w TO this statement many noted
psychiatrists and other students OF human
nature have heartily agreed and they also
agree in declaring this is because men are
naturally more emotional than women
It is only by centuries of constant training
and hard lighting that men have acquired the
power OF suppressng their emotions as well
as they do. Mans natural desire is to burst(
into tears with far greater frequency than
woman and il has been solemnly ayerred

This, declare those who have made study
OF it. has nothing whatever to d. with any
question of equal suffrage. But the fact re-
mains that women are less emotional tnan
men. that they can face a crisis better than
men. that they possess more native presence
of mind and consequently should be the
bread winners.
The old-estabished belief that women are
more emotional than men is a tauacy, men
are still more inclined to shrek and become
hysterical during exciting and trying times
than are women, II is mistaken Idea that
woman loses her mead in trying times, In
emotional crises, sudden emergencies. sud

times as these is it that woman really shines.

and also more tender-hearted than woman.
In many things man lacks the natural in

Tippins Bill Passed By
Senate IS to s

exander antinear-beer bill by a
vote of IS IT, 5. 1t is now up to
/ the Governor.
The vote on the bill as a whole
came after two hours of rather
featureless and general debate,
| in which the amendments were
disposed of in jig time. none re-
ceiving more than 13 votes.
Senator L. C. Graham's assertion
that Hooper Alexander, the prohi-
bition leader in the House, had
played politics with the bill to dis
play his hatred of Governor Brown
and President Slaton's threat to
arrest Spectators for disturbing
the deliberations with applause
proved the only sensations of the
day.
The bill passed as if by program.
It's supporters moved according
to a preconceived plan. The OPP
position was as spiritless as it was
futile.
THESE AMENDMENTS WERE
VOTED DOWN
The amendments which were
lost in rapid succession were:
By Senator w. S. Mann: To sub
NIT the bill to vote of the peo-
pie.
By Senator w. D. Crawford: To
strike out the clause calling every
beverage "liquor."
BY Senator J. B, Douglass: To
strike out the clause including pro-
prietary medicines and favoring
extracts.
By Senator Dickerson: To strike
out the clause allowing beverages
containing one-half of one per
cent of alcohol to be sold.
By Senator L C. Graham: To
place the enforcement Of the bib
on county Sherlffs instead of the
governor.
Those Senators voting for the
bill were. Aaron, Adams, Beau
champ, Blalock. H. C. and A. o..
Bush, Capelan, Cromartle, Gull
breth, Davis, Dickerson, Douglass,
Duggan, Edwards, Felker, Graham,
Hamilton, Harris. Hill, Hullender,
Knight, Kintaid, Marshall. Mayson,
Moore, Oliver, Owen, Prather, Ro-
berts, Shaw, Shingler, Sheppard,
Whitehead, Williams and Worley.
Those voting against the bill were |
Brown, Crawford, Enniss, Groven-
stein, King. Mann, Morris and
Spence.
Every Senator was in his seat
when the vote was taken and every
one voted but President Slaton.
Today's action means that the
bill will 90 at once to Governor
Brown for his approval or veto.
The chief executive declined to dis
cuss his probable action. 1t is
plainly evident that he will hold
the measure several days before
acting upon it. If he does not veto
it within five days it automatically
becomes a law.
LEADERS FEARED SLIGHTEST CHANGE
Apparently aware that n y
delay would mean the defeat of the
bill, Senator Bush, prohibition lead
er in the Senate, strove to keep the
bill from being amended.
Il wouldn't have the bill changed
even to the dotting of an j. Wheth-
er it be right or wrong" he asserted
when Senator Douglass submitted
an amendment striking the Drohibi-
ton clauses affecting proprietary
medicine.
Let the bill pass as it is" con-
tinued Senator Bush. IF it is a.
mended here it will 90 back to the
house and get into that rules COM
mittee there. If it does it will be
there until the end of the session. ;"
Senator Crawford saw Queer logic
in Bush's remarks. He said, The
Senator makes the novel proposal
to accept something we know to be
absurd just to get this bill passed"

Shippers Prepare to Reap

London. Aug. Sn.-If you talk TO an
Englishman about the Panama Canal at
present in nine cases out OF ten he will
flare up and denounCe the perfidy OF
Americans who have sunk so low that
they no longer respect their pledged
word: but aside from the question of tolls
or no tolls il is generally admitted that
the canal. even now. before its opening,
has greatly benefited English industry as
IT is hoped it will in time benefit English
shipping. Progressive Englishmen real
i7e that with the opening of the canal
th4 peaceful struggle between England
and Germany for the worlds markets
will enter into a new phase. and to the
fact that British shipowners are prepar-
ing TO make a bold fight to prevent the
Panama Canal traffic from falling into
German hands Is due that English ship
builders have received more orders than
they can fill for two or three years.
At Belfast the Royal Mail Steam Packet
Company has just placed orders for four
new vessels for this particular traffic.
Harland & Wolff will build two of them.
and Workman. Clark & Co. have been
given the contracts for the other two.
The vessels will he similar in design. and

dimensions of the ships have not been

vented by the use Of modern methods,
he says.
Dust Often Great Waste.
The dust from stacks and chimneys Of
all kinds" says Mr.. Parsons. is often
not only a great waste Of valuable ma
terial. but is one Of the great evils Of
modern civilization. Valuable metalifer-
Gus dusts are strewn broadcast from the
stacks OF our smelters; gases and poison
Gus solids destroy vegetable and animal
life and masses Of black smoke pour
from our chimneys and settle In clouds
over many OF our cities, rendering them
exceedingly disagreeable and unsightly.
Even with present knowledge. practically
all dust nuisances are preventable, and
legislation the country over Is diminishing
the dust output from shelters, cement
plants, and from smoking chimneys. often
with the result that the collection of dust
incident to smoke prevention becomes
source of profit.
Almost inestimable losses of sulphur.
arsenic, and bismuth are now taking
place in the fiue dusts, and fiue gases.
In proportion to output the losses OF
zinc are probably greater than those of
any other metal, and are especially i'm
portant because there is almost no re-
covery of zinc from manufactured prod
uCts and almost no conservation of zinc
by accumulation. Besides these losses in
the mining and concentration of zinc ores.
there are incalculable losses which. with
out question. run into many millions of
dollars and undoubtedly exceed the total
value of the zinc mined in slags and waste
products from other processes. Zinc has
been and in general Is still considered
about the worst impurity to be found In
the ores Of copper and lead, for 1t has
always given trouble in their metallurgy.
