THE HAND-SHAKING HABIT.

"Pinafore" Gilbert the great libret-
tist. has no liking for this country. 1t
stole his "Pinafore' and sang it IN
cities and towns and even crossroads
hamlets without paying him a cent. II
he had received only small royalty
on all the performances given, he
would have been rich man from
that source alone.
But he would have approved the
action taken by certain leaders of st.
Louis society in barring the hand
shake. In that most interesting cat
alogue of crimes which Gilbert has
his Kikado fit with proper punish
ments, he lists people with flabby
hands, and those who shake hands
in various absurd and irritating ways
He was right and these st. Louis
people have much to justify them.
Handshaking has lost most of its sig
nificance. 1t doesn't stand for any
thing vital any more. 1t is as mean
ingless as the flabby kisses which
women give each other when they
meet or when they part.

TRY SOME OF THIS
BOUNTIES FOR BABIES.

Poverty is said to be a handicap to
so many British subjects during the
first weeks of their existence that the
relief furnished by the bounty of
$3.50 hereafter to be given to the
parents of children born in the United
Kingdom is expected to bring about
a great improvement in the physique
Of the next generation. Mothers are
also to receive payments during the
first three or four weeks of the life of
the small British stranger
Subsidies for children appear to be
a great Improvement over the only
kind of subsidies the United States
knows very much about-sugar sub
sides and ship subsidies. The as
tonishing statement is made that Of
100000 children born annually in
the British Isles, at least 1000, ~
will be benificiaries OF the new pay
ments. The inference is that only
about 100000 enter the world with
out the handicap of oppressive cir
cumctances which the bounty is de-
signed to relieve. very practical
form of eugencies. indeed. is one
which will give the British baby a
better start in life. But how much
better would be a more fundamental
form that would improve industrial
conditions and equalize opportunities
and so make a bounty unnecessary.
One great condition that handi-
caps the individual in large areas OF
the British Isles is population.
| By how much will eugencies. through
subsidy aggravate that condition -

ELIGIBILITY
INJECTED INTO CASE
Questioned in Demurrer Filed
to Return on Writ of Habeas
Corpus for A. S. Connolly.

The eligibility Of Oliver r. Newman
to serve as a District Commissioner
was again called in question today in
the District Supreme Court. Attorney
Matthew E. O'Brien made the point in
a demurrer filed to the return of Supt.
Zinkhan to the writ Of habeas corpus
sued out by Albert S. Connolly. who
claims to be detained illegally because
of alleged charges made by him
against Senator Warren Of Wyoming.
The return of Mr.. Zinkhan sets forth
that Connolly was adjudged insane in
this District April 20. 1904, and that
inability has never been removed He
was discharged as ''unimproved" May
81, 1904. in the custody Of his brother,
to be taken to Iowa.
When he returned and was rearrested,
the answer states. the District Com
missiOners ordered his Incarceration In
the government hospital under the
previous commitment. Mr.. Zinkhan
says he is ready to deliver Connolly
to the custody of DR.. White at the
government hospital.
Board of Commissioners Questioned.
In demurring to the return. Attorney
O'Brien urged that the board Of Com
stituted. and that even If 1t were there
is no authority Of law for them to or
der the detention Of Connolly. Although
not set forth specifically. Mr.. O'Brien ex-
plains verbally that the claim that the
board Of Commissioners Is not properly
constituted will involve the question Of
Mr.. Newman's eligibility. The lawyer
also attacked the constitutionality of the
method Of trying alleged insane persons
on complaint Of the Commissioners.
Without hearing argument on the point
raised by the demurrer, Justice Wright
overruled it. holding the return to show
sufficient reason in law for OBTAINING Con-
molly, who had been adjudged insane. At
torney O'Brien secured permission to file
tomorrow a traverse Of the facts stated
in the return and the hearing went over.
Attorney O'Brien later decided to dis
miss the proceedings and allow Connolly
to be surrendered into the custody Of DR..
White at the government hospital. Coun-
sci announced his intention to apply later
for another writ of habeas corpus, in
which he hopes to try out the questions
of law raised by him, including the al
legged ineligibility of Commissioner New
