stand on precisely the same footing be-
fore the law.
Difhculty in determining percentage.
InaSmuch as it is conceded that the
III Of intoxicants results in a sufi-
clent amount of crime to warrant the
restraining hand Of the law, the exact
percentage Of such crime caused by
the saloon Is only a matter Of academic
interest. Just what this percentage
may be is largely a matter Of con
lecture, and Investigations into this
subject vary with the viewpoint and
the methods Of the investigator. AS a
conspicuous example. Harry X. Thaw,
while inflamed with drink. shot and
killed Stanford White. Thaw had had
plenty OF chances to kill White after
he knew Of the grievance and when
he was sober. But not until he be-
came heated with wine did he fire the
fatal bullet. In order to escape the
electric chair his attorneys proved him
to be insane. They have spent time
since then in trying to prove that he
was not insane.
The reputed cause Of this shooting
might be %variously set down according
to the notion Of the investigator. One
might attribute it to insanity; another
might attribute it to temporary passion
at a fancied Or real wrong: another
might properly say that had it not
been for the wine which inhamed
Thaw On the fatal night the tragedy
would never have happened.

IL. Aim Of This Lesson.-To show
that V so per cent of crime can be
traced to the saloon and its influence.
III. The Lesson.-What is crime?
In a broad sense, crime is defined as
"solne act or omission in respect to
which legal punishment may be in
f1icted upon the person who is In de-
fault, whether by acting or emitting
to act" 1t is an act or omission in
juriously affecting the whole commu-
nifty, prcjudicing public rights, which
acts or omissions are punishable by
law. A course Of conduct is frequent
~ considered as "crlminal' which con-
stitutes no technical violation OF law.
The saloon responsible for crime.
This principle is not disputed as to
theft. murder or anything else except
us to the traffic in intoxicating liquors.
and 1t is disputed In this respect chiefly
by the liquor dealers themselves or by
persons who profit by the traffic. In
setting forth its claims the saloon
usually puts forth as spokesman rent
ers Of saloon property. criminal law
yers who thrive on the saloon bust
ness, business men who sell their goods
largely to salOons-coopers. bottle
makers. icemen, cigarmahers. brass
manufacturers. and the like. The
crooked politician. who seeks office
through the saloon votes. is diligent In
urging theories of this sort.
Legitimate uses OF alcohol.
Those who would prohibit the traffic
in i%ntoxicants for beverage purposes
would not interfere with. but would
encourage. the use OF alcohol for me-
chanical. industrial. manufacturing
and scientific purposes. They demand
only that the state take precisely the
same course toward alcohol as is taken
toward impure meat and poisonous
drugs. They would encourage the use
of spoiled meat for the manufacture of
soap, fertilizer and for other useful
purposes. but would prohibit the sale
for eating. purposes. lntoxicants. be-
ing fur more dangerous to the public
health and to the public morals. should

low Surface Of the Ocean.
Answering a correspondent who
writes: II am very anxious to find out
whether a ship will sink IL the bottom
Of the ocean Is at great depth or. at
least, at such depth that the weight Of
the water would be greater than the
weight Of the ship. 1t is the opinion
of many that at a certain depth the
ship would remain suspended instead
of sinking to the bottom. Please ex-
plain the exact truth OF the matter"
Edgar Lucien Larkin in the New York
American says:
Amy mass that will entirely sink
below the surface Of the ocean will
sink to the bottom Of any sea or ocean
on earth. This is because water is al
most incompressible.

At Least 100000 Will Be
Spent by Those Immediately
Concerned In Yachting Con-
test Over the $500 Trophy.
Sir Thomas Share of
This Expense Will Be
About 0ne-ha|f.

~HE costliest series of yacht
aces the world has eve
known will be sailed of Sandy
Hook in the first two weeks
Of September, when Sir Thomas Lip
tons Shamrock Nv. meets the Ameri-
can yacht selected to defend the $500
ugly silver pitcher that since 1851 has
been called the Americas cup.
The Irish challenger, estimating on
his previous expenditures, will spend a
million dollars from the beginning to
the end Of the yachting season. The
owners Of the three yachts which are
competing for the honor Of defending
the cup will spend not less than $780,
600 before the winning signal is hoist
ed ON the cup committees boat at the
end Of the last race.
For in each case. in addition to the
actual cost Of building. fitting out, hire
Of crews, charters OF tenders and the
hundred and n expenses that make
yachting n Of the most costly Of
pastimes, large sums Of money must
be spent In entertaining guests upon
tenders who accompany the cup yachts
on their trial races, and on the actual
contests for the trophy.
With two exceptions there has never
been any public statement made as to
the cost Of an American yacht par
ticipating in a race for this trophy. but
a fair estimate of the cost OF the Re-
solute, Vanitie and Defiance is $1,000 0
each. This does not include, of course,
the enormous expense Of running them
and their tenders during the season.
Upton Spent Millions.
Since 1893, when Sir Thomas Upton
FIRST challenged for the Americas cup
with the Shamrock l. lin which year
he bought the steam yacht Erin for
1915, 600 and had her refitted at a cost
Of $25, 1000, the Irish merchant knight

vious attempts to take the cup back
to England.
