CLASSIFYING CRIMINALS.

Just how far effectiveness may in
fluence individuals toward criminal
acts will be analS zed with some de-
gree of accuracy in the course of
time. A bill is before our present
legislature to provide a state psy-
chiatrfst, an official who will exam
ibe the mental condition of all Grim
inals sentenced to the Georgia peni-
tertiary, and further provision is
made for the segregation of those
found defective and special treatment
for them. AS the mind influences
the moral acts so the body influences
the mental states, and there is much
to learn n this new linking of crime
with disease.

"DENATURED HAZINC."

A plan to forestall the rough haz-
ing so much in vogue in colleges, is
about to be tried at Emory Univer-
sity, where hazing has been under
the ban for several years. This idea
is to institute a Freshman Week,
which will precede by four days the
opening of the regular Fall term. For
freshmen only there will be series
of lectures on various phases of col
lege activities. Then on opening night
a receiving line of freshmen at the
reception will afford pleasanter be-
ginning of acquaintanceship with
the older student body than did the
usual grabbing, padding and hair
cutting introduction of former times.
Hazing, like mobbing, is letting
loose of primitive savage instincts
that refinments of education and cul-
ture have not yet eliminated
They do not work off SUI
perfluous energy as some say;
They encourage the overthrow of re-
fined feelings and attitude toward
others that civilization has taken
many years to cultivae in US all.

TEA PLANTS FOR HEDGES.

Many years ago tea planting on a
large scale was attempted in South
Carolina, but while the plants flour
ished, the price necessary for profit
was more than that for the tea pro-
duced by the Chinese and marketed
in the United States, so the industry
languished. The tea plants, however,
continue to- live and of late their
beauty for borders and other land
scape effects has been discovered and
transplanting from the largest tea
plantation in the state are being ship
ped for that purpose.
SAFE KEEKIN GFOR RADIUM.
The great value for such small
amounts makes radium a possession
subject to frequent theft and partic-
ularly hard to regain. A German
professor believes he has made his
treasure secure. The substance is of
course placed in tiny glass phials and
these in large glass container and
sealed in by fusion. A thick lead box
is the outer receptacle and modern
safe the depository. A burglar proof
arrangement for the safe consists of
loose chains few inches apart all
around it. A slight movement of
these chains rings an alarm bell for
the watchman's notice.

WHEAT RISE HALTED.
Lapse in Prices Follows Advance,

CHICAGO, August CP.-After
advancing more than 18 cents
bushel from prices current a week
ago, the wheat market receded at
the last today to a range varying
from the same as yesterdays finish

ascribed to profit taking sales and to
preparations for the United States

Monday. Wheat closed nervous, with
last sales at $1.66 to $166h for
September and $1.63b to s1.64 for
December.
Throughout the day the market
was decidedly unsettled and was sub

the general tendency downward after
September had touched s1.675.
