A new psychopathic laboratory,
the first of its kind in the United
States, will be established soon as an
auxiliary to the municipal court of
Chicago. Husbands who fail in their
obligations to support their wives
will be taken to the laboratory on the
theory that they may have diseased
brains and that they may require
mental treatment as a substitute for
punishment. Those arrested. on
other charges may receive the same
treatment.
'"The backward boy may be back

"Persons who come into the police

tion in the laboratory if it appears
probable they need it."

although the wise philosopher may
act and think in a detached smooth
ness and equanimity, so the most
shallow and thoughtless person may
present a similar exterior, which is,
as YOU may have guessed, the stolid-
ity of ignorance.
Taking us all in all we are neither
sage and learned nor an asinine
community, though doubtless there
are both among us. In the bulk we
are a more or less common sense and
practical race bequeathed, in our ira
ditions, a touch of fineness and even
of nobility.
Some of us of today are in danger
of losing a great deal of what should
be our most precious prize. We are
all inclined to skim over the surface
of things SO lightly, so airily, that we
never scratch below the polish, and
have come first to imagine and then
firmly to believe that the polish is
all, the heart and the total of all. We
shirk the seriousness Of things, find a
distaste in solid thought, and mold
our faces to laughter at the mention
Of morality.-Exchange

An Indefensible Apology.

The publication by lie Temps" Of Paris of the
text of the new treaty between Colombia and the
United States may explain the reluctance Of the ad
ministratiOn at Washington to make the exact lan-
guage Of the treaty known. Dispatches from Bo-
gotta ten days ago announced that the United States
had practically "apoogized" for recognizing the Re
public Of Panama and having thus caused the loss
to Colombia not only Of considerable portion OF
her territory but also Of the which she
pected to derive from the rental Of transsthmian
canal right Of way. President Wilson and Mr.
Bryan pooh-poohed the idea of IAN apology But
they were careful to withhold the exact wording OF
their acknowledgements to Colombia.
The text In lie Temps II It is the original Eng
lish text or close approximation to 1t, shows
that there has been undue disposition to apollo
gize. In the RootCortes treaty Of January 9, 1909
this language was put into the preamble:
The United States of America and the Republic Of
Colombia, being equally animated by the desire 10
remove all obstacles to good understanding be-
tween them and TO facilitate the settlement of the
questions heretofore pending between Colombia and
Panama BY adjusting at the time the relations
Colombia to the canal which the United States is
constructing across the Isthmus of Panama
have resolved to conclude a treaty, etc.
In these words the United States admitted no
cupability in its relations with Colombia. The
blame for the arrangement and for CoIombla's
losses through it was shared by both nations, az
was proper, since Colombia stood in her own light
when she vainly attempted TO drive extortionate
bargain with the United States The Root Cortes
preamble one to which both countries could
subscribe with sef-respect. That cannot be said Of
the Bryan compact, which says
The government Of the United States desiring to
put end TO all disputes and differences with the
Republic of Colombia, occasoned by events which
10 in he
Isthmus Of Panama, in its name and in the name
Of the people of the United States expresses sincere
regret for anything that may have interrupted
altered the relations of cordial friendship existing
long between the two nations.
That puts all the Onus the United States aud
makes this country take upon itself exclusive blame
for the alienation from Colombia of the Department
Of Panama. II is an unnecessary and foolish con
cesson. We can afford to pay Colombia S2J,OOO,OO0
free will solace but we cannot afford TO crit
else unjustly past foreign policy, under which
we have obtained legal and perfectly equitable
title to the right Of way Panama. The SEN
ate should strike out the offensive preamble before
it ratifes the treaty.

Gross CareIessness" and Fire Hazards

Official inquiry into the causes Of the Eightn ave
nue. FIRE which cost eleven lives on Friday morning
has disclosed what Chief Kenon characterlzes as
gross carelessness," In the fact that there was

Records in the Tenement House Department show

based on unlawful occupation Of the basement
but II was withdrawn.
Anything done in investigation now Is merely an
autopsy, post-mortem. Eleven lives were wiped
out through gross careessness," and In all proba
bility the fault Will be placed any indi
vidual concusively enough so that penalty can be
imposed. The lesson OF the fire is the one lesson
conveyed by all similar occurTences-the necessity
for constant and frequent inspection TO prevent fire
risks and for severe and consistent prosecution OF
those who refuse or neglect to comply with de-
mands for improvements. Fire Commissioner Ad
amson and his uniformed corps, working with the
inspectors Of the Fire Prevention Bureau. are doing
splendid work on this line. Unfortunately, in the
short time since he started this plan Of work the
men have not been able 20 cover the entire city.

Trinity Refuses the Bread Line.

There may be criticism Of Trnitys refusal Of a
bequest of $4,000 to maintain bread line, but it
will be hasty unthinklng criticism. The reason for
this decision-that the money under the provisions
Of the will would revert to institutions where its
use would do more goods conclusive
The bread line is emergency measure. II ac-
composites good. undoubtedly, but it is admittedly
makeshift, temporary affair, designed to achieve
its greatest effectiveness in time Of special stress.
The hospitals and home for the blind to which the
money declined by Trinity will revert are at work
steadily, and there is unfortunately steady de-
mand for their services. It requires short consid
Grafton only to see that dollar for dollar the bequest
at work for these institutions accomplish more
for humanity than In the bread line. Trinity's de
cison IS broad wise one
