 Young in years, but old in art, mus might one characterize this phenomenal vionnist who in his youth has known such successes as is conceded to lew artists of his age. Before his return from Europe, his art was known ana his name a word to conjure with Tn the great musical centers of Europe, under the baton of such distinguished conduc- tors as Nikish Fielder, Abentroth' Bode, Coyamis and Malada. His or chestral appearances brought him spe- cial distinction.
 During his first session in New fork' following his debut at the Metropoh- tan Opera House, he made no iewei than five recital appearances in addl, ton to filling innumerable orchestra and recital engagements throughou' the country.

"In this small country in the space
of two centuries, there appeared such

never since been found on the whole

"Galton concludes that the average

English race of the present day as
the latter is above that Of the African

Anyone who will face these facts,
concludes DR.. Conklin, must admit
that there has been no progress in the
intellectual capacity of man in the
past two or three thousand years.
We may be able to raise the intel
lectual level of the general mass
and we are doing this-but we can
not create new order of intellect
that will be superior to the genius OF
Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, or Shakes
peare, Newton, Darwin.
"By his control over nature, man
has taken into his evolution the whole
of his environment" says DR.. Conklin.
although his is not as strong as
the elephant nor as deft as the spider
nor as swift as the antelope or in the
air as the eagle, yet by his control OF
the forces of nature outside of his
body he can excel all animals in
strength and delicacy of movement,
in speed and power on land, in water,
and n air.

respects the most important which has

HANGS OUT CLOTHES
AND GETS ARRESTED
Neighbor identifies Missing Linen
Many Other Things Re-
covered

Hanging his clothes on the line led
to the arrest of w. A. Clonniger, an
operative of the Cannon mill last
week at York, and also what is be-
lieved to be the clearing up of sever
al recent house-breakings which had
heretofore baffled all Investigators.
John Thrift, also textile worker.
whose home was recently entered and
some wearing apparel stolen, recog-
nized the clothing hung out to dry as
his own and swore out a warrant for
Clonniger's arrest. A search Of his
house by Sheriff Fred E. Quinn, re-
yealed an assortment of miscellaneous
articles. some highly suspicious, pos
session of which Clonniger could not
satisfactorily explain. Many of the
articles were identified as the prop
erty of Tom Hopper and Mr.. Cham
bers, farmers living near York, whose
homes were recently broken into and
various articles, including clothing
and two revolvers, stolen.
A collection of the stolen goods in
the sheriff's office looked like the con-
tents of a peddler's pack There were
watches, revolvers, miscellaneous al
ticles of clothing, a score of keys and
a burglars flashlight. Clonniger is
about 27 years of age, is married and
came to York recently from North
Carolina.
Not the least interesting Of the
finds was a crude still, which the Of
ficers said was slightly different from
any device they had ever seen fol-
making moonshine. No whiskey OF
mash was found. Clonniger admitted
TO the officers that he had tried 70
make whiskey with his bizarre still
but said he had met with rather in
different success.
