MEWToNs THEORY Wrongly
dred Years 10 Vigorously Com
bated as Erroneous.

Here Is test for one kind of intel
lectuality. From July / 10 January l
the earth falls about 100000 miles
toward the sun to perihelion; then
from January to July 1 this weight
of heavy earth moves upward from
the sun the 100000 miles to the
starting point again. This movement
toward and from the sun takes place
every year.
This is the third century that man
has been taught by Sir Isaac Newton's
theory to believe that the sun attracts
the earth so fast In this fall of $1,000
OoO miles from July to January /
as to cause this great weight to rush
past the sun at perlhelion and to rise
up from the sun 100000 miles from
January to July /. to the starting
point again.
Any man who believes this idea has
missed the truth, and as long as he
believes 1t he never can tie able to UNI
derstand the simple truth that ex-
plains electricity. magnetism and the
cause Of all changes Of weather.
The idea of the suns attraction pull
Ing the earth fast enough to cause II
to so past the sun and move upward
from the sun to the original height
from which 1t started Is an ignorant
Idea akin to those ideas of misguided
people who tinker with perpetual mo.
ton machinery. II is a blight ON In.
tellectuality.
The effect of this erroneous idea
whose authorship was scrambled over
by Hooke and Newton---which has been
exploited over 200 years. has Leen to
retafd the progress OF all physical
sciences, because the true explanation
OF the cause of the earths movements
Is the fundamental principle upon
which all physical sciences depend.
Here is a sample of the public opin-
Ion Of couple of centuries:

When n person falls In love certain
Ideas and emotions form In the brain.
These emotions all center round the
object of attraction. As the love in

side is expected to be allotted at least
four hours for final argument, it was
apparent the case would not be placed
in the hands Of the jury for a YER

charge OF perjury growing out OF
testimony she gave few days ago
She testified to seeing Miss Rape at
Wheeler Hot Springs one day last
August, seized by an illness similar to
that from which she suffered at the
party in Arbuckle's rooms
a witness called yesterday by the
state declared however that Miss

UTILITIES COM.
SOUNDLY SCORED
Council Committee Will Seek
Data Relative to Decisions

The Public Utilities Commission vas
severely denounced last evening by
members of the transportation COM
rnittee of the common council ap-
pointed to endeavor to obtain lower
trolley fares and find some way out
of the jitney-trolley problem That
would aid the people OF the city IN
transportation matters.
The arraignment was based on the
complaint that the common council
had received no word from the COM
mission as to It's decision on matters
brought up at the hearing in the
Grammar school" Central Junior
High schooD some months ago. A
communication was prepared to be
sent to the commission, to the effect
that the committee is anxious to know
what decision the commission has
reached on the transportation matters
brought before it at the hearing held
t. the Grammar school,, and what
the committee might expect from the
commission.
1t was stated that Commissioner Ell
well had asserted that the commits
sion had written to the Connecticut
company to investigate the conditions
In certain sections Of the city and that
If there was need of greater service
there, and the company did not fur
nish that service someone else would.
The committee, as well as the
mayor when he was seated with its
members at the meeting, displayed
displeasure that such examination
should be left to the Connecticut COM
pany itself.
Mayor Curtis was called into the
meeting for consultation and agreed
with the members of the committee
that it would do no harm to COM
municate with the commission, stat
ing in such communication that the
committee had appeared before the
at that hearing, and de-
