered
Changed BY Commission.

The washington-virginia Railway
Company promulgated and filed with
the Interstate Commerce Commission
a one-way rate of 35 cents and a round
trip rate OF 50 cents on trains between
Washington and Mount Vernon for all
trains.
The commission ordered a cut In
rates between these> points some time
ago. and found q one-way rate OF 80
cents and a round "trip rate of IS cents
on local trains. and a one-way rate Of
IS cents and a round-trip rate of so
cents on through trains. Just charges.
These rates the commission ordered to
go into effect.
The railway people claim that it is
impossible to bar local trafic from
through trains. and. therefore. that the
charges fixed by the commission are
impracticable to put in operation. They
preferred to make a fat rate for all
trains, which would represent the re-
duction ordered by the commission.
Rates established by the commission
may be enforced by that body upon the
return of a majority of IT'S members to
Washington.

SHOULD SPRAY LEAVES.
Brown Appearance of the Locust
Leaves Caused by Beetles.

According to advice Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture, the
brown and apparently dying condition
of the yellow or black locust in the
States Of Virginia, Maryland. Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, and Ohio is caused
by a leaf-mining and leaf-skeletonizing
insect known as the locust leaf beetle.
The Secretary of Agriculture, whose ex-
pert on forest insects has had the work
OF this insect under observation since
1880. states that nearly every summer the
brownish appearance of the locust In
small to extensive areas attracts atten-
tion and is the cause Of considerable in
quiry and some alarm. However, with
few exceptions, the trees recover and
come out fresh and green the following
spring. The foliage Of a few choice
shade trees might be protected by spray
ing with an arsenical, but no attempt to
protect the trees of groves or of the
forest would be justified by the results.

When one lawyer refers to another
as brother attorney" he employs an
ancient phrase peculiar to religious
and legal fraternities and suggests the
close historical relation between the
callings. In England for two and a
half centuries after the Norman CON
quest all high legal offices were filed
by churchmen. Laymen could not hope
for advancement or for clients, and in
deed the only path to the requirement
of professional education lay through
holy orders. The fraternal form Of
nddress common to the church passed
naturally into legal phfSseoogy
Brother So-and-so of the monastic or
der was brother" also at the bar. So
strong was popular prejudice against
admitting the competency of mere lay
men at law when this class began to
practice, about 1900, that lay barristers

The swastika.

The origin and history of the curious
charm known as the swastika have
been exhaustively described by Dr. I.
Carr. an English antiquarian. He
claims that the origin of the swastika
dates back to preChristian days. In
vestigation has led him to believe that
1t was originally the symbol Of polar
star worship and that it was the most
ancient and widely distributed symbol
that had ever existed. It has been
found in Chaldea. among the ruins of
the earlier cities of Troy, In Egypt, on
the prehistoric relics of Greece. on Hit

Indian mounds. in South America, on
