PREFERS ROBBER
TO PIOUS PARENT
Minnesota Professor’s Strik
ing Illustration at Interna
tional Eugenic Congress.
LONDON'. July 30. Professor Sam
uel G. Smith, of .Minnesota university,
at the International Eugenics congress,
declared one of tin futilities of prac
tical discussion was the supposition on
the part of some people that if tnarriagt
were made difficult tot the unfit the
rate* would be improved. But it must
b< remembered said Professor Smith,
that whenever marriage was made dif
ficult immorality iner.ased and that
maternity and mariiage were not syn
onymous.
Enlightened states hail agreed that
the feeble-minded, the insane and the
pauper must not be allowed to become
parents Where the mother and father
are botli feeble-minded, the child is
sun to be mentally deficient. The only
remedy, he said, was for the state to
restrain feeble-minded women. As long
as women loved strength and men
loved beauty and mating was upon
term.- of preference human instinct did
not go far wrong
"If I were to choose my own father,"
■aid Professor Smith, "I had rather
:a\< i robust burglar than a eonsump
ive bishop."
Society Suffers from Rich.
Society, he continued, suffered more
from the vices of the rich than the
vices of the poor. Man should not be
regarded as simply the highest mam
mal whose breed could be improved by
stock farm methods. What the world
owed to invalids would provide iittile
rial for one of the most remarkable
treatises ever written.
Referring to the phrase "criminal
born." Professor Smith said in Eng
land they knew what to do with these
people. If they sent them to America
they became founders of the first Vir
ginian families, or to Australia and
New Zealand, where they became prime
ministers.
Professor F. <'. S. Schiller, of Oxford
university, dealing with eugenics in ed
ucation. said is was being proved that
the present order of all civilized so
cieties. particularly our own, was rap
idly promoting degeneration of the hu
man race and not its improvement.
Nowadays, he contended, social contra,
selection offered manifest advantages
for the survival of the unfit, but the
point must come at which ancestral
virtues and inherited capital could not
longer Insure the survival of an effete
rave of folds am] weaklings.

DAZZLE PURITANICAL
NEW ENGLANDERS
BRETTON WOODS, N. H„ July 30
Stockings of pure gold—the fashion
announced from San Francisco —is a
I glittering fai t in puritanical New- Eng
land I
Miss Aline (lot ion, of New York, one
of tin fashionable young people at the
Mount Washington hotel, is the first to
bring the alchemlstlc innovation to
Bu tton Woods, but the excitement and
admiration which her golden stockings
have caused among the young and old
point to a rapid spread of the new hos
iery habit.
Thus far. Miss Gordon has worn two
pairs of tlie wonderful creations. The
Hist appearance was at. one of the
i weekly dances, when her descent of the
main stairway was marked by a pedal
glow that dazzled all the other guests.
The second pair—which appeared at
tin following dance—were not only of
golden texture, but were heavily bro
. ended with figures of a bird of Para
dise. It is said that gold -toekings are
considered a bargain at SIOO a pair, i
You can wear one pair two times— if
, you are lucky.

'ELECTRIC BRUIN'
TO STOP WRECKS
i “Fool-Proof” Locomotive Re
ceives Warnings of Danger
and Shuts Off Steam.
LONDON, July 30. — A "fool-proof”
locomotive is being experimented with
by A. R. Angus, of New South Wales,
at Watchet, Somersetshire.
There are no "up” and “down” dis
tance signals on the line. The engine
takes up electrical messages from the
rails as it travels along, and each lo
comotive has what might be called an
“electrical brain."
The mechanism of the locomotive will
determine for itself whether it is,safe
or not to enter each section of the jour
ney. If the section is not clear, the
driver receives a signal; and if he fails
to act on this the engine shuts off Its
own steam and applies the brakes, and
also,»by electrical communication, pre
vents any other train from approach
ing it too closely.
Expresses are expected to be able to
run at their limit of speed through
dense fogs, and be absolutely protected
from all risk of collision: and the train
is fully safeguarded, though the driver,
stoker and guard should all be inca
pacitated.
The system will also greatly reduce
running expenses.
