WORLD RAPIDLY GOING MAD
English Authority on Lunacy and
Nervous Diseases Makes Start
ling Statement on Drink.

"The world is rapidly going mad"
says DR. Forbes Winslow, an English
authority on lunacy and nervous dis
eases. To-day there is one certified
unatic in every 269 of our population,
and If the increase in lunacy contin-
ues at the same rate as it has done
for the past fifty years, there will be
one lunatic in every four Of the popu-
lation by A. D. 2159. One quarter OF
the world will be mad I have no pa
tience with those who ascribe this
terrible condition of affairs to in
creased competition, and the wear and
tear Of modern life. 1t is mere shelly
ing of responsibility, and the true
causes of insanity are, the vices. not
the worries of civilization" He then
gives the causes Of insanity in the or
der in which he believes they should
be placed: First, drink; second. Gig
aret smoking; third, hereditv," and
adds, Until the drink question has
been properly dealt with the ma
ton will continue to go from bad to
worse"

MAKE IT PROFESSIONAL WORK
Society Formed Composed of Men
Who Will Give All Their Time
to the Planning of Cities.

Circulars distributed by the National
Conference of City Planning mark an
! interesting step in the growth of an
idea that is comparatively new in
| this country. City planning has form
| ed the topic for many recent discus
sions, especially in connection with
such proposals as those that endeavor
to look ahead of the growth of com
munity and so direct, the course and
style of building that the completed
work will be more modern, more beau
tiful and more sanitary than might
otherwise have been the case. Several
cities have been acknowledged as the
most beautiful in the United States,
and in this number Indianapolis has
generally been included. Others are
Detroit, Los Angeles and Washington.
But, with the exception of the nation
al capital, these cities owe little of the
attractiveness they may possess to-
day to the foresight and sagacity of
the founders. Detroit and Los Ange-
les, partly developed into municipali-
ties of charming individuality. Indi-
Rpolis, while bereft of either lake or
mountain setting, was fortunate in its
earlier days to possess the idea that
has since been developed in the Monu.
ment as the fixed center of the plat.
In all the discussions of city plan
ming examples taken have generally
been abstract; few opportunities were
offered for direct experiment. The
National Conference on City Planning,
with Offices in Boston, has attracted
to it's rolls a great number of archi-
tects, engineers and landscape work
ers, all of whom are interested in the
feasible practice, and not merely a
theory. The circulars issued are for
a proposed study in city planning. In
the beginning it is assumed that a Ger.
tain tract of land is to be handled !
All the conditions are assumed to be
known, even to the installation of
public service facilities. This has
been done in order that the competi. !
tors may all work from the same |
basis. Given the example, and an idea |
as to how the city in which the sup. |
posed tract lies will grow, the archi-
tect may go ahead with his planning
The idea of the conference, which |
will exhibit the plans submitted, is to
develop the idea of city planning and
to make it as widespread over the
United States as possible. Cities, like
habits, are too often allowed just to
grow" and once grown they are diff
fcult to change.-Indianapo News.

RIGHT PLACE FOR A SALOON
dure Presence of Dirty Grogshop
Why Should the Poor?

Where is the right place for a sa.
| loon? Where is the saloon wanted?
If not the fashionable, mercantile es-
adjustments, what other kinds of
business are likely to be helped by
the proximity of gin mills? Let some
! one name them. Is 1t the baker, the
tailor, the shoemaker the butcher, the
milliner the bookseller? Do any of
these find it of particular advantage
to their trade to have a grog-seller
come and open up shop beside them?
What surroundings are necessary in
order to justify the opening of resorts
for lsafers, or drunkard mills, of dens
for the propagation of vice and crime?
What neighborhood shall be selected
for the debauching Of men, for the de.
struction of families, for the making
Of paupers and felons? Which is the
worst, to open saloon near a school
or church. or to open 1t next door
to home, in front of a home, over a
home or under a home? What Is there
that should make a grogshop stencil
in the nostrils of the public on one
street and a sweet-smelling SAVIOR on
another? Is a saloon on Fifth ave-
nue. calculated to do greater harm
than a beer dive on Mulberry street?
If the wealthy and powerful cannot
endure the presence Of the grogshop
why should it be thrust upon the poor
and weak? Are the tenement dis
tricts-the homes of those already
deep down in poverty, squalor and
misery-the proper places to set the
saloons? Are they needed to help
men live purer lives, to make happier
homes, to strengthen the weak to
cheer the downcast, to guide the err.
ring? Who shall take upon himself
the responsibility of declaring where |

presence Of grogshops and where the
people shall not be cursed? These, |

Queer Railroad Customs.

They have curious way of manag-
ing some railways in Syria. Weary
of much riding, a party of travellers on
their way to Beirut resolved one day
to go by train. They arrived at a
primitive station, but could find no
station master. Presently. however,
one of the camp followers arrived,
looked about and, spying a small red
flag lying on the platform, made off
with it along the line. When a train
came in the man waved his flag, the
engine driver pulled up, and the trav-
elers got in. Later, while the train
was putting on its way, the guard
came along the footboard and issued
the tickets, carefully noting down the
names, nationality and occupations of
the passengers. Two stations farther
on they got out, and here there was
not only a station master, but Il pOr-
ter, and the latter stayed with them
all day in an orchard till the camp
arrived. meanwhile feeding them with
honey from the comb. Where else,
one wonders, could such charming
railway system be found? - Wide
