A Religion of Optimism.

The Unitarian Is an optimlst- His
optimism is not the result OF a blindness
to the evils that are. Ii is an optimism
which has its foundation in the belief
that this is Gods world; that man is
Gods child; that the Eternal Goodness
pervades all things: that. therefore, all
discord must ultimately give way to har-
mony, all evil must ultimately give way
to good. He believes that it is his bust
ness 20 work with the Eternal Goodness
in bringing about these ends. and he sets
himself cheerfulIy to the task with the
firm belief that whatever of good he may
do will be nItarlan Pub

Logic Is Logic.

The textbooks logic used TO distinguish
between categorical and hypothetical syllogisms
though have long since forgotten what a
syllogism looks like. They were furious things;
some with "jokers and some without For
instance: bill has fever; therefore he is sick. "
That all right But: "Bili has not fever;
therefore. he is not sick" Here was something
manifesty wrong In the minor premise and in
the conclusion
In their brief opposing the sxtradition Of
Mr.. Harry K. Thaw. his lawyers have recourse
to something that seems to resemble syllogsm
of the hypothetical species:
If Mr.. Thaw insane at the time of his
departure from Matteawean he could not be
guilty of conspiracy. Therefore, criminal
charge cannot be brought against him.
If Mr.. Thaw was enough to be guilty
Of conspiracy he had legal right to escape.
since the statutes say that "a person charged
with the offense of breaking out of prison may
show in defense of that charge that he was
unlawfully confined in the prison" Therefore,
no criminal charge can be brought against Mr.

After the meeting OF the street COM

Jones NOT BLAMED
FOR NEGRO'S DEATH

After inquiring into the details OF
the accident in which Thomas Phil
lips, colored butler for many years in
the home of Mrs. A. L. Boulware. OF
/ East Franklin street. was fatally In
jured by the automobile driven by
Archer G.. Jones on the night Of Oc-
tober 25th, the coroner's jury yester-
day returned a verdict clearing Jones
Of blame.
The testimony of several witnesses
who aided in picking UP the colored
man, and who saw Mr.. Jones take
him in his automobile to Memorial
hospital. where ne lived for more
than a week, showed the accident was
clearly unavoidable on Jones' part.
When Jones is arraigned in Police
court Thursday on charge OF homi-
eide. it is likely his case will be dis
missed.

DR.. Vincent Talks
Mind of the Mob
President of University Amuses and
Instructs Large Number Last Sat-
urday Evening
is A PRACTIsED sPELL-BINDER
Proves Himself A Wit, An ImpersOn-
ator and A Possible Seller of
Patent Medicines

One of the best lectures Redwood
Falls has ever had an opportunity to
listen to was that by DR.. Vincent at
the Christian Church Saturday even
ing.
Dr. Vincent was ably introduced by
Senator Frank Clague, who spoke of
him as university builder caring not
for large buildings but for large per-
sonalities and large charactered men
and women.
Before beginning his address DIR.
Vincent spoke very briefly of the aims
and ends of the university and some
what of its needs.
The main address of the evening,
which was on "The Mind of the Mob
DIR. Vincent divided into three parts
First the examples of crowd psychol-
ogy. He showed clearly that psychol-
ogy is merely another term for human
nature and "crowd psychology" mere
ly the study of the way the mind of
the crowd is swayed in response to
outside influences. The second part of
the address dealt with the theories of
the "crowd psychologist" and proved
that the mind Of the mob is swayed
more by hypnotism of various natures
than anything else. The third divi-
sion of the address was "The Spell
binder" and here DR.. Vincent showed
himself the genuine thing in the line
of spell binders. Here was shown his
broad versatility as speaker; he not
only displayed wit, conscious know
ledge of his subject, but his imperson-
ations were realistic and dramatic to a
degree.
In a brief summary DR.. Vincent
gave the real pith Of his lecture He
declared the crowd spirit menace to
the age; it is the individual and indiv-
idual development alone which count
in all real progress of the race and ma
ton. The swaying of all minds in uni
son would be deadening and undevel-
oping as we'll as often of real physi-
cal danger.
Minnesota has no other speaker
quite in DIR. Vincent's class. In fact
he is almost unique in the manner of
his delivery as well as the choice of
his subjects. His work is wonderful
ly virile in thought, and while his
rapid speaking holds the listener tense,
the points emphasized in his talks
have happy, way of sticking in ones
memory.
