DOCTORS SONS WIN RENoWV
They Are Brought Forward as Rivals
Of the Progeny Of Both Farm
ere and Ministers.

At last rival to the farmer and tina
minister In the role of famous father
hood-or fatherhood of the famous
IL brought forward, the New York Eve
ming Sun observes. The changes have
been rung on the parentage of men
like the two chief candidates for the
presidency In the recent election and
of other leaders. But it remained for
William Browning, writing in the Med
zeal Record. to contend that among
eminent personages a large number
were sons of physicians.
There is food for thought in this,
and as the author gravely prophesies,
''the more embryotic science OF his
tory may yet find activators." He IL
Illustrates his theory by a list of the
men about Lincoln In the CiviA war
times. The vice president, secretary
Of state secretary OF war, speaker Of
the house and the organizer Of the
Unien McClellan-were all doc
tors sons. In the same group we ind
David Davis, the close friend and ad-
wiser of Lincoln: John Hay, his private
secretary; Stephen A. Douglas. his
leading opponent In the contests be-
fore the war.
Exactly what part in the preparation
OF these leaders for high station their
fathers may have taken we are not In
formed. But good case might be
made out Of clear thinking related to
prompt action and Of unselffsh devo-
ton to the needs Of the public. II
may be said that the old-fashioned
family physician was away from home
a good deal, but certainly his charac.
ter might well make deeper impres.
sion on the children than the repeated
precepts of man of another type.

SOME ORE DEPOSITS YOUNG
Newly Formed Veins Have Produced
such Famous Mining Camps as
GoldfReld and Tonepah.

Ore deposits ranging In age from the
time when the most complex living
thing on the earth was a crablike crea-
ture down to the time when mammals
were highly developed have been found
in this country. Among the younger
deposits Is a group known to gscao-
gists as the late tertiary veins.
These veins are widely distributed
and are of particular interest not only
because they have given rise to famous
mining camps such as Tonopah, Gold
field and Comstock. but because, owing
to their comparative youth, the surface
on which they crop out Is not greatly
below that whoch existed at the time
OF their origin. Thus by considering
the surface conditions and by labora5
tory experiments the phenomena they
present can be interpreted more accu-
rately than those of older deposits
which are at greater depths and are
more deeply cut by erosion.
Many of the late tertiary veins In
this country, all inclosed In lava rocks
or closely associated with them, are
found In Nevada.

Books In Prison.

Prison literature has many fine pro-
auctions to Its credit in prose as well
as poetry. In his prison at Athens.
Socrates completed his great argument
for immortality; in a Roman dungeon
Calico made some OF his greatest dis
coveries. In his prison In Wartburg
castle Luther translated the New Test
ament into the German language. Dur
ing his twelve years in Bedford jail
Bunyan dreamed his immortal dream
Of the Pilgrims Progress" Sir Wal
ter Raleigh wrote his fragmentary
history of the world to begulle the long
years of his Imprisonment in the
Tower Of London. Much of the New
Testament also is prison literature.
Some of the finest of the epistles of
st. Paul were written during his i'm
prisonment at Rome. and the Book Of
the Revelation of st. John was writ
ten while he was an exile on the island
prison Of Patmos.-London Chronicle.

significance and was being carried out
ON orders from Washington. They
made no announcement as to the
probable time when. the general north
ern movement would begin. and would
not even admit that withdrawal of
Pershing's troops after ten months in
Mexico was at hand. Since the effort
to effect an agreement with General
Carranza ended in failure, the admin
istration has indicated that its next
step would be made known through
action rather than by announcement
