Mrs. Walter Wheatle- of 5000 P street.

The letter to Mr.. Adler was written
from Brighton, England, during trip
abroad. and was a discussion Of the
possible renting Of her home. as she
was expecting to be absent for an ex-

later decided not to do. On that trip

AUTUMN
BY d. C. PEATTIE.

Witch hazel is the last flower; De-
cember % is the last day of the real
year, the astronomical year. The oak
is the last tree to drop its leaves The
grackleS are the last birds to cease
their chattering. The last insect to
lift its voice that l note is the cricket.
The sound seems a very tiny one; in
reality it has some remarkable carry
ing powers, for it can be heard for a
long distance, through walls, and in
noisy places.
once heard a lecture by a child
of nature who initiates birds marvel
ously, in which it was claimed that the
sensitive ear of the lecturer, attuned
to finer things than you and I, had
heard the song of cricket above the
roar of riveting machine in down.
town New York. To my mind this did
not prove how remarkable the natu-
ralist was; 1t proved how wonderful
crickets are. 1t was wonderful of him
to have found his way to Broad street.
the subway Is all that my human in
tellect can manage; it is, even more
wonderful of him to make himself
heard there, and still more so to get
up the heart to sing in that environ
ment
Only the other day heard cricket
singing in railway station, or more
exactly under the echoing. roaring.
grimy dome of the train shed. His
chirrup was perfectly audible all the
time. There seem TO be few places
where a cricket will not turn up, and
lift his sweet voice, and If you have
the pleasure of having one on the
hearth you will think him as cozy as
your fire, your cat or young wife.
There is no sound in life as Soporific
as a cricket's song.

They took their readers. They were a
sight to see. Not a clean cover among
them. The teacher took a sheet Of
clean paper, covered her book, gave
Willie bundle of Sheets. and the books
were covered with clean paper. The
books were all covered. The pencils
renewed and sharpened, the ink wells
washed and filled, the blackboards
washed to soft blackness like the
velvet OF pansy, the desks were pol
lshed and rubbed until they shonc.
When 3 o'clock came that room was
clean from corner to corner and the
class was sitting looking at that teacher
with smiling eyes.
Il had good look at them through
the stairway window and at first nv
heart sank. Then I remembered that
they were children and 1 was their
teacher and leader. The principal gave
me everything needed for the lob, and
I had 1t piled and ready before I
entered the room. You see, If you give
them work they understand. If you
work with them at it for a time. if
they can see where you are leading
them, they will follow you gladly. After
that, you can do what you please with
them"

Everyday Psychology
Substance of Psychology.
BY DIR. JESSE w. sPROwLs.

Psychology is an old inquiry-very
old. 1t became subject for inveStiga-
ton the very moment some one began
to inquire into the nature of conscious
ness. No doubt the cause and conSe-
quence of dreams had a prominent
place in this early inquiry. Forecast
ing the future must have had big
place, too. Lady Luck" was also busy
during these infant days of psychology.
The things that couldn't be accounted
for in natural way were assigned to
the spirit world. and soul was postu-
lated as the one and only cause for
them. So psychology was taken to be
study of the soul.
The old story is ended. Science
cannot find soul, at least in the old
sense of the term. The. old idea OF
soul lays out too big a field. 1t also
encroaches on theology, which touches
psychology only in spots. In order to
confine the inquiry to explanatory prln-
ciples that might have a natural foot
ing, the great inquiry was forced to
look for some other substance.
The first break from soul psychology
was a compromise All real revolutions
are compromises in the end. To get
science out of metaphysics was a real
battle. However, in the course OF time
psychology became the science OF the
mind. From the middle ages on down
to the present century that definition
seemed to satisfy everybody even
though a mind substance was about as
hard to envisage as a soul substance.
Gradually, with the help OF other
sciences, men began to get skeptical
about the mind. That too, was some
thing which seemed to defy definition.
And science is devoted to definition.
A new sort of subject matter was called
for.
During the present century the psy-
biologists who insisted on finding nat
ural causes for mental facts raised
new question. 1t is this: What do We
find?" The only answer was conduct
or behavior. These things. and they
only, can be observed. So psychology
found a new point of departure-be-
haviorism. Behavior is the recognized
substance of scientific psychology. Be
havior is concrete, tangible, measurable
and capable of being explained.

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

November 10, 1S64.-President Lin
coins reelection is made doubly sure by
later returns received in this city today
by the electric telegraph from States all
over the North.
The Republicans, or Union men, in
Washington have been holding meetings
of jubilation ever since the result of the
presidential election, held two days ago,
become unmistakable. Speakers at these
meetings have been expressing their
gratitude to the electorate for keeping
Lincoln in the presidential Office until
his policy of carrying on the war
against the Southern Confederacy is
carried to a successful conclusion, the
Union preserved, and peace is restored
to the stricken country.
Democrats favorable to Gen. McClel-
Ian, the defeated candidate of their
party for the presidency, held meeting
in Parker's Hall, and some of them
gathered on the street in front of the
hall later and amused themselves" by
cheering Mcclellan. No acts of violence
were committed by any of them.
One of the meetings of the Republi-
cans was held in the Republican rooms
on Ninth street. It was largely attended
Mr.. Clephane occupied the chair and
Mr. T. B. Brown acted as secretary.
More complete election returns. re-
ceived here from the States today, show
that Lincoln is certain of a majority of
from 1000 to 10000 in New York State,
and that the Northern States which
were reported yesterday as giving Lin
coin majorities are still in his column.
New York State will probably have a
House delegation consisting of 10 Demo-
Gratis and 81 Union men. which will be
gain of Z Union members. Three of
these new Representatives from the
Empire State have been elected in New
York City.
Gen. Mcclellan has carried Kentucky,
where his majority is estimated by the
Republican newspapers as about $4,000
and by Democratic organs at $4,000.
Returns from the voting of the Union
soldiers in the Army of the Potomac anG
the other Union armies farther West are
being rapidly tabulated. Some of them
have already been sent by electric tele-
graph to Washington. They indicate
that the Army has gone Overwhelmingly
in favor of President Lincoln.
